1 | Why is this verse here? | Luke 6:40 | nthnobdvs | 218529 | ||
John, I AM taking the verse in context- that's why I'm trying to understand how this verse fits in between the verses around it. To understand the larger context I think it's necesary to fully understand the smaller pieces of that structure. So to fully understand a book of the Bible you must understand each chapter, then each paragraph, verse... etc. I am trying to understand what God is trying tell us- the only way to do this is, in my opinion, to understand what He said, why He said it, and the way in which He said it; otherwise there is the danger of misinterpretation. Your thoughts were helpful, I just wanted to clarify my approach to reading/understanding the Bible. Thanks! |

2 | Why is this verse here? | Luke 6:40 | stjohn | 218530 | ||
Hi nthnobdvs, Sorry for my criticism, it wasn't really called for. Sometimes I can be very obtuse, sorry. You are right of course with your approach to understanding Scripture by first understanding the book, then chapter, then verse, thus seeing the whole picture and giving us a better view of the little pieces and how they fit together. John |
