It's the class before midterms, and as you can see by the syllabus, we were scheduled to have a guest in class, Rabbi Adam J. Bermay. He has had some health issues, so we will hopfully have him rebooked in a few weeks. Ne praying for him...He is a great resource, as he is a Jewish rabbi...but unlike most Jews and rabbis, a believer in Jesus.(Remember "rabbi" is Jewish "teacher" and there were three levels of the title: Rab -informal, friendly, peer term; Rabbi, and Rabboni- so elevated and distinguished a term and title, it almost implies you are God/Messiah/Ultimate Teacher .Notice this is what Mary called Jesus after resurrection)

--REMINDER:
The exam is Friday, and if you want to come an hour early and/or stay an hour late, I will be in the classroom for that purpose.
The exam will require you to use your own paper, so probably a "Blue Book" (available in bookstore) is best.
If you missed our study session Monday, get with someone who was there..or just use all the extra help I gave you on the
What's on the midterm? tab at top of blog.
Prayers!
