I‘ve been trying to do my Bible study from the view point of the Jewish people. This is especially true in the New Testament as Jesus was teaching and preaching to the Jewish community. We gentiles were later grafted into the church.
Knowing which word was being used when referring to God greatly enhances the understanding of a passage.
There are a lot of different names, but you aren’t left high and dry. There’s a list of the names, what each one means and the pronunciation in the front of the Bible.
I know this doesn’t have anything to do with the content, but I really like the pages. They feel good and are thin enough that I didn’t feel as if I were trying to handle a hug encyclopedia.
