Exegetical Meditations (22)

Familiarity with Scripture is a great thing.

It’s wonderful to be reading one of the gospels or Paul’s letters and to feel as though it’s a road you’ve driven many times before. You know the speed limit without checking, you know the stop signs before you see them, and you know where your turn is without looking for a road sign. Your familiarity helps you enjoy the ride without being preoccupied with navigating.
