Reseña del libro "What Does It Mean?: Bible Culture Revealed (en Inglés)"
Whether you're just interested in the culture of Bible times, a casual reader of the Bible, a serious student of the Scriptures, or a teacher, in the pages of What Does It Mean? you'll discover gems of hidden truths and delight in understanding previously difficult sections of the Bible.What was the intended meaning when the psalmist wrote, "I am become like a bottle in the smoke"? What exactly was "a bottle in the smoke"? The culture today is not the same as it was in Bible times. Not understanding biblical culture, customs and idioms, prevents one from understanding many verses in the Bible.There are people in parts of the world that would not understand if they heard someone say, "He threw some dogs on the grill." Here in the United States one would easily understand, but those in another part of the world may be a bit puzzled and wonder what kind of "dogs," why they were thrown, and what a "grill" is? They lack understanding of the culture and idioms. What Does It Mean? brings to light dozens of verses by explaining culture, customs, and idioms common in biblical times. In addition to understanding idioms relating to that culture, pointing out some figures of speech will prove to be very helpful as well. What Does It Mean? gives the reader insight and understanding to passages difficult to understand by explaining those verses from the perspective of the culture in which they were written. What Does It Mean? not only sheds light on over four dozen hard to understand verses of the Bible, but also offers some solid practical application for our day and time.For discounts on orders of 5 or more books, contact Michael directly from his web site, www.ConfideneAndJoy.com
