Scripture in Focus

This week, on both our websites, we will begin a new series of interspersed blog postings, aimed at increasing Biblical understanding. 

On our sister site, LivingWithFaith.org, the new series will be called “Scripture in Question” and will look at what are sometimes claimed to be “contradictions” in the Bible.

The new series on this site will be “Scripture in Focus” and will examine scriptures that are puzzling in some way, or difficult to understand, perhaps because of historical, cultural or translation issues.  Usually you can find clarification for such scriptures with extensive study in Bible commentaries and other resources, but that can be time intensive and sometimes confusing when different answers are found.  We save you time and trouble with this new series – each explanation is carefully researched and if there are varying opinions on a topic, we will compare them for you.

We think you will find both the “Scripture in Focus” and “Scripture in Question” series of posts interesting and also helpful. Look for them here and on our other site starting in a day or two.
