extra-biblical hedges can be extremely useful, particularly when they are self-impossedâ€¦ it becomes a problem when people start main their hedges normative for all.

Exactly! In a similar vein – tradition isn’t a problem the first time you do something – it becomes a problem when you forget that it is a tradition and not a mandate…

I don’t have Dickson’s book (but I’m adding it to the list). I finished Our Father Abraham just before my Israel trip in spring 2006 – I loved it and frequently refer back to it.

Chris,
Have you read Athol Dickson’s The Gospel According to Moses? I read it last year, and he touched on some of these same points.

I got a book for my birthday by Marvin R. Wilson called Our Father Abraham, but I haven’t gotten to start it yet. I’m looking forward to it, though.
