Christ as the Covenant: Justin Martyr's Interpretation of the New Covenant in Jeremiah 31.31-32
This 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

Additivity of derived limits in the Cohen model
We generalize the work of Jeffrey Bergfalk, Michael Hru\v{s}\'ak, and Chris
Lambie-Hanson to show that, in the model constructed by adding sufficiently
many Cohen reals, derived limits are additive on a large class of systems. In
the process, we isolate a partition principle responsible for the vanishing of
derived limits on collections of Cohen reals as well as reframe the propagating
trivializations result of as a theorem of ZFC. The results also build on the
work of the author, Jeffrey Bergfalk, and Justin Moore to show additvity
results for strong homology.Comment: 21 page

Lizzo “Truth Hurts” Co-Author Allegations
Famous 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.

G.A. Cohen on the Feasibility of Socialism
G.A. Cohen attempts to provide a case for socialism that takes into consideration the
reasons why socialism is desirable and some of the problems for its feasibility. He finds
that the kind of community sentiment that socialism requires is possible, but the devices
of social organization that can facilitate the growth of socialist sentiment along with the
effective transmission of information are not currently known. In short, Cohen thinks
social scientists and philosophers need to find out how to harness the information
transmission capacity of market exchange without the motivational encouragement of
rapacious self-interest that market exchange fosters. This paper argues that Cohen’s
appraisal of the ineffectiveness of informational transmission in socialist planned
economies in incorrect. A democratically planned socialist economy can serve as the basis
for the fostering of the socialist community sentiment that Cohen advocates along with
the required transmission of economic information
