A Review by Kenneth Atkinson of Alexandria and Qumran: Back to the Beginning, by Kenneth Silver
Kenneth Silver (a.k.a. Kenneth A. K. Lönnqvist), is a historian and professional archaeologist, who has lived and worked for decades in the Near East. With extensive publications on Hellenistic and Roman archaeology, history, and numismatics, Silver is the director of a survey and mapping project in Northern Mesopotamia studying the border zone between the late Roman/ Byzantine Empires and Persia. Author of numerous publications on Qumran and related topics, Silver’s lengthy monograph proposes that the documents and type of library found at Qumran were based on models derived from Egypt. The main thesis of the volume is that Pythagorean philosophy is the core and basis for the beliefs reflected in the non-Biblical texts found at Qumran

John Baillie's Epistemology of Mediated Immediacy: its Logic, Importance for Baillie's Mediating Theology, and Promise as a Model of Revelatory Religious Experience
The field of academic theology is presently maintaining the following about the
critical thought of the Scottish thinker John Baillie (1886-1960): (1) Baillie’s so-called
"mediating theology" does not have a concept to contribute to contemporary Christian
thought; (2) Baillie's concept of "mediated immediacy" is important primarily for
Baillie's thought in his Our Knowledge of God (1939); (3) mediated immediacy’s logic
about knowledge of God is severely convoluted. Received positions which support the
field's marginalization of mediated immediacy's contemporary relevance in particular,
they come with a concession: (4) the field's confusion about mediated immediacy's
meaning—this, as evidenced in over 75 years' worth of competing interpretations about
mediated immediacy’s logic, in particular.
This thesis centers primarily on Baillie's concept of mediated immediacy, taking
as its primary aim the resolution of research issues (1-4). In doing so, it demonstrates that
previous research has underestimated: the staying power of Baillie's mediating theology
in general, mediated immediacy’s importance for Baillie’s mediating theology in
particular, and mediated immediacy’s potential as a contribution to contemporary
Christian thought. Along the way, it resolves several research issues which have been
occasioned by perennial confusion about the logic of mediated immediacy's normative
epistemology and descriptive epistemology in particular. Research contributions about
the logic of mediated immediacy's epistemology per se, these derive from three
additional research contributions: a diachronic trace of the development of Baillie's
mediating theology (Baillie research has sought a comprehensive and cogent ordering of
Baillie's non-systematically articulated critical thought; this thesis provides it, by
identifying Baillie's espistemic and apologetic preoccupations across his critical thought's
roughly 35-year development); a modeling of mediated immediacy's logic (previously
absent in a research corpus whose literature ahs been replete with confusion), that logic's
expression in what is found to be, contrary to the thrust of previous research, a concept of
mediated immediacy that serves at least four functions for Baillie's mediating theology;
and, a comprehensive and rigorous critical evaluation of mediated immediacy’s epistemology (also previously absent in Baillie research literature), a multi-disciplinary
evaluation of it's logic (from contemporary philosophical-epistemological, empiricalpsychological
and theological-epistemological perspectives), included. An evaluation
warranted by the multi-disciplinary scope of Baillie's mediating theology, as well as by
Baillie's employment of his rather versatile concept of mediated immediacy, this
evaluation considers mediated immediacy's now robustly evaluated logic's consequences
for core aspects of Baillie's mediating theology, including Baillie’s ideas of knowledge of
God, divine action, divine revelation and religious experience.
The definitive work on John Baillie's concept of mediated immediacy, this thesis
is essential for those with an interest in John Baillie's critical thought. Amongst other
things, the thesis challenges positions widely held by John Baillie research. For example,
it demonstrates that a nascent form of mediated immediacy existed in Baillie's thought
before the concept's first explicit mention in the mediating theologian's 1939 publication
Our Knowledge of God. Here is a novel interpretation in the research. Furthermore,
whereas previous research has rightly observed that Baillie’s critical thought gravitates
toward the problems of revelation and knowledge of God in general, this thesis
demonstrates that Baillie’s mediating theology focuses on one problem in particular—
across the roughly 35-year span of its development: the problem of the epistemological
relationship between direct knowledge and indirect knowledge for knowledge of God. In
addition, this thesis demonstrates that Baillie’s latter mediating theology (post-1939)
provides a stronger doctrine of the Holy Spirit than that found in Baillie's earlier critical
thought.
This thesis may also be of value to persons with broader interests, including the
epistemic interplay between aspects of philosophy of religion, philosophical theology,
and empirically-based interpretations of the phenomena of religious experience
A Prenylated dsRNA Sensor Protects Against Severe COVID-19
Inherited genetic factors can influence the severity of COVID-19, but the molecular explanation underpinning a genetic association is often unclear. Intracellular antiviral defenses can inhibit the replication of viruses and reduce disease severity. To better understand the antiviral defenses relevant to COVID-19, we used interferon-stimulated gene (ISG) expression screening to reveal that OAS1, through RNase L, potently inhibits SARS-CoV-2. We show that a common splice-acceptor SNP (Rs10774671) governs whether people express prenylated OAS1 isoforms that are membrane-associated and sense specific regions of SARS-CoV-2 RNAs, or only express cytosolic, nonprenylated OAS1 that does not efficiently detect SARS-CoV-2. Importantly, in hospitalized patients, expression of prenylated OAS1 was associated with protection from severe COVID-19, suggesting this antiviral defense is a major component of a protective antiviral response
