Session 5 of introduction to the Hebrew Bible, focuses on the structure of the Hebrew Bible, and how the way the seams from each portion of the Bible connect together and point to-a coming prophet. It was interesting to learn that the end of the Torah, Deuteronomy 34:10 – 12; and the beginning of the Nevi’im, Joshua 1:1-9 anticipate a Moses-like…

Great post! Our pastor just spoke about serving with the unique gifts God has given us this past Sunday.

What I found interesting in session 4 of Introduction to the Hebrew Bible, was that the Dead Sea Scrolls were an important document to find for more than one reason. By finding the scrolls, we were able to see the technology used to make the Hebrew Bible and what they look like in Jesus‘s time. I also found it interesting that the beginning and…

Thank you for your comment and sharing the distinction question between the two. I agree. I do find it comforting that God gave us both.

Session 3 of this course focused on the ancient order set up of the scriptures. I found this interesting, because I had always the Bible being like what we have now in the same order, and never even thought that it might have been laid out differently. The Bible, that Jesus and the apostles read from was actually a set of scrolls made up of…

In session 2 of this class, I found it interesting to discover how Jesus and the disciples viewed the Old Testament scriptures or the Hebrew Bible. They viewed it as a collection of wisdom literature, that foretold the coming of an anointed one who would rescue everyone.

Jesus and the authors of the New Testament quoted the Old Testament…

Art of Biblical Words- Session 5

Session 5 of this class brought pretty much everything together from the previous sessions and emphasized that we can’t just take a word at face value or interpret it the way our modern minds would think. There are tools we can use to better understand what the author’s intended meaning was. I especially liked…

Art of Biblical Words- Session 4

Session 4 of this class focused on the fact that words have a wide range of meanings and we need context to be able to understand what the author is intending in a particular sentence or passage. It’s helpful to use a variety of translations when reading the Bible, as each one may word something slightly…

In this session, I learned what the term Hebrew Bible meant. It was not a term I was familiar with, and didn’t realize that essentially it meant the Old Testament. I think in my years as a Christian, I have actually heard some say don’t worry about the Old Testament, to just focus on the New Testament because of what Christ did. I get what…

Thank you for sharing. It is a great to reminder that we don’t have to go to another country to be effective for God, but if he leads us to, we should and can go.

The takeaway from this chapter for me personally, is that the strong focus on going into all the world does not necessarily mean a World Christian will leave their own nation to […]

Session 3 of this course focused on the languages that the New Testament and Old Testament were written in. I found it interesting to discover that although we call the Old Testament the Hebrew Bible, it was written in both Hebrew and Aramaic. It was also interesting to learn that the Greek used to write the New Testament was more of a common…

In session 2 of Art of Biblical Words, I found it interesting the idea of approaching words with an encyclopedia mindset versus a dictionary mindset. At first, I wasn’t sure what it meant but as the teacher went along, I understand more. I especially liked the illustration of an author. Their job is to create text for a reader to read. The… Read more

In session one of the Art of Biblical Words class, I was surprised to find or at least realize that although we may know the modern day meaning of most of the words in a passage, the true meaning of the passage can be lost on us or mistaken. This struck me because it’s something I never thought of. The opposite is true as well. We can read… Read more
