  11. 2/10 Meet The Yahwist (J), from 950 BCE. J is the master storyteller, using the name "Yahweh" for a very human-like God who walks in gardens and sews clothes. J’s tales are earthy, vivid, and focused on the patriarchs. When you read about the Garden of Eden or the colorful drama of Abraham, you’re likely reading J's handiwork. It’s the raw, ancient heart of the narrative, full of grit and personality. 🏺✨ #AncientTexts

  15. The gold medal for deception: How a professor created an international award out of thin air.

    In 2016, Florent Montaclair stepped into the spotlight when he received the Gold Medal of Philology, a sort of Nobel Prize for the discipline.

    In fact, the award was created by Montaclair himself. It took an investigation by Romanian journalists to uncover this hoax, which is now the subject of a judicial inquiry in France.

  20. Came across this article from 2020 that I bookmarked...

    #AncientTexts encouraged hope and endurance when they spoke of #EndTimes

    Published: April 13, 2020

    "Other apocalyptic texts, such as the #Sibylline #Oracles, describe poetically a coming light, a 'life without care,' and a time when the 'earth will belong equally to all.' "

    For those not familiar with the #SibylineOracles, this from Encyclopedia Britainnica:

    "Sibylline Oracles, collection of oracular prophecies in which Jewish or Christian doctrines were allegedly confirmed by a sibyl (legendary Greek prophetess); the prophecies were actually the work of certain Jewish and Christian writers from about 150 bc to about ad 180."
