A GUIDE TO INTERPRETING THE BIBLE CORRECTLY
Author: Sam Oputa
Publisher: NYBookz
ISBN: 1661719198
Category : Bibles
Languages : en
Pages : 201
Book Description
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 show that they are “woke.” However, they lack understanding of plain sight knowledge. We fail to see all the technologies in the Bible, so much so, many people believe the stories are make-believe, and, on the other hand, at best, people claim to believe by faith. Facts are facts and will remain factual at all times when we start interpreting based on the authors’ intended meaning. Faith is unnecessary once you get it. The question we should be asking is: Who or what was using those advanced weapons, and why? Today, we can’t even figure out how the pyramids were built and the purpose of why they were built, so how much more figuring out the stories of the Bible? Here is a work leading to the road of no more worries. Don’t let a strategy so simple as distract, deceive and yell continue to wear you down in the various places you listen to the Bible get interpreted.This work: A Guide to Interpreting the Bible Correctly, will explain all the keys you will need for interpreting the Bible easily and correctly. The scales will fall off your eyes, and the Old Testament will come alive. However, for you to understand the events in the Old Testament, you have to push the boundaries harder than what you are used to hearing and learning. You have to unlearn and relearn a lot of misunderstood information. I have also pushed the boundaries harder than I am used to, to bring you part one of this work.

Fortress Commentary on the Bible
Author: Matthew J. M. Coomber
Publisher: Fortress Press
ISBN: 1451489706
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 4320
Book Description
The Fortress Commentary on the Bible: The Old Testament and Apocrypha and Fortress Commentary on the Bible: The New Testament present a balanced synthesis of current scholarship on the Bible, enabling readers to interpret Scripture for a complex and pluralistic world. Introductory articles in each volume discuss the dramatic challenges that have shaped contemporary interpretation of the Bible. Commentary articles set each book of the Old and New Testaments and the Apocrypha in its historical and cultural context, discuss the themes in each book that have proven most important for the Christian interpretive tradition, and introduce the most pressing questions facing the responsible use of the Bible today. The writers are renowned authorities in the historical interpretation of the Old and New Testaments, sensitive to theological and cultural issues arising in our encounter with the text, richly diverse in social locations and vantage points, representing a broad array of theological commitment—Protestants, Catholics, Jews, and others, and alive to the ethical consequences of interpretation today. A team of six scholar editors and seventy contributors provide clear and concise commentary on key sense units in each book of the Old Testament, Apocrypha, and New Testament. Each unit is explored through the lenses of three levels of commentary based on these critical questions. The result is a commentary that is comprehensive and useful for gaining insights on the texts for preaching, teaching, and research. In addition to the commentary essays on each book, the volumes also contain major essays that introduce each section of Scripture and explore critical questions as well as up-to-date and comprehensive bibliographies for each book and essay.
