Biblical Understanding based on the Record of Scripture
Why think like a Hebrew? Primarily because the scriptures were written by (ancient) Hebrews. Even the New Testament which came to us in the Greek language was, with the exception of Luke, written by Hebrews. The initial strategy in taking the good news to all nations centered on Israel. Obey YHVH, receive His blessing and neighboring nations would take note and inquire of Israel's God.
In the New Testament era the influence of Greek thinking and philosophy essentially replaced the foundational thinking behind the law, the prophets, and the writings. Knowing the difference is important.
