I. First One Thing, Then Another
II. What Is Your Reading Of It?
Luke 10:…26 God → writer → reader (hearer) We can understand it (Mt.15:10, 16) We understand it alike (Mt.24:15)
“Four score”?“Hallow”?
The beginning of the gospel of
Jesus Christ, the Son of God. As it is written in the
Prophets:
The text:a collection of letters
"Behold, I send My messenger
before Your face, Who will prepare Your way before
you.”
Meaning:result of thought
Writer, not reader, determines meaning of the text
God → writer → reader (hearer) Ep.3:4 Inkblot Dn.2 – a dream chapter Bork / Thomas To me it means…?
Then he read from it in the
open square that was in front of the Water Gate from morning…
Writers imply;readers infer
until midday, before the men and women and those who could
understand… –Neh.8:3
Readers discover; do not create meaning
Writers explain unusual usage
“Baptism” “Church” “Saint”
19Jesus answered and said to them, "Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.“ 20Then the Jews said, “It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and will You raise it up in three days?” 21But He was speaking of the temple of His body. – Jn.2:19-21
