Clash of cultures

As we can see in the previous section, the Jewish culture in Israel had no less diversity than we do today.[1] Various cultural groups within Israel had their diversity of viewpoints, but as is common today, there were many people who likely could identify with more than one group. In this next section we will look at some of the cultural issues that were present then and are still present today and we will pursue some of these ideas in later chapters.

I have been teaching the Bible to children and adults for over twenty years. I have also been involved in various church leadership roles for many of those years. I've written an anthology of my first 40 years of writing poetry in my book, Growing.
