Paperless bliss
Well it's done. I turned in my last paper for this semester. It was a 15 page exegesis paper of Hosea 11:1-11. As much as I enjoyed reading about and engaging the text, I am glad to be done with it. Writing a paper like that takes so much out of a person. For weeks you will read and read and read; and then read some more. For weeks you will think and write. Then there is always the need to figure out how to translate the text. And when you have a passage that is textually corrupt (like mine), that task is even harder. Needless to say it was a good experience but I'm glad it's over. I just wanted to share my happiness. All I have left for the semester is translating Pss. 48, 50 and 84. I also need to read more but that's never-ending. Next semester's classes: Hebrew, Syriac, and German.
