Therefore I think the Strong Theme from Jud 6:20-40 {s+s+p} is that turning from idolatry comes from knowing YHVH, and that the transformation arising from knowing begins with an individual, and then flows to his household, to his community, to the nation, like ripples in a pond. Is there trouble in the land? You seek YHVH while He may be found—that is where the answer lies! ♥
Psalm 127, Chiastic Structure
Additional studies: Psalms Book Five (107-150) Index
To build: Strong’s H1129 בנה banah, bet ב + nun נ + hey ה. During the era of the patriarchs, the women of the family made a new tent panel every year, that would be attached to the existing structure, replacing an older, worn tent panel. Thus over the course of several years the entire tent was renewed. This action of building the tent is described as the house (bet) continues (nun) to breathe (to live, hey). In the same way that the physical structure of the house continues by the addition of new tent panels, the biological household or family is renewed by the addition of sons. ♥
Galatians 1, The authority of the true Gospel
Additional studies: Galatians Index
Paul’s gospel came straight ‘through the revelation of Jesus Christ,’ not from any human pedigree. God Himself gave him this authority, the same way He once called Moses in the wilderness through direct revelation, and signs following to confirm the authority of his words. Paul’s three years in the desert studying the triennial Torah portions, and their attendant Prophets and Psalms, revealed the same Jesus Paul had seen, who had been embedded there from the foundation of the world (Joh 5:46).
