Weekend bibliophile fun! LOL

I'll bet it's been awhile, but you know the drill. Grab the nearest book, turn to page 23, and in the comments type in the fifth complete sentence. Then cite the book! :-)

"Both Ugaritic texts (1.45.1; 1.168.9) and biblical rituals (Leviticus 4-5) provide for divine forgiveness (*slh/*slh). -- from Mark S. Smith, The Early History of God: Yahweh and the Other Deities in Ancient Israel, 2d ed. (Grand Rapids: William B. Eerdmans, 2002).

Very cool. :-)

What's the fifth sentence on page 23 of *your* closest book?

It must be that I'm sitting down, because that comment went right over my head.

Ah. One of a couple small books I've kept out to keep from going through reading withdrawal during moving time. Actually, despite Troeltsch's clunky Teutonic prose (he knew it, too; called it "sailor's hardtack"), it is an interesting read - long essay really. Like much of Troeltsch's stuff, kind of overlooked anymore thanks to the neo-orthodox revolution, but still an important step in the process of cultural theological reflection.

How did I manage to miss this? I'm definitely behind on my blog reading. A bit late, but "By then most Astorians referred to the cannery as Union Fish." From Fins, Finns and Astorians by Greg Jacob (self-published, 2006). Why that book happens to be the one closest to where I'm sitting at the moment is a mystery.
