For All Its Worth?

The Bible is the 

God’s revelation 

 

 

and the

document written 

by human authors 

using languages 

 

 

could be understood

and historical examples 

could be dealt in the 

historical and cultural

environment. 

 

 

Then, the Bible could 

be understood with 

a little consideration. 

 

 

Because God has be

revealed to us not to be

concealed but to

be shown.

 

 

“…but this happened 

so that the work of God 

might be displayed 

in his life." (John 9:3) 

 

 

That is to mention the wisdom 

of humanity is not the key 

to understand the Bible. 

 

 

As Bible is holy, so it 

should be emphasized 

 

 

by the guidance of 

the Holy Spirit to figure

out firmly the meanings

of the Scripture. 

 

 

Because the holy thing 

should be discriminated 

 

 

by the holy and can be

understood only with

the help of the Spirit

 

 

to realize the origina

l meaning of God.

 

 

“but God has revealed it

to us by his Spirit. 

 

 

The Spirit searches all things, 

even the deep things of God.

 

 

For who among men knows

the thoughts of a man except 

the man's spirit within him?

 

 

In the same way no one

knows the thoughts of God

except the Spirit of God. 

 

 

We have not received 

the spirit of the world 

but the Spirit who is 

from God,

 

 

that we may understand

what God has freely 

given us. 

 

 

This is what we speak, 

not in words taught us 

by human wisdom 

 

 

but in words taught by 

the Spirit, expressing 

spiritual truths in 

spiritual words.”

(1Cor 2:10-13)

 

 

Otherwise, many readers

have tried to discover 

the secret words of God 

rather than the words 

of the Scripture

 

 

and the the meanings 

of historical background. 

 

 

(E.g. allegorical

interpretation; 

 

 

that is focus on the

spiritual meanings). 

 

 

That is because people 

might have forgotten 

the document of 

God’s revelation 

in those days 

 

 

otherwise might not be 

accustomed to show

expressions of the variety 

of revelation in the Bible. 

 

 

-it needs the special research, 

but should be caring about 

the understanding the 

mystical words 

 

 

or moral ethics of

ignoring these facts. 

 

 

Therefore, we need to 

understand how the old 

people figured them 

out, 

 

 

first of all what is meant 

to know what they 

were talking about

is at the present. 

 

 

To accomplish those,

the authors in this book 

emphasized that the 

readers should 

understand

 

 

the message with 

the different types

of the literature

(the genres)

 

 

that make up the Bible. 

 

 

Because, they played 

an important role of 

putting God’s revelation

on the bowl. 

 

 

This is intended to let

people know the contents 

of the Bible accurately

as the Bible shows. 

 

 

To do that this book 

presents the variety 

of methods through 

13 chapters. 

 

 

Furthermore, 

I really hope the readers

to have the opportunity

 

 

to understand the

literature in the Bible. 

 

 

The authors in this book

stressed about those are

the fundamental ways

 

 

to understand God's words

and need to be read to the 

Bible readers and interpreters. 

 

 

 

Finally, I realize hope 

the readers truly want to

be anxious about reading

the Bible to experience about 

the full revelation. 

 

 

In my opinion.

I got to know that 

the words revealed

 

 

by God showed in our thought

and minds, and also learned

 

 

that should be made research

to deliver God’s will by r

evelation forever. 

 

 

In addition, 

 

 

we should wish to receive

the gifts of wisdom

and knowledge 

 

 

to the Holy-Spirit to

be set on our hearts

 to be interpreted. 

 

 

Oh, God please let us

open our spiritual eyes 

to distinguish the truths,

 

 

and then let us see the

extraordinary things to

interpret the Bible well.

 

 

Please the Holy-Spirit

helps us to follow God’s will. 

 

 

Amen
