Very insightful commentary, illuminating the larger theme of housekeeping in ways I hadn't previously considered. Robinson's prose style is very beautiful, her work clearly rewarding regardless of whether the reader shares the author's religious convictions.
Hey just curious about the Harvard required reading list. I tried googling for some kind of harvard required reading list and didn't find any kind of mention of those books. I found some kind of open syllabus website which i guess listed some kind of popularity of top 10 books that harvard and mit students seemingly had to read or something. I didn't really find any mention of a required reading list even existing at least in the form that i was expecting, something like: "at harvard all majors are assigned to read these x books". Do you have a reference to this required reading list?
Caleb, I love your channel. Have you ever read "Genesis Unbound" by John Sailhamer? I think it would be up your alley. The premise is that Gen 1:1 describes the creation of the entire universe, and then for the rest of the chapter the "earth" is actually about the "eretz," or Promised Land. So the 6 days of creation are literal days, but they pertain to the creation of the Promised Land where man will dwell. For instance, v.2 (ESV)- "The earth was without form and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters"- would be interpreted as the Promised Land being completely underwater. Then God works to create the Land into a place suitable for humans.
Thank you for taking the time to make this video.
