Bible Note: Hi Tim, While you are honing your Hebrew skills will you (as an aside here) talk about how things are exalted. For instance you talk of Joshua being exalted in the eyes of Israel. The choice of "eyes" instead of "sight" leaves open a certain amount of personal decision or discernment. In that regard, or with that in mind, would you consider with me 2 Samuel 7:23 and 2 Samuel 8:13. How do you translate or interpret the idea of "making a name" or being exalted in someone's eyes in these two verses in 2 Samuel? Is God making a name for Himself or for the people? Could it read simply "to make a name" for verse 23? From the heart, Ray |
