Bible Question:
What is the true full meaning of Agabov. And what was and is his purpose. I know it means locust, but I want the full spiritual meaning as God says. Thank You Please send the response to bjenkin2000@yahoo.com |
Bible Answer: bjenkin - Two comments: (1) Questions posed on Study Bible Forum are to be responded to on Study Bible Forum and not by private e-mail, if you please. (2) Your question is not clear. Assuming the word (Greek? Hebrew?) you submitted means locust, then it problably means locust. period. It is almost always wrong to presume that words in the Bible mean something esoteric beyond their plain and usual meaning. If a passage is written to be interpreted as symbolic or allegorical, the context will make it clear. Otherwise, it is bad business to spiritualize Scripture in an attempt to force Scripture to say what it does not say. When the Bible speaks of locusts it is speaking of locusts, not elephants or salvation or anything else. --Hank |
