We’re done. I promise. Really. I just wanted to do two things: First, offer this directory, or “Table of Contents” to the Beauty Series for a clear organization of the parts so people can navigate it more easily. Secondly, below you’ll find not only the full audio and complete manuscript based off this series, but, for the first time, you’ll see a special appendix I put together. It’s a complete breakdown of every word in both Greek and Hebrew that the English Standard Version of the Bible translates as either “beauty” or “beautiful”, broken down by frequency. Along with those words (and all their forms), I’ve offered the most literal definition of each of those words so you can easily see the huge range of meanings that the Biblical words for “beauty” carry. It took a while to put together so I hope it’s helpful. You don’t need any knowledge of Greek or Hebrew to understand it or get something from it. Enjoy. And this is it for the series now. I promise.
The Outline for the Entire Series:
- Why do we long for Beauty?
- What is Beauty?
- What Things are Beautiful, and why are they Beautiful?
- How do we respond to this Beauty?
- Conclusion
