Discussion Questions:
Old Testament

1. Samson killed himself, together with a lot of Philistines. Should we construe this story to mean that Suicide is sometimes justified?

New Testament

1. What is the significance of the phrase, “And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us?” John 1:14 (RSV).
2. Why did Nicodemus come to see Jesus at night? Are we ever guilty of behaving the same way for the same reasons?
