Querido estudiante de la Biblia en Twitter: No tienes que ser parte de cada hilo/discusión/debate. Especialmente, si es un área que no dominas. Está bien darse el espacio para aprender, en humildad y en silencio. Está bien esperar. El conocimiento toma tiempo.

Publication day! The world doesn’t need another essay on the “Son of Man”… except for this one. In the latest issue of the Journal of Theological Studies: “The Son of Man as Corporate Figure in Early Jewish and Christian Tradition” (doi.org/10.1093/jts/flag039)

Hablan de la necesidad de investigación y datos, pero no apoyan a los que investigan (y no me refiero a fondos). Pareciera que estamos comprometidos con que nuestras opiniones sean lo único que existe acerca de un tema, y que todo sea “al ojo por ciento”.

Happy to announce I built a Greek/English reader site with all the surviving plays of Aeschylus, Sophocles, Euripides, & Aristophanes. Multiple translations for each play; click to parse & define for any Greek word; full Greek & English search. greekdrama.johnhboyer.com

Publicar en instagram es tan raro. Lo que menos tu crees es es lo que genera más engagement, y a veces el post que quieres que la gente lea, lo ven 3 gatos 🤣

After 25 years in 1 pulpit, what would I tell a young preacher? A 🧵(in no particular order): 1) Ignore the numbers and connect with your people. Don’t obsess about growth. Don’t apologize for who isn’t there when your friends visit. Minister to what’s in front of you. 👇 1/11

Three sets of compound words (syn-) in Ephesians. Because Christ was raised (1:20), we are (1) co-raised w/him and (2) co-built together into a dwelling for God. The third set is a tight-clustered inward intensification in the key of mystery, rather than new content.

En estas semanas, investigadores en estudios religiosos/teo/bíblicos están leyendo, escribiendo o terminando ponencias para conferencias (ETS/SBL/AAR, etc.). ¿Podrías orar x eso? Por claridad. Por sabiduría mientras atendemos otras prioridades de vida. Por enfoque y paciencia.

Researchers in religion/theo/biblical studies are using these weeks to read for, write or finish conference papers (ETS/SBL/AAR, etc.). That can be a prayer request. We pray for clarity. We pray for wisdom as we accommodate other life priorities. We pray for focus & patience.

I’ve been reading a lot of literary theory for my PhD. It still amazes me how poetically people describe functions of language and texts without providing evidence/methods. At the same time, I’m reminded that… I’m reading literary theory🤷🏻‍♂️ I’m… just grateful I understand😅

In English teaching, we used “exit tickets.” These are prompted, reflective writing exercises asked from students at the end of the lesson. Students can correct/exchange each other’s and it can be cumulative low-grade assessment.
I would love to hear from teachers: What assignments have worked well for you in light of the rise of AI? I’ve been on sabbatical this Fall and return to teaching in the Spring. I typically have students write 2-page reflections on our readings (in the humanities), but I worry these are now too easy to complete with AI. I’ve considered handwritten or oral assignments, but I’m open to other ideas. What’s worked for you?
