A Pilgrim's Search

My intention with this blog is to probe a bit deeper into biblical or cultural issues that are either pestering me for resolution or, in other cases, simply issues on which others may find my discussion useful.  I have no real expectations for any of this to make any real difference in anyone’s life.  That is the realm of God acting.  If He chooses to do so, hallelujah!  If not, that’s OK too.

(NOTE: Full disclosure: I am not a Hebrew or Greek language scholar.  When studying the Bible and writing about it, I consult dictionaries and language experts to draw conclusions about the text’s original meaning in its context. So when you read me drawing a conclusion based on the interpretation of the original language, you may want to do your own research to satisfy yourself that my conclusion is the one you would come to — or not.  I do, however, find myself fast becoming what Tim Mackie calls a “Bible Nerd”.)
