God's Home Among Humans | 2 Samuel

- Опубліковано 17 гру 2023
- This passage about God’s establishment and protection of the Davidic kingdom was picked up for various purposes in the first-century world, perhaps most strikingly by the early Christians who applied it to Jesus. David’s impulse that God should have a grand house was right, but God had bigger plans than David had imagined. By coming in the person of Jesus, God made clear that the grand house of his dwelling is creation itself. God makes human beings in such a way that it will be appropriate for him to come himself in the person of his son and be a human among humans. This is the hope revealed at Advent.

Despite reservations about his perspective on Paul, I love listening to his insights and the thoughts on scripture.
I absolutely love this!
Jesus give me grace and endurance this Christmas. As a single mother my number one priority, are my sons. Both of them are autistic so they require a lot from me. God give me strength as I struggle to provide for them. My faith in you is still strong! Even as I struggle to pay rent every month and I struggle to buy groceries for my children, I KEEP FAITH in you LORD. Jesus hear my prayers I’m so overwhelmed and discouraged because I’m also battling lupus and have heart issues. Lord give me strength because I want to give up. 😢
3 years on and still spamming Christian channels with the same comment.

Thank you.
Thank you so much for bringing these gems to us! I've been studying Rev. Wright's material for a while and I find the "lens" through which he reads the New Testament very fruitful. I'm wondering who is the "N.T. Wright of the Old Testament"? That is, can you recommend authors that offer in-depth commentary & synthesis on the Old Testament and who would have a similar overall worldview & hermeneutic as Rev. Wright?
Thank you for your kind words! Recommending specific authors is challenging due to the diversity in Old Testament scholarship. Engaging in theology and asking your question in our community group on Admirato.org would be a great option! Many on our forum have read Prof. Wright's works alongside Old Testament scholars and would be happy to offer options: www.admirato.org/products/communities/discussion
That would be Tim Mackie of the Bible Project.
Mr.Wright, what version of the Bible do you use? Thank you.
In addition to the Hebrew/Greek texts, Prof. Wright often reads from the NRSV for the Old Testament and his translation, the Kingdom New Testament.
sorry for being so off topic...does anyone know why Prof Wright wears gloves so often? I have reynauds syndrome and thought maybe he does as well.
Your thoughtfulness of Professor Wright is kind. He has been using compression gloves to ease arthritis discomfort, but we're glad to share that the condition has improved. Thank you for asking
Amen
