1 | Correcting the translation | Col 2:16 | djconklin | 24751 | ||
In the Greek "food or drink" is actually "eating and drinking". In the Greek "in respect to" means "in that portion of". The "Sabbath day" here refers to the ceremonial sabbaths of the feast of Trumpets and the Day of Atonement (a day of fasting so it wouldn't becovered under "feast day"). For more details see my study at http://biblestudy.iwarp.com (spent two years looking at 182 sources) |

DJConklin, I'm upset with you! I was going to do a major paper for a NT theology undergrad course and when I suggested to my prof the topic I wanted to cover he told me "Forget it; it's already been done" and showed me this site. So, I came here saw your study and read it thoroughly. I can see why my prof was impressed! I've already told half the class and my pastor about it. Oh well, I'll pick another topic. In the meantime I look forward to having a fruitful dialogue on this one! |

Thanks for your kind note Paul. What year are you in? Seminary or undergrad? Since you have to do a new study how about Gal. 4:10? |

You're welcome! We all can use an encouraging now and then-especially in this old world of sin! I just started my first year in a Bible college in Illinois. I'll run that verse by my prof and see what he says. This will be my first exegesis; how many have you done? |

There was a neat episode on Oprah in which Dr. Phil talked about with-holding medicine and it struck me that it really is true when they say "what goes around comes around"! Good luck in your studies; I remember my first year! I've done about a dozen, long and short (the latter you may hate as much as I did; but, learn to like it because it may be all you get to do when you get out!). Since I finished school I haven't had much time to do full-blown exegetical analyses; mostly word studies (like "almah"), history (like the date of the book of Daniel), and dealing with assorted claims by Bible critics (I'm on a couple of email lists). |
