	Creating Biblical Figures - By Thomas L. Thompson
		In the biblical use of this tradition, metaphorical continuity with ancient Near Eastern texts is so marked that one can well identify Thutmosis III as a clear predecessor of the saving messianic role of the Bible’s holy war narratives.
		In the closing chapter of this section, I reconsider the theme of life’s victory over death through the perspective of the related themes of "new wine" and "blood of the covenant," as each is intimately connected to the fertility myth of the dying and rising god, from Tammuz and Ba’al to Dionysus.
		After examining the figures of prophets and kings in the long narrative about David and his sons as part of a never-ending story of failure, I briefly sketch the integration of the David story with the figure of the messiah in the Psalter.

	Figures of Speech
		These same figures of speech sound quite strange to a person whose second language is English, and does not know the meaning of our English figures of speech.
		If someone centuries down the road was to read the American figure of speech, "Are you down with that?," and interpret this in a spatial fashion, rather than the actual cultural meaning of "Are you OK with that?," they are misinterpreting the statement.
		Figurative language like this is not to be taken as literal descriptions of God’s appearance (seeing He is a spirit), but is a literary device used to communicate a reality about God’s person.

	Medical Job Openings -- Recommendations and Resources (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		The numerous Exegeses of the ''Book of Job'' are classic attempts to reconcile the co-existence of evil and God (in Greek, these justifications are known as ''theodicies'').
		''Job'' appears both as an invocation to righteousness, a cynical outlook on the idea of righteousness, and a response to the problem of evil.
		In contrast, secular examinations of the text more generally conclude that, though archaic features such as the "council in heaven" survive, and though the Job legend was familiar to Ezekiel, the present form of the Job tale was fixed in the 4th century BCE.

	FIRST PERSON: Open theists, meet Job - (BP) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		If any biblical figure had the "right" to challenge God's character in the face of the problem of evil, it was Job.
		Further, God praises Job's response and condemns Job's friends because of their false testimony about His character (42:7), commanding them to offer a sacrifice to Him and to have Job pray for them (42:8).
