Evidence of the Red Sea Crossing, Truth or Fiction?
I was looking at some videos online and came across this portrayal of the famous Red Sea crossing by our hero, Moses. This video tries to prove this story actually took place. Evidence found in the video to support this claim intrigued me....watch the video and see what you think!
P.S. After watching this video, one will have a perfect and complete understanding of this famous biblical tale. Enjoy.

Women in the Bible
My Notes from Thursday's lecture on Women in the Bible:
God...
-created the heavens, the Earth, animals, landmarks, etc...
-pulling a rib out of Adam symbolizes the taking away of femininity
Eve- The Mother of all living
Gender: Who plays the role of the masculine?
The feminine seems to interfere
Ex) 2 men in a brawl, if the wife of one of the men grabs the opponents 'genitals' her hand would be cut off.
Levite: Judges 19:
-Rules of hospitality are the same as the rules of gender
-Protecting his guests (property of the Levite-women/concubine) of all costs
*The wrong was done to the Levite-not the woman (even though she was butchered and her limbs sent to all the territories of Israel)
Testicles...testaments =cognates!!
Cultic Purity: How to worship and how to do it correctly
Questions about the Bible (For Thursday's Quiz):
1.) Who wrote the Bible?
A.) God used men to write the Bible and had them say exactly what he wanted
