Lemme tell ya about the hundreds of really dry books I slogged through to capture the necessary facts and data! Some days, it was TORTURE. Of course, many other days, it was pure pleasure. I love to read biblical scholars arguing and tearing each other's ideas apart... better than tennis, for sure!
Anyway, it might be a bit of a slog in some places, but stay tuned and alert for the fun parts. There's just something about biblical studies that brings out the sarcasm in me sometimes and I get pretty snarky here and there. I edited out SOME of the snark, but believe me, I left enough for a few LOLs.
