This is part 3 of the Read the Bible For Yourself. Today is the first of two episodes on how to understand and apply the Bible. One of the greatest problems facing Bible readers today is the lifted verse. It's so common to see a verse or even half a verse posted on social media or on a sign somewhere. When most people read a random verse, they impose their own modern context and background information on it. As a result, it's easy to accidentally give a scripture new meaning that the original author never intended. How can we overcome this problem? Context. Today you'll learn about the 5 major contexts that are important to keep in mind when reading the Bible.

What does it mean to you today? Context, Context, Context Immediate context Canonical context Historical context Geographical context Cultural context Immediate Context Philippians 4:13 I can do all things through him who strengthens me. Putting this verse in context:Philippians 4:10-1410 I rejoiced in the Lord greatly that now at length you have revived your concern for me. You were indeed concerned for me, but you had no opportunity. 11 Not that I am speaking of being in need, for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content. 12 I know how to be brought low, and I know how to abound. In any and every circumstance, I have learned the secret of facing plenty and hunger, abundance and need. 13 I can do all things through him who strengthens me. 14 Yet it was kind of you to share my trouble. Canonical Context Leviticus 11:4, 74 But among those that chew the cud or have divided hoofs, you shall not eat the following: the camel, for even though it chews the cud, it does not have divided hoofs; it is unclean for you. …7 The pig, for even though it has divided hoofs and is cleft-footed, it does not chew the cud; it is unclean for you. To whom were these statements originally made? Leviticus 11:1-21 The LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying to them, 2 “Speak to the Israelites: “From among all the land animals, these are the creatures that you may eat. Historical Context Jeremiah 29:11For surely I know the plans I have for you, says the LORD, plans for your welfare and not for harm, to give you a future with hope. What were the historical circumstances in which this statement was originally made? Jeremiah 29:1These are the words of the letter that the prophet Jeremiah sent from Jerusalem to the remaining elders among the exiles and to the priests, the prophets, and all the people whom Nebuchadnezzar had taken into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon. Geographical Context John 2:13The Passover of the Jews was near, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. Does this mean Jesus was south of Jerusalem? Actually, here “up” refers to elevation, since Jerusalem is on a hill. People go up to Jerusalem regardless of the direction from which they approach. Cultural Context Abraham and Sarah (nomadic) Solomon (palace life in the United Kingdom of Israel) Daniel (palace life in Babylon) Jesus (Galilee and Judea under Roman occupation) Paul (major Greco-Roman cities) Chronological Snobbery Originally coined by C. S. Lewis, this refers to the judgmental attitude that looks at people in ancient history as unsophisticated, primitive, and inferior. Ancient people were not dumb. They were no smarter or dumber than we are. Some of their technology was rather sophisticated. Literal vs. Figurative Didymus the Blind (ad 313-398): “Abraham entered then into Egypt allegorically by adapting himself as one of the perfect to the imperfect in order to do good to them instead of holding on to virtue as a privilege, as has been said above, but in showing her to all as his sister, in humility, so that by contemplating her they might come to love her. But observe how it is said that the officials saw her. There are in fact in the ranks of the allegorically viewed Egyptians some men who are purer, who have a great capacity for perceiving virtue. And they not only perceived her, but they introduced her to their superior, that is, to the reason that governs them, and they praised her” (On Genesis 228).[1] Sadly, Didymus overlayed the historical narrative of scripture with lessons about treasuring wisdom that were obviously not present in the text. Figurative sections of scripture like Isaiah 55:12 and Revelation 12:4 are fairly obvious. Generally, it's good to interpret the historical, legal, and epistolary portions as literal unless there's a good reason not to. Review: “Exegesis” is the process by which one studies, understands, and explains what a text means. The two questions you must ask when studying the Bible are: (1) "What did this mean to the original audience?" and (2) "What does this mean to me today?" Most errors in exegesis are the result of failing to read the immediate context. Getting a grip on the context of the original writing greatly improves exegesis, including immediate context, canonical context, historical context, geographical context, cultural context, and technological context. While reading historical narratives, law, biographies, and epistles, you should privilege literal interpretation over figurative, recognizing that exceptions can happen. If you don't understand something, just keep going. Figuring out the big picture can help immensely to understand the minutiae. [1]Sheridan, Mark and Thomas C.

Eighteenth Sunday after Pentecost The Collect: Lord, we pray that your grace may always precede and follow us, that we may continually be given to good works; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen. Old Testament: Jeremiah 29:1, 4-7 1These are the words of the letter that the prophet Jeremiah sent from Jerusalem to the remaining elders among the exiles, and to the priests, the prophets, and all the people, whom Nebuchadnezzar had taken into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon. 4Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, to all the exiles whom I have sent into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon: 5Build houses and live in them; plant gardens and eat what they produce. 6Take wives and have sons and daughters; take wives for your sons, and give your daughters in marriage, that they may bear sons and daughters; multiply there, and do not decrease. 7But seek the welfare of the city where I have sent you into exile, and pray to the Lord on its behalf, for in its welfare you will find your welfare. Psalm: Psalm 66:1-11 1 Be joyful in God, all you lands; * sing the glory of his Name; sing the glory of his praise. 2 Say to God, “How awesome are your deeds! * because of your great strength your enemies cringe before you. 3 All the earth bows down before you, * sings to you, sings out your Name.” 4 Come now and see the works of God, * how wonderful he is in his doing toward all people. 5 He turned the sea into dry land, so that they went through the water on foot, * and there we rejoiced in him. 6 In his might he rules for ever; his eyes keep watch over the nations; * let no rebel rise up against him. 7 Bless our God, you peoples; * make the voice of his praise to be heard; 8 Who holds our souls in life, * and will not allow our feet to slip. 9 For you, O God, have proved us; * you have tried us just as silver is tried. 10 You brought us into the snare; * you laid heavy burdens upon our backs. 11 You let enemies ride over our heads; we went through fire and water; * but you brought us out into a place of refreshment. Epistle: 2 Timothy 2:8-15 8Remember Jesus Christ, raised from the dead, a descendant of David—that is my gospel, 9for which I suffer hardship, even to the point of being chained like a criminal. But the word of God is not chained. 10Therefore I endure everything for the sake of the elect, so that they may also obtain the salvation that is in Christ Jesus, with eternal glory. 11The saying is sure: If we have died with him, we will also live with him; 12if we endure, we will also reign with him; if we deny him, he will also deny us; 13if we are faithless, he remains faithful— for he cannot deny himself. 14Remind them of this, and warn them before God that they are to avoid wrangling over words, which does no good but only ruins those who are listening. 15Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved by him, a worker who has no need to be ashamed, rightly explaining the word of truth. Gospel: Luke 17:11-19 11On the way to Jerusalem Jesus was going through the region between Samaria and Galilee. 12As he entered a village, ten lepers approached him. Keeping their distance, 13they called out, saying, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!” 14When he saw them, he said to them, “Go and show yourselves to the priests.” And as they went, they were made clean.15Then one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, praising God with a loud voice. 16He prostrated himself at Jesus' feet and thanked him. And he was a Samaritan. 17Then Jesus asked, “Were not ten made clean? But the other nine, where are they? 18Was none of them found to return and give praise to God except this foreigner?” 19Then he said to him, “Get up and go on your way; your faith has made you well.”
On average, nearly 20 people per minute are physically abused by an intimate partner in the United States. During one year, this equates to more than 10 million women and men.1 About 2 in 4 women have experienced some form of physical violence by an intimate partner. This includes a range of behaviors (e.g. slapping, shoving, pushing) and in some cases might not be considered "domestic violence." 1These statistics do not include abuse of men. These are just a few of domestic abuse statistics on the National Statistics Domestic Violence website. Many more people do not report abuse. If these stats are true, it’s likely 1 in 4 women sitting in our church pews have experienced severe physical violence. Sadly, the place where wounded women should feel safest – the church – is the one place they are too ashamed to be transparent. In this informative but at times disturbing interview, Darby Strickland draws from years of not only studying the impact of abuse but her interaction through counseling abused women. Darby is passionate about equipping local churches to be a safe place for the abused. To go deeper, you can order her newest book: Is it Abuse?

JessB is OBSESSED with the Enneagram, and has been for over a decade, so when an opportunity to invite Lynn Turner, PhD, from the Center for Relationships came up, The Two Jess(es) couldn't wait! For those who are unfamiliar with the Enneagram, it is a way of summarizing individual temperaments and aims to lend clarity to the question: Are we nature or are we nurture?In this episode, we hear from Ms. Turner about her 25+ years working with the Enneagram, and how understanding ourselves and the way we are naturally wired can help us achieve successful relationships, both professionally and personally. Jess and Jess have a lot of fun as they identify different temperament traits about themselves, and each other. Ah ha moments are had as they begin the beautiful work of learning each other's personalities in a deeper way, as well as their own!Show Notes:Lynn Turner, Phd, LCSWDirector- A Center fro Relationshipshttp://www.ac4r.comac4alexandria@gmail.comLynn Turner is a licensed clinical social worker with both a masters and doctorate in social work. She has been the Director of A Center For Relationships, Alexandria, VA for more than 20 years. Lynn’s clinical practice includes children, adults, couples, families and groups: people of all ages. In addition, for 30 years she has been leading workshops in relationship skills and emotional processing. For our purposes today she has been teaching the Enneagram to her clients and in workshops since 1995 (25 years). Lynn will tell you her story of how she learned about the Enneagram and why she considers the Enneagram to be our innate temperament which combined with our family environment creates our personality today. In 1995 Lynn wrote a booklet on the Enneagram and updates it yearly. She is in the process of presenting a proposal for a published book based on her client, brain and energy based understanding of the Enneagram.Other interesting information about Lynn: She has had a keen interest in understanding emotions, energy and how the brain works. To this end she has studied with all the major proponents of brain research and emotions, including two quantum physicists who taught with Karl Pribram at Georgetown University (1990-1993). Lynn is also a Reiki master and chakra energy healer, both of which have increased her energy awareness. 1These studies have lead Lynn to a deeper understanding of the Enneagram: how our brain is different for each Enneagram type and how we each hold our energy differently. For instance “8” energy can be intimidating without the “8” doing anything, whereas people can almost walk through a “9” or a “2” with their gentle energy and we can be unaware of a “5” being in the room: all based on the energy emitted naturally by each Enneagram style.Support the show (http://www.paypal.com)
How do the tanna and Rabban Shimon Ben Gamliel disagree? What is aninut? Bereshit 35:18וַיְהִ֞י בְּצֵ֤את נַפְשָׁהּ֙ כִּ֣י מֵ֔תָה וַתִּקְרָ֥א שְׁמ֖וֹ בֶּן־אוֹנִ֑י וְאָבִ֖יו קָֽרָא־ל֥וֹ בִנְיָמִֽין׃ But as she breathed her last—for she was dying—she named him Ben-oni; but his father called him Benjamin.Und es geschah, als ihr die Seele ausging, denn sie starb, da nannte sie seinen Namen: Ben-Oni (Sohn meines Schmerzes), und sein Vater nannte ihn: Binjamin.Rashi:בן אוני. בֶּן צַעֲרִי: בן אוני means SON OF MY SORROW (Genesis Rabbah 82:9).What is the essence of mourning?Rambam Hilchot Avel 5:1These are the matters that are prohibited for a mourner on the first day by Torah law and on the remaining days by rabbinic law. It is prohibited for him to cut his hair, launder his clothes, wash, anoint himself, engage in sexual relations, wear shoes, work, study Torah, stand his bed upright, uncover his head, and greet others – eleven matters in total.Rambam Hilchot Sanhedrin 13:6One does not mourn those executed by the court…Although they do not observe mourning rites, they mourn [onenin], as acute mourning [aninut] is only in the heart.Ramban Torat HaAdam, Inyan HaAvelutMourning by Torah law is primarily [refraining from] indulgences, among them washing, smearing oil, and sexual relations, and tefillin, which are characterized as pe’er, and laundering, and cutting one’s hair, as these are joyful [simḥa] activities.” He continues: “Mourning, by definition, means that one should not involve himself in matters of happiness, rather in matters of mourning. And this is the mourning of the heart, from which they derived that one may not engage in matters of happiness.

Amen. Old Testament: Jeremiah 29:1, 4-7 [Alternate: 2 Kings 5:1-3, 7-15c] 1These are the words of the letter that the prophet Jeremiah sent from Jerusalem to the remaining elders among the exiles, and to the priests, the prophets, and all the people, whom Nebuchadnezzar had taken into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon. 4Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, to all the exiles whom I have sent into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon: 5Build houses and live in them; plant gardens and eat what they produce. 6Take wives and have sons and daughters; take wives for your sons, and give your daughters in marriage, that they may bear sons and daughters; multiply there, and do not decrease. 7But seek the welfare of the city where I have sent you into exile, and pray to the Lord on its behalf, for in its welfare you will find your welfare. Alternate: 1Naaman, commander of the army of the king of Aram, was a great man and in high favour with his master, because by him the Lord had given victory to Aram. The man, though a mighty warrior, suffered from leprosy. 2Now the Arameans on one of their raids had taken a young girl captive from the land of Israel, and she served Naaman's wife. 3She said to her mistress, ‘If only my lord were with the prophet who is in Samaria! He would cure him of his leprosy.' 7When the king of Israel read the letter, he tore his clothes and said, ‘Am I God, to give death or life, that this man sends word to me to cure a man of his leprosy? Just look and see how he is trying to pick a quarrel with me.' 8 But when Elisha the man of God heard that the king of Israel had torn his clothes, he sent a message to the king, ‘Why have you torn your clothes? Let him come to me, that he may learn that there is a prophet in Israel.' 9So Naaman came with his horses and chariots, and halted at the entrance of Elisha's house. 10Elisha sent a messenger to him, saying, ‘Go, wash in the Jordan seven times, and your flesh shall be restored and you shall be clean.' 11But Naaman became angry and went away, saying, ‘I thought that for me he would surely come out, and stand and call on the name of the Lord his God, and would wave his hand over the spot, and cure the leprosy! 12Are not Abana and Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not wash in them, and be clean?' He turned and went away in a rage. 13But his servants approached and said to him, ‘Father, if the prophet had commanded you to do something difficult, would you not have done it? How much more, when all he said to you was, “Wash, and be clean”?' 14So he went down and immersed himself seven times in the Jordan, according to the word of the man of God; his flesh was restored like the flesh of a young boy, and he was clean. 15 Then he returned to the man of God, he and all his company; he came and stood before him and said, ‘Now I know that there is no God in all the earth except in Israel." Psalm: Psalm 66:1-11 [Alternate: Psalm 111] 1 Be joyful in God, all you lands; * sing the glory of his Name; sing the glory of his praise. 2 Say to God, “How awesome are your deeds! * because of your great strength your enemies cringe before you. 3 All the earth bows down before you, * sings to you, sings out your Name.” 4 Come now and see the works of God, * how wonderful he is in his doing toward all people. 5 He turned the sea into dry land, so that they went through the water on foot, * and there we rejoiced in him. 6 In his might he rules for ever; his eyes keep watch over the nations; * let no rebel rise up against him. 7 Bless our God, you peoples; * make the voice of his praise to be heard; 8 Who holds our souls in life, * and will not allow our feet to slip. 9 For you, O God, have proved us; * you have tried us just as silver is tried. 10 You brought us into the snare; * you laid heavy burdens upon our backs. 11 You let enemies ride over our heads; we went through fire and water; * but you brought us out into a place of refreshment. Alternate: 1 Hallelujah! I will give thanks to the Lord with my whole heart, * in the assembly of the upright, in the congregation. 2 Great are the deeds of the Lord! * they are studied by all who delight in them. 3 His work is full of majesty and splendor, * and his righteousness endures for ever. 4 He makes his marvelous works to be remembered; * the Lord is gracious and full of compassion. 5 He gives food to those who fear him; * he is ever mindful of his covenant. 6 He has shown his people the power of his works * in giving them the lands of the nations. 7 The works of his hands are faithfulness and justice; * all his commandments are sure. 8 They stand fast for ever and ever, * because they are done in truth and equity. 9 He sent redemption to his people; he commanded his covenant for ever; * holy and awesome is his Name. 10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom; * those who act accordingly have a good understanding; his praise endures for ever. Epistle: 2 Timothy 2:8-15 8 Remember Jesus Christ, raised from the dead, a descendant of David—that is my gospel, 9for which I suffer hardship, even to the point of being chained like a criminal. But the word of God is not chained. 10Therefore I endure everything for the sake of the elect, so that they may also obtain the salvation that is in Christ Jesus, with eternal glory. 11The saying is sure: If we have died with him, we will also live with him; 12 if we endure, we will also reign with him; if we deny him, he will also deny us; 13 if we are faithless, he remains faithful— for he cannot deny himself. 14 Remind them of this, and warn them before God that they are to avoid wrangling over words, which does no good but only ruins those who are listening. 15Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved by him, a worker who has no need to be ashamed, rightly explaining the word of truth.

Keeping their distance, 13they called out, saying, ‘Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!' 14When he saw them, he said to them, ‘Go and show yourselves to the priests.' And as they went, they were made clean. 15Then one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, praising God with a loud voice. 16He prostrated himself at Jesus' feet and thanked him. And he was a Samaritan. 17Then Jesus asked, ‘Were not ten made clean? But the other nine, where are they? 18Was none of them found to return and give praise to God except this foreigner?' 19Then he said to him, ‘Get up and go on your way; your faith has made you well.'

There are 3 secrets I see homeowners keep when planning and carrying out their home renovation or building projects. These things are almost unspoken. It’s only been in digging, asking questions, and listening loads, that I’ve seen these things aren’t a one-off – but happen really regularly for many, many homeowners. These secrets are related to the hesitancy I see homeowners have around discussing money, and the details of their reno or build with others. Particularly with those who could help them stay sane, and feel far more confident and empowered in their project. There are 2 reasons why these secrets we keep can be really damaging when renovating or building our homes – and can isolate us from the help we need for our success and sanity. These reasons are: #1These 3 secrets breed ‘shoulds’. External and internal pressures that can mean we blow our budgets, and create homes for other people, not ourselves. #2These 3 secrets mean we don’t access the support, help and key information that will rocket-blast your project, and help you avoid the mistakes and drama. In this episode, I share 3 stories about women you may identify with.
