Bits & Tidbits, 10/13/2008

• Ben Witherington has a very good guide to basic principles of hermeneutics (the study of the study of the Bible-- no, I didn’t stutter). Worth reading. (HT: John Allen)
• Who says Latin is dead? (Of course, I’ve known this for years, as I taught for six years at a school that offered Latin.)
• In case you don’t know, Zondervan books has a very good blog with regular posts from their most-known authors. My favorites are Mondays with Mounce (Biblical Greek insight from William Mounce, author of a popular seminary Greek text) and Hebrew Corner (from John Walton, an Old Testament professor and Hebrew scholar).
• What do you do with poo? Some creative conservationists in Asia and Europe have some good ideas.
• The Internet Monk has an interesting discussion, asking the question, “is it a sin to be a stay-at-home dad?”
• Too funny: the battle of the church signs.
• For those who are interested: Marcie has started a blog.
