Exegetical Notes
by Brian Stoffregen at CrossMarks Christian Resources.
 | "I believe that one of the great,
unique features of Christianity is that it is a religion of God coming
down to us, rather than most other religions where we have to raise
ourselves up to a godly plane. Christianity is light shining in the
darkness, which destroys the darkness. It is not the darkness trying to
become light. It is being transformed by God's (de-)lightful presence
among us." |

 | "Both "a
horn of salvation" and "the house of his servant David" are references in
these verses that evoke cultural intextexture. What do they mean? Only people who have
been raised in Jewish culture or have been educated in it as an "other" culture
will know their meanings." |
