Illumination: Hebrew Insights!
The goal in this journey of study is to illuminate details of God's story frequently overlooked.
You & I will do this by:
1 - Reading the Bible with better clarity,
2 - Exploring the Land of the Bible as the Fifth Gospel,
3 - Examining biblical literature, learning from theologians past and present.
As we delve into multiple facets of information—Scripture, the Land, Literature—we will come to understand why the Bible is a relevant book today!
We will uncover many truths we often miss as we rush through readings or hear in a once-a-week seating at worship;
or perhaps, you've never read the Bible.
In any case, this is the place for you!
We will explore historical contexts, translational differences, and Jewish cultural nuances that will only enrich your reading of Scripture and love of God's Story.
We will shine a light on many Jewish renderings of Scripture which is sure to ignite an insatiable desire to learn more.
Consequently, as we dig, we will illuminate the Sovereign Plan God has for humanity.
ברוך הבא Baruch Habah!
