Minute Paper 2

 

Today, we discussed the importance of order in the religious texts, specifically how it shaped the social perspectives and major religious convictions in both Judaism and Christianity. Also, it was interesting how the Old Testament was written over the course of 1000 years, as we wondered what was added or lost from the initial scripture. We also appreciated how the religious texts could be read from different perspectives, such as an African American or Native American’s point of view, and how those of Caucasian descent may view them differently.
