					<description><![CDATA[So, a while ago, Ben Zvanwas talking about doing something with the Bible, which would involve processing the text through some filters and recompiling it. This sort of thing has always interested me: Not recompiling the bible, but rather, textual analysis in general using the basic material stripped of intended meaning by classifying and ordering &#8230; <a href="https://gregladen.com/blog/2010/06/21/puting-exodus-into-words-the-s/" class="more-link">Continue reading <span class="screen-reader-text">Putting Exodus into Words: The sed Bible Translation Project</span> <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[In Genesis 4, we see specific reference to herdsmen and farmers as distinct groups, represented by Abel and Cain, respectively. God indicates a preference for the results of herding over planting, and the sibling troubles that ensue result in the world becoming a difficult place to farm, and humans becoming more nomadic, as herders.

					<description><![CDATA[Genesis 2 ends with Adam and Eve being naked yet not ashamed. In Genesis 3, the Serpent, who is wiser than average, tricks Eve into partaking of the forbidden fruit of one of god&#8217;s two magic trees. This results in Adam and Eve recognizing their own nakedness, and compelling them to produce the first clothing. &#8230; <a href="https://gregladen.com/blog/2009/02/13/the-bible-as-ethnography-03-so-1/" class="more-link">Continue reading <span class="screen-reader-text">The Bible as Ethnography ~ 03 ~  Sometimes a Snake is Just a Snake.

					<description><![CDATA[Genesis 1 and Genesis 2 (5 &#8211; 25) are distinctly different and contradictory origin stories. The biblical origin story represented in this text has long been known to resemble a set of Sumerian stories that mainly deal with a multitude of gods interacting (some of these gods are converted to humans in the biblical version). &#8230; <a href="https://gregladen.com/blog/2009/02/12/the-bible-as-ethnography-02-in-1/" class="more-link">Continue reading <span class="screen-reader-text">The Bible as Ethnography ~ 02 ~ In The Beginning&#8230;</span> <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[As a child in Catholic school, and later in public school and being sent off to &#8220;release time&#8221; religious instruction, I had the opportunity to read most of the Old and New Testaments of the standard bible. Later, in junior high school, I became interested in comparative religion, and read it all again, together with &#8230; <a href="https://gregladen.com/blog/2009/02/11/the-bible-as-ethnography-01-in-1/" class="more-link">Continue reading <span class="screen-reader-text">The Bible as Ethnography ~ 01 ~ Introduction</span> <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>
