		<title>How to Find Reliable (Academic) Sources of Information</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When I first entered the world of religious higher education, I had no idea where to find reliable sources for the papers I was writing. The study tools most commonly used by laymen&#8211;study Bibles, concordances, etc.&#8211;were not enough; my professors &#8230; <a href="http://www.hopeabbey.com/?p=792">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>Christian Disputes Which Messianic Judaism Can Solve</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A lot of Christians have kind of a &#8220;so what&#8221; attitude toward the Hebrew Roots movement and Messianic Judaism. This movement is perceived at times as superficial, unnecessary, etc. Many times Messianic Jews are pressured into conforming to standard Christian &#8230; <a href="http://www.hopeabbey.com/?p=784">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>A graduate-level paper on Hebrews and Supersessionism</title>

I recently submitted the following paper to my university for a 600-level class on &#8230; <a href="http://www.hopeabbey.com/?p=781">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>Easily Disprovable Hebrew Roots Myths #1: Why James, not Jacob?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One of the more interesting HR myths I have seen crop up again and again is the intimation that modern English bibles transliterate the Greek Iakobos (Jacob) as James because King James, who directed the completion of the 1611 King &#8230; <a href="http://www.hopeabbey.com/?p=779">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>Failure Complex</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Messianic world suffers, at times, from what I call a &#8220;failure complex,&#8221; &#8220;complex&#8221; meaning &#8220;a group of mental factors that are unconsciously associated by the individual with a particular subject and influence the individual&#8217;s attitude and behavior&#8221; (thanks, Wikipedia). &#8230; <a href="http://www.hopeabbey.com/?p=771">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>Aaron Eby – Biblically Kosher</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Aaron Eby&#8217;s new book Biblically Kosher hasn&#8217;t received much fanfare. A Google search for the book&#8217;s title currently brings up a few relevant pages, as well as a bunch of sites contrasting &#8220;Biblical Kosher&#8221; with &#8220;Rabbinic Kosher.&#8221; This, I am &#8230; <a href="http://www.hopeabbey.com/?p=767">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>One Who Holds Himself a Knower</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The great Mussar classic Orchos Tzaddikim (The Ways of the Righteous) contains the admonition, &#8220;One who holds himself a knower is considered a fool by others.&#8221; That saying might just sum up why I haven&#8217;t been inspired to blog much &#8230; <a href="http://www.hopeabbey.com/?p=758">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>Why I Go to Church</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As I study what seems like an ever-more-chaotic blogosphere (interblag?) full of people who are arguing, usually very passionately, about everything, I find myself thankful that I am a somewhat regular person that goes to a somewhat regular church.

		<title>Do What You Can</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Studying modern scholarship on Second Temple Judaism is kind of a brain drain. From what I can tell, there is a strong consensus around Ed Sanders&#8217;s portrayal of Judaism, based on Jewish sources ancient and modern, as a religion based &#8230; <a href="http://www.hopeabbey.com/?p=747">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>How Academic Dialogue Works</title>
