Genesis and deer hunting

My brother made a patch for a wedding quilt my church put together for joanna and i that quoted Genesis 1:28 that states "And God said to them, 'Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it and have dominion over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and over every living thing that moves over the earth." Then he put a blaze orange patch symbolizing deer hunting. This weekend was opening weekend of deer hunting, and i subdued a good 10 point buck on Saturday. Bigger than last year's, but not quite as big as i thought it was when i shot.
I've been talking to a lot of people lately who are interested in how the Old Testament and New Testament go together ot how the OT is used in the NT. I'd like to highlight a bew commentary coming out by Carson and Beale on the use of the Old Testament in the New Testament. I haven't had a chance to check it out yet, but Mark Dever has good things to say, and that usually means it's good stuff. You can find it on the monergism website.

Is that the same Carson who thinks that the Mosaic Law (Ten Commandments) are no abrogated in the New Testament with Christ's Sermon on the Mount? OH BOY!

Andy, looking at buying a Mossberg 835 pump. Glad you had a good weekend of deer hunting, always nice to start the season off on a nice note.
