• Curious, in your focus on Gal. 3:8, you point out in the Greek the same word for Gentiles and nations is "ethnos" in the NT stating that the reference back in Gen. 12:3 in the LXX would also be the same. However, when I opened the LXX to Gen. 12:3 in my LES with the reverse interlinear, it did not have "ethnos" but instead used another Greek word, "phylai". I am now confused. Is the LES wrong or does it use a different manuscript than Paul was using? Are you using a different manuscript than Lexham? I followed the instructions given in a previous video by a member of Logos Pro Team explaining how to do this and follow along. The HB Swete Edition agrees with the LES. Is the LXX like the MT and has so many variances that you have chosen some other manuscripts than the one chosen by Lexham and Swete? I am new to Logos and did not know where to post this or how to find out more info on why you would choose to differ with the LES and the HB Swete interlinear unless you have other manuscripts of the LXX that I would have to consult which I do not currently have access to. Your comments can be found specifically just after 2:45 in the video "Citations: Focus on Gal. 3:8"  Since I only have a subscription to Faithlife TV, I only have access to the videos alone and not the entire class where I could use the "Ask the Author" function. I tried the forums, then realized I might try coming here. Is this the appropriate place to ask such a question or is there a better place to Ask the Author elsewhere when one does not have the entire course to use the Ask the Author function there?  I am just trying to understand you more clearly? Thank you all at Faithlife for helping me to greater understand the Word of God!
    1. I also would like to apologize that I did not give you better reference to which video to save you time in going back to review.
    2. Ken, I appreciate hearing the focus of your own study on Israel and the nations in the Old Testament (into the New). I also like the big picture (storied) view of Eden to the fall, restoration beginning in Israel (however faulty) and then culminating in Jesus as Messiah (reversal of fall), with the final consummation in a renewed creation (new Eden). I know I filled in some of this in my own language, but I really resonate with your way of telling the story! Jeannine
    3. There are a typical sight at the front of homeroom and passage entryways in Scandia Elementary. The pails represent the adoration and fervor with which understudies get ready for school each day. While educators work to zero in on every kid's novel necessities, guardians are welcome to fill the containers with toys, books, cleanliness items and snacks to share yet presently they can visit http://training.monro.com/forum/posts/t3697-cartoon-rakhi-design to find solutions to their queries. Consistently cooperating collectively, educators then guarantee that every understudy gets an opportunity to participate in individualized advancing yet every one of them have been given some assistance along their way.
  • Hello my name is Scott Kay. I am eagerly awaiting your mobile ed course on studies of Biblical interpretation to get out of development and ready for download. In my church I teach Sunday school intermittently, but I think that I will become more involved by next year. This will be my first mobile course so I am very excited to learn as much as I can so that I can share this information with my Sunday School class. Anyway I just wanted to introduce myself and I'm sure I'll have a question as soon as I start digging into the course.
    1. Good to meet you and hear of your interest in the course. I am happy to answer questions as they arise, once you begin the course. Great to hear of your teaching in your church and the ways you want to share your learning with the group. Grace and Peace, Jeannine
    2. The course is a lot of fun so far!  The hardest part for me was the biblical inspiration portion, I have heard so many pastors say that the Holy Spirit told the author what to write, ( the dictation view) so it was a little confusing for me at first, I just didn't know there were any other theories of inspiration.  For me the supervision view makes the most sense.  I love the way I'm studying the bible now that I'm looking at it from the book level.  One last thing, my Sunday school classes are becoming very popular, mostly due to this course.  Thanks and God bless!
    3. Hi there! Glad it's helpful (and fun!). I too grew up in a church were the dictation view was taught or at least assumed by all. When I work closely with the writings of the Bible, the 'handprints' of the human authors are clearer to me. But this hasn't meant that I have lost sight of the Holy Spirit; in fact, the opposite is true. I can more easily connect with the human authorship of the Bible, AND I have a clearer sense of God's superintending of the messages they wrote. The text is truly God breathed. Thanks for checking in. Jeannine
