Posts have been somewhat slower over the past two weeks as Mandy and I have been preparing for family to visit. Over the next several weeks we will have a veritable parade of family visiting. We’re looking forward to it, but expect that it will continue to cut into blogging time. Never fear! In August you can expect to see (at least) the conclusion of my series on Job and the continuation of Mandy’s series on Lamentations. I have a couple other posts simmering, though whether those will make it onto the Floppy Hat in August is unclear at the moment.

In the mean time, I direct you to John’s most recent series on a tense-prominent understanding of the Qatal. I’m not entirely convinced, but John is always worth reading and engaging in dialog. On a similar topic is Pete Bekins’ somewhat recent series of posts which begins here. I’ve been hoping to have the chance to interact some with what Pete has written, but other things continue to interfere.
