The Bible uses lots of patterns. God shows us He had a plan for mankind before He created the Earth. He tells us to follow the patterns set out by faithful brethren.

Today's episode looks at how to study in a way that you can find those patterns. Then it shows how to use the pattern for yourself or for others you may be trying to teach.

When you study your Bible you will sometimes come across a verse that is hard to understand on its own. The phrasing may be different from what you are used to. The verse may be talking about things normal for ancient times or first century time, but not at all normal for modern times. The words may just be weird! Good thing God prepared His word to be timeless! In today's episode Angela looks at several contexts that some have described as "being hard to understand what is meant". she walks through exploring the context to see how God fills in the blanks that may seem to be in one verse. Learn how to use the context to explain hard to understand verses or concepts. God is the best author and His own best commentator. Trust the context He has provided.

Join Angela as she walks through how to see and note different layers in one context. This allows you to build layers into your own Bible study each time you come to the same context. Angela looks at where Peter validates that there are some things in scripture that are hard to understand. That means you are not alone AND God understands that you may find it difficult sometime. Isn't that amazing?! Study talks about how to use scripture writing to help you better comprehend what you are reading. Bible marking is explained as a way to help you retain what you have learned so when you come back to a scripture you start with a foundation of what you've already learned before. 2 Peter 3:11-18 Ephesians 1:15-2:10 Mentioned in this episode: S3 Ep 302 Study Like the Bereans S3 Ep 303 Study with Scripture Writing Learn about Scripture Writing How to Study the Bible with a Bible Marking System Send questions and comments to The Diligent Woman here Helpful tools for Bible Study: Wide Margin Bible Ultra-Fine Tip Pens  Fineliner Markers Highlighters Paper Journals If you enjoyed this episode, please leave a review on your favorite podcast app. Comment with your thoughts and questions to join the conversation.

Take a #DiligentMinute to consider...   In Psalm 102:18 a promise is made to the afflicted that the message in the Psalm "will be written for the generation to come, that a people yet to be created may praise the Lord." God was thinking of you, as part of the "generation to come" back then. In John 17:20-21 we can read where Jesus prayed for you too.  He knew you, and other believers like you, were coming. He knew you needed God's word to find unity. How precious a gift that Jesus would think of you enough to pray for you while He prayed for the disciples right in front of Him.  Live today like you are something worth mentioning by Jesus Our Lord. Put away your doubts, and trust in His love and care for you. Enjoy!
