Through careful reading of the text, the use of some dictionaries and encyclopedias, and some common sense, anyone can learn to engage in sound biblical interpretation. The method draws on three standard approaches: behind the text (historical and cultural), in the text (literary), and in front of the text (the worldview and attitude of the reader). Bringing these three together provides a rich and clear method of biblical ...

First-century Jews converted to Christianity in droves because they understood Jesus fulfilled what was foreshadowed in their Sacred Scriptures. Because the Greek Septuagint version of the Old Testament was so Christocentric, they could easily see Jesus as the Paschal Lamb, the Last Supper as a new Passover, and Mary as the Ark of the Covenant. Other stories, too, such as the story of Jonah and the large fish, Jael and Judith, Rahab the prostitute, Boaz and Ruth, Noah’s Ark, the crossing of the Jordan, and the water from the Rock that Moses struck – were all seen as pointing to Christ, ...

We, as a civilization, were not the first to invent and detonate a nuclear weapon. You would not know that weapons of mass destruction—WMD—information is contained in the Old Testament texts because the evidence is not clear-cut and, therefore, not in-your-face type. The Bible interpreters usually employ unnecessary religious iconography to describe events that are simply irreligious. We fail to interpret the Bible according to the authors’ intended meaning. Today, it has become the fad to dismiss the well documented events in the Bible as mythological fairy tales. They do this to ...

READER, These were God’s words to Joshua, sometime after he had led Israel into the land of Canaan. I know none more applicable to the subject I want to bring before you this day.—That subject is “Missions to the Heathen, and the Church Missionary Society.” When Joshua spoke these words, something had been done by Israel, but much was left un-done.—Some tribes had received their inheritance;—the greater part were yet without it. Some land was possessed, but much still remained to be possessed.—They had everything to en¬courage them. The Lord of hosts had done great things for...

Habakkuk described an era of rampant moral and social evil among his own people, and a vision of the rapid rise of the Babylonian empire under Nebuchadnezzar. The world he described is familiar in so many eras of human history, including our own. The frightening international tensions, confusion about political alignments and alliances, fractured moral and religious traditions, and social dissolution and degradation cause the same fear and anxiety today as they did back then.

The 150 Psalms contain some of the most inspiring lines in the Old Testament: Psalm 23 "The Lord is My Shepherd" and Psalm 121 "I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills". Yet few know them as a set, and this recording, in Alex Jennings' clear performance, allows us to consider them as a whole. They are not all uplifting and comfortable. Many involve darker sentiments of revenge or punishment; many appear to be by David or about David; others are To the chief Musician upon Gittith.
