hebrew thursday: genesis 2:4 – 2:25
Hebrew Thursday completely slipped my mind yesterday. I’ve made it an iron-clad rule that running this blog must not interfere with my non-internet life. So if some friends want to hang out and talk politics, no Hebrew Thursday. I spend a lot of time working on internet stuff, but I simply will not have it [...]
