Never fear, I am still here...
I thought I would do better at this, but it is kind of difficult when I am so active on Internet forums. many of the posts I make are probably blog-worthy, but since I posted my thought on whatever that subject is on that forum, I feel like I am "cheating" if I retype it here. I don't know why, since I will often reference my blogs here, when I am posting on those same forums. oh well.
here's a link to a site that I thought was soo kewl, that I had to post it on several forums:
http://www.imj.org.il/shrine_center/Isaiah_Scrolling/index.html
I am no expert, but it is really kewl that I can take a character/word/phrase at a time and do my own translations (based on my limited Hebrew linguistics). I have books on teh dead sea scrolls, and have hebrew texts of some,a nd translations of others, but this huge scroll is the first I have seen with so much viewable text, it amazes me.
