Derailed Train of Thoughts
Posted in General on July 22nd, 2019 by Eugene Finerman – Be the first to commentLast Saturday, for lack of anyone more reputable, I led a class discussion on the Prophet Isaiah.
The selected passages were Isaiah, Chapter 22-23; but I digressed on the following tangents…
Louis XIV and his finance minister Nicolas Fouquet
The Phoenician colonization of North Africa and Spain
Genetic studies of the Philistines
Alexander the Great, and his campaign against Tyre
Rudyard Kipling’s poem “Recessional”
Isaiah may also have been mentioned.
But here are more details on Nicolas Fouquet.
