Hassan Mousallm mousallm — “…evidence for significant same-sex eroticism in Israel actually precedes the evidence for Greece, in some cases, by several centuries. Hence, it appears that ancient Israel may have more of a claim to be a cultural home to same-sex eroticism than does ancient Greece.” Jacob’s Wound- Part 4 (pg. # 198) The Bible, whether you believe in it or not, is the book that has defined beliefs and morals in Western culture. While it has been a solace to many, it is also used as a hammer against many others. It has been used to support the concept of slavery, banish and execute those who disagreed with prevailing notions regarding it, as an excuse for war and as a curse against feminism, homosexuality and true diversity. I would also argue that it is anti-democracy, but that is another argument for another time. Paleographic and philological advances over the last half century, or so, have provided clearer and cleaner translation of the ancient Hebrew texts; archeological disciplines of all stripes have enhanced a more correct vision of the interchange between ancient middle-eastern cultures and people. Theodore W. Jennings, Jr., a Professor of Biblical and Constructive Theology at the Chicago Theological Seminary, has used these improved tools to re-examine the text of The Hebrew Scriptures. He presents a compelling notion that along with the accepted hetero-eroticism, the scriptures also provide a consistent and established presence of homoeroticism that later copyists and scribes attempted to erase. He re-examines the saga of Saul-David-Jonathan. He explores the prophets. He offers another view of the relationship, as written, between the Hebrews and their neighbors. He even touches on the possible homoerotic symbolism of the Ark of Covenant. It is a well-written scholarly effort without the pedantic air of self-righteousness that usually accompanies studies of this kind. I would recommend the book to especially any vehemently fundamental religionist of any faith, but I doubt any would/could give this work serious consideration. Serious consideration would be a stick of dynamite to the core of their conceit that only they have a patent on truth; no others need apply.

Marie-pier Larose _arie_ier_a_ose — I gave this four stars mainly because this book is packed full of useful information for those who suffer with migraines. It is not well written, and sometimes boring to read (I skimmed several parts that didn't apply to me), but it is helpful nonetheless. If you get migraines often, I highly recommend you read this book, or at very least skim through it to see if there is any information that is helpful to you. On a side note, acupuncture is spoken of in this book a few times, and Dr. Bernstein makes mention how it has helped several of her patients. After doing further research and discovering it's success rate, I decided to try acupuncture to see if it worked for me. I'm happy to say that after two months of twice weekly treatments, my migraines happen far less often, are less painful, and much easier to get rid of with medication. I continue to improve and hope that in the near future I am completely free of migraine pain.
