As we make this journey together, we want to equip you with the tools for a lifetime of biblical study. Interpretation Stops are opportunities for you to learn how to understand various features you will encounter in the Bible. As with any set of tools, it takes practice to get better at them. But as your skills with these tools grow, you will find your study of the Bible growing more and more fruitful. The following two Interpretation Stops will provide you with helpful insights during your reading of Genesis. If you have read these Interpretation Stops in another Bible Journey course, feel free to skip them.
