Quotes by Michael D. Coogan (?)

“A tranquil mind gives life to the flesh,
but passion makes the bones rot.”

“As for the style of English adopted for the present revision, among the mandates given to the Committee in 1980 by the Division of Education and Ministry of the National Council of Churches of Christ (which now holds the copyright of the RSV Bible) was the directive to continue in the tradition of the King James Bible, but to introduce such changes as are warranted on the basis of accuracy, clarity, euphony, and current English usage.”
― Michael D. Coogan, The New Oxford Annotated Bible with the Apocrypha: New Revised Standard Version

“The term torat moshe and its variants, in several late biblical books such as Ezra, Nehemiah, and Chronicles, refers to the Pentateuch more or less as it now exists, but it is not found in the Pentateuch.”
