2015

HAPPY NEW YEAR to all those celebrating! Probably everybody.

Many of you have already seen this, but here's something just for fun.



Very clever, even though most biblical philologists have no problem with "liberals" or Finkelstein.

This one reminds me of this old song, The Scientific Man, which I learned as a nursery rhyme:

htt

The words of the chorus as I learned them were:

Oh he knew all about etymology,
Hebrew, Shebrew, Jubjubology;
Syntax, tintacks, hobnails, bootjacks.
He was full as a Pickford's Van.
Those who cracked and backed up Edison,
Swore his jaw was more than medicine,
Simply because, people said he was
A well-learned scientific man.

Best wishes for 2015 and, as always, keep reading PaleoJudaica.
