Christ as the Covenant: Justin Martyr's Interpretation of the New Covenant in Jeremiah 31.31-32
No full textThis thesis attempts to reveal a neglected facet of Justin Martyr’s idea of the new covenant (NC), with a focus on Justin’s identification of the new covenant with Christ. It is an effort to seek its Jewish origins.
Justin’s interpretation of the NC in Jeremiah 31(38).31-32 is indebted to an early liturgical tradition preserved in Luke 22 and 1 Corinthians 11. This interpretation of the NC as the Sacrament is linked with his identification of the NC with Christ, since Justin views the Eucharist as the embodiment of the divine Logos, which Justin considers to be equal to Christ. Justin’s NC does not only refer to the Eucharist, but baptism as well. Although Justin’s identification might have been partly influenced by the Kerygma Petri, which identifies the Law with the Lord, it is rather significantly influenced by the Jewish traditions.
This element in Justin’s use of the NC is shaped by the textual/exegetical traditions of the OT/Hebrew Bible such as LXX, a Jewish recension (a καίγε type/‘Theodotion’, or Aquila), and the PT tradition in its oral stage. Particularly, Justin detects the theme of the ‘coming/going out of תורה/תודה’ in Isaiah 2.3/51.4 and the Book of the Covenant—the context of the NC text of Jeremiah (30-31 [37-38])—with his knowledge of a Hebraizing reading of Jeremiah 30.19 attested in the version of Aquila; Justin’s juxtaposition of these verses in Dialogue 11 and 24 indicates that he views תורה in Isaiah 2.3 and 51.4 as identical with תודה/εὐχαριστία in Jeremiah 30.19. Moreover, Justin learned the Midrashic tradition on the water of Marah, which involves Jewish metaphors of ‘tree (of life)’ and ‘water’ as the Torah, orally from the early PT tradition. Justin’s knowledge of this Midrashic tradition, together with his recognition of LXX Jeremiah 11.19 which associates ‘tree’ with ‘bread’, and LXX Exodus 23.25 which juxtaposes ‘bread, water, and wine’, has facilitated his identification of Christ with the new Law/covenant, namely the Sacraments. The identification of the messianic symbol of ‘ruler’s staff’ with the ‘covenant of kingship’ in 4Q252 strengthens our view that Justin’s identification of the NC with Christ is rooted in Jewish traditions, since in Dialogue 86, Justin also associates ‘sceptre/rod’ with the ‘tree of life’, which is the new Law/covenant and Christ.
The findings of this thesis have an implication on the scholarly view of Justin’s use of the testimony sources. This study confirms the fact that Justin’s OT texts are often quoted from secondary sources. As far as his use of Jeremiah 31.31-32 and his OT citations in Dialogue 86 are concerned, however, his combinations and alterations of the biblical texts are related to his theological view of the NC, so that they may indicate Justin’s reworking of the OT/source material; the influence of contemporary Jewish traditions can be traced even in the upper layer of Justin’s source material

Lizzo “Truth Hurts” Co-Author Allegations
No full textFamous recording artist, Lizzo, filed a preemptive lawsuit on October 23rd, 2019 to disprove allegations that Justin and Jeramiah Raisen and Justin “Yves” Rothman deserve author credit for her song, “Truth Hurts.”Lizzo is seeking a declaratory judgment that the alleged authors have no interest in the copyright or right to share profits. The Raisens and Rothman claim that the lyric “I just took a DNA test, turns out I’m 100% that bitch”, which originated from a popular internet meme, was a part of an unreleased demo, which Lizzo recorded at the Raisen’s studio, and on the final track. Lizzo claims that Rothman believes that she will pay him to stop making accusations against her, simply because he was present at a writing session for the demo track.

Florus and Dio on the enslavement of the provinces
No full textThis paper draws attention to the unprecedented prominence of metaphors of enslavement to Rome in the historical narratives of Florus and Cassius Dio. Following an analysis of the thematic importance of the trope in their respective works, I point to further parallels in Herodian and Justin which suggest that the trope proved particularly productive in both Latin and Greek historiography in the late second and early third centuries CE. The end of the paper considers broader cultural developments that might underlie this phenomenon, notably the proliferation of dominus as an epithet for the emperor and the ongoing enfranchisement of provincials.Peer reviewe

Examining the effects of an intervention program concerning sport competitive theory and moral reasoning on the moral cognitive growth of freshmen /by Justin J. Barnes.
No full textDuring the fall of 2008 and the spring of 2009, two Sports and American Society Core Discovery courses' pedagogical styles were examined to determine if there was a variation in how they effected moral reasoning development in freshmen students. One course featured an instructor utilizing a Maieutic Socratic teaching methodology while the other featured an instructor using a social constructivist approach. The mixed methods study involved 65 students with 30 enrolled in the experimental course (Male, N=22; Female, N=8) and 35 enrolled in the control course (Male, N=21, Female, N=14). However, due to transfers and student dropouts, only 13 students in the experimental course (Male, N=8; Female, N=5) and 22 students in the control course (Male, N=11; Female, N=11) were part of the final posttest. The sample was classified as: (1) experimental group with a moral reasoning education intervention and, (2) a control group, using a Social Constructivist theory style of teaching. An ANOVA using GLM procedures found no significant difference between experimental versus control Sports and American Society Core Discovery courses. Wilks Lambda: F(1,31) = 1.585, p = .221, partial eta2 = .093. However, the experimental Sports and American Society Core Discovery course group moral reasoning scores increased from Time 1 (mean = 35.41, SD = 4.85) to Time 3 (mean = 39.25, SD = 7.30) where the control Sports and American Society Core Discovery course group moral reasoning scores decreased from Time 1 (mean = 34.13, SD = 6.43) to Time 3 (mean = 32.59, SD = 10.03). Though no significance was found, perhaps instructors may be able to use these results to better pedagogical framework for effective moral reasoning development in first year courses specifically designed for college freshmen.Thesis (Ph.
