Part of careful study is more than trying to interpret the words. We have much to learn from the action that the characters in the Bible do and the results of their action. Our Creator tells Adam not to eat from a certain tree and when he did eat it brought death into the world. David knew the command not to murder and when he had Uriah killed it would cause the death of the first born between David and Bathsheba. Abraham knew to be faithful and as a result of HIs faithfulness all people are blessed through his family.
