I find it quite interesting that, even before Christ came to be the ultimate sacrifice, God made it as easy as possible for the poor to come to Him, as well as the wealthy, as is illustrated in Leviticus 12:8, if a woman can’t afford a lamb, she is to provide doves or pigeons as [...]
Anthony Eaton’s “Nightpeople” is an interesting deviation to the usual post-apocalyptic fantasy novels, largely in that it has very clear Australian influences, especially indiginous Australian influences, in a way that is easy to read and easy to understand for most age levels. The story is a little bit slow to get underway, and some people [...]
My Bible is a student study Bible, so it has lots of notes here and there and has a brief introduction to each book of the Bible just giving an overview of it and things like that. At the start of Leviticus, it says that many people lose interest in Leviticus when reading through the [...]
This last part of Exodus largely covers God’s requirements of the tabernacle and His instructions on how it should be set up. By and large, the things covered here are things I have gone over before, but there were a few little things here and there that I found quite interesting. Chapter 35 starts off [...]
This part of Exodus is largely based around God’s Ten Commandments, and has some really good life advice in general. In chapter 18, Jethro, Moses’ father in law and the priest of Midian comes to visit after hearing everything that God is doing with the Israelites. In verses 13 to 26, after seeing how Moses [...]
Exodus is an interesting book to read. As it’s name suggests, the main focus of the first half is on the oppression and the Israelites exodus of Egypt. It then covers the ten commandments, and then almost all of the second half is focused entirely on the development of the tabernacle. I didn’t end up [...]
I’ve decided to keep a list of the books I’ve read this year. Mainly because I was aiming to read 52 books. Well, I’m about 4 books behind so far and I think that’s going to get worse, but we’ll see. So here’s my list. The Crooked Letter by Sean Williams. Finished on 06/02/2009. Genesis [...]
I posted yesterday regarding a problem I was having with Internet Explorer 7 rendering some JavaScript controlled pop ups incorrectly in one of my current projects. I ended up fixing it by applying a position: relative; and z-index: 100; to each <p> tag. Nothing below 100 would display the text. It turns out its a [...]
It’s great to see a boss pointing these things out to the employees. Sure, a cash handout is great, but ongoing work is much better. Have a read of the letter that this employer sent to his employees here. As a small business owner, I agree with this email entirely, even though I only employ [...]
IE and problem in the same sentence, not surprising is it? I’m working on a project at the moment where I’ve come up against a rather frustrating problem in Internet Explorer. I have a series of pop ups on a particular page that are opened with JavaScript when help links are clicked. The JavaScript for [...]
