Bible Study: Lesson 1
Wednesday, February 15, 2006
Something different – did not plan for any celebration but had our hearts bent on attending the bible study class.
Wanted to have pasta for dinner but the queue was too long. In the end, we settled our dinner at Loy Kee Chicken Rice … Simple, yet nice.
During the bible class, Fr. introduced the background of St. Paul – who he was and how the letters to Romans came about. It is interesting to know and it helps in our understanding when we read the bible.
Did you know that Romans was not the first letter St. Paul wrote but it is the first to be presented after the Acts? Reason being, the people who put the bible together many many years ago had a certain way of arranging the content – first, depending if the letters were attention to a community or to individual and secondly, by the length of the letter. Hence, Romans first – coz it was attention to the community and it is also the longest letter that St. Paul wrote.
Looking forward to the next few lessons.
Thank you Lord for bringing us to the session where we can share in Your word and grow in them. I make this prayer to You through Jesus Christ. AMEN.
