  • Bible Trivia: Babylon and the Exile

    Twelve questions on the empire that took Jerusalem, the deportations, and the return — including the parts where the biblical numbers disagree with each other.

  • Bible Trivia: Jerusalem

    Twelve questions on Jerusalem: who took it and when, why 597 BCE is a date and 587 is a dispute, and what the ground can and cannot tell us about the temple.

  • Lamentations

    Five poems, four of them acrostics, the third a triple acrostic and the fifth twenty-two lines without the alphabet. The form is the argument.

  • The Exile in Order

    Twenty-one readings covering the fall of Nineveh to the reading of the law in Jerusalem, arranged by when the events happened rather than by where the books are printed.
