A Day at the Library

Well, I've been moving forward on my term paper. Tentatively, I'm going to do an exegesis paper on Romans 7.7-25...tentatively. I think I've cleared out Regent Library of all its good commentaries on Romans 1-8. Oh, and I realized just how much of my year of Greek I have forgotten this summer. That isn't good, I have a month to get it all back before Hellenistic Greek starts (probably only giving us a minimal review period).

In other news, I picked up a couple books to read in continuation of my two off-topic interests: the diversity within the New Testament, and how the New Testament is authoritative for Christian life and faith. The two books:

Dunn, James D.G. Unity and Diversity in the New Testament: An Inquiry into the Character of Earliest Christianity. 2nd Ed. 1990.

New Testament Theology in Dialogue. Edited by James D.G. Dunn and James P. Mackey. 1987.

Both look like they're going to be interesting reads. Maybe I'll post some thoughts I have as I go through them.
