Africa Activity 5 weeks agoIntroduction to the Hebrew bible- sessions 13-15
One outstanding and interseting thing that i have learned in the sessions is that poetry is away of communicationthat introduces or welcomes the reader to partner with the written word so that he can discover its mmeaning.It moves you closer to the written word so that it becomes part of you for a better undestanding.
Secondly,in poetry there is…

Africa Activity 6 weeks agoIntiroduction to the Hebrew bible
Sessions 10-12
From the lessons,one outstanding is that the Hebrew bible is a collection of many texts that are weaved together and is now seen as one. This is so because the texts are very distinct and yet they are interconnected and are giving us a one united story from the same origin.
The books are many…

A Great book indeed! The Bible is truly a collection written by different authors, yet without any disparity.

Amen and greetings
I must say, it was interesting to learn of the lives of the children of israel during those ancient times amd also to have an idea of how may years passed by as each book was written. When reading the bible, sometimes one may think event s happened day after day or within a week only to find tha it was over a span of time.…

God is God, and that is his work. Anyone attributing the Bible to man has serious issues.

Amen and greetings in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth
I cannot argue nor deny that bible study tools can be very useful when studying the word of God. Its refreshing that this chapter points out how important to study it yourself first, relying solely on the Holy Spirit to teach you the word of God before venturing out and relying on…

Study tools are very important because the Holy Spirit works with the right truth gotten from studying. So both are to be taken seriously, as you have stated!

Africa Activity 8 weeks agoI have learned that the three part structure of the Hebrew bible(Torah,prophets,writings) shaped the theological message of the readers then differently than the christian re ordering.
In the three part structure, it changes the narrative of the text. I found out that in the three part stucture arrangement more emphasis was given on the on…

Your work shows a good understanding of how the structure of the Tanakh differs from the Christian Old Testament. More Grace!

Greetings in Jesus name
I’ve heard of the Torah and Tanakh spoken of as two different books, but your reflection clearly outlines that it is one book – The old testament.

Amen and greetings in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth
I have come to understand that with regards to the bible, some versions are translated and some are paraphrased in order to make understanding easier. In order to express the nuances of another language, additional words have to be inserted only when necessary. For me, it raised a…

What you have raised is very important in that you will misunderstand many verses and passages when you are using only one version.
