At first we are not asking <span class="quote">&#8220;<span class="quote">What does it mean to me?</span>&#8221;</span> but 
<span class="quote">&#8220;<span class="quote">What did it mean to the original readers?</span>&#8221;</span>; later we can ask, 
<span class="quote">&#8220;<span class="quote">What does it mean to me?</span>&#8221;</span>.  We have to take into account the 
historical and cultural background of the author and the recipients.</p><div class="section" title="Example 3A"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a name="h2-rules-hcontest-ex3a"></a>Example 3A</h3></div></div></div><p>  <span class="quote">&#8220;<span class="quote">3 days &amp; 3 nights</span>&#8221;</span> (Mt.12:40) have led some to come up 
with a "Wednesday crucifixion theory," esp. the cult of Armstrongism.  How 
could Jesus die on Friday afternoon and rise Sunday morning yet "be raised 
on the third day" (Mt.16:21)? Exact meanings of "three" or "days" won't help 
explain the apparent contradiction.</p><p>We need an historical tidbit: Jews counted any part of a day as a full day, 
as we would count buckets of water (if there were six and one-half buckets 
of water, we would say there were 7 buckets of water even if one was only 
partly full).  So to the Jewish mind, any part of a day counted as a full 
day, and days started at 6 p.m. and ended at 6 p.m.  Friday from 3 p.m. to 6 
p.m. = day 1.  Friday 6 p.m. to Saturday 6 p.m. = day 2.  Saturday 6 p.m. to 
Sunday 5 or so a.m. = day 3.  Interpreting within the cultural context keeps 
us out of trouble.</p></div><div class="section" title="Voorbeeld 3B"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a name="h2-rules-hcontest-ex3b"></a>Voorbeeld 3B</h3></div></div></div><p>Gen.15:7-21.  The historical context is that cutting animals in two and then 
walking between the pieces was the normal way of entering a contract in 
Abraham's day.  Both parties walked between, taking the pledge that 
dismemberment would happen to them if they didn't live up to their part of 
the contract.  But in this case only God goes thru, making it a unilateral 
covenant.</p></div></div><div class="navfooter"><hr><table width="100%" summary="Navigation footer"><tr><td width="40%" align="left"><a accesskey="p" href="h2-rules-context.html">Terug</a></td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="u" href="h2-rules.html">Omhoog</a></td><td width="40%" align="right"><a accesskey="n" href="h2-rules-normal.html">Volgende</a></td></tr><tr><td width="40%" align="left" valign="top">Regel 2 - Interpreteer binnen the bijbelse context�</td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="h" href="index.html">Begin</a></td><td width="40%" align="right" valign="top">�Regel 4 - Interpreteer volgens het normale gebruik van woorden in de taal</td></tr></table></div></body></html>
