You Can Understand the Old Testament (2 Simple Ideas Help!)

69,751 Views • Aug 10, 2023 • Click to toggle off description
This session is from the BibleProject Classroom class Introduction to the Hebrew Bible taught by Dr. Tim Mackie. The entire class is available for free on the BibleProject app at classroom-beta.bibleproject.com/introduction-to-th….

How can we read the Old Testament and understand the meaning its ancient authors intended?

These two simple ideas are at the core of the process.
1. The Old Testament is an ancient text.
2. A text is intentional literary communication.

We interpret every text we read through the lens of our mental storehouse, or the "encyclopedia" of words, ideas, images, and stories stowed in our memories. But the biblical authors have their own encyclopedias from which they produce texts. So if we want to understand the authors' intended meaning, we will adapt our “encyclopedia of reception” by learning about the authors' “encyclopedia of production.” Dive into this class session with Dr. Tim Mackie and start developing tools for encountering the Old Testament on its own terms.

Huge shoutout to the people responsible for the audiovisual design of these classroom videos! Everything from the materials and lighting used in the set to the notecards on the screen to the color of clothing worn by each of the participants shows the same level of artistic care and attention to detail you see in all Bible Project’s animated videos. It just puts you in a relaxed and contemplative mood that makes the deep literary and theological content so much easier to process. Very well done!

The Bible as an Ancient Text: To approach the Bible as an ancient text, he suggests readers adopt a new sensitivity, striving to understand and respect the cultural and historical context in which it was written. Texts are Intentional: He emphasizes the importance of attentive and reflective reading, recognizing that each element of the Bible was carefully chosen and placed with purpose, urging readers to seek the intentional meaning behind each word and structure.

I'm soo humbled by these courses. Thank you Tim, for putting these in a language that I can understand. Something that always astonished me was my parents education, they were both raised in Mexico by Catholic parents. But, neither of them went beyond elementary school education. When they came to the Lord, as adults the Lord does something amazing in their understanding of the Bible, with limited reading and writing abilities. It educated both of my parents, to the point that, by the time I was an adult child, 1 of 14 by the way. We could have a proper conversation about what the Lord would reveal to them by His word. My Dad's daily routine, would be to come from work and take a break from His day and sit on his couch to read and pray. My mom's routine was getting everyone ready for the day and then getting into her reading time as well. And everytime they would be transformed; mentally, spiritually, even physically (for my Healing ministry friends 🤗). It was as if they never aged.

I am an Indian and while I do not particularly appreciate the guy mentioning Bollywood songs as “ridiculous” things, I do appreciate Tim’s maturity in explaining the cultural context of things.

Unlearning what we think we already know, is like being reborn, over and over again.

Scripture may imply a certain meaning at a certain time of my life and something completely different in another situation that I find myself in. The Holy Spirit works in a wonderful way and can guide and lead you to great understanding if one will seek Him out and listen to the guidance that He provides.
