\n\nFinished reading: Inspiration and Incarnation Evangelicals and the Problem of the Old Testament by Peter Enns 📚I really appreciated this book and how Enns explores the diversity and 2nd Temple hermeneutic by which NT authors engage the OT. Very relevant to current conversations with young adults.

\nRead this in Swedish, then called Kött. Another novel about modern life told in a distanced way. What I liked about it? It’s unsentimental. What I didn’t like? I didn’t really cared about anyone in it, especially not the main character.
