It’s nice to settle in at home this week after spending last week in Israel. On Monday-Wednesday I had the privilege of attending, and presenting at, a conference on prophecy and politics at the University of Haifa. The conference involved about 50 scholars from Israel, Germany, Argentina, France, Poland, and the United States, many of them at the very top of their business and well known for their research in various aspects of the Old Testament and the ancient Near East.

Thursday took me by bus to Caesarea.

Friday and Saturday were spent in Jerusalem. More about that later.
