Blogging on the Book of Job

Dave Beldman maintains an excellent blog entitled Tolle lege. He does a lot of that, and it shows. He is currently blogging on the book of Job. You will enjoy his first two posts.

Little gems are scattered throughout the blog’s archive. Dave might help us by indexing the contents of his blog (too much like work, I know). Here is an example:

For better or worse, these are the things I love: anticipating new beginnings; biblical theology; bird watching; the book of Psalms; bookstores (especially used bookstores); children; cigars; classic novels (especially sad stories for some reason); the comfort of belonging to Christ; a day at the beach; entertaining guests in our home; European cathedrals; a good intellectual debate with people I know well (and who are not prone to take offence); jeans and sweaters; Job 28; long nature walks; long naps; the migrant worker outreach which I am involved in during the summer; morning coffee; motorcycles (a love from my teenage years which I can’t shake); my academic endeavors; my church; my family—wife, daughter, son; old people; Psalms 32 and 139; random acts of kindness; research; Reformed theology; service singing (around the house, at church, in the shower, car, etc.); solitude; sweets; U2 (especially the vision of the world which comes out in there music—yes, I am a recent convert); the university atmosphere; watching my kids sleep; weekends with family; working with my hands (electrical work [I'm an electrician] or woodworking); the Wisdom Books of the Bible.

Dave’s use of alphabetical order is serendipitous, is it not?

I have a poetic workup of Job 28 near completion. Now I know if I finish it and post it, someone with whom I have a lot in common will take a close look at it.
