    appearance with the people in public settings. Two Types of Teachers: Scribes vs. Jesus (12:35-37; 41-44) Chapter 12:35-44 is a continuation of the previous events in chapter 12.

    One way in which scribes altered this text was by changing the original grammar. For instance, a word would be changed from its masculine form to a feminine one and vice versa. Other words were altered from singular to plural forms or conversely. It is argued that many of these types of changes were to correct the improper Greek grammar found in the source to which the scribe had access. Many of the corrections were subtle and did little to affect…

    Scribes were given the power and knowledge of writing. They started off with simple things and if they were lucky and/or talented then they could eventually learn the sacred script. Those who learn the sacred script will learn the mysteries of the land and the secrets of the gods. Not everyone in Egypt knew how to read and write, only certain people were given this privilege. Scribes were usually men, and not just anyone could become a scribe. It was usually passed down…

    here. The young woman standing a few feet away, donned in black scrubs with a chunky laptop in hand, overheard and smiled as she came towards me. She introduced herself and told me she was a scribe assigned to the same doctor for the night. We talked of our classes at Baylor, and of what it was like being a scribe in the emergency room.

The Sphinx of Hatshepsut is particularly interesting to me for the fact that she was a women pharaoh in Egypt in a time where men and women were not considered equal. Hatshepsut means “The Foremost of noble ladies.” She reigned from 1508–1458 BC and was the fifth pharaoh of the eighteenth dynasty of Egypt. Hatshepsut came to the throne of Egypt in 1478 BC. Officially, she ruled jointly with Thutmose III…

    There are many people and religious sects that resemble the Scribes and Pharisees from when Jesus was walking the earth. Even though there is plenty of evidence of the events that took place some two thousand years ago, people and religious groups do not believe they had taken place. Some groups that could resemble the Pharisees and Scribes of today lack some of the attributes of the teachers of the past. When Jesus was dealing with the questions of the different religious sects of the day, He…
