Masoret מסורת

Just some drivel from a PhD student in 17th century English literature. Masoret is Hebrew for tradition; Masor is also the Hebrew word for saw. Since i hope to be learning and blogging about traditional woodworking (amongst sundry other things), i thought it was an apt play on words. Before you ask, yes, i have a glamorous social life.

About Me

naomi
Jerusalem, United Kingdom
Hi. My name is Naomi and i am working on my doctorate on Christian Hebraism in 17th century English literature, specifically Richard Hooker, Launcelot Andrewes, John Donne, and Jeremy Taylor. I am interested in interfaith communication and i believe that tolerance must start in learning about other faiths--you'd be surprised how much dialogue there was (and should be!!). This blog is an outlet to express thoughts and generate discussions on the subjects of my PhD, woodworking, martial arts, and whatever else comes up. Thanks for visiting my blog!
