New Books with Miranda MelcherDavid Kroening Seitz, "A Different Trek: Radical Geographies of Deep Space Nine" (U Nebraska Press, 2023)A different kind of Star Trek television series debuted in 1993.

The crew was led by a reluctant Black American commander and an extraterrestrial first officer who had until recently been an anticolonial revolutionary. DS9 extended Star Trek’s tradition of critical social commentary but did so by transgressing many of Star Trek’s previous taboos, including religion, money, eugenics, and interpersonal conflict.

Floods, water shortages, food disruption, climate refugees and extreme weather events. They are here, we can’t ignore it.

Insights with Seitz: Symphony of ScriptureTwenty-Sixth Sunday after Pentecost, November 21st, 2021We come to the end of our Lectionary Year. Every symphony has its crescendo and finale and the Sunday of Christ the King is that for the lectionary year.
All our readings look toward the end of things brought to completion by the King of Kings. David’s final words. Daniel’s final vision. Revelation’s NT version of that, much of it a recycling of OT apocalyptic visions and figures. We leave Mark for John and Jesus’ own final words to Pilate.
We begin with the last words of David. A man like other men, and...
2020-11-1814 minInsights with Seitz: Symphony of ScriptureTwenty-Fifth Sunday after Pentecost, November 14th, 2021We are approaching the end of the lectionary year B, and as noted, we have this Sunday a reading from the apocalyptic portion of Mark, which in its entirety runs for some 37 verses. Our selection is but the brief, opening portion of that.
Also as noted, the focus on the end times, at the end of the lectionary year, which has its correlates in Matthew 24 and Luke 21, continues into the first Sundays of Advent – Advent in this sense, meaning the Second Coming of Christ and not the First Coming alone. So Luke’s apocalyptic material picks up in...
2020-11-1815 minInsights with Seitz: Symphony of ScriptureTwenty-Fourth Sunday after Pentecost, November 7th, 2021In our lessons for this Sunday, the conclusion from the book of Ruth wraps up Track One’s brief summary of that marvelous brief work, and joins to it an equally uplifting psalm 127. In Track Two the reading from 1 Kings 17, Elijah and the widow from Zarephath, has been chosen to come alongside Jesus’ bold commendation of the widow, who “out of poverty has put in everything she had” into the temple treasury. Mark has aligned this brief account with Jesus’ condemnation of those scribes who love their finery, but have fleeced widows contemptuously. The Epistle reading continues our selections from Hebre...
2020-11-1813 minInsights with Seitz: Symphony of ScriptureTwenty-Third Sunday after Pentecost, October 31st, 2021I want to stop and take stock of where we are in the lectionary year. November provides the final four segments of Year B, years that typically end with the dramatic Second Coming readings from each of the three synoptic Gospels, this year represented by Mark 13. The lectionary obviously has us heading toward Jerusalem and Jesus teaching along the way, but it is in Lent that the Passion story itself is told. We have selections of readings from Mark, then, that come from chapters 11 and 12. Jesus has reached Jerusalem and triumphally entered before adoring crowds. He then turns to...
2020-11-1815 minInsights with Seitz: Symphony of ScriptureTwenty-Second Sunday after Pentecost, October 24th, 2021We have reached a major turning point in Mark’s Gospel. Indeed the major turning point. Jesus is about to enter Jerusalem to face the fate he has been promising will be his, and whose details have been given most recently down to specifics. The disciples persist in various forms of blindness and half-blindness, but doggedly he instructs them and they follow. Their fate too has been described, and it is to their credit they do not turn and head in the other direction. Not yet.
We now enter the frame passage matching the one that op...
2020-11-1815 minInsights with Seitz: Symphony of ScriptureTenth Sunday after Pentecost, August 1st, 2021The feeding of the five thousand is the only miracle recorded by all four Gospels. Our year B Gospel of Mark and the Gospel of John share as well the account of a fearsome sea crossing, which follows it, and in which Jesus comes to the disciples walking on the water. In John, this mysterious boat-less night crossing of the Sea of Galilee by Jesus leads the well-fed crowds to believe he is still at Tiberias. Searching for him and finding him instead at Capernaum, Jesus launches into a long discourse about spiritual food and the true bread from...
2020-11-1816 minInsights with Seitz: Symphony of ScriptureNinth Sunday after Pentecost, July 25th, 2021Our Gospel reading for the 9th Sunday after Pentecost has clearly omitted a major section in the middle of the sixth chapter of Mark, some 20 verses, so as to let the focus fall on Jesus boat crossing with his disciples/apostles and his compassion on the crowds seeking to be in his healing presence.
Left out here in Mark is the feeding of the five thousand, followed by a terrifying sea crossing where Jesus walks on the water and reassures his closest disciples.
This same sequence is found in the sixth chapter of...
2020-11-1816 minInsights with Seitz: Symphony of ScriptureEighth Sunday after Pentecost, July 18th, 2021When we left David last week the tribes of all Israel had rallied around him, and his kingship effectively began. Only the lame Mepibosheth from the House of Saul remained alive. This Sunday marks the movement of the ark of the covenant to Jerusalem, where there is as yet no temple, but the religious significance of Jerusalem for what will become the Davidic monarchy is being made clear.
When last we left the venerable ark it was in Kireath-Jearim, to the west of the City of David, where it had remained, we are told in the first...
2020-11-1818 minInsights with Seitz: Symphony of ScriptureSeventh Sunday after Pentecost, July 11th, 2021Our readings for the 7th Sunday after Pentecost, for 8 July, are in Track One a continuation of our walk through Samuel, paired with Psalm 48. In Track Two a reading from Ezekiel paired with Psalm 123 and the Gospel of Mark Chapter 6. And the Epistle reading for both tracks from the 12th chapter of Second Corinthians.
With the death of Saul, the drama of the final chapters of 1 Samuel stabilizes so far as David’s own health and safety are concerned. But as with aftershocks following an earthquake, the transition to his own secure rule is not yet here. A...
2020-11-1813 minInsights with Seitz: Symphony of ScriptureSixth Sunday after Pentecost, July 4th, 2021For our Pentecost readings in Track I over the past weeks, we have been supplied with four key episodes from the first 17 chapters of that book: the Call of Samuel, the Request for a King, the Selection and Anointing of David, and David and Goliath. Today we cross over the entire remaining chapters—14 all told—to the account of the death of Saul and Jonathan and David’s elegy over them.
One of the main challenges of the narration is the overshadowing fact that Saul remains King even as David has been anointed by Samuel as his replac...
2020-11-1818 minInsights with Seitz: Symphony of ScriptureFourth Sunday after Pentecost, June 20th, 2021For the 4th Sunday after Pentecost we continue our 1 Samuel readings, Epistle texts from 2 Corinthians, two short parables from the Gospel of Mark, paired with OT equivalents in the form of Ezekiel’s allegory/parable/riddle concerning the great cedar, and the Psalms of response keyed to the two different OT readings.
For last Sunday we tried to summarize the main story line of the Samuel material. In spite of grave threats from the Philistines and others, during Samuel’s long tenure Israel was faithfully preserved from attack. The people feared his passing and asked for a King...
2020-11-1814 minInsights with Seitz: Symphony of ScriptureSecond Sunday after Pentecost, June 6th, 2021For the first 22 Sundays of the Christian Year–through Advent, Christmas, Epiphany, Lent, and Pentecost and Trinity Sundays—we have followed a consistent lectionary pattern. Easter was an exception given the use of Acts as the first lesson and a roughly continuous reading through 1 John.
That pattern involves a first OT reading and Psalm which have been chosen to complement the Gospel reading for the day, and at times the Epistle as well. “In many and various ways” the OT, Psalm and Gospel selections display important relationships between God’s work in Israel and in Jesus Christ.

2020-11-1818 minInsights with Seitz: Symphony of ScriptureTrinity Sunday, May 30th, 2021Trinity Sunday is the one Sunday of the year dedicated to the mature confession, following on from the gift of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost, that God is three in one, the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. The collect for the day lines it out: to confess the true faith is to acknowledge the glory of the eternal Trinity, and in the power of the divine majesty, to worship the unity. A bit of a mouthful and sounding symmetrically algebraic and not doxology or an act of worship of the Living God, which at its heart it...

The season that shows the earthly Jesus in his ministry as teacher, healer, prophetic presence, son of God in power and in works of mercy.
