Over the summer, a friend asks you what classes you took this semester. When you tell them that you took a class on the Hebrew Bible, they ask “Well, what’s it all about?”  Write a response to your friend that answers the following: First, in 2-3 sentences, explain to them what the Hebrew Bible is. What kind of genres are contained within it, and what are some examples of those genres? Are the books sequenced randomly, or is there an order or system of organization? And who were the Israelites, anyway? Second, tell your friend about TWO stories that we read that you think are most important for understanding who the Israelites were and/or their beliefs. Describe the stories and explain their significance. You do not need to quote passages or include their citations (although that would be very impressive), but you do need to give enough of a summary for your friend to understand what happened AND explain the significance of each story. IMPORTANT: Your answer should be academic in nature. You are not trying to convert your friend to a particular belief system. IMPORTANT: You may use first person language, but you must write in full sentences (no bullet points/outline).
