Bible Book Club
Beginning in March I will do an overview of the book of Genesis.
We have several options on how to do it and I would love to have your feedback.
1. We can go chapter by chapter. Kind of like an AFF commentary.
2. We can review by subject.
3. You can randomly post what you want about this book.
If we have enough interest and partcipation we can set this up as a sub catergory here in the Library for easier access.
Please respond if this would be something you would be interested in either to participate or read only.
Thanks
I think that would be neat, and would love to see input from the likes of rrford, CS.

Me too :) and Steadfast!

I love to hear from everyone. :)

Since the interpretation of Genesis is open to conjecture it might be helpful to place it in it's historical setting and to present the history of it's divergent views.
BTW, please go thru it verse by verse.

"My" history????? :heeheehee
My problem with a lot of 'bible studies' is that it becomes a 'what does the Bible mean to me' and all objectiveness is thrown out.

Everyone has a bit of bias in them, because we all have a "viewpoint" on certain issues.

Agreed but the Word of God doesn't take that into account.

NO not yours, Bible history.

That is true. A good reason some viewpoints are up to debate.
I look forward to reading what you will contribute.

But I like the different viewpoints, I think it gives dept to understanding scripture.

As long as we realize that not all viewpoints are created equal.

This sounds like a wonderful idea. I'm sure there are many on here that would have valuable input.
I vote for verse by verse. Just like the Jimmie Swaggert Bible.

Is there anything else like it out there?

I think there are FAR better study bibles available. I've seen the ESB and it is WAY too dispensational for me.

I hear that the Bible is black print and JS' notes are in red print. So when we get to the NT the words of Christ are in black and the words of the Envangelist Jimmy are in red

Do a verse by verse, or at least a context by context.

JS words are more important.

It is here in the library, but I am going to move it back to the fellowship hall for awhile.
