January 14th: Selections from the Book of Genesis

Cup continues to bring us their explorations into the authorship of the earliest parts of the Bible. This week we slow the onslaught of slides by doing more preliminary reading: Selections from the Book Of Genesis – 3-4 (pp.42-45), 11:1-9 (pp.52-53), 25:19-34 (pp.73), 27 (pp.75-76), 29 (pp.77-79), 30:1-24 (pp.79-80), 38 (pp.91-92), 42-45 (pp.96-100).

For convenience, the PDF page numbers are listed here.

December 17th: NRSVUE Bible

It was bound to happen eventually. And here it is! Our friend Cup is teaching some kind of Bible Studies class to us this coming Wednesday. BYO trauma and resentments! In preparation please read THE BIBLE. Namely, Genesis 48-49 (pp 103-106), Exodus 15 (pp 129-132), and Judges 4-5 (pp 389-393).

November 5th: Goethe’s Faust

We continue with our Faustian endeavor. If you weren’t present for earlier chapters – quite all right. Each section contains a lot of information, whether taken sequentially or not. This week we read from 311-387 (German pages optional). The present selection includes an excellent scene of brooding in the wilderness, and the long-awaited Walpurgisnacht.
