Getting More out of the Bible with David Instone-Brewer
Even if you're reading the Bible every day, you may be missing -- or misunderstanding -- some of what it says.
Bible expert David Instone-Brewer recommends putting yourself in the place of the first Christians. By reading the Bible through the eyes of the people for whom it was first written, you'll better understand the meaning of the text.
How do you do that? In highlights from this 2022 interview with David, he offers practical tips for mining more gold from the pages of God's Word.
Here is an article based on the interview.
After serving as a Baptist minister, David spent over two decades as a research fellow at Tyndale House, a research library in biblical studies located in Cambridge, England. His books include Divorce and Remarriage in the Bible, Divorce and Remarriage in the Church, and three books in the Scripture in Context Series. Check out his Step Bible resource.
