Paul wrote many New Testament letters but is not believed to be the author of Hebrews. F.F. Bruce (1910- 1990) was a Scottish evangelical scholar, author and educator and a leading evangelical who believed in rigorous academic study of the Bible for all evangelicals. In his writings on Hebrews, he is quoted as saying: “We may say with certainty that the thought of the epistle is not Paul’s, the language is not Paul’s, and the technique of OT quotations is not Paul’s.”

Can it be “fun” to study Exodus? Maybe the phrase should be “eye-opening” when we consider some of what we will see in this book. A burning bush. A pillar of cloud. A river of blood.

So many people begin their reading of the Bible with great intentions and they start with Genesis. I’m glad that the Year 1 PATH Journal began in John, to get us into the good habit of SOAP journaling and Bible reading. People sometimes avoid the Old Testament, thinking that it is not relevant to us today or too intimidating to read. Do not be afraid of the Old Testament; it is filled with exciting and beautiful stories of God’s people...
