The Third Day Radio Show for 01-09-2010-Synopsis #5: “The Language of Metaphor-Part 1” with Sue Patterson and Randy Maugans
“A wise man will hear, and will increase learning; and a man of understanding
shall attain unto wise counsels: To understand a proverb, and the interpretation; the words of the wise, and their dark sayings.” – Proverbs 1:5-6
The metaphors found in scripture are a bridge between time and spirit. There is a consistent body of images and identifications in the prophetic writings…and once we learn the “language” the dark understandings, hidden by the Creator, come to life.
This show reviews the fundamentals of the prophetic view brought out in early Third Day studies, and begins breaking out the rules for applying identifications found in the prophetic writings. Key concepts for the student of prophecy.
“In trying to understand a thing we are trying to find a metaphor for that thing . . . Understanding a thing is to arrive at a metaphor for a thing by substituting something more familiar to us. And the feeling of familiarity is the feeling of understanding . . . Understanding a thing is arriving at a familiarizing metaphor for it . . .”-Julian Jaynes, “The Origin of Consciousness and the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind”
