[jewish] a broken record

This is kind of a rehash of another post of mine you might have read. But the provocation is new, all new.

The Telegraph recently published an article headlined "God is not the Creator, claims academic." Besides the obvious need for subquotation marks in that title, it should be noted that the academic -- Ellen van Wolde -- is not in fact making an atheist argument but a biblical one. The word "bara'", she says, means not "to create" but "to separate." This, says the Telegraph, means that a mighty blow has been struck against the Traditional Interpretation of God.
