Once upon a time I worked in a factory to pay for my CS degree. I was promoted several times into engineering and then into engineering management. To switch back to my goal of a computer programming became expensive - upper end engineering salary vs mid level programmer. So I wrote code to automate engineering processes ("Expert System" if you will). Then one day I made an executive decision and made the career change and have been happier but poorer since.

May 17	comment	Are men (brethren) really men or are they human? So when it talks about "אַחִים" being priests, does that exclude females? I'll try to find a passage, but if you want to answer it as a "what if", you can.
May 10	comment	Psalm 51:5 CEV vs ESV "I have sinned and done wrong since the day..." My mom was in heat?
May 10	comment	Psalm 51:5 CEV vs ESV NVL says "from my very beginning". NCV says "gave birth to me". MSG says "conceive a new, true life". ERV "I left my mother’s womb". My question is more does "יחם" mean conceive as we know it today as @H3br3wHamm3r81 mentions. Also, is "יחם" the universal word used?
Mar 11	comment	Upon whom do we call? Reconciling OT & NT @Mike It's pretty common to have the lack of understanding that YHWH and Adonai are the same. After all Yeshua was the incarnation of the logos which isn't exactly the same as saying that he was the incarnation of YHWH. Especially if you're JW (christiananswers.net/q-acb/acb-r001.html). However this is border line a theological question and not a hermeneutic question.
Mar 11	comment	Bart D. Ehrman - respected critic? If the ever living God is just that, living and thus changing, I wonder if the book attributed to him should be as well. Therefore, it's not the inerrant state of the text within the Bible but the infallibility of the morals of the stories.
Dec 14	comment	What does the word הַסִּרְפַּד mean? Mike, great answer. I didn't know your skills in hermeneutics was so good!
Nov 16	comment	What's wrong with cooking a kid in its mother's milk? Figure of speak or saying at that time what was popular?
Nov 7	comment	Ezekiel 44:5 Mark Well That's always been a battle for me. How to contend with literalists in both the translation and usage. Do you have a pronunciation key for Hebrew words?
Nov 7	comment	Ezekiel 44:5 Mark Well So then... neither translation is exact :)
Oct 5	comment	Exodus 20:5 - Jealous Speaking about idols... check out this question: christianity.stackexchange.com/questions/5412/…
Aug 13	comment	Bart D. Ehrman - respected critic? The concern is in his approach / ability not just his stance on Christianity?
Jun 29	comment	Is oral history like the telephone game? One thing that we forget to realize is that Oral Tradition does not mean that NOTHING was written. There could have been an outline or notes read. But the stories were spread from one voice to many ears.
Jun 3	comment	What does “made him to be sin” mean? I was afraid to ask for the meaning as that leads to opinions. I am looking for possibilities. However at this point, I'd be happy with anything :D
Mar 13	comment	Who did Cain marry? I find answers too questions like this here
Feb 27	comment	Was Moses the probable author of Genesis? @FrankLuke why would you stop at saying that only the last chapter was added? Do you have some empirical information? You have to be careful when you say that something was edited / added, where would it stop?
Feb 27	comment	Was Moses the probable author of Genesis? I suppose Moses wrote "his" last book which described his death? Agreed that Moses has been attributed as the author. However, if Moses wrote it, it was more likely to be in Egyptian hieroglyphs than Hebrew.
Feb 26	comment	Was Moses the probable author of Genesis? In "author" do you mean the person who came up with the story or wrote it down? Either way, I'm not sure how anyone could be certain.
