the superiority of pre-critical exegesis

It is 8:16 AM Wednesday morning here in West Michigan. It is a clear sky day. I am thankful it is not snowing or raining today.

I got up this morning around 6:15 AM. I got up ate something while messing with our main computer. After messing with our main computer I made a fresh pot of coffee and then wrote in my paper diary. Now I am writing in my online diaries.

I have no plans for the day ahead of me. Yesterday I basically spent the day reading these books on the Epistle to the Hebrews/New Testament/the Bible-

'God has Spoken in his Son: A biblical theology of Hebrews' by Peter T. O'Brien

'The Letter To The Hebrews' [The Pillar New Testament Commentary] by Peter T. O'Brien

'Commentary On Hebrews' by Thomas R. Schreiner [Biblical Theology For Christian Proclamation]

'Hebrews' [The Anchor Bible] by Craig R. Koester

'Hebrews, James' New Testament XIII [Reformation Commentary On Scripture] Edited By Ronald K. Rittgers

Last night before going to bed I read some more of the novel 'Blindness' by Henry Green.

I do not have anything new to write so I will close to drift through the day. Existence keeps speeding by!

"[1] God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,
[2] Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;
[3] Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;
[4] Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they." Hebrews 1:1-4
