Approach to writing
Two characteristics
1) I seek different “takes” on an idea. Different insights, different angles that point to a certain direction. I do not offer a complete system. It would just fall apart. We cannot see the whole. It remains a mystery. But we can shoot arrows into the void and strike various
truths.
2) The Hebrews approach their writings with such a system. They would have their basic writings and through the years they would offer commentary. Various rabbis would add their interpretations or elaborate on what was written. The original writing was a springboard, not a cage. This is in contrast to a theological system that attempts to be all conclusive and airtight.
