    Thanks Angela, agree with your idea of sharpening our thinking not just piling on more information. I also get the feeling as I read this that Iʻm walking in to a lab and about to blow some stuff up : )

    dude... this is just such an important thing for the church to get a hold of! sharpening our thinking is what is needed so badly! so i agree with you jesse... great minds dude...

    angela... i also appreciate how you laid this post out, particularly how you focused on the idea of creating 'vivid word pictures'. the author of the book (gary burge) does do a great job with this, and i agree that getting some good context like this around the biblical text does just that...

    good stuff!
