Then you broaden the lense by finding echo phrases within the narrative, the bible and then ultimatly the laws and traditions of everyone at that time. However when reading the bible in all of these different levels, it will also include our own individual lenses which are created by our beliefs and expiriences. We cannot ignore the patriarchal society that influenced the interpretations of the bible but we can recognize that the bible itself did not portrey women as others. ]]> 2021-02-23 21:18:24 UTC https://padlet.com/trabinowitz/nx2alb4h7ymad3zm1631568850/wish/1233799361 https://padlet.com/trabinowitz/nx2alb4h7ymad3zm1631568850/wish/1233799445 her approach to reading the bible is not to assume evil intent of ancient interpreters but also not to ignore the patriarchal society that exists in the bible, 
in terms of reading, she starts small and focuses on the grammar and set up of the text, then zooms out to focus on meaning and translation, zooms out further to compare to other texts, and zooms out fully to compare to the ancient world and the world today]]> 2021-02-23 21:18:26 UTC https://padlet.com/trabinowitz/nx2alb4h7ymad3zm1631568850/wish/1233799445 https://padlet.com/trabinowitz/nx2alb4h7ymad3zm1631568850/wish/1233799482
Her approach begins by dropping any preconceived notions on what the text might be saying and instead reading the text as objectively as possible.

Her next step is to notice any confusing or ambiguous gramer and word choices.

They she goes big and begins to notice eco frazes and illusions to others texts. She also takes into account the time period and traditions.

She also notices patriarcal aspects of the text to try and find what the text is really implying or saying, without assuming the worst]]> 2021-02-23 21:18:27 UTC https://padlet.com/trabinowitz/nx2alb4h7ymad3zm1631568850/wish/1233799482 rarnold2021 https://padlet.com/trabinowitz/nx2alb4h7ymad3zm1631568850/wish/1233799607 the way she approaches reading the bible is by first disregarding all preconceptions embedded in our reading by commentators and simply reading to text for what it is. Then she zooms in on grammar and diction. 
She also looks for similarities between the narrative she is reading and others in the bible. Finally, she zooms out into wide lens mode and looks for symbolism and the bigger picture to make it relevant and meaningful to her.

While doing this she ignores any preconceptions made about the text such as midrashim that the majority associate with the narrative. ]]> 2021-02-23 21:18:48 UTC https://padlet.com/trabinowitz/nx2alb4h7ymad3zm1631568850/wish/1233800464 lsealman20221 https://padlet.com/trabinowitz/nx2alb4h7ymad3zm1631568850/wish/1233800819 Her approach to reading the Bible starts with zooming into all of the literary, grammatical and linguistic aspects of the text (looking at it without coming in with previously known information such as midrash or interpretations). She then uses that to look for echoing phrases used and draw conclusions in the text from there. She also zooms farther out afterwards and compares the text in relation to Halacha/biblical law (and even general law at the time).]]> 2021-02-23 21:18:56 UTC https://padlet.com/trabinowitz/nx2alb4h7ymad3zm1631568850/wish/1233800819 https://padlet.com/trabinowitz/nx2alb4h7ymad3zm1631568850/wish/1233803240
her approach to reading bible is to approach it with suspicion but also grace which causes her to notice the problematic patriarchal elements but not assume bad intentions from teh biblical writers due to the historical orientation towards women of the time which influenced their creation. she also ignores biblical  commentary, focuses on grammar and rhetoric, and analyzes the text both on its own and in a greater context ]]> 2021-02-23 21:19:47 UTC https://padlet.com/trabinowitz/nx2alb4h7ymad3zm1631568850/wish/1233803240 sasayag20211 https://padlet.com/trabinowitz/nx2alb4h7ymad3zm1631568850/wish/1233805906 Her approach to reading the bible is that at first you need to start reading it small - zooming in into the language and the grammar and all the linguistic parts of the text. Then you kind of zoom out and focus on finding echos within the text to other narratives in the bible. after you looked for similarities within the text, you really need to widen your lens and look at the b"bigger picture". This lens is more personal, this way looking for symbols in the text that are relevant to her personal life experience and beliefs. ]]> 2021-02-23 21:20:40 UTC https://padlet.com/trabinowitz/nx2alb4h7ymad3zm1631568850/wish/1233805906 https://padlet.com/trabinowitz/nx2alb4h7ymad3zm1631568850/wish/1233810370 - Put aside all previous interpretations you know and read the text as it is written
- Pay attention to language
- Look for similarities to other texts
- Look at the bigger picture, what is the lesson?
- Notice other interpreters personal beliefs interfering with their interpretation
- Try to see how her own personal beliefs interfere with her interpretation (and acknowledge it)
