Here's a question I get asked about different biblical passages: "What does this mean, this or that?" The assumption is that each text from the Bible has a correct interpretation and a whole bunch of incorrect ones. In this episode I demonstrate how the Bible might have multiple--even endless good interpretations. That doesn't mean anything goes, but that's for next week! See how experience, context, and word meanings can lead to multiple good readings of biblical texts.
