By default the search function will return results that match any of the search terms (OR). To search for all the terms separate the terms by AND. +You can use wildcards: '*' matches any sequence of characters, while '?' matches any single character. The use of brackets allows you to group your search terms, e.g. '(Jesus OR spirit) AND God'. +To search text other than the main text, enter the text type followed by ':', and then the search term. For example, to search for the Strong's number H8077, use 'strong:H8077'. +Available text types: + +PrefixMeaning + +heading:searches headings +footnote:searches footnotes +strong:searches Strong's Numbers +morph:searches morphology codes +

These libraries may be local (e.g. a Sword CD), or remote (e.g. Crosswire's online repository of Sword modules, or another site offering Sword modules). You can manage your libraries with Add library and Delete library. + +To begin the installation or update process, select a library you want to connect to and a local Bookshelf path to install the work(s) to. Then click on Connect to library. &bibletime; will scan the contents of the library and present you with a list of works that you can add to your Bookshelf, or that you already have installed but are available in a new version in the library, and thus can be updated.

+ + +The chief purpose of the book is to bring us to the Person. Martin Luther +said we go to the cradle only for the sake of the baby; just so +in Bible study, we do it not for its own sake but for fellowship with God. + + +
John R.W. Stott, Christ the +Controversialist, InterVarsity Press 1978, pp.97, 104. +The Jews to whom Jesus spoke [...] imagined that to possess Scripture was +tantamount to possessing life. Hillel used to say, "He who has gotten to +himself words of Torah has gotten to himself the life of the world to +come." Their study was an end in itself. In this they were grievously +deceived. [...] +There is neither merit nor profit in the reading of +Scripture for its own sake, but only if it effectively introduces us to Jesus +Christ. Whenever the Bible is read, what is needed is an eager expectation that +through it we may meet Christ. +
+ + +Approaches to God's Word +Hearing and reading provide a telescopic view of the scripture while study +and memorization provide a microscopic view of scripture.

And he will be like a tree firmly planted +by streams of water, Which yields its fruit in its season, And its leaf does not +wither; And in whatever he does, he prospers. + + +The Navigators illustrate this by saying that as the thumb can touch all +the fingers, we can meditate on the Word as we do any of the first four. +Meditation is a key to revelation.

+ + +A Book that God Breathed +Heb.4:12 "For the word of God is living and active... +" Jesus said (Mt.4:4), +"It is written, Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that +proceeds [lit., is proceeding] from the mouth of God." +As we read the Bible, God's Spirit is there to speak it to our hearts in a continually-fresh way. + +2 Tim.3:16 declares, "All scripture is inspired by God [lit., +God-breathed]." Do you believe this? Before you answer, consider Jesus' attitude +toward the Scriptures. +
John R.W. Stott, Christ the Controversialist, +InterVarsity Press 1978, pp.93-95 He referred to the human authors, but took it for +granted that behind them all was a single divine Author. He could equally say +'Moses said' or 'God said' (Mk.7:10). He could quote a comment of the narrator in +Genesis 2:24 as an utterance of the Creator Himself (Mt.19:4-5). Similarly He +said, 'Well did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written', when what He +went on to quote is the direct speech of the Lord God (Mk.7:6 & Is.29:13). It +is from Jesus Himself that the New Testament authors have gained their +conviction of the dual authorship of Scripture. For them it was just as true to +say that 'God spoke of old to our fathers by the prophets' (Heb.1:1) as it was to +say that 'men moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God' (2 Pe.1:21). God did not +speak in such a way as to obliterate the personality of the human authors, nor +did men speak in such a way as to corrupt the Word of the divine Author. God +spoke. Men spoke. Neither truth must be allowed to detract from the other. ... + + +This, then, was Christ's view of the Scriptures. Their witness was God's +witness. The testimony of the Bible is the testimony of God. And the chief +reason why the Christian believes in the divine origin of the Bible is that +Jesus Christ Himself taught it.
+ +2 Tim.3:16 goes on, "and profitable for teaching, for +correction, for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be adequate, +equipped for every good work." If we accept that the Bible really is God +speaking to us, it follows that it will be our authority in all matters of faith +and conduct. + + +A Book that Works + +What will studying the Bible do for you? 1 Thess.2:13 says that the Bible +"performs its work in you +who believe."

Would it apply to +all kinds of knowledge? Find the answers by examining the first half of the +sentence, in v.31. "If you abide in My word, then you are truly disciples of +Mine... " +We see that this is a conditional promice, specifically speaking of the truth of God's word. + +The Greek word for "wind" used in Eph.4:14 means a violent wind. +"As a result, we are no longer to be children, tossed here and there by +waves, and carried about by every wind of doctrine..."One +thing studying the Bible does for us is to ground us in the truth, with the +result that we won't be easily "blown away." + +But Jesus answered and said to them, "You are mistaken [KJV Ye do err], not +understanding the Scriptures, or the power of God."Mt.22:29 +What 2 things do we need to know to be kept from error? + +God's word +God's power + + + +A Book that Wars + +Eph.6:10-18 is one picture of our spiritual armament. + +Spiritual Armor + + + +Question +Answer + + +How many of the weapons listed here are defensive weapons?5 +How many are offensive?One +Which one(s)? the word - rhema +

+John R. W. Stott, Christ the Controversialist, +InterVarsity Press 1978, pp.106-107 The truth regarding the +finality of God's initiative in Christ is conveyed by one word of the Greek +Testament, namely the adverb hapax and +ephapax. It is usually translated in the +Authorized Version once, meaning once for all. It is used of what is so done as +to be of perpetual validity and never need repetition, and is applied in the NT +to both revelation and redemption. Thus, Jude refers to the faith which was +once for all delivered to the saints (Jude 3), and Romans says, +"Christ also died for sins once for all" +(Rom.6:10, see also 1 Pe.3:18; Heb.9:26-28). +Thus we may say that God has spoken once +for all and Christ has suffered once for all. This means that the Christian +revelation and the Christian redemption are both alike in Christ complete. +Nothing can be added to either without being derogatory to Christ... These are +the two rocks on which the Protestant Reformation was built -- Gods revealed +word without the addition of human traditions and Christ's finished work without +the addition of human merits. The Reformers great watchwords were sola +scriptura for our authority and sola gratia for our salvation. +

We want to expand that now by +delving briefly into biblical hermeneutics, whose goal is to discover the meaning intended by the original author (and +Author!). While many applications of a passage are valid, only one interpretation is valid. The scripture itself says +this by saying that no scripture is of any private interpretation (2 Pe.1:20 KJV Knowing this first, that no +prophesy of scripture is of any private interpretation.). Certain rules are helps toward discovering the correct meaning; +by ignoring these rules people have brought much trouble on themselves and their followers. 2 Pe.3:16 ...in which are +some things hard to understand, which the untaught and unstable distort, as they do also the rest of the Scriptures, to +their own destruction. + +How do we go about discovering the intended meaning of a passage? Let's say your attention has been +drawn to a particular verse whose meaning is not clear to you. How do you study it out? Keep these rules in mind: + +
Rule 1 - Interpret according to the exact meaning of the words. +The more precise we can be with the exact, original meaning of the words the better our interpretation will be. +Try to find the exact meaning of the key words by following these steps: + + + + Definition + Look up the definition in a Greek or Hebrew dictionary. For verbs, the verb tense is also crucial. + + + + + Cross-reference + Compare scripture with scripture. Seeing how the same Greek or Hebrew word + (not the English word) is used in scripture may clarify or throw new light on the definition. How does the same author + use this word elsewhere? Other authors? Your reference tools may give you uses of the word in non-biblical + documents, as well. Why do we have to go to the original languages; why isn't the English word good enough? + Because more than one greek word may be translated into the same english word, and the greek + words may have different shades of meaning. + + + + +
Example 1A +Jn.20:17 "Touch me not" (KJV) sounds harsh, doesn't it? Sounds like Jesus doesn't want +to be touched now that He is risen, that He is too holy or something. But that doesn't seem right, so let's look +it up in Spiros Zodhiates' The Complete Word Study New Testament (AMG Publishers, 1991). + +Definition: Turning to John 20:17, above the word "Touch" we see "pim680." The letters +give us a code for the part of speech, and the number refers to Strong's dictionary reference. Let's look up +the definition (p. 879). "680. Haptomai; from hapto (681), touch. Refers to such handling of an object as to exert a modifying +influence upon it... Distinguished from pselaphao (5584), which actually only means to touch the surface of something. " Now look +up "pim." The grammar codes in Zodhiates come right after Revelation; on p. 849 we see that pim stands for +"present imperative active (80)". On p.857, "Present Imperative. In the active voice, it may indicate a command to do +something in the future which involves continuous or repeated action or, when it is negated, a command to stop doing something. " This +is a negative command, so it is to stop doing something that is already occuring. So, what have we found? +Mary is already clinging to Jesus, and he is saying to stop holding him! +
+ +
Example 1B +In James 5:14, Elders are told to pray and anoint someone who is sick. What is this anointing? +Definition of aleipho (218) - "to oil" (Strong's); but we also have another Greek word translated +"anoint", chrio (5548) - "to smear or rub with oil, i.e. to consecrate to an office or religious service" (Strong's). + Since it's a verb, consider the tense also, "apta" aorist participle active. "The aorist participle expresses simple action, +as opposed to continuous action...When its relaitonship to the main verb is temporal, it usually signifies action prior to that of the main +verb." (Zodhiates p.851) + + +Cross-references for aleipho: + + Mt.6:17 But you, when you fast, anoint your head + Mk.16:1 [the women] brought spices that they might come and anoint Him. + Mk.6:13 And they were...anointing with oil many sick people and healing them. + Lk.7:38 [...] kissing His feet and anointing them with the perfume + Jn.12:3 Mary [...] anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped them with her hair + + + +Cross-references of chrio: + + Lk.4:18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because He has anointed me to preach [...] + Acts 4:27 Jesus, whom Thou hast anointed + Acts 10:38 God anointed Jesus with the Holy Ghost and power + 2 Cor.1:21 Now He who...anointed us is God + + + + +So what's the difference between aleipho and chrio? Look back over the cross-references and the +definitions, and sum up the difference: "aleipho" is a practical use of oil and "chrio" is a spiritual + +As an illustration (although the word is not used) of the practical use of oil at that time, when the good +Samaritan cared for the man beat up by robbers he poured oil and wine in the wound. So oil had a medicinal +use in Jesus' day. + +Now let's apply what we just learned by this word study to James 5:14 "Is any among you sick? Let +him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the +Lord." Is "anointing" spiritual or practical? Practical! + +And the tense in Greek, the aorist participle, would +be better translated "having anointed," so the order is the anointing first, then the prayer ("in the name of the +Lord"refers to the prayer, not the anointing). James 5 is saying that the elders should give the sick person +medicine and pray for him in the name of the Lord. Doesn't that express a beautiful balance of practical and +spiritual in our God! + +
+
+ +
+Rule 2 - Interpret within the biblical +context +Interpret scripture in harmony with other scripture. What do the +verses on each side say? What is the theme of the chapter? the book? Does your interpretation fit with these? If not, +it is flawed. Usually, the context supplies what we need to correctly interpret the passage. Context is key. If +confusion remains as to the meaning after we have interpreted the text within its context, we have to look further. + +
Example 2A +In a previous lesson we considered Jn.3:5 "born of water and the Spirit." In context, what is +the water under discussion here? +Water baptism is not under discussion here, which would be a big switch from the subject being +discussed by Jesus and Nicodemus. Watch out for a sudden change of topic, it may be a clue that your +interpretation has been derailed! The water is the amniotic fluid, "born of water" = natural birth. +
+
Example 2B +1 Cor.14:34 Let the women keep silent in the churches has to be taken within the biblical +context of 1 Cor.11:5 every woman [...] while praying or prophesying [...] +
+
Example 2C +Acts 2:38 And Peter said to them, "Repent, +and let each of you be baptized in the name of +Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins [...]". Is this teaching baptismal regeneration? If this was the +only verse of scripture we had, we would have to conclude that. But in the light of the clear teaching +elsewhere that regeneration happens by faith in Christ, we have to interpret it otherwise. Peter is urging +baptism as a way for his hearers to respond to the gospel. If baptism were the pathway to being born again, +how could Paul write 1 Cor.1:17 "For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel"? + +
+
+ +
+Rule 3 - Interpret within the historical and cultural context + +At first we are not asking What does it mean to me? but What did it mean to the original readers?; later we can ask, What does it mean to me?. +We have to take into account the historical and cultural background of the author and the recipients. + +
Example 3A 3 days & 3 nights (Mt.12:40) have +led some to come up with a "Wednesday crucifixion theory," +esp. the cult of Armstrongism. How could Jesus die on Friday afternoon and rise Sunday morning +yet "be raised on the third day" (Mt.16:21)? Exact meanings of "three" or "days" won't help explain the +apparent contradiction. +We need an historical tidbit: Jews counted any part of a day as a full day, as we would count buckets +of water (if there were six and one-half buckets of water, we would say there were 7 buckets of water even if one was only partly full). So to the Jewish +mind, any part of a day counted as a full day, and days started at 6 p.m. and ended at 6 p.m. Friday from 3 +p.m. to 6 p.m. = day 1. Friday 6 p.m. to Saturday 6 p.m. = day 2. Saturday 6 p.m. to Sunday 5 or so a.m. = +day 3. Interpreting within the cultural context keeps us out of trouble. +
+ +
Example 3BGen.15:7-21. The historical context +is that cutting animals in two and then walking between +the pieces was the normal way of entering a contract in Abraham's day. Both parties walked between, taking +the pledge that dismemberment would happen to them if they didn't live up to their part of the contract. But +in this case only God goes thru, making it a unilateral covenant. +
+
+ +
Rule 4 - Interpret according to the normal usage of words in language +Let literal language be literal and +figurative language be figurative. And watch out for idioms, which have special meanings. + +
Example 4A +evil eye in Mt.6:23. +Rule 1, definition of "evil" and "eye" - no help here. Rule 2, context: seems to confuse us even +more. It doesn't seem to fit with what goes before and after! This should tip us off that we aren't +understanding it rightly!! +What we have here is a Hebrew idiom, evil eye. Let's look up other uses of this idiom: Mt.20:15 +"Is it not lawful for me to do what I wish with what is my own? Or is your eye envious [lit."evil"] because I +am generous [lit. "good"]?" We find that having an "evil eye" is a Hebrew idiom for being stingy or envious. +Now go back to Mt.6 and notice how this understanding ties in so perfectly to the context. +
+ +
Example 4B +Is.59:1 The Lord's hand is not short; +Deut.33:27 Underneath are the everlasting arms. + +References to body parts of God are used by Latter-Day Saints to prove that God was once a man just as we +are. Once they convince people of that, they go on to teach that we can become God just like He is! At a +lecture he was giving, a group of Mormon elders challenged Walter Martin (author of Kingdom of the Cults) +with an enumeration of verses like these. Dr. Martin then asked the Mormons to read one more scripture: +Ps.91:4 He will cover you with His feathers; And under His wings shalt thou trust. W.M. said, By the same +rules of interpretation that you just proved God to be a man, you just proved that He is a bird. The Mormons +had to laugh as they realised the ridiculousness of their position. + +
+
+ +
Rule 5 - Understand the purpose of parables and the difference between a parable and an allegory +An allegory is: A story where each element has a meaning. +Every parable is an allegory, true or false? + +Some parables are allegories, for instance, the parable of the sower is an allegory: the seed is the word of +God, the thorns are worries and greed, etc. But most parables are not allegories but simply stories to illustrate one +point. It's dangerous to get our doctrine from parables; they can be twisted to say all sorts of things. We need to get +our doctrine from clear scriptures that lay it out; then if a parable illustrates that, fine. + +
Example 5A +The parable of the widow with the unrighteous judge in Lk.18:1-8. This story illustrates one +lesson: boldness in prayer. If we draw it into an allegory, what do we have? +All sorts of violence happens to the meanings: God is reluctant to protect the rights of widows, prayer +"bothers" Him, etc.
+ +
Example 5B +The parable of the unrighteous steward in Lk.16:1-9. What is the point of the parable? Is it +an allegory? +The steward is commended for only one thing, his shrewdness in using what he had to prepare for a +time when he wouldn't have it. But he is not commended for his unethical behavior in cheating his master. +
