It's official I, within 4-14 business days, will have copies of Frye's and Frazer's books to help me read the Bible. I was able to find the cheap, used, paper back copies, totaling less than eight dollars from Amazon's online store.
After class the other day, and reading Alexa's blog I'm hopeful that these works will aid in making sense of the Bible as I read it this semester. I like the notion Alexa advocated in her recent post saying that collectively the Bible seems a mess of words with little coherent meaning. But by focusing on one book even one line it seems to become clear. This in a sense gives it a literal meaning one, again, I hope will come through via Frye and Frazer. Because after all that's the idea of this class to read the Bible like just another book.
