Oleg Woztyaev lecture interpretation of the Bible. How to read the Sacred Scripture. ProToiree Oleg Stenyaev. Interpretation about the apocalypse
All biblical names - speaking names that most often found people in some prophetic insight.
No translation is capable of revealing the beauty of the palette of biblical names and images. For the unequal meaning has what the Jewish is read when it is translated into another language (Sir. 0, 4).
Carefully reading the biblical names, we discover new horizons in the knowledge and disclosure of the secrets of the Bible, not lying on the surface of the letters and words of biblical revelation. Spirit lives; The flesh does not use nimalo. Words that I say to you, the essence of the Spirit and Life (John 6, 63).
For example, you can give two different names, which in the Russian-Slavic tradition, unfortunately, are equally translated.
Mafusal, who lived on the ground of more than all people ( nine hundred sixty nine years - Life. 5, 27) - In the Synodal translation, this name is translated as the name "Cainita" Mafusala (4, 18), the son of Mexiageel, Father Lamech (Gen. 4, 18). In fact, the name "Cainita" Mafusal is pronounced as Metusalel - "Sovy Death" (who has lived an indefinitely small number of years), and the name "Sifita" Mafusala, the Son of the Righteous Enoch, - as Matushalch - "Sesting", "Rocking Death".
"Many names are descriptive, for example: Lavevan (" White "), Dyrvey (" Curious "," Talking "), EDOM (" Red "," Redhead "), DEG (" Thoughtful "), Gever (" Man ", "Husband"), Ham ("hot"), Gaiga ("Highlander"), Highlander ("sharp"), Hires ("Deaf"), Ivry ("Jew"), Matri ("Rainy"), Kareach (" Bald "," Pleshy "), Naar (" Girl "," Otrokovitsa "). Often people were called in honor of animals: Kalev ("Dog"), Nakhash ("Snake"), Shafan ("Hare"), Holdda ("rat"), Arad ("wild donkey"), camp ("Bird"), Dvor ("Bee"), hamor ("Donkey"), etc. "
And such examples are many ...
So, the genealogion of Jesus Christ on the Gospel of Matthew:
Abraham gave birth to Isaac; Isaac gave birth to Jacob; Jacob gave birth to Judas and his brothers; Judah gave birth to Fara and Zava from Famari; Fares gave birth to Esma; Esome gave birth to Aram; Aram gave birth to Aminadawa; Aminadav gave birth to Nazon; Nasasson gave birth to Salmon; Salmon gave birth to a raid from Rahava; Vozo born Ovid from Rufi; Omid gave birth to Jesse; Jessey gave birth to David Tsar; David King gave birth to Solomon from the former Urian; Solomon gave birth to Rowama; Roveam gave birth to Avia; Avia gave birth to ACS; Asa gave birth to Josaphat; Iosafat gave birth to Joram; Ioram gave birth to Ozia; Osia gave birth to Joafam; Ioafam gave birth to ahaz; Ahaz gave birth to Ezekia; Yezekiah gave birth to Manason; Manassey gave birth to Amon; Amonia gave birth to Iosyu ... (Matt. 1, 2-10).
Usually, when the breeding of the Bible is read, then the reading in a hurry to quickly run these texts with eyes, even without guessing those spiritual secrets that are hidden in these genealogies themselves.
... Iosiya gave birth to Joachim; Joakim gave birth to the Iehonia and his brothers, before the relocation to Babylon. On resettlement in Babylon, Ihony gave birth to Salafiil; Salafiil gave birth to Zorvalevel; Zorovalevel born Aviuda; Avioud gave birth to Eliakim; Eliakov gave birth to azor; Azor gave birth to Sadoka; Sadok gave birth to ahima; Akhim gave birth to Elud; Eloud gave birth to Elyazar; Eleazar gave birth to Matfan; Matthan gave birth to Jacob; Joseph gave birth to Joseph, Mary's husband, from which Jesus was born, called Christ (Matt. 1, 11-16).
According to the very genealogy of the Lord God and the rescue of our Jesus Christ, there are three main questions:
- Why, except the name of the Blessed Virgin Mary, in the genealogy are the names of only those women who allowed sexual impurity (or were close to such a fall)?
- Why is the pedigree divided into three parts?
- Why it is said: "From resettlement to Babylon to Christ fourteen childbirth"; We think we find only 13 names?
According to the first question - about the presence of the Lord of the Lord Jesus Christ of some sinful women, - We must remember that, as you know, Lord Jesus Christ and came to call not the righteous, but sinners to repentance (Matt. 9, 13), which directly follows (in this case) from its own genealogy.
Famar ("Palma") - the sin of the bloodstream with the test (Wed. Gen. 38, 16);
Rakhav ("Wide") is the harlot from Jericho (Wed. Nav. 2, 1);
Ruth ("Friend", "Girlfriend") - an attempt to join the trunk relationship (Ruf. 3, 9).
Virsavia former Uriana ("Owl's daughter") - adultery with a living husband (cf. 2 kings. 11, 3-4). - Each of these women is the Lord of the Lord Jesus Christ in a straight line!
Blessed Jerome wrote: "It is necessary to pay attention to the fact that in the pedigree of the Savior, not a single Holy Woman is indicated, but only such of them are referred to, which hurt the Holy Scripture to show that the sinners who came for sinners (that is, Christ - O.S..), occurring from sinners, asked the sins of everyone. "
St. John Zlatoust with an exclamation calls to the evangelist Matthew (about the infamation of Famar): "What do you do, a mogood husband, reminding us by the history of the warrant of warmer? What about? It is responsible (i.e. Matthew - O.S..). If we began to list a kind of ordinary person, it would be decent to be silent about such a matter. But in the genealogion of the inclined God, not only should not be silent, but also to take advantage of this, in order to show its industrial and power. He came not to avoid shame of ours, but to destroy it. As they are especially surprised not to the fact that Christ died, but what crucified (although it is donating - but the more diligent, the more personally shows human-minded), so you can say about birth: Christ should be surprised not only because Christ should be wondering I perceived the flesh on myself and fell by a person, but also because the vicious people honored to be their affinies, without having the nimalo of our vices. So, from the very beginning of his birth, he showed that she was not bent by anything with our, hearing the challenges of the ancestors, but to look for only one - virtue. "
And all this is of great importance for us! For if, according to true humanity, Christ comes out of this genealogy, and according to the true deity (unabler) enters him, not alien to his instead, it means that he (Christ) is strong in our lives, despite its inspection. For Jesus Christ yesterday and today and forever the same (Heb. 13, 8), he and at a certain time died for wicked. For hardly anyone will die for the righteous (Rome. 5, 6, 7).
So all clans from Abraham to David fourteen childbirth; and from David before resettlement in Babylon fourteen childbirth; and from resettlement to Babylon to Christ fourteen childbirth (Matt. 1, 17).
On the second issue Zlatoust explains: "The evangelist shared all the genealogies into three parts, wanting there to show that the Jews with the change of government did not make the best; But even at the time of the aristocracy, and with the kings, and during the oligarchy were indulging in the same defects: under the control of judges, priests and kings did not have any success in virtue. "
No political speculation can protect a person from the power of sin
And it is impossible to think that the said about Jews does not apply to us, for the AP. Paul wrote about them and us (Christians) that All this happened to them (i.e. Jews - O.S.), as images; and described in the instruction of us (i.e. Christians - O.S..), reached the last centuries (1 Cor. 10, 11). - And in our time, many too much importance attach to different forms of political fiction of society. However, we see, and it is obvious - with change of reign, people do not become better. The Jews sinned and with Patriarchs (time from Abraham to David) - community-generic, or nationalist management period. Surbed and with the kings (from David to Babylon) - the monarchical period of management. Surbed and with the authorities of different religious oligarchic parties - a period of political pluralism. And anyway, Lord Jesus Christ required to come to this world, because no political and nationalist speculations could protect the person from the power of sin, the fear of death and the devil.
In Scripture and said: So you hope for a person who is breathing in his nostrils, for what he means? (Is. 2, 22); and further: Do not hope for princes, on the Son of Human, in which there is no salvation. It comes out of his spirit, and he returns his own: on that day [all] thinking his eyes disappear (Ps. 145, 3-4).
All the forms of human rule are vicious to one degree or another ... when the Jews wanted to replace the theocratic monarchy of the ordinary monarchy, then the Lord God told Prophet Samuel: ... listen to the voices of the people in everything they tell you; For they did not reject you, but rejected me, so I did not reign on them (1 King. 8, 7). And the entire period of the kings was a period of spiritual decline. It is said: because it was not committed such Easter from the days of judges who judged Israel, and all the days of the kings of the Israeli and the kings of Jewish (4 Tsar. 23, 22). That is, all these kings were so engaged in themselves, that Easter did not celebrate in all their days. Is it not a decline? Isn't that a spiritual crisis? And what to talk about other forms of government ...
Russia, although he left the godless "Egyptian captivity," but that he met her on the way to Orthodox Canaan - the cult of the Golden Taurus in the under-day desert of nihilism. And everyone wants to make ride and rejoice around this new golden "God" (idol). Now the national idea for many Russians is one - enrichment and mutual wild competition.
Orthodox Christians should be removed from collective sins of their own contemporaries and can not be solidized with them. Adultery and adulteress! Do you know that friendship with the world has a hostility against God? So, who wants to be another world, he becomes the enemy of God (Iac. 4, 4); and further: And do not convey about the century of Sim, but convert the mind update to you to learn that there is the will of God, good, pleasing and perfect (Rome. 12, 2).
St. John Zlatoust teaches: "Will you write to wealth, glory, bodily beauty, pleasure, for all other things that people are considered great - all this is only an image, and not a valid thing, phenomenon is a matter, and not constant any essence . But you do not consolidate this, says (apostle), but transform the update of the mind. He did not say: transform outwardly, but transform on the merits, showing it that the world has an outdoor only image, and virtues belong not to an outdoor, but true, essential image ... So, if you drop out the appearance, you will immediately reach the (present) image. "
Christ in the Divine entered this world, and in humanity - came out of it
According to the third question: Why is the evangelist Matthew that from resettlement to Babylon to Christ fourteen childbirth ; We believe, we only find thirteen delivery, - St. John Zlatoust explains: "It seems to me that he (ie Matthew - O.S..) Rights the time of captivity, and Jesus Christ himself, huzzling him with us everywhere. Like the blissful Jerome: "Recounting from Ihonia to Joseph and find thirteen births. Thus, the birth of Jesus Christ appears to the fourteenth birth. " In other words, Christ in the Divine entered this world, and in humanity - he left him. He joined and fully affected with us and thus became one of us (part of his own genealogion). Apostle Paul and wrote that He, being a way of God ... Has sucked himself, taking the image of a slave, having become like such men and becomes like a person; humble himself, who would be obedient even to death, and the death of the godfather (FLP. 2, 6-8).
Thus, from all the genealogies of Christ, it becomes obvious that the Son of God does not be bent of our corruption and desecration (remember the defiled women). If the Lord did not blame them, it means that he would not bend us with you. On the other hand, the fact that at the beginning of the gospel of Matthews indicates the names of the sins, there is a testimony that all this itself is written for those who consider themselves sinful and defile. You, justify yourself with law (i.e. good deeds and merits - O.S..), left without Christ, disappeared from grace, and we expect and hope for righteousness from faith (Gal. 5, 4).
So, the Gospels are written, and the Son of God came to this world for the sake of saving sinners, "We are for the sake of the person and our for salvation"!
Now consider the spiritual meaning in the translation of all the names of the genealogy of Christ in their order of 14 childbirth. As you know, biblical names were given under the influence of a prophetic spirit and, as a rule, were a characteristic for a whole generation. For never prophecy has been pronounced by the Will of Human, but His Holy Holy People, being driven by the Holy Spirit (2 Pet. 1, 21).

Mosaic meaning of the names led us to the coming of Christ and His Christmas
The spiritual characteristic of generations from Babylon to Christ was as follows: (Ihonia) - hope for resistance and statement It was possible only in God; (Salafila) - so it was necessary multiply praying; (Zorvalevel) - After all, the spirit Babylon continued to live in the people; (Avii) - But it was necessary to remember the spirit of God; (Eliac) - After all, he (Lord) could approve in truth; (Azor) - humanity needed aid; (Sadok) - He (Lord) argued in righteousness; (Ahim) - Believer became brother. For another believer; (Eliud) - it was necessary praise; (Elyazar) - help from God approached; (Matthan) - promised from God gift salvation approached; (Jacob) - Vera True could change fate and the name to everyone; (Joseph) - God himself could fill everything; (Jesus) - salvation from God came.
Such a mosaic of the meaning of different names led us to the coming of Christ and His Christmas, the discontinuity of the spiritual meaning of the expectations and experiences of the human race on the eve of the phenomenon of their salvation. The name as a symbol for biblical exegetic is a common phenomenon, the following words of the Apostle Paul can also be brought to the example: There is an allegory in it. These are two covenants: one from the Sinai mountain, referring to slavery, which is Agar, for Agar means Mount Sinai in Arabia and corresponds to the current Jerusalem ... (Gal. 4, 24-25).
As stated in Scripture: He gave us the ability to be servants of the New Testament, not letters, but the Spirit, because the letter kills, and the Spirit lives (2 Cor. 3, 6); and further: The mental person does not accept the fact that from the Spirit of God, because he honors it madness; and can not intelligible because he is necessary to judge spiritually (1 Cor. 2, 14).
OLD TESTAMENT
Introduction to the Old Testament (lecture abstract) is holy. Lion Shikhlyarov
The word "Bible" translated from Greek means "books" (in the lowland city of Biblos, papyrus was produced for ancient books). The multiple number in this title initially emphasized the structure of the Holy Scriptures of Jews, consisting of many books, but over time acquired another, majestic meaning: something like "book book", or "all books - book". After many years of atheistic ideology and during the years she came to replace spiritual pluralism, the correct understanding of the Bible becomes for an Orthodox Christian not so much a sign of education as one of the conditions of salvation. The term "Revelation" is often used in the spiritual literature.
Lectures on the Old Testament of Archpriest N. Sokolov

Bible and science on the creation of the world prot. Stephen Lyashevsky
The real experience of the theological analysis of the biblical legend is the first part of the scientific research (narrative) on the creation of peace and man. The second part of the study is devoted to solely first people on earth, the life of which is considered in the light of modern archaeological data on a prehistoric person.
In the field of geological, archaeological knowledge there are the provisions known, which are absolute truth, and there are positions controversial on which there are several judgments and theories.
Turning exclusively to the scientific data of geology and paleontology, and in the second part of the book and to archaeological research, I could, of course, freely make a choice between various hypotheses, and in some cases my personal judgments and personal judgments. About the degree of persuasiveness of this study can be judged by anyone who wants to look at the world and man from the point of view of the gloomy knowledge, about which the first pages of the Book of Genesis are narrated.
Tooth for the tooth Andrei Desnitsky
Execution, penalties, compliance with harsh laws - can this be demanded by the God of love? But it is this way that many of our contemporaries are the Old Testament, which requires "an eye for an eye, and tooth for the tooth."
Is the Old Testament Cruel? Diacon Andrey Kuraev
Today it is easier to understand the secret of Israel, rather than a hundred years ago, because for her understanding it is necessary to imagine the world in which only pagans live. It is necessary to imagine the world in which the Gospel has not yet been preached, and around the silence of magicians, sorcerers, shamans, spirits and "gods". Today it is easier to do it. Again the townspeople scare each other with damages and slogans, again stray shamans offer their services in the "spell" and "lag." Again, around the fairness of the names and masks of various spirits and deities, occult words denoting all sorts of "plans", "Eona" and "Energy". People have forgotten that you can just get up before God and without any complex rituals, spells and well-hand names say: "Lord!"
And how rarely today on book collapse can be found a book about Orthodoxy, just as rarely three thousand years ago it was possible to hear the word about one God on Earth.

"And I will tell them: if you please, then let me pay my fee; If not, - do not let it; And they will get in the payment of me thirty Srebrenikov. " No, it is not a quote from the accuracy of the unknown gospel text, describing the betrayal of Judas. All this was predicted by the Prophet Zharya, another 500 years before the Nativity of Christ. And the words about thirty Srebrenika, and others as accurate predictions of Zechariah can be easily found in any edition of the Old Testament.
But where could the Prophet Zechariah about the preparing betrayal, if he lived long before the events described in the Gospel?

Old Testament in the New Testament Church prot. Mikhail Pomazansky
Many centuries separates us from the time of writing books of the Old Testament, especially its first books. And it is not easy for us to be transferred to the one of the soul and in that situation, in which these ongoing books were created and which are presented in these books themselves. From here, bewilderment is born, embarrassing the idea of \u200b\u200ba modern person. Especially often these bewilderment arise, if desired, agree on the scientific views of modernity with the simplicity of biblical ideas about the world. General questions arise about how important the Old Testament views of the New Testament worldview are. And ask: why did the Old Testament? Isn't the teachings of the New Testament and Scriptures of the New Testament?
As for the enemies of Christianity, it has long been performing against Christianity begin with attacks on the Old Testament. And the current militant worm considers the legends of the Old Testament the easiest material for this purpose. Those who have passed through the strip of religious doubts and maybe religious denial, especially those who passed the Soviet anti-religious studies, indicate that the first stumbling block for their faith was taken to them from this area.
This brief overview of the Old Testament Scriptures cannot respond to all the questions that arise, but it seems that it indicates the guidelines in which a number of misunderstandings can be avoided.
Why bring sacrifices? Andrey Desnaitsky
Why do any sacrifices describe in the Bible? In primitive ancient paganism, of course, people thought that to the Divine or Spirit, as to the Chief, without a gift bribe, it was inconvenient. But why did the victims of the victims and the whole Universe belong to the victims? And why, finally, the death of Christ on the cross is described as a sacrifice of a special kind - who, who and why she brought it? .. ..
Why is it so smaller than the Old Testament? Andrey Desnaitsky
Opening the Bible, a person is waiting for all the great revelations. But if he reads the Old Testament, it usually amazes the abundance of small regulations: eat meat only those animals that have split hooves and who are chewed at the same time. What is all this? Is God really dealing to how people eat meat? And why are these endless ritual details: how to bring different sacrifices? Is this the main thing in religion? ...

The question of the origin of the Torah is in modern biblical one of the most complex and intricate.

Unfortunately, today there are many people in the temples who have never opened the gospel at all, or read it superficially.

Christian tradition of reading and understanding1 of the Old Testament Road for me. It has an endless meaning for us, since we are sharply feeling that for many years, if not centuries, being Orthodox, we have neglected the readings of the Books of Holy Scripture and, in particular, the Books of the Old Testament.
I think that you should start with the main statement: it is about the conviction that puts us into a certain relationship with the Great Church Tradition, represented as the Fathers of the Church and the Holy Writers of the New Testament. This belief is reduced to us to understand the Old Testament in accordance with the Apostle Pavl (Wed 2 Cor.), Namely, as a totality of books deeply and on the merits of Christian.

The book of Diacon Andrei Kurayeva, Professor of the Orthodox Holy Tikhonovsky Theological Institute, is devoted to the issue that is located in the center of the Orthodox-Protestant discussions, is the question of what place the Bible occupies in the life of the Church.

The appointment of the book is to protect people (and Protestants, and Orthodox, and secular researchers) from the too simplified understanding of Orthodoxy and explain what it makes Orthodoxy a religious tradition that is significantly different from Protestantism.
New Testament. The introductory part. Lectures A. Emelyanov

Interpretation of John Zlatoust on the Gospel of Matthew
The first and second book of the seventh volume of the collections of the creations of John Zlatoust. That is, the proposed book contains a complete interpretation of John of Zlatoust on the Gospel of Matthew.
"Matthew rightly called the Gospel. In fact, he is all - enemies, nozzles sitting in the darkness, it is an end to the punishment, the resolution of sins, justification, sanctification, redemption, riding, the legacy of heaven and affinity with the Son of God. What can be compared with such evangelism? God on earth, man in heaven; All in conjunction: Angels made up one face with people, people joined the angels and other mountainous forces. It obviously it became that the ancient brand stopped that the reconciliation of God was made with our nature, the devil is posted, the demons are expelled, death is connected, the paradise of the hole, the oath is abolished, the sin is exterminated, the delusion was removed, the truth was returned, the truth was returned, everywhere he was seen and grows the word piety ...
Interpretation of the Gospel of John Evfimia Zigaben
Compilation of patristic texts, mainly John of Zlatoust.
Men wrote about the interpretations of Zigaben to the New Testament: "It seems more independent to comment on the NZ. He tried to solve some exegetic difficulties, for example: was there three anointing of Christ peace or two? Where did Peter's renunciation happen: in the house of Anna or Kaiafa?

Interpretation about the apocalypse
Stenheyev believes "Apocalypse" (or "Revelation of John the Theologian") is the most difficult for understanding and an ambiguous biblical book. It contains revelations relating to the last times and signs of the coming of the Antichrist.
The conversion cycle of the Archpriest is recorded in the period from 2006 to 2007, when he conducted the moral sermons for parishioners. Stenheyev set itself the task to illuminate not so historical events of the apocalypse as the apocalyptic problems concerning particular human shower.
The idea of \u200b\u200borganizing conversations of such a sense originated from Oleg Viktorovich for the reason that there was a lot of books about the apocalypse, whose authorship belong to people far from Orthodoxy. The conversations were pronounced with an arreater with an expression and are recorded by parishioners using voice recorders and camcorders.
Later, they appeared on the unrest of the worldwide network in audio format. The conversations are not distinguished by a strict chronological order and consistent presentation, but they traced to the author to "reach" to modern people, stunned and "contuge" hellish rhythm of today's realities.

Video: Interpretation of the Bible
We asked visitors to our portal, whether they read and how often sacred writing. About 2000 people took part in the survey. It turned out that more than a third of them do not read the Holy Scriptures at all or do it extremely rare. Constantly read the sacred writing of about a quarter from the number of respondents. The rest is from time to time.
In the most sacred Scripture it says: "Explore the Scriptures, for you think through them to have eternal life; And they testify to me "(in. 5: 39); "Invincible into yourself and in teaching; Do simply: for, so do, and save yourself and listening to you "(1 Tim. 4: 16). As you can see, reading and studying the Holy Scriptures is imputed to the basic doing and obligation of a believer person.
With a request to comment on the results of the survey and answer the questions why the Christian is so important to constantly turn to the Holy Scriptures, how to make the norm reading and studying the Word of God, how to teach to this children, how to properly study the Holy Scriptures, whether to use interpretations, we needed to use Archpriest Oleg Stenyayev.
If a Christian does not turn to the Holy Scripture, then his prayer, not connected to reading the Word of God, most likely, is a monologue, which is not raised above the ceiling. In order for prayer to become a full-fledged dialogue with God, it must be combined with reading the Holy Scriptures. Then, in prayer, turning to God, through reading his words, we will receive an answer to our question.
In Scripture it is said that a person alone is alive with bread, but in every word emanating from the mouth of God (see: SEC. 8: 3). We must remember that a person needs not only in food physical, material, but also spiritual. The Word of God is food for our inner, spiritual person. If we do not feed a physical person, two, three, four, we will neglect care about him, then the result will be its exhaustion, dystrophy. But the spiritual person may be in a state of the distroof if the sacred writing is not reading for a long time. And then he is still wondering why he felt faith! The source of faith is known: "Vera from hearing, and hearing from the Word of God" (Rom. 10: 17). Therefore, each person is absolutely necessary to get down to this source.
Reading sacred writing, we immerse your consciousness in the commandments of God
The 1st Psalm begins in words: "Blessed husband who does not go to the advice of wicked and do not stand in the path of sinners and does not sit in a collection of depravants, but in the law of the Lord will his will, and he reflects on his day and night" (PS. 1: 1-2). Here, in the first verse, we show three positions of the human body: it does not go, it is not worth it, does not sit. And then it is said that the believer in the law of God stays day and night. That is, the people of God prompts us with whom you can not walk at the same time, with whom you can not stand at the same time, with whom it is impossible to sit together. Commandments - in the Word of God. Reading the Holy Scripture, we immerse our consciousness in the commandments of God. How David said: "Your word is my foot lamp" (Ps. 118: 105). And if we do not immerse your consciousness into the word of God, then we go to darkness.
Turning to the instruction to the young bishop Timothy, the Apostle Paul wrote: "No one disseminately neglect your youth; But be a model for faithful in the Word, in Life, in love, in the spirit, in faith, clean. The docome will not come, take reading, instruction and teaching "(1 Tim. 4: 12-13). And the Moses of Moses, delivering Joshua, told him: "Yes, the book of the law from the mouth of yours does not leave; But going to her day and night, in order to fulfill everything that it is written in it: then you will be successful in your ways and you will do prudently "(ing. 1: 8).
How to deal with the study of the Holy Scriptures? I think that you have to start with the evangelical and apostolic readings of the day, the instructions for which there are in every church calendar - and today there are all such calendars. In the old days it was accepted: after the morning rule, the person opened the calendar, watched what the gospel reading, what an apostolic reading, and read these texts - they were a kind of edification on this day. And for a more intensive study of the Holy Scriptures, a very good post time.
Be sure to have at home to have a Bible, pick up such an instance that will be comfortable for your eyes, which in the hands is nice to keep. And to be sure to be a bookmark. And under the bookmark it is necessary to read the fragment of the Holy Scripture from the beginning to the end.
Of course, it is recommended to start with the New Testament. And if the person is already incerever, he needs to at least once to read the entire Bible entirely. And when a person will be the time of fasting to use for an intensive study of the Holy Scriptures, it will bring him God's blessing.
It has long been noticed that, no matter how many times the one and the same biblical text, in different periods of life, it opens with new faces. Exactly so a gem when turning it, shines that blue, then turquoise, then amber. The Word of God, no matter how many times we appeal to it, will open us all new and new horizons of the science knowledge.
Rev. Amvrosy Optina recommended the newly acquainted with the new covenant on the interpretation of the blissful Feofilakt. These interpretations, though brief, but transmit the very essence of the text. And in their comments, the blissful feofilak does not leave the topic. As you know, he took the creation of St. John Zlatoust's creation, but he allocated only what applies directly to the text that commented.
Reading the biblical text itself, it is always necessary to have or an intelligent Orthodox Bible, or the same comment of the Blessed Feofilakta, and when something is incomprehensible, contact them. Committee itself, without biblical text, it is quite difficult to read, because it is still background references; We must contact him when you come across an incomprehensible or complex fragment of the Bible.
Parents should study Holy Scripture with their children
How to teach children to read the Holy Scriptures? It seems, parents must study the Holy Scriptures with their children. The Bible repeatedly states that it is his father who must teach the law of God's children. And, by the way, never says that children should learn. This means that they want or do not want, they still need to engage in God's law and read the Bible.
