  • A Theological Reading of the Gideon-Abimelech Narrative
    YAHWEH vERsus BAALISM A THEOLOGICAL READING OF THE GIDEON-ABIMELECH NARRATIVE WOLFGANG BLUEDORN A thesis submitted to Cheltenham and Gloucester College of Higher Education in accordance with the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Faculty of Arts & Humanities April 1999 ABSTRACT This study attemptsto describethe contribution of the Abimelech narrative for the theologyof Judges.It is claimedthat the Gideonnarrative and the Abimelechnarrative need to be viewed as one narrative that focuseson the demonstrationof YHWH'S superiority over Baalism, and that the deliverance from the Midianites in the Gideon narrative, Abimelech's kingship, and the theme of retribution in the Abimelech narrative serve as the tangible matter by which the abstracttheological theme becomesnarratable. The introduction to the Gideon narrative, which focuses on Israel's idolatry in a previously unparalleled way in Judges,anticipates a theological narrative to demonstrate that YHWH is god. YHwH's prophet defines the general theological background and theme for the narrative by accusing Israel of having abandonedYHwH despite his deeds in their history and having worshipped foreign gods instead. YHWH calls Gideon to demolish the idolatrous objects of Baalism in response, so that Baalism becomes an example of any idolatrous cult. Joash as the representativeof Baalism specifies the defined theme by proposing that whichever god demonstrateshis divine power shall be recognised as god. The following episodesof the battle against the Midianites contrast Gideon's inadequateresources with his selfish attempt to be honoured for the victory, assignthe victory to YHWH,who remains in control and who thus demonstrateshis divine power, and show that Baal is not presentin the narrative.

  • Eoin Harty in Profile by ED GOLDEN Turf Writer
    Eoin Harty in Profile By ED GOLDEN Turf Writer There was always an air of levity at Bob Baffert’s barn when Eoin Harty worked there. Not that the game they played wasn’t serious. It was. Preparing 1,000-pound equine athletes with spindly legs to perform at their peak on the world’s stage is not a job for anyone in short pants. During the seven years Harty was Baffert’s assistant, they won the Kentucky Derby twice–with Silver Charm in 1997 and Real Quiet in 1998–and missed by a heart-breaking nose with Cavonnier in 1996. But in between the regimented tedium, there was always time for a good hoot. Fact is, it was and still is part of Baffert’s DNA. “He’s got a sense of humor,” Baffert said of Harty. “He has a good disposition and we liked to have a lot of fun, so he fit in well.” But work came first, and Harty had his priorities in order. His foundation was ingrained. Lean and sinewy with chiseled features, Harty hails from a family of Irish horsemen that extends back at least five generations. His grandfather, great grandfather, and great-great grandfather were trainers in their native Ireland. Eoin (pronounced Owen) began to hone his craft under the learned wing of the late John Russell before joining with Baffert, who saw a © BENOIT PHOTO master in the making. “Eoin showed up every day,” Baffert recalled. “He works hard and he’s passionate about what he does, and I like that in all my assistants.

  • Classic Form Runs Deep in World
    SATURDAY, 26 MARCH 2016 GRENDISAR TOO GOOD IN EASTER CLASSIC CLASSIC FORM RUNS A true stalwart of the all-weather scene by now, Grendisar (Ire) DEEP IN WORLD CUP (Invincible Spirit {Ire}) followed up his win in the G3 Winter Derby Feb. 27 in Friday’s Coral Easter Classic on Good Friday to confirm that he is a force to be reckoned with now that his arch-nemesis Tryster (Ire) (Shamardal) is playing away in Dubai. Always well positioned by Adam Kirby in mid-division, the bay allowed Metropol (Ire) (Holy Roman Emperor {Ire}) first run in the straight, but cut down that French raider inside the last half-furlong for another major payday. “He’s a proper racehorse and has never been in better form, so is a credit to his trainer,” his jockey said, while Marco Botti revealed that a summer break is probably on the cards now. “We were confident with his form, as he looked great but you never know and luckily it panned out well with a nice genuine pace all the way,” his trainer said. “He deserved to win a big race like this and seems to enjoy it around Lingfield on this surface, so we’ve found the key to him.” Cont. p2 California Chrome and Alan Sherman at Meydan Friday | DRC/Mathea Kelley No matter what way you look at it, the American contingent MO TOM AIMS TO REBOUND IN LA DERBY forms an imposing presence in the $10-million G1 Dubai World GIII LeComte S. winner Mo Tom (Uncle Mo) anchors the Cup, the world’s richest horse race that will celebrate its 21st GII TwinSpires.com Louisiana Derby at Fair Grounds Saturday.
