Right to Left: The Pattern of Grace
Hebrew is read from right to left, contrary to most of our writings (okay yes even Chinese, Japanese and Arab have right to left writing :P). Still I think it says something about the contrast of the things of God against the things of this world.
God's grace vs. worldliness. God's wisdom vs. man's wisdom.
The world thinks contrary to God how God thinks. The world is into works (earn and deserve, do good get good) when God gives us freely and undeserved. The world(law-minded) is contrary to God (Grace).
rom12:2 Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is--his good, pleasing and perfect will.
1 cor 3:18 Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise. 19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness.
2 cor 11:3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.
isa55:9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
1 cor 1:25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
1 cor 2:14 NIV The man without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned.
