Reading the Bible as the Living Word of God (Episode 12)
- Part of Discover Your Roots
Episode Summary
While our modern method of determining truth is to interpret information as either true or false, the Bible takes into account another side of “truth” that may not be so simple. In our final episode of the season, we discuss the concept of truth in light of the Hebrew word “emet” used all throughout the Bible, and how this Hebraic thought pattern enriches the way we view the Word.
