Evening Prayer


For Psalm 19, Prof. Calvin speaks again of David’s love for the Scriptures.

ISBE on the dating of Exodus: Prof. R. K. Harrison comments on Pi-ramses, stratigraphic data, the 21st dynasty and the impossibility of the Exodus in this period.

For Genesis 3.17-19: Prof. Keil comments on the individual corporate character of Eve’s seed and the Snake’s seed.

For Judges 1.8-15, Prof. Keil comments on geography and areas hit by the forays of Judah and Simeon.

For Isaiah 7.17-25, Prof. Henry comments on God using Assyria as an instrument of judgment against Syria and Israel’s king.

ISBE on Mark: Dr. R. P. Martin offers the obvious on Mark’s theology: Kingdom of God and Christology.

For Mathew 5.33-37, Prof. Jamieson comments on Jesus’s remarks about oaths, swearing and letting your yes be yes and your no no.

For Romans 3.21-31, Prof. Hodge further addresses hilasteriov and propitiation.

For Revelation 17.14-18, Prof. Henry comments on the War. The Lamb or Jesus is the winner.

EDT on the Theological Liberalism: little is offered at this point in the attempt to show how the dogmatists have “redefined” classical doctrines. He author simply failed at this point.

Westminster Theological Journal (Nov 2021) on “Theological Consequences of Q”: Dr. Dawson comments on the three competing views with the persistence of the 2HD as dominant. Often, scholars will claim they side “with most NT scholars.” But, Stanley Porter says “most NT scholars” is unclear, to wit, did they most simply side with the “majority and/or accept what they were taught by their Professors?” Hilarious, but true. One is reminded of the jibe about Hegel’s school: a few were intelligent students, many were shallow imitators, and many were empty-headed followers singing lyrical measures of Hegel.” Hilarious, sorta like the Graffie and the sycophants, e.g., Charles Briggs. Dr. Dawson will continue the survey of Synoptic research from 2000-2021—the leaders and the lackeys.

In the Global Anglican, Philip Keen is doing the techno-jumbo, wonky statistics game on who preaches what in the 5 Anglican churches. What gets preached and what doesn’t get preached? In search of an analysis of “preaching the whole counsel of God.” This much: Rev. Keen has put the question on the agenda for consideration.

For Systematic Theology (locus 2), Prof. Hodge continues on the Quakers, giving Barclay’s views as a mix of orthodox and heterodox theology.

For Theology Proper (locus 2), Prof. Reymond concludes, gloriously, his exegesis of Romans 1.3-4 and begins Romans 9.5. Masterful.
