  2. Van Doren—Presbyterian, commenting on the Good Samaritan—makes an observation of devastating simplicity. The Samaritan did not assess nationality before acting. He saw a man lying in his own blood. That was sufficient information. One notes we have developed elaborate frameworks for determining whether persons of various categories merit assistance before proceeding. The Samaritan apparently skipped that step. It seems not to have occurred to him.

  4. Actually it turns out that he vs. heth is the most common letter confusion in #Samaritan #Genesis. That surprises me, but I've found twenty such confusions among proper names. I suspect the lack of pronunciation difference helps.

  7. I'm perhaps a little obsessed with foreign names in the #HebrewBible, and this morning I was looking at Joseph's Egyptian name in #Genesis 41:45: צָֽפְנַ֣ת פַּעְנֵחַ֒ (Zofnath-pa'neah). In #Samaritan Pentateuch the second word is often פענה and the first is צפנתי or צפינתי. (Images: Cambr. Add. 1846 f. 41b)

    Adding or subtracting a yod is very easy in Hebrew square script (modern script), but as the images show, the yod is a big letter in Samaritan (and Paleo-Hebrew).

    For generations, the #Samaritan woman in #John4 has been misrepresented as an #adulteress — a “fallen” woman that Jesus had to shame before saving. But what if we’ve been reading it wrong?

  12. The story shows a Samaritan aiding an Israelite, against all expectations. This act challenges preconceived notions and highlights compassion's importance. We uncover the surprising twist and its implications. #Samaritan #Israelite #Compassion #UnexpectedHelp #BiblicalStory #MoralLesson #Kindness #Community #HelpingHands #Faith

  26. I'm always a bit weirded out by the non-profit group in the UK, the "Samaritans", when as far as I can tell, no Samaritan is involved with them, not a single one.

    Imagine that with another group, "The Kurds" or "The Jews", or "The Japanese".

    It's so weird and creepy...

  27. 1. The inscription is definitely in #Samaritan script, not #Paleo-Hebrew. Check out this table from Dan Barag, 'Samaritan Writing and Writings', in Cotton et al., "From Hellenism to Islam" (2009; CUP). A is early Paleo-Hebrew/Phoenician, B–C are Paleo-Hebrew from 1st and 2nd c. coins, D is Sam. 2/12

  28. Timothy Dwight was Aaron Burr’s cousin. Piety is the first virtue of being saved. But no one loves God who doesn’t love others and control their appetites.

    When the left attacks the very basis of Christianity on the basis of examples of unlovingness, does the church today too often defend the unlovingness itself as somehow not that bad, and none of our business?

    How can you live out a virtuous character?
