123 Meme
I was tagged by Pr. Mason Beecroft for this excercise:
Turn to page 123 of the book nearest to you.
Count the first five sentences.
Post the next three.
Fortunately I’m at church, so I won’t have to pick up the books lying around the house, like a Pearls Before Swine comic treasury or the NFL rule book or records book. That would just be embarrassing.
I’m excluding the four books closest to me: Biblia Hebraica [Hebrew Bible], the Treasury of Daily Prayer, Lutheran Service Book, and a KJV. But the last book in that stack right by my computer (all books from yesterday’s Scripture Study) is this:
He then proceeds to another metaphor, “or like a moth-eaten garment.” [Chapter Fourteen] “A mortal being, born of a woman” (v. 1). Then also from his birth “full of wrath,” that is, of discontent, not of grief.
St. John Chrysostom: Commentaries on the Sages: Volume One, Commentary on Job. Translated by Robert Charles Hill. Holy Cross Orthodox Press, Brookline, Mass. 2006.
I will tag Todd Peperkorn and Glenda Mumme.
