Psalm 82:1-8
By Steve Bradbury
Introduction It is widely believed that there are three taboo subjects not suitable for discussion in public

One sees this meaning in 2 Kings 4:26, where the Shunamite woman was asked by Elisha’s servant if it was well with her, her husband and child. In the original Hebrew text [...]

Only Luke records an extended travel narrative over ten chapters. The reader learns that Jesus and his disciples travel to Jerusalem but then Luke proceeds to tell little about the actual journey. There is hardly any information on travel stops, lodgings, provisions, and so on. The story teller Luke is more interested in Jesus’ teaching [...]
