Off with his Head
We recently hosted a class session where students explored English bibles and their illustrations. One image in particular was reproduced in a multitude of variations: the heroine Judith slaying enemy general, Holofernes. Depictions of this scene from the book of Judith have been popular for many centuries, with varying levels of gruesomeness.
This image, from an 18th century narrative version of the bible features a calm and smiling Judith handing the head to her equally unbothered maid, while the neck of Holofernes gushes gore.

More INCORRECT White Interpretations of Black Culture
they again admit that they are not initiatied and in their opinion there is no requirement to be a part of an ancestral Religion, yet this is all about Ancestors Working For You - so NO,
Stop This and Learn about your Ancestors if you were not born with African ancestors, because your ancestors will be waiting for you wherever you may choose to worship them. Just Leave ATR Out of it.

Excerpt from this story from Rolling Stone:
Donald Trump won the 2024 presidential election, but the idea that he has a broad “mandate” to do whatever he wants is pretty dubious given that as of Monday he didn’t even crack 50 percent of the popular vote. Nevertheless, the president-elect’s elected followers are behaving as if the rules no longer apply — from Republican senators readying themselves to punt on their “advice and consent” role in vetting Cabinet nominations, to Oklahoma Ryan Walters Superintendent Ryan Walters ordering the state’s schools to play students a bizarre video of himself railing against the “radical left” and praying for Trump.
“President Trump has a clear mandate,” Walters told CNN on Monday when asked what gives him authority to order the video played. “He wants prayer back in school. He wants radical leftism out of the classroom. He wants our kids to be patriotic. He wants parents back in charge with school choice. We’re enacting upon that agenda here in Oklahoma.”
The video — in which Walters tells students that “woke teachers unions” are pushing “a hatred for this country” before bowing his head and praying for “President Donald Trump and his team as they continue to bring about change to the country” — has elicited outrage in Oklahoma. At least seven superintendents are refusing to play the video, and Genter Drummond, the state’s Republican attorney general, has said Walters cannot mandate schools play the video for students.
“There is no statutory authority for the state schools superintendent to require all students to watch a specific video,” the attorney general’s office said in a statement. “Not only is this edict unenforceable, it is contrary to parents’ rights, local control, and individual free-exercise rights.”
CNN’s Pamela Brown also asked Walters about a petition to impeach him that has been signed by nearly 15,000 people. Walters attacked her for “pushing a left-wing narrative” before claiming he gets his authority to order schools to show the video from the Constitution.

Framed
We found a glittering surprise when we opened this volume from 1501/02. The book contains the Latin text of the biblical book of Ezekiel, along with commentary by the 13th century Dominican priest, Hugh of St. Cher.
The decorated letter here (the only one found in this volume) has a frame border which itself echoes the framing of the biblical text by its commentary.
Biblia latina cum postillis Hugonis de s. Charo. [Basel : Johann Amerbach for Anton Koberger, 1498-1502]. (v.5)
