MODULE 4: Interpreting Biblical Narrative
SESSION 18: Literally Representation and “Reality”
Biblical narrative forms two third of the whole Hebrew Bible where the remaining one third is poetic narration. When we read biblical narrative, we are reading an interpretation of the biblical events within the…

Great summary, @davidmapugilogmail-com
The text interprets itself. This is one principle that Bible students must fully accept in order to do justice to the text. When we do not have enough information in the text on which to base our interpretation, the next place to look is the immediate and broader literary contexts, then…

MODULE 3: SESSION 17: How Paul References Genesis 2
In 1 Timothy 2, Paul is making a precise comparison between Adam and Eve’s situation in Genesis 2 and 3 and male teachers poorly informing some women in Ephesus. Eve is God’s ‘ezer, and her role of bearing God’s deliverance in her body foreshadows themes of God’s provision.…

Great observation with these references. There are layers of meaning in Paul’s writings, especially when he makes references to the OT that we must always be careful to see the theological themes being addressed.

SESSION 17: The Dragon in the Waters
The tannin, or mythical sea dragon, is created on the fifth day along with other sea creatures. In Scripture it symbolizes disorder, chaos, and death, yet the creation account presents it as nothing more than one of Yahweh’s creatures under His command. The waters…

Amen! God rules over all and is in absolute control. There is no power that can stand in his way or bring irreparable damage to his creation. This is why human fear is one of the surest indications of either a limitation in the knowledge of God, or a failure to acknowledge God’s sovereignty over all.

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,…

MODULE 3: SESSION 16: The One Becomes Two
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…

The provision of Grace part 2
The provision of God’s Grace also provides us with spiritual gifts. And even if two people has the same type of gift, God uses each once gift that He provided in its own unique ways. Same gift but unique.
Further more this lesson reveals that we are in Christ or standing in… Read more-
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…
