If you can understand the Ancient Near Eastern intellectual context of the Bible, then you easily realize that the Scripture aims to present God’s moral character. That it may also reveal a little about history and other types of data … Continue reading →

Psalm 55

Posted on June 20, 2015 by ehurst

Echoing similar thoughts to Psalm 41 and regardless of the specific context in David’s mind, this psalm best fits the betrayal of Ahitophel, David’s trusted adviser, during Absalom’s Revolt. Even in this, we should not read Western cultural meaning back … Continue reading →

Posted on April 16, 2015 by ehurst

Salty Heart

Posted on April 6, 2015 by ehurst

I’ve often said of politics: We have no dog in this fight. Whatever you see on the political landscape is what politicians want you to see. It’s theater, deception, manipulation, but entirely bullshit. Most of the popular political causes are … Continue reading →

Psalm 41

Posted on March 14, 2015 by ehurst

This psalm sounds exactly like David’s experience when his son Absalom rose to usurp the throne (2 Samuel 15). The poetry here depicts a rather sharp and painful memory still fresh in his mind. The term for “poor” here refers … Continue reading →

Activism’s Fatal Flaw

Posted on February 25, 2015 by ehurst
