Theology

- "In a doxological fashion, the psalms testify to the primordial truth of the entire biblical tradition. Negatively put, we are not condemned to complete autonomy. Positively put, we come out from God; we are sustained by God; and our proper destiny is to be with God."
-
"On the
Meaning of
קשת
נחושה," Aron Pinker, Journal of Hebrew Scriptures, 2005.
- "Iconographic evidence and textual analysis is used to support the notion that קשת נחושה in 2 Sam 22:35 = Ps 18:35 and Job 20:24 is a double-convex bow."
