In the last post about the upcoming carnival, I received a grand total of 0 suggestions
This is another call that, if you want to pass on your own or other people’s posts to ensure they get in the carnival, you can either post the links in the comments below or send me an email if you prefer. If your comment does not immediately appear, it may be because it accidently ended up in my spam box because of multiple links but whenever I am logged on I will make sure to approve your comments. Also, I am a little busy this week as my birthday comes right in the middle and it is my last week of my 2nd year in Sheffield before I fly back to Canada for the summer at the start of July, so either if I can squeeze in some free time I will put out the carnival on June 30 or else it may be delayed to July 3 or 4 (it will be a surprise!). But for a trip down memory lane, here is the carnival I posted on my former blog almost 3 years ago (I can’t believe how long I have been doing this, let alone how those around at the beginning of biblioblogdom must feel).
I’m a bit too out of touch this last both to nominate others, but may I invite you to consider one of the few I’ve made recently, on
Paul and the historical Jesus?

Thanks Doug, I will put it in.
Michael,
I hope I’m not too late.
In my view, one of the most important posts on the Bible (both he Hebrew Bible and the Christian New Testament) this month was by Ron Naiweld at The Talmud Blog asks, “What is a redactor” (http://thetalmudblog.wordpress.com/2012/06/26/what-is-a-redactor/
) and it was written by a student of the Talmud. As Jim Davila (http://paleojudaica.blogspot.com/2012_06_24_archive.html#9024137374439701142 ) said, “This is not just an issue for rabbinic texts. In antiquity it was the norm for writers to be both authors and compilers and they saw no particular distinction between the two.”
Some carnival goers may find my post “Dietrich and Loretz On The Tiryns Alphabetic Inscription” (http://www.telecomtally.com/blog/2012/06/dietrich_and_loretz_on_the_tir_1.html ) interesting but not so much for want Dietrich and Loretz say about the Tiryns Alphabetic Inscription may say about Hosea 4:12a.
Have fun with the carnival.

Here I discuss the Antioch incident in the light of Stephen Carlson’s immensely important observations on the textual variants in Gal 2:12.
If it’s not too late, I discuss the structure of the book of Micah here, as well as an interesting inclusio at the beginning and and of the book: http://abramkj.wordpress.com/2012/06/24/prophetic-whiplash-god-of-mercy-or-god-of-wrath/
