What a great idea for a blog – I look forward to more of your postings. I discovered the use of this literary device when I was doing research on a book I was writing. Whenever I come across these Chiastic forms I marvel at the work of my God. I am currently teaching a class on their use in the Scripture.
Very cool! It would be fun to teach a course on chiasmi. You’re a lucky man. Enjoy!
Love the idea. And working on a longer chiasmus this weekend.

Thanks for dropping by – and good luck on the chiasmus. If you have any or know of any chiasmi you think I should put on this blog let me know. I always give credit to those who develop or suggest chiasmi. … Happy Canada Day! God bless.
LJ,
I have been studying chiasmus for several years and have a free site at http://chiasm.ad70.net/ . I would love to talk with you as a fellow lover of chiasmus.
Looking forward to it Bryan. L.
