    I think these podcasts may be the most riveting podcasts I listen to. And I listen to a lot of podcasts.

    This is somewhat less daft in the original Hebrew.
    Or not.
    Okay, I haven’t got a clue.
    Dad?

    Andy, mum’s fibbing. She helped me at least three times.

    If you only knew how many times I’d tried selling you into slavery…

    Although there are times (say, 2 a.m., for example) when Skye’s hogging all the bed AND all the duvet that I could kick her.
    That’s right, my dog steals my duvet.

    They’re not animals. They’re people.

    Um, it’s always okay to kick Jesus and the woman caught in adultery for comedy effect?
    Oh, hang on.
    Animals.
    Yeah.
    Anyway, Jonny, ‘the church’s response to her plight shouldn’t be to decide if she’s doing right or wrong. It should be to help her…’ Very well put.
    As to the ‘gunmen on a plane’ (sounds like a film. Possibly [...]

  • jack commented on the blog post My Exegesis

    Mum – Dad’s absolutely right about it being the opposite of an eisegesis, and as right as you are about it generally being heretics we burn, rather than heathens, sometimes it just pays to be safe. And actually, if you think about it, it’s probably quite good for heathens if we burn them, ‘cos that [...]

    Seriously though, it’s Greek, and has to do with interpreting things. Or extracting meaning from things. Chiefly, y’know, the Bible, in this context. I’m sure Dad (or, hopefully, Andy) can give a better definition.

    Maybe it’s just a Hoyland thing, rather than a Hoyland-man thing. Also, you do throw quite a lot of stuff at me…
    Also also, Sian, I hope you’re feeling better, and don’t let Andy fool you – I did all the heavy lifting on Friday; Andy mostly just moved cushions.

    Good list sis! (Uh, or sis-in-law, I guess. But that just didn’t have the same ring)
    I read the Fight Scene bit to Nats, and she reckons it must be a Hoyland-man thing, ‘cos we’re about the same as you by the sounds of things. Also, if she was to have a fight, it would be [...]
