MA Bibliography (and a short posting)

This is going to be a rather odd posting, as mostly its going to be a bibliography. But first yesterday was a nice day it had a really Shabbat like feeling, kind of like being back in Jlem. Partly this may have simply been down to the weather which was kind of like Israel very warm and muggy.  But it was also that on my walk to synagogue, and just by chance the people I met where on their way to synagogue as well. So it was nice to exchange greetings of 'Shabbat Shalom', even as I left the flat I hadn't decided which shul I was going to.  In the end I opted for FPS.  It was a really nice services and I got to have a very pleasant chat with Kathy who was there as well.  Its been ages since we have run into each other.

Then it was back to the flat for a meal I'd cooked, I really must get back into the habit of cooking more. The next day I went back to FPS, Rene was leading and again it was a very pleasant service.

Next week we have Kol Bo., and I still have one or two big things on but apart from that I am so much less busy than I was until recently.

This brings me to the bibliography.  I have updated my MA bibliography which was entitled, "Incest in the Ancestry of David: A Combined reading of Genesis 19, Genesis 38 and the Book of Ruth''.

I think that its a pretty good thesis and the bibliography is I think useful to others researching in this area so I wanted to put it on line and via my blog seemed like the easiest way of so doing.
