More quotes by Craig Blomberg
Don't assume a parable narrates something that actually happened. Recognize that apocalyptic is filled with symbols. Expect a lot of metaphors in poetry. Don't treat a proverb as an exception-less absolute.
Craig Blomberg
No one actually lives as if there is no objective truth.
Craig Blomberg
The Bible itself claims that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.
Craig Blomberg
In the New Testament alone there are Gospels, acts, epistles, and an apocalypse. Gospels contain literary forms like miracles, parables, pronouncements, proverbs, farewell discourses, annunciations, and so on. Epistles can be apologetic, commendatory, friendship-oriented, exhortational, diatribes.
