Reflections

Love means many things today. But the Bible is crystal clear about this powerful concept. Greek, the international language of Jesus’ day and the language in which the New Testament was written, had four distinct words for love, each with its own shade of meaning:-

1. Eros denoted the relationship between male and female, especially to lovers, including physical desire, craving, and longing. That word for love is not used in the New Testament.

2. Stergos described affection and was applied especially to the mutual love between family members. It is not used in the New Testament either.

The ancient Israelites took sin far more seriously than we do. The regular burnt-offering sacrifices (Lev. 1:3-5). They offered required the sacrifice of both finances and time, as well as the ability to slit an animal’s throat.
 
The required sacrifice for the burnt offering was a bull, which was to be among the best of the herd. Even those who could not afford bulls had to make sacrifices in line with their means (1:10, 14, 5:7-8).
