References and Sources
All Scripture references are to the Revised Standard Version (RSV) unless otherwise stated.
Please note that ‘Church’ refers to the Universal Church scattered throughout the world (and in Heaven, too, if this is implied) whereas ‘church’ refers to the local church, an individual fellowship of believers.
I’ve also chosen to label a resident of the southern kingdom of Judah as a ‘Judahite’ and a resident of first century Judea as a ‘Judean’.
