This is vol\u00adume 316, which is cool because leg\u00adendary Stan\u00adford CS pro\u00adfes\u00adsor Don Knuth wrote a book called 3:16 Bible Texts Illu\u00admi\u00adnat\u00aded<\/a> in which he ana\u00adlyzes every chap\u00adter 3 verse 16 in the Bible as a means of bring\u00ading his aca\u00add\u00ade\u00adm\u00adic exper\u00adtise to bear upon his faith.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. The Curse of Ham: Get\u00adting It Hor\u00adri\u00adbly Wrong<\/a> (Stephen Le Feu\u00advre, The Gospel Coali\u00adtion Africa): \u201cIn bib\u00adli\u00adcal Hebrew, the name \u2018Cush\u2019 seems to mean \u2018Ethiopi\u00adan\u2019 or \u2018black\u00adness\u2019. Black African nations seem\u00ading\u00adly devel\u00adoped from the off\u00adspring of Cush. But that is exact\u00adly where the so-called curse of Ham is mis\u00adap\u00adplied. The curse nev\u00ader fell on Ham or on Cush. For what\u00adev\u00ader rea\u00adson, not tru\u00adly giv\u00aden in the text, it fell on Canaan. In Gen\u00ade\u00adsis 9:25 Noah pours out his anger, \u2018Cursed be Canaan!\u2019 There is no record of a bib\u00adli\u00adcal curse put on the descen\u00addants of Cush or the nations of Africa.\u201d
    1. A slight\u00adly old\u00ader arti\u00adcle that I\u2019m shar\u00ading this week for obvi\u00adous rea\u00adsons. If you\u2019ve recent\u00adly heard the phrase \u201cCurse of Canaan\u201d or \u201cCurse of Ham\u201d this arti\u00adcle will help you sort out what it means.<\/li><\/ol><\/li>
    2. Why the UN\u2019s Dire Cli\u00admate Change Report Is Ded\u00adi\u00adcat\u00aded to an Evan\u00adgel\u00adi\u00adcal Chris\u00adt\u00adian<\/a> (Daniel Sil\u00adli\u00adman, Chris\u00adtian\u00adi\u00adty Today): \u201cHoughton, who died of com\u00adpli\u00adca\u00adtions relat\u00aded to COVID-19 in 2020 at the age of 88, was the chief edi\u00adtor of the first three IPCC reports and an ear\u00adly, influ\u00aden\u00adtial leader call\u00ading for action on cli\u00admate change. His con\u00adcerns about green\u00adhouse gas\u00ades, ris\u00ading tem\u00adper\u00ada\u00adture aver\u00adages, dying coral reefs, blis\u00adter\u00ading heat waves, and increas\u00ading\u00adly extreme weath\u00ader were informed by his train\u00ading at as atmos\u00adpher\u00adic physi\u00adcist and his com\u00admit\u00adment to sci\u00adence. They also come out of his evan\u00adgel\u00adi\u00adcal under\u00adstand\u00ading of God, the bib\u00adli\u00adcal accounts of humanity\u2019s rela\u00adtion\u00adship to cre\u00adation, and what it means for a Chris\u00adt\u00adian to fol\u00adlow Christ.\u201d<\/li>
