Bible update

There is a really neat book that is helping me. It is called How to Read the Bible by James Kugel.

"After six days--God rested on the seventh day--the first sabbath rest in history. Most people are so used to this account that they scarcely see the powerful assertion underlying it: our world is fundamentally God's world--everything in it, including ourselves, was made by Him. To say this is more than to report on the origin of things: it is to set out a whole way of perceiving."
