read the articles

Students will review three assigned articles (provided by the instructor) and produce a minimum of 1250 words (1” margins, Times New Roman 12 pt. font, no title page, heading single-spaced, text double spaced). Your audience should be imagined as adults of average to above average intelligence (pastors, parents, peers) who are not specialists in this field. You are writing for them and to them. This reading report should have two parts.

Part One: Article Summaries

You are to summarize each of the assigned articles. Pay attention to the aims of each article. What is the author trying to communicate? How does the author go about making the argument? Read carefully and write concisely. Allot about 310 words (1 page) per article. Remember to use APA for citations.

Part Two: Personal Appreciation or Evaluation of the Articles

This is the place where you articulate in some detail what you feel are the merits and/or shortcomings of each article. What aspects of the articles do you consider to be especially helpful or illuminating with regard to the book of Exodus? What aspects of the articles do you consider to be particularly troubling? Do you still have questions? What are they? Allot about 310 words (1 page) total for this section.

The assigned readings are:

• Theo Witvliet, “Exodus in the African-American Experience.” Pages 191-206 in Religious Identity and the Invention of Tradition: Papers Read at a Noster Conference, Soesterberg, January 4-6, 1999. Leiden: Brill, 2001.
• Exum, J. Cheryl. “‘Mother in Israel’: A Familiar Figure Reconsidered.” Pages 73–85 in Feminist Interpretation of the Bible. Edited by Letty M. Russell. Philadelphia: Westminster Press, 1985.
• Kuan, Kah-Jin Jeffrey. “Reading with New Eyes: Social Location and the Bible.” Adapted from a November 2002 lecture at Lancaster Theological Seminary.
