“Genesis 2:18: “And the Lord God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.” It would seem that one of the greatest lies of the enemy was to guide the church into thinking that women were somehow limited in their service to
Deuteronomy 6:5 “Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, with all thy soul and with all thy might.” Matthew 22:37 “Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.” From the Greek – KJV
Genesis 44:18: “Then Judah came near unto him, and said, ‘Oh, my Lord, let thy servant, I pray thee, speak a word in my Lord’s ears…’” The word for “come near” is nagas. This has the idea of drawing near or approaching with an offering, a present or a request. The sages believe that
Genesis 2:22: “And the rib, which the Lord God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man.” This is a very well know passage of Scripture to Christians. Probably all that can be said about this passage in Christianity has been said. This has been interpreted to show
Psalms 23:6: “Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.” I found something very interesting when I did a study on the words follow (radaph) and dwell (shaveti), both words have a bridal meaning to it. The word
Deuteronomy 31:18: “And I will surely hide my face in that day for all the evils which they shall have wrought, in that they are turned unto other gods.” Yesterday my study partner and I were trying to understand why David used three different words for eternity in Psalms 119:44. Each word meant eternity, but each
Matthew 4:1 “Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.” Mark 1:12 “And immediately the Spirit driveth him into the wilderness.” Luke 4:1 “And Jesus being full of the Holy Ghost returned from Jordan, and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness.” I remember hearing
Jeremiah 31:3 “The LORD hath appeared of old unto me, saying, Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee.” “Jesus loves me this I know, for the Bible tells me so.” Karl Barth Many scholars and theologians have questioned whether the renowned German theologian actually spoke these words.
Genesis 32:7: “And Jacob was greatly afraid and distressed:” This verse almost appears repetitious. He was afraid and distressed. Does not being afraid and distressed mean the same thing? (For the sake of my Hebrew class the word for afraid is not one of your ra words) The word for afraid is yara’. This
Psalms 13:1: “ How long wilt thou forget me, O LORD? forever? how long wilt thou hide thy face from me?” Practically every modern English translation will render the word teshekacheni as forget me and the word netsach as forever. Yet, in my spirit I find this rendering troubling. Most commentators consider this hyperbolized,
