Slate blogs the Bible

Christianity Today’s Weblog recommends Slate’s series ‘Blogging the Bible’. CT says:

It’s really quite interesting to read the non-observant Jew’s reactions as he goes through the first few chapters of Genesis. He’s a wonderful writer, if not the world’s most trained exegete. ...
It’s fun and refreshing stuff, especially for us Protestants who have a long history of believing that all the answers to Scripture’s mysteries are self-evident if we’d only read it for ourselves. For now, Plotz is only up to Genesis 25—we’ll be even more impressed if he gets beyond Leviticus, the bane of many a “read through the Bible” project.

(That’s non-observant Jew, not non-observant writer…)
