What is the difference between exegesis and hermeneutics? It wouldn't be right to +1 for "5 Timothy 127:33", would it? ;-) |

Jesus is both the good shepherd and the gate - Is it the same parable or two different? I'm a little bit picky. But the first picture really looks like a religious one. So the only thing it is proving is that there is artists that have painted Jesus as literary the gate to the sheep. From the other one I can't say anything about the door. You are probably right, especially when @Caleb has seen this in modern days. But I will continue my quest a little bit farther. Anyway +1 :-) |

Differences in Genesis creation stories +1 I do think it's a compelling explanation even thought I don't buy into it 100%. I wonder thought what "I had a truck load of plants delivered" could possibly correspond to in the creation stories? That God placed them on earth without planting them? Of course, you can't know and I can't, so maybe it's just a stupid question. But I love if you give it a shoot. |

Differences in Genesis creation stories Coming from a tradition where the Bible is read very literal I try to do just that whenever I feel it's true to the text. But I tend to (in the light of these differences) argue that though these text certainly are "true" they are not written as "history" in a modern sense. I do believe that it's hard to find compelling reasons to merge the two stories. You can of course use the explanation that they are seen from different perspective and if we had ALL the context we would see how they fit together. But I really have a hard time seeing how they would harmonize. Though I love too... |

Differences in Genesis creation stories I belive the message is not HOW the world was made, but WHY and WHAT IT MEANS. |

“the first day of the week” in 1 Corinthians 16:2 @brilliant I will read through your edit and try to change my answer according to that. Maybe I find some time tonight :) But I would hope that someone that knew this interpretation since before would give a better answer that I probably will be able to. |

“the first day of the week” in 1 Corinthians 16:2 @MonicaCellio: You are of course completely right. I took a shortcut. What I meant was that the first day in the week in a Jewish context relates to Sunday in a Western calendar. But I didn't know that the days of week in a Jewish calendar is LITERALLY named "first day", "second day" etc. That's very interesting. |

“Day of the Lord” or “Sunday” in Revelation 1:10 And this confusion... I believe most of my congregation (myself included) might use the Swedish term "vilodagen" (day of resting) to refer to Sunday and the term "sabbath" to refer to the Jewish sabbath. But that of course is a cultural thing. |

“Day of the Lord” or “Sunday” in Revelation 1:10 Thanks Jon! I've got some help before on other passages by reading some previous answer from the site. So I thought it was about time that I contributed ;) I also made my answer a little more complete by (a) adding a reference to Rev 4 in the beginning of the answer (b) moved up a previous comment about another concept of "the day of the Lord" and (c) added your link to the answer. Hopefully more people would find this answer helpful in the future. |
