The Misunderstood Jew | Amy-Jill Levine

Pickpick

This was my first intro to Amy-Jill Levine, and I‘m definitely planning to read more from her. How can you not read on when the intro begins with the sentence: “When I was a child, my ambition was to be pope.” 😂 This, from a Jewish New Testament scholar.

Levine offers a fresh, much-needed perspective on Jesus and his New Testament context. She emphasizes that Christians tend to interpret the New Testament solely through the context of the ⤵️

BarbaraJean (Cont‘d) Old Testament, which results in an inaccurate & mistaken picture of what first-century Judaism actually looked like—and often leads to projecting anti-Semitic views onto the text & out into the world. Her writing is accessible & approachable, and although I found her characterization of the Apostle Paul a little harsh, she makes a powerful case for careful study of the historical context as well as for a more robust interfaith dialogue. 2mo
TheBookHippie I wanted to be a nun 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 2mo
BarbaraJean @TheBookHippie 😂😂 Reminds me of Anastasia Krupnik and her desire to be a Catholic because of the fancy white confirmation dress 😆 Levine said some of her attraction to the position was that she really liked the pope‘s hat 🤣 2mo

Graywacke Sounds fantastic. And @TheBookHippie - that‘s hysterical. 2mo
TheBookHippie @Graywacke I blame Audrey Hepburn and the nuns I saw in the city looking so chic in my 8 year old brain 🤣 2mo
BarbaraJean @TheBookHippie Who knew that Catholic fashion would be so enticing?! 😂 2mo
TheBookHippie @BarbaraJean 😂😵‍💫😂😅🤷🏻‍♀️ 2mo
marleed I really wanted to be the flying nun specifically Sally Field as the Flying Nun. Imagine my disappointment when I learned as an adult that Sally hated that role 🤣🤣🤣 2mo
BarbaraJean @marleed 😂😂 Adulthood brings so many disappointments!! 2mo

Mehso-so

This was an interesting, enjoyable, quick read. There were a handful of debunked claims asserted about both the Bible and Pagan holidays. Townsend also limited his Pagan contributors and interviewees to those who are Wicca- and/or Druidry-aligned. I would have liked to hear from the voices of many other Paganisms.

Circle 31 Book Club has chosen a perfect read for September. I need the reminders from the author to seek patience and slow down all while focusing my trust in Jesus. 👑
