hi doc, Please may i ask, how do you know God never intended eternity and infinity of meanings to stream from the initial primary context Q this is the argument by allegory parallelism exegetes and other interpreters if Jesus is the Incarnation of the Word as flesh, then the fact he use figures of speech could lead us to realize the depth of meaning of not just the OT but also the NT, in dual and higher overtones of overlapping significance of meaning for me, this is powerful as the Bible stands alone in a class of her own, it is for me THE crystal ball where language and thought come together powerfully to give foresight and foretaste of unfolding world history and Gods will my support from www-- THIS EXCERPT FROM http www.torreys.org bible nomencla.htm 4) Philo the exegete Only in one text is Philo directly referred to as --exegete-- (though more as a description than as a title), namely in the Syriac writer Barh adbsabba cArbaya, who regards him as founder of the Alexandrian school of exegesis, and the one whose example led the great Origen astray.39 Other texts, however, point towards the same aspect of his literary activity. ... |

what is God saying to us in the world of today through this Bible pericope Job 24:12 From out of the populous city men groan, and the very life of the wounded cries for help; yet God [seemingly] regards not the wrong done them. Job 24:13 These wrongdoers are of those who rebel against the light; they know not its ways nor stay in its paths. Job 24:14 The murderer rises with the light; he kills the poor and the needy, and in the night he becomes as a thief. Job 24:15 The eye also of the adulterer waits for the twilight, saying, No eye shall see me, and he puts a disguise upon his face. Job 24:16 In the dark, they dig through [the penetrable walls of] houses; by day they shut themselves up; they do not know the sunlight. Job 24:17 For midnight is morning to all of them; for they are familiar with the terrors of deep darkness. Job 24:18 [You say]--- the above, which i asked in a previous entry, may refer to pockets of problematic violence chances, uncontrollable ones at that, in Indonesia, Pakistan, Iraq, Gaza Bosnia, etc. Bush may be injecting a lethal blow in the latest initiative of his to bring it to one Piece my opinion |

33 | all the questions in a nutshell | Ecclesiastes | mightilycalled | 198096 | ||
nutshell question can you transform the horrifying Black Hole of ageing (growing old over the decades) into a cumulatively beneficial experience? does jesus teaching here seem to provide a glimpse into the secrets of eternity, of dumping the tree of knowledge of evil and regaining Eden and the fruit of life most relevant excerpt from all before... q Perhaps instead you would care to give your input on Solomon's use of "vanity of vanities, all is vanity." Or was that the intent of your question? vanity-the quality of being futile, of it all having been done, endeavoured in vain and to no avail whatsoever, especially since as i wrote below and as Jesus taught, there is no secret life philosophy beyond the inspection of the astute disciplined Word-meditating believer mt 13 (addendum) and confronted by Christ in the sincere authentic Church jn 3:20-21 ---im not so sure of this point, this is my conviction at best now is it possible when jesus said as last words: a little while you will lose sight of me, then a little while later you will see me again that this can be reinterpreted anew as exclusionary regenerated vision for the elect alone; also cf Ecc 12:11-12---jn21:25 |

Matt 13:2 And large crowds gathered to Him, so He got into a boat and sat down, and the whole crowd was standing on the beach. Matt 13:3 And He spoke many things to them in parables, saying, "Behold, the sower went out to sow; Matt 13:4 and as he sowed, some seeds fell beside the road, and the birds came and ate them up. Matt 13:5 "Others fell on the rocky places, where they did not have much soil; and immediately they sprang up, because they had no depth of soil.

Matt 13:8 "And others fell on the good soil and *yielded a crop, some a hundredfold, some sixty, and some thirty. Matt 13:9 "He who has ears, let him hear." Matt 13:10 And the disciples came and said to Him, "Why do You speak to them in parables?"
