[September 2003 journal entry]
Jewish scripture and Christian scripture are for me analogous to boxes of puzzle pieces, various selections of which can be combined into partial/incomplete pictures without any one combination that uses all the pieces. The idea of an everlasting ‘hell’ is for me a piece that stays in the box. The Ecclesiastes essay and the emerging of the ‘scrapheap’ Job in the story/play Job function for me in a way analogous to beginning to put a puzzle together by locating corner pieces and edge pieces.
