Scripture & Culture

In the series Knowing Scripture we're studying the tools and principles to properly interpret God's Word and apply the truth to our lives. Today's lesson delves into one of the most important, but also one of the most difficult topics in biblical interpretation: culture. People in ancient Israel lived much differently than we live today. Recognizing these differences is key to understanding the Bible.
