Bible Note: Hi Doc, So then, you think that when Jeremiah wrote that the heart of man was incurably sick, the their concept was such that if they were to cut man open, they would find a diseased organ, and that was the cause of their spiritual ills? It does not seem like you that you would, although that is what your argument demands. Myself, I give these ancients more credit than that, in understanding that the expression conveys more than what would be described as literally true. But even we Americans use "heart" not just to mean a muscle, but also the center, or root, such as "the heart of the matter" or the "heart of the earth". Well, I suppose I should stop beating. This horse stopped moving a long time ago. Love in Christ, Mark |
