    MODULE 3: SESSION 17: Macro-Level Repetition in Biblical Poetry

    Biblical poets frequently use intricate structural symmetry to guide readers into deeper reflection. Through patterns such as ABBA, where the first and last lines correspond and the middle lines mirror each other, they invite us to compare words,…

    The woman was created not as a lesser helper but as a vital partner in God’s plan of deliverance. Her creation is an intentional act of divine purpose, affirming her dignity and value. She stands alongside the man as an active participant in God’s redemptive work, sharing in the mission of…

    MODULE 3: SESSION 16: The Waters Above and Below

    In the Bible, water carries a striking double meaning. It can nurture and sustain life through streams, rivers, and rain, yet it can also bring destruction and death, as in floods, the sea, or the dark abyss. This dual role reveals water as both a divine blessing and a force…

    • Great summary, @davidmapugilogmail-com

      This is a great demonstration of God’s sovereignty over creation. What is a blessing for one, can be a symbol of judgment for another, and what today can be the reason for great rejoicing, tomorrow can become a tool of discipline in the hand of the creator.

      MODULE 3: SESSION 16: How Hebrew Parallelism Works

      Biblical writers frequently weave parallelism into their poetry, prompting readers to set two or more ideas side by side to see how they relate. At its heart, parallelism is both comparison and analogy: it conveys that to truly comprehend something, you must view…

      • Amen! The Lord supplies us with all that we need for life and godliness. I particularly love the point on spiritual gifts. Sometimes we feel that because we have the same gift with someone, they should manifest in the same way that we do, or we should manifest in the same manner as them. But the truth is that each manifestation will be…

        Doctrine of Salvation lesson 3

        The Provision of Grace part 1

        In this lesson it is made clear as also show in Romans 11:6 shows us that our works can not bring grace but that grace can not be grace if there was work for it involved. Grace does not have anything to do with any work to deserve it.

        Also i found it especially interesting that even…

        • Yes! The equation of grace and works has been completely missed by many. Works do not lead to grace, but grace leads to work. By God’s sovereign choice, we have been given grace for salvation and for ministry. In response to this gift of God, we do the works that have been prepared for us from the foundations of the world. So our works are…

          This all began in Genesis 1:18 where God said it is not tov for the human to be alone. Later on God created a woman using a rib of a man and when the man saw him he said “this is the bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh”. Literary it…

          In the creation narrative, days one through three establish the environments God forms, while days four through six fill those spaces with inhabitants. The structure follows an ABC A’B’C’ pattern: day one pairs with day four, day two with day five, and day three with day six.…

          MODULE 2: SESSION 14: The Tree of Knowing Good and Bad

          The knowledge of good and bad is not an immoral thing that God wants to keep from humans. When the phrase is used elsewhere in the Bible, it indicates moral maturity. This tree doesn’t represent knowledge; it represents the choice to trust God or not. Will humans let God be their…

          • I value the view that is expressed in the statement “will humans let God be their source of wisdom and knowledge”
            How very interesting it is that the thing that was chosen and also to some extent the reason for sin has become the choice we have to make.
            To choose our own knowledge above God’s knowledge or to accept His knowledge and wisdom… Read more
