Created page with "==Rule - Rigorous== Since every word concerning life and death must be established by two or three witnesses <ref>De 17:6 At the mouth of two witnesses, or three witn..."

New page

==[[Rule - Rigorous]]==

Since every word concerning life and death must be established by two or three witnesses <ref>[[De 17:6]] At the mouth of two witnesses, or three witnesses, shall he that is worthy of death be put to death; [but] at the mouth of one witness he shall not be put to death.</ref>, every shadow must have at least two supporting scripture witnesses. This means we cannot define a shadow with a single verse. The shadows speak of Christ and the cross. There is no other topic which addresses life and death for all men. (This keeps us rigorous in methodology)

A shadow is a hidden meaning which is not contained in the literal meaning <ref>[[Heb 10:1]] ¶ For the law having a shadow of good things to come, [and] not the very image of the things, can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually make the comers thereunto perfect.</ref>. Shadows are not the product of a wild imagination and are therefore verifiable by the scriptures. When a shadow has two or three witnesses, it should be regarded as a tentative meaning. This rule specifically forbids a single verse from becoming definitive.

'''Consequence of lack of rigor:''' Conclusions may be premature and/or wrong.

If one skims through the rules without comprehending them, or like Naaman hears the instruction but is insulted at their apparent simplicity <ref>[[2Ki 5:11]] But Naaman was wroth, and went away, and said, Behold, I thought, He will surely come out to me, and stand, and call on the name of the LORD his God, and strike his hand over the place, and recover the leper.</ref>, the results of exegesis will look like nothing but the free-for-all allegory of others. It should not be expected that using the 'Syrian waters' of free-for-all allegory should produce a result any different than before; free-for-all allegory with none of the verifiability of the Hebrew hermeneutic.
