Description
Jesus wept. Sarah laughed. Goliath walked, but David ran. The lame beggar leaped. King Nebuchadnezzar fell on his face. The rich man dressed in purple. Jacob put sackcloth on his loins. The Apostle Paul correctly interpreted the body language of the Philippian jailer, cried out with a loud voice, and saved his life. The Holy Bible is filled with body language, visual clues, and informative sounds. Sometimes it is so obvious that we do not pay attention. Sometimes we notice, but do not know exactly how to interpret the signs. "Body Language in the Bible" provides a comprehensive study of nonverbal communication from Genesis to Revelation. The workbook format guides users as they progress through five different elements of nonverbal communication: Posture, Actions, Appearance, Sounds, and Space. The key to reading biblical body language is to realize that every time the Bible describes someone's physical position or appearance there is a specific purpose. If someone sits down, there is a reason. When the nation of Israel cries out, they are expressing an urgent need. People bow low to show submission. Those who are blessed rise up to places of prominence. Learning how to discover and understand nonverbal clues in the Bible will greatly enhance your personal study times. Becoming an engaged observer will increase your ability to teach, share, and discuss God's Word.
