the Exegetical Summary series as its name indicates merely summarizes exegetical conclusions from various commentaries and grammars

if you have a problem, it is not will SIL, it is with Morris' TNTC, Mounce's NICNT, Ladd's Revelation, Thomas' WEC, and Walwoord's commentary

 

Great to hear from you i was just wondering i have not seen Alain's post lately & i get this. I trust you are well, do take care.

Every Blessings

Ted,

I am doing fine

I am keeping an eye (just one) on the forums

I am just very busy these days with school projects

I try to stay away from long discussions because it is hard for me to pull away once I get started

but sometimes I cannot resist the urge to keep George honest [:D] (it is for his own good since he is writing a commentary on Revelation) [:P]

Have a great week

Alain

That's funny George. ......I only have one leg. ....For real.

Anyhow, What I am saying is you are interested (curious a better word?) in reading it, discoveing what the others read, and said, and how it may have formed their lives. I believe interlinears do have something in them to be pondered. I am also interested in the lives of Wescott & Hort but NOT because I think they were Godly men. I'm just curious. Besides, my life expectancy is not long enough to master everything I woulld like to study.

Sorry to have gone in a bad direction.

I think W & H were godly men.  At least as godly as many of those in pulpits today -- especially the televangelists.  I can't see what you would find in an interlinear to be pondered; it has a Greek/Hebrew text and it has an English text.  The only reason I can see for owning one is to compare the English to the Greek/Hebrew.  That is better done by looking up the word in BDAG, HALOT or BDB and going through the meanings seeing how the word is used in differing contexts.  If you're going to use an interlinear, you might as well just read the English text.

My life expectancy isn't long enough to master everything I want to study either.  Looking at the history of my family I expect I will live until my mid 80's or somewhat better.  I'm already 38.  [;)]  That doesn't give me much time.

If he were telling the truth he would tell you that he is trying to drag me off into the Never-Never Land of Fundamentalism. [6]

What a blunder! The Metropolitan Tabernacle(Spurgeon's church in London) does have an ORGAN & not a Piano. I was wrong in saying piano before i get a lot of protestation from my good friends in the UK. It is an ORGAN, sorry for the confusion and wrong info. Ted

That is not Reformed.  I should know.

 

George what do you mean? what about the regulative principle? Spurgeon would not allow instrument for the reason given by our good friend. of course not all Reform guys agree with this. Truly it is found and rooted in some aspect of the Reform tradition. Dr Masters of the Met Tab (Spurgeon church in London) is sympathetic to the view mentioned by our dear friend although ( the Met Tab) they have a piano. I know of Reform Church's in the UK who take the same view basing it on the Regulative Principle & i suspect that is the case in the US. How do i know this b/cos John Frame was criticise by Reform theologians for his view on Worship. If by "this is not Reform" you mean not all agree on this then i would say - yes but i was careful to note that it was an aspect from a particular Reform point of view.

I will not argue on weather you are right that this is not the consensus in the Reformed camp today but i think the traditionalist would argue that "no instrument" was the prevailing view until recently. The Puritans allowing instruments in worship? Somehow i don't see that as being possible .You may be right but i cannot say for certain.

Yours in Christ
