Spring Schedule & Chat
It's spring... well, almost!
Here's a peek at our schedule of Psalm study for the weeks ahead!
As you volunteer I will edit this post accordingly. You can volunteer for 1 week, or 2 weeks in sequence depending on whether your chosen Psalm is short or long, or if you are leading 2 or 3 sequential Psalms.
For your information, here are the Psalms we've already covered, or have on the schedule:
1, 9, 10, 15, 16, 19, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 42, 43, 46, 50, 51, 71, 91, 100, 111, 119, 121, 122, 137, 139, 144
You may not choose to repeat one of the above Psalms, unless it is listed as "volunteer needed". All others are still options!
If a Psalm is scheduled for only 1 week, you may volunteer to do a week 2 immediately following week 1 if the schedule is still open for that.

Honestly, the little I've studied has set my mind at rest concerning difficult scriptures that have caused bondage in my own family & denominational history. I no longer have to wonder why God would require some pretty strange practices or impose some heavy burdens that have been a struggle for thousands, maybe millions of people. Some of those boring laws might actually be informative or helpful in discerning the purpose behind confusing scriptures.
I will likely continue to dip into these matters by continuing to visit & get email updates from the "My Jewish Learning" famiy of sites. It's easily digested & throws light on current Jewish culture as well as ancient times.
Doug, I have you to thank for piquing my intetest. I could tell you enjoyed studying it, but were not in bondage to it, as are some others I know. You haven't adopted a foreign sounding Jewish name or judged anyone for not keeping Jewish law at least that I am aware of, anyway!
If you do decide to take a new name, we all get to make suggestions and vote on it.
I don't suppose Digby or Digory would qualify. That's too bad. They both reek of scrolls hidden in caves, archeological digs & musty libraries.
Any suggestions, gang?
