Bible Question: I'm looking for passages that refer to the Word of God as any type of food, any suggestions |
Bible Answer: Hi okiemark, Matthew 4:4 is a good one; for it expresses the need for "spiritual food for thought". I have a fetish for capitalization so I'll reply to the idea of the "Word". I capitalize Bread of life in John 6:29-63. These verses show the humanity and Deity of Jesus in the Bread occurances. Completely (shown by the number 7) Man and completely God (seven more). There are other places where I am not afraid of interpreting bread with a capital. Later, Ray |
