Dylan's Sandbox

I am looking at editing the wiki page on Rahab. Inserting a few of the points that Coogan talks briefly about on page 40. Mentioning how Rahab was not only a sea monster but was also believed to have been involved before the creation of earth.

Underneath the section labeled "Jewish folklore" I planned on adding a sentence that goes something along he lines of "Rahab has also been mentioned in connection with Biblical Creation, that Rahab was destroyed by the creator before he began his work of creation." ^[1]

User:Dkcincy, hi. you didn't finish your last sentence? And I'm testing the notifications of a sandbox. ProfGray (talk) 20:20, 11 February 2015 (UTC)

User:ProfGray, Yeah I need to finish it, I typed it then started to try and learn how to better navigate through other peoples' sandboxes and pages. Dkcincy (talk) 20:29, 11 February 2015 (UTC)

Wife-Sister Narrative

The article I had labed "Studies in the Book of Genesis had an overall theme of looking at stories in Genesis and showing where they mirrored other stories in Israel's history. It related these theme directly to the Wife-Sister Narrative with it's main point being "There has been one version which was copied, revised and adapted, resulting in the present three versions of this narrative" (Hoop, 366). ^[2]

User:Dkcincy, I would maybe clarify the first sentence to say that 'A major theme of the paper "Studies in the Book of Genesis" was how stories in Genesis mirrored stories in Israel's history.' And then maybe go on to say how this is related to the Wife-Sister Narratives. Maybe paraphrasing would clarify the meaning of the quotation further as well! Good luck on your editing!
