Things of the Bible


Nebuchadnezzar’s Dream



Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, is a prominent character in the book of Daniel. The mighty king, who conquered Jerusalem and carried off most of its citizens to exile in Babylon, had a strange dream that none of his court magicians could interpret.

The young Jewish man Daniel, who was serving as a court official, learned from God the meaning of the dream and reported it to the king.

Nebuchadnezzar dreamed of a huge statue of himself, with a head of gold, chest and arms of silver, belly of bronze, legs of iron, and feet of iron mingled with clay. Daniel explained that the gold represented Nebuchadnezzar himself and the kingdom of Babylon.

The silver part represented a later, and inferior kingdom, the bronze another, and so on. The “feet of clay” represented a kingdom that would not stay united.

Historians and Bible readers have had a field day trying to connect the dream with world empires.

Some say the iron legs represent the Roman Empire, but hundreds of other possibilities (none of which can be proved) have been put forward.



The place where god puts you will not be perfect—even eden was exposed to the possibility of evil. But there is no better place to be than where god has set you down.

A Place Called Home

Colin S. Smith and Tim Augustyn
The book of genesis is part of the revelation god gave to moses at mount Sinai, so when it says eden was “in the east,” we are talking about a location somewhere east of Sinai.
We were created to come close to a Father who has made himself vulnerable to the longings of his people and to absorb his desires as he cares for and works through ours.

God’s Heart and Ours

Chris Tiegreen
One of the primary ways God accomplishes his purposes on earth is through the prayers of his people. And one of our primary motivations for prayer is the desires in our hearts.
God’s Word gives us the resilience of a tree with a source of living water that will never dry up.

The Secret of Strength and Happiness

Timothy Keller
Psalm 1 is the gateway to the rest of the psalms. The “law” is all Scripture, to “meditate” is to think out its implications for all life, and to “delight” in it means not merely to comply but to love what God commands.
The new heavens and new earth are perfect because everyone and everything is glorifying God fully and therefore enjoying him forever.

A Glimpse into the Future of Eternal Praise

Timothy Keller
Every possible experience, if prayed to the God who is really there, is destined to end in praise. Confession leads to the joy of forgiveness. Laments lead to a deeper resting in him for our happiness. If we could praise God perfectly, we would love him completely and then our joy would be full.
Gospel joy, knowing how honored and loved we are in Christ (verse 5), makes us ready for this mission.

Poetry of Praise and Redemptive Mission

Timothy Keller
The praise of the redeemed. His people praise him because he has made them his people and because he honors and delights in them —though they don’t deserve it. Gospel joy, knowing how honored and loved we are in Christ, makes us ready for this mission.
