To Solidify Point 2. (a) 1 Samuel 20:30 NLT You Stupid Son Of A Whore! (b) 1 Samuel 20:30-31 MSG You

to solidify point 2. (a) 1 Samuel 20:30 NLT “You stupid son of a whore!” (b) 1 Samuel 20:30-31 MSG “You son of a slut!"

regardless: from the original hebrew, he means to imply that jonathan was stubborn from his mother's womb, not to insult his mother but to insult jonathan, as to disappoint your parents (or ancestors) was highly offensive.

all things considered, if we seriously want to make an accurate modern language translation "son of a bitch" is as accurate as it gets.

"none of those words are in the Bible" i mean 1. the Bible is originally hebrew and ancient greek and translation is inherently messy 2. "son of a perverse and rebellious woman"? he's saying son of a bitch 3. there is very much sex in the Bible. most of the people in the Bible were conceived via sex. not all, granted, but a vast majority

oh wow! in a shocking turn of events, she spent a few hours researching the human immune system and decided to fast for a few days.

because i can read and understand journal articles, i somehow think i’m qualified to take on board the evidence and ideas presented as factual, despite only being verisimilar or inconsequential

finding new interests... particularly in books and media, were you always there simmering under the surface? or are you merely a projection of my love for characters in foreign universes? does that make this merely temporary? does that make me shallow? does it matter anyway?

anyway. anagrams and trauma and criminology and memory studies and yearning and growth and change have been haunting my dreams... it has been quite pleasant.
