Praying Through the Bible

Studying "In the Text"


Listen Later

Welcome to the Praying Through the Bible podcast, where we focus on prayer and spirituality through bible study. Today, Dr. Mark McDowell discusses the method of Bible study called "in the text." In contrast to the "behind the text" method in our last episode, which looks at historical and culture context, this method examines the text itself. This is especially helpful as we study prayer passages, looking at

  • prayer language
  • Hebrew words
  • Greek words
  • literary structure
  • symbolism
  • and more!
