how cultural differences affect names in the Bible, how God’s name is treated by Jewish traditionalism, people who repent and people who don’t repent
why fringes mattered in bible times, why it matters to us, why symbolism mattered to them and us
why Jesus said we need to eat his flesh and drink his blood is explained and connected with significance for our rituals and lives today
what adds significance to our rituals is considering our roots more thoughtfully and faith in the God that saves us
understanding the significance of the cup in Bible times makes a better connection with its rhetoric and the communion cup
we need to cultivate our hatred of sin to serve God from gratitude, and not guilt, so learning about dung in the Bible, and Luke 18:9-14, helps
If we can capture God’s enormity and ourselves in contrast we can be rid of guilt and serve from gratitude
Leviticus shows high standards symbolically since we don’t have to obey much of the rules, but we have such a problem with our hearts
Leviticus has many rules and weird rules to make us realize how much we need God to change our hearts to want to obey what he requires of us today
My 2 students are nearly done wrapping up the work for my website. Check here for a few adjustments and at the bottom of my blog index in another week.
My story of forgiveness and healing is quite unrelated to envisioning the Bible world. But since our world is sin and pain infested, I suspect many will want to hear more about my personal experience. I wrote a couple of blogs about this, but mostly I focused on envisioning the Bible world. I learned lots after being in Israel, and now I can share that with you.
Now that my documentary links are all moved under the Tour Israel menu heading, I’ll see if I can get my website working better for the visually impaired. This requires a lot of work and my student may be too busy with other technical fixes. I’ll see what I can get done by the end of May, 2023.
Thanks for your interest.
