Sounds like an interesting book. Als...Hey Scarlet,<br /><br />Sounds like an interesting book. Also, thank you for the compliment. I just started on 3 months of internal medicine. Thankfully, the hospital I'm working at for the next month is right across the street from my apartment. The degree I was working on at Asbury Seminary was an M.A.T.S. - Master of Arts in Theological Studies. Unfortunately I was just a few classes short of finishing when I left for med school. During my first year of med school I actually took an online class through the seminary with the hopes of finishing my degree but I decided that it wasn't right for me to divert my energies away from my study of medicine. But maybe I'll finish it up someday. The M.A.T.S. is a smaller degree than an M.Div. and is geared toward students who want to go on and get a Ph.D. in theology which was originally what I thought I might want to do.<br /><br />Have a great week!<br /><br />MattMatthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06529046356895711706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6357491412347234783.post-5603924864958672022010-04-12T19:34:52.028-07:002010-04-12T19:34:52.028-07:00Hi Matt,
Once a bookseller, always a bookseller, ...Hi Matt,<br /><br />Once a bookseller, always a bookseller, eh?<br /><br />I personally find Numbers to be the most difficult part of the Pentateuch. Leviticus' health regulations and purification laws are actually pretty interesting. Or maybe I'm just a geek... <br /><br />I've been reading "Brunelleschi's Dome" by Ross King, which mentions that some Bishops in 15th Century Florence were protesting having so many bodies buried in the cathedrals, arguing that whenever the plague came through the homes nearest the church were hit first. <br /><br />But Sailhamer's book does sound intriguing, who among us doesn't want some extra help with the OT? <br /><br />Random question for Monday:<br />What is your Theology degree in?<br /><br />S.P.<br /><br />P.S. <br />I was working with a particularly sharp resident today, and thought of you. I hope your clinicals are going well.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
