  2. Three Guilty Parties (5:1-7)

  Translation

  5:1 Hear this, you priests!

  Pay attention, you Israelites!

  Listen closely, O king!

  For judgment is about to overtake you!

  For you were like a trap to Mizpah,

  like a net spread out to catch Tabor.

• 3. The Conduct and Duty of the Church (Ephesians 4-6)

  In the study so far, we have finished the first half of this great epistle with its clear and blessed revelation of the calling and design of the Church. We have learned something of how God planned the Church before the foundation of the world, how that, in the fullness of time, the Son of God purchased it with His own blood, and finally, how the Holy Spirit came as the deposit, or pledge, that the whole transaction will be satisfactorily completed.

  The first part of the epistle is doctrinal.

• 1. Introduction to Ephesians

  Introduction

  Paul was one of a long list of godly men and women, beginning with Joseph in Egypt, whose prison experience was used by God to bring forth His praises. Here is solid evidence that God makes the wrath of men to praise Him. So testified Asaph in Psalm 76:10.

  W. M. Taylor has written what he calls The Prison Literature of the Christian Church.

• Is there a significance to Jesus folding the linen burial cloth after His resurrection?

  I am skeptical about any interpretation of Scripture which depends entirely upon knowledge that can only be gained outside of Scripture.  I’ve seen a number of variations of this theme, but it basically goes like this:  “If you knew this bit of history, or background, or knowledge known only to a particular group, then you would understand the “deeper meaning” of what this text is saying.”  I am even opposed to those who say, “If you only knew

• 2: Perspectives on Unfaithful Israel (Hosea 4:1-19)

  Perspectives on Unfaithful Israel
  (4:1-14:8)

  Having provided via his own marriage situation a visible symbolic portrayal of Israel’s failed relationship with God as well as a prophetic sketch of what lay ahead for God’s wayward people, Hosea records several oracles that detail God’s specific charges against Israel.

• De laatste der gladiatoren

  Telemachus was een monnik die in de 4de eeuw leefde. In het klooster voelde hij dat God tegen hem zei: 'Ga naar Rome'. Hij deed zijn bezittingen in een zak en ging op weg naar Rome. Toen hij in de stad aankwam, verdrongen de mensen zich in de straten. Hij vroeg waarom iedereen zo opgewonden was. Hij kreeg te horen dat de gladiatoren die dag op leven en dood tegen elkaar zouden vechten in het Colosseum. Het was namelijk de dag van de spelen, van het circus. Hij dacht bij zichzelf, vier eeuwen na Christus en nog steeds vermoorden ze elkaar, voor het vermaak?

• Le Déluge (Genèse 6:9 – 8:22)

  Introduction

  Le monde connaît peu la Bible, mais très peu sont ignorant de l’arche de Noé. Il y a des blagues, des dessins, des documentaires sur la recherche de l’arche, même des représentations céramiques. La connaissance du déluge est presque universelle, même si séparément du récit biblique du Livre de Genèse.
