Think like a Hebrew

Jewish God. Jewish Scripture. Jewish values. Jewish Messiah. Greek thought?

I recently found a really cool datafile on the net, describing the difference between Greek/Western/linear thought and Hebrew/Eastern/circular thought. It categorizes it neatly, and gives an excellent summary for different areas such as Life, God, Truth, and subs of each. Of the many things I have learned in my studies over the past eleven years, the importance of approaching God and scripture from a Hebrew mindset has been the most pivotal. I highly recommend the datafile that I linked to above.

The rest of the website has some good material as well, but there are also many areas in which I disagree with them. Their stated purpose is admirable, but their delivery tends to be a bit too strong for my taste.

And while I'm on the subject of the importance of a Hebraic world"faithview", I would like to recommend some excellent reading on the matter via my college professors (linked below)...
