Don’t mention it, it’s what I learned in class. Sharing the knowledge is my goal in life. I post my notes online too if you ever want to poke through them. (http://community.livejournal.com/religion_101/ Notes are locked though so I can keep track of who’s reading them. Don’t want my professors to get angry at me for some reason, although I know my Bible professor posts his powerpoints online. Then again, Professor Watts also has a blog which freaks the hell out of me.)

Thankyou for that, Meg, that’s actually a cooler explanation than mine.

I want to make her sit in my Bible class for one friggin lecture and then beat her with my copy of the Tanakh. Or let my Bible professor (who is insanely awesome) do it.

My brain just FARTED from the amount of stupid. Also, the suffering servant poems in Isaiah are directed at anyone who leads Israel at the time of the Persian rule, as the messianiac idea began to shift and the belief was that God could act through any ruler, not JUST one of Davidic descent.
