Dear 卯,
It was very interesting that we could interpret the same parable in two opposite ways. The pearl represented us or our Lord? Who was paying the high cost to purchase this pearl?
I thought this was a very interesting example to teach us to be more humble and flexible in our own interpretation of the Bible. Sometimes if a group of people could form a discussion group to share their personal interpretation of the Bible, and to learn from one another, then a so-called "The Hermeneutic Circle" would be formed, and the truth might reveal itself to this group of people through the process of mutual sharing and mutual correction...
Dear Anonymous, Peng An,
I liked your quotation of Philippian 3:8. I thought this was an excellent example of "interpreting the scripture with other scripture"
Dear JBC, Peng An,
Nice interpretation of this term 變賣. Actually you are interpreting "selling" with "changing". I wonder whether in the original Greek we could find such meaning. But in Chinese, we could interpret it this very interesting way. May be we could not do this in English. But, anyway, I would take this as a valid way of doing homiletic. The application interpretation of the scripture. Good work.
