I really appreciate the enthusiasm to dwell in the Scriptures even when we struggle to understand them. 😎 This video got me excited to go read some poetry.
I live in Mexico. I wrote four books about the deep literary structure of the Bible, and it is closely related with rhetorical Hebrew divaices. I'd like to publish my books with Zondervan, but it is ver expensive for me now.
So true! When I read in an updated version, I seem to miss the rhythm. I’m being successful in memorizing the Psalms in King James. Thanks for your steps.
Your comments are insightful of the truth about poetry. I share in your understanding of the point about love in expression through words. I can truly relate to how I express my hearts love towards Jesus, so I write. ❤️🙏📖
Amazing! This whole video on poetry in the Sacred Scripture and not a word about analogical reality (universals) which link our understanding with the eternal truths expressed by God.
@@gianni206 Universals are those concepts which bridge the gap between material and spiritual reality, like "the arm of God." We know God does not have a material arm, but He does use His power as we use our arm; that is, He intentionally acts to intervene in some context. This use of the word "arm" is analogical and therefore poetical, because poetry is the art of analogy. All spiritual realities have material references by which we can recognize them and what they do, like God's arm and His eye and that the spiritual salvation of man is like the physical salvation of a drowning man....etc. This realm of analogy is the spiritual overlay of all the texts of Sacred Scripture. But the cult of "literalists" seem to deny this dimension of Sacred Scripture and in doing so, strip God's Word of much of its meaning.
I appreciate your desire to reach the source. With so many courses lead by Jewish and Israeli teachers - the people to whom God has delivered His oracles - why would I want to be taught by you? Just asking.

That's good, right? I think it is.

Thank you for your sharing!
You have opened my eyes. (From South Africa)
Beautifully explained
thanks for your words.
Read it for 5 years… that’s profound

Translation DOES matter. Think about it. I mean, is all bourbon bourbon?
