| |
| > #### *The Consistency of Symbolic Meaning in Sensus Plenior Hermeneutics*
| |
|
| |
| This course examines the structural and symbolic unity of the biblical text, where every symbol, word, and literary pattern contributes to a cohesive theological whole. Through the lens of sensus plenior, we will explore how Scriptureβauthored by the Spiritβdisplays unchanging meanings across time, genre, and covenant.

| ## π§Ύ Introduction (for textbook or lecture notes):
| |
|
| |
| > **Introduction:**
| |
| >
| |
| > The Scriptures are not merely a historical recordβthey are a divine tapestry. From Genesis to Revelation, a **literary web** has been woven by the Spirit, where symbols are not ad hoc or subjective but eternally **aligned** by the Author Himself: **Yahweh**.
| |
| >
| |
| > In this course, we explore how these **symbols function across Scripture with consistency and purpose**, anchored in Christ. We will analyze:
| |
| > - Symbol constancy (e.g., water always represents the Word)
| |
| > - Letter formations and Hebrew gate structures
| |
| > - Reversal pairs and mirrored meanings
| |
| > - Literary structures (chiasms, parallelism, inclusio)
| |
| >
| |
| > The thesis of this approach is simple but profound:
| |
| > > **A Literary Web Aligns Yahwehβs Symbols.**
| |
| > > Meaning is not invented; it is discovered.

| |
|
| |
| ### 1. **Symbol Web Graphic**
| |
| **Title:** *The Literary Web of Consistent Symbols*
| |
|
| |
| A network-style diagram showing recurring biblical symbols and their aligned meanings across Scripture:
| |
|
| |
| ```
| |
| [Tree] β always β [Man]
| |
| [Water] β always β [Word]
| |
| [Mountain] β always β [Kingdom]
| |
| [Left] β always β [Flesh]
| |
| [Right] β always β [Spirit]
| |
| [Bride] β always β [Godβs People]
| |
| [Darkness] β always β [Love]
| |
| [Light] β always β [Holiness]
| |
| ```
| |
|
| |
| Lines connect verses from Torah, Prophets, Gospels, and Revelation to show their symbolic continuity.
| |

| |
|
| |
| ### 2. **Hebrew Gate Structure Chart**
| |
| **Title:** *Yahwehβs Authored Language: Symbolic Gates*
| |
|
| |
| A table showing common two-letter Hebrew gates and how they symbolize fixed relationships:
| |
|
| |
| | Gate | Meaning | Reverse | Reverse Meaning |
| |
| |------|---------|---------|------------------|
| |
| | ΧΧ (av) | Father (Initiator) | ΧΧ (bo) | Come (Invitation) |
| |
| | ΧΧ (yad) | Hand (Work) | ΧΧ (day) | Enough (Limit of Work) |
| |
| | ΧΧΧ (mayim) | Water/Word | β | β |
| |
| | Χ¨Χ (ram) | Exalted | ΧΧ¨ (mar) | Bitter |
| |
|
| |
| *Arrows and annotations highlight how symbols operate in structured pairs.*
| |

| |
|
| |
| ### 3. **Chiasm Overlay Example**
| |
| **Title:** *Aligned Symbols in Literary Structures*
| |
|
| |
| Overlay of a chiastic passage (e.g., Genesis 22 or Mark 14) with consistent symbol meanings across mirrored layers.
| |
|
| |
| ```
| |
| A. The Father calls the son
| |
| B. They go to the place of sacrifice
| |
| C. The wood is laid on the son
| |
| D. God provides the lamb
| |
| C'. The son submits
| |
| B'. They descend together
| |
| A'. The Father receives him back
| |
| ```
| |
|
| |
| Each layer interprets symbolically:
| |
| - **Father = God**
| |
| - **Son = Christ**
| |
| - **Wood = Cross**
| |
| - **Lamb = Substitution**
| |
|
| |
| Shows how literary structure reinforces symbolic unity.
