Carol Meyer’s translation of Genesis reads similar to the NRSV version translation. The main difference I see comes from the neutral phrasings used for the first human prior to the “cosmic surgery‚” where the first human would become a man and a woman‚ Adam and Eve.

The DVD version of A Christmas Carol is better than the novel. The DVD shows more detail and effects. The story does not add effects or music and just does not have the effect the movie does. People get to see what the characters actually look like in person instead of having to imagine them. This is why the DVD is better. The movie and the novel are alike in some ways. They both start out saying the same thing. The first two spirits come at the same time in the movie as in the story. All the spirits
