I Like Questions!
As a tour guide, I meet lots of people. My job is to show them a nation and to explain hundreds of things about this nation. In case you hadn't noticed, nations are fairly large as a general rule.
Topics for explanation include geography, people groups, religious interests, political aspirations, geology, theology, eschatology, meteorology, botany and the list goes on and on.
So, let's imagine a tour group that arrives at the border of Israel. Since I guide in English we can specify that they are from an English speaking country. They probably don't speak Hebrew. A few of them may have been in Israel before. None of them know me.
I can make some guesses about their level of understanding based on knowing their nation of origin, their general religious background and their average age. In fact, however, I usually don't know very much about them at all.
That's why I like questions. The minute one of the group asks me a question, I begin to understand the kinds of things they want to know and the level of understanding they have already achieved.
I want to take this opportunity to invite questions. You see the list of topics above. Believe it or not, I can answer any question if I feel like it. You should realize that one of my answers may be, "I don't know." but even so, I can answer.
Let's go!
