  Interesting. Baptists usually don't give meaning to older church practices. Too often protestant churches are too willing to see their church space as a theater. A good book to read on this change from holy space to theater is "When Church became Theater"

  Enjoyed the behind the scenes look! At the UMC I grew up in they had an Altar Committee made up of laity who handled changing out the liturgical colors, picking up and setting floral arrangements and so on. My grandmother served on it for as long as I can remember until she couldn't get around anymore. I miss some of the formality that came with all of that, the churches I've attended since are much more plain.

  Thanks for sharing. I have only been to one baptist church and it was ran by American IFB missionaries here in the Philippines. It had a center aisle BTW. The American missionaries insisted on using the KJV bible for preaching even though most of us Filipinos can barely understand it. At our UMC church we use the NIV. My mother (R.I.P.) donated the NIV pew bibles that we still use at our church. Is your church affiliated with a denomination like the SBC or ABC? I like churches that have liturgical/high church worship services, can't stand the rock concerts masquerading as contemporary services many new churches have today.

I also go to Walter Brueggemann for Old Testament, and David Gushee for ethics. A little book written by Farris called the Ten Commandments for New Ministers is one I've used in mentoring ministerial students. So find an author and go from there!

  I always appreciate when the NRSVue highlights that the Greek is uncertain, as its an opportunity to delve more deeply into the text. Although, for this particular passage, I like the CSB's rendering best I think: "Were you called while a slave? Don’t let it concern you. But if you can become free, by all means take the opportunity." Then the CSB's footnote states: Or 'But even though you can become free, make the most of your position as a slave'

  I would say the language of the KJV is not ambiguous. The rather makes it clear the translators read it as using the opportunity for freedom. I think the ambiguity of the UE does give you the same range as the 89 NRSV; it merely replaces two possible readings with one ambiguous reading that can be read either way. I think that’s the best way of handling an ambiguous reading of the Greek.

  I know what you mean about sending books back, brother. I had two books from a historic FBC. The pastor/author had autographed both of them. He was a "giant" among Baptists back in the 1950's and '60's. I felt certain the church would be glad to receive these books as keepsakes. I never heard a word from them. Maybe they had a lot of them? Maybe the person who received them was ignorant of the church's past? Regardless, a thank you would have been nice. Oh well. Thanks for sharing the NT find.

  I love this version of the Bible. I was looking for a literary Bible and it is like the New Jerusalem Bible in that respect. I have the REB Study Bible in leather. They are as rare as hen’s teeth, and I did pay a nice price for it. I have also leather editions that I think Cambridge printed. Lovely editions of the REB New Testament are hard to find now. I have enjoyed reading from that as my portable NT. I have paid a lot for fine versions of this Bible, but as Holy Scripture states, where your treasure is is also where your heart is found. I don’t think the REB is online - you must buy a physical copy. Thanks for your video! I really appreciated it!

It has a good sized font for my ageing eyes, 2 gold ribbons, gilt edged paper, and a gold embossed vineyard symbol of the REB on the cover. The Bible does have notes from secular scholars. I do find them of use, but they are so secular and academic that some Bible readers might not like them. The Bible has 200 pages of articles that look interesting - I have not read them yet. I think this Study Bible is a bit like the NRSV Study Bible that I think is also from Oxford - I have a copy of that too. If you can find a very good condition of this leather Bible, you will not be disappointed! Typically, this Study Bible is more easily found in hardback. There are quite a few contour maps of Biblical places like Israel and surrounding Mediterranean areas. I look on Abe Books and do a search for “Revised English Bible REB”. The pickings are a lot more slim than some years ago. I am Australian, but I think people in the UK collect the REB in various nice editions, particularly if it is used in their church. Like you, I appreciated the ecumenical nature of the churches involved in its creation and production. I respect many of those churches. I am glad I found your video. It is pleasing to see that other people love the REB.

  I have this book and frankly, it's quite blasphemous. I'm not being "anti-semitic" or anything but there's a lot of stuff that contradicts biblical Christianity. It's good to have to get an insight to what they think about regarding the New Testament, and especially Jesus and His parables. Even in page 4 of the first edition, in note rergrding the virgin birth, they flat out deny that the greek word 'parthenos' means 'virgin woman.' There are a lot of things that contradict theology and the authority of Christ as being the Son of God. This is not a good book for those new in Christ, but it does provide insight to how satan has blinded the minds of unbelievers.

  My 2 cents on "skin diseases". In the greek, the word is "lepros". So, "lepers" might be a translitteration, and not a translation... and so, my question would be, what was a "lepros" affected by, in the time of Jesus? Was it just like today, an infection caused by Mycobacterium leprae? If so, then a LEPER, was someone affected by a very specific disease... to translate "lepros" by "skin disease" gives a wider meaning than the greek intended... unless "lepros" was used as an expresion for various skin diseases, back in the day... But if "lepros" was used 2000 years ago for various skin diseases, then, the NRSVue did a great job... I'm no greek expert... so... I'll try to dig some lexicons and articles... maybe there is an answer somewhere? Jesus was healing any kind of diseases... I don't see an issue though, with the rendering "skin diseases". His compassion would not have been detered by a variation of biological malfunction, at skin level...

  I find the best interpreters are people driven by an introverted cognitive process that seeks understanding (and not seeking efficiency or results) . In other words, rational introverts... not rational extraverts, not emotions introverts... The rational introvert does not take intellectual short-cuts, or rarely does... and is not afraid to dig deep, to verify something, before accepting it as TRUE, in his internal library of knowledge... the rational extraverts (driven by efficiency and results) take to many logical shortcuts based on other people's research and conclusions and are way more likely to integrate biases into their internal library of knowledge.... like some rules in a book about interpreting... 🙂 I categorize William Lane Craig in the Introverted Thinker category, and John MacArthur in the Extraverted Thinker category... and John Piper as some kind of Feeler... You can only count on 1 of those 3 to be objective enough and open enough to consider seriously alternate ideas, from those they currently hold... the 2 others will just defend with deafs ears their position...
