Often times in today’s society‚ a verse or passage from the bible can be taken out of context and misconstrued into something else. When analyzing and interpreting biblical passages‚ it is incredibly important to understand how the location‚ structure‚ and content of a passage work together to form meaning. For example‚ one may pull a single verse from a miracle in Matthew and only see one potential interpretation. However‚ when analyzing a passage like Matthew 8:27 through 9:8‚ which features three
