It is used to describe physical locations, moments in time, or specific purposes and intentions. The Berean Standard Bible provides several instances where the term is used, each offering insight into its biblical significance.<br><br>1. <b>Physical Locations and Directions</b>: The term "point" is often used to describe a specific location or direction. In the Old Testament, the Israelites were frequently given precise instructions regarding their journey and the land they were to inhabit. For example, in the context of the tabernacle and temple, specific points were designated for various rituals and offerings, emphasizing the importance of order and divine instruction.<br><br>2. <b>Moments in Time</b>: The Bible frequently uses "point" to denote a specific moment or period. <a href="/ecclesiastes/3.htm">Ecclesiastes 3:1</a> states, "To everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven." This verse underscores the idea that God has appointed specific times for every event in life, highlighting His sovereignty and the importance of recognizing divine timing.<br><br>3. <b>Purpose and Intention</b>: The concept of a "point" can also refer to purpose or intention. In <a href="/philippians/3-13.htm">Philippians 3:13-14</a>, the Apostle Paul writes, "Brothers, I do not consider myself to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize of God’s heavenly calling in Christ Jesus." Here, Paul speaks of a focused intention, a singular point of purpose in his spiritual journey, which is to pursue the calling of Christ.<br><br>4. <b>Moral and Ethical Decisions</b>: The Bible often presents moments of decision as points of moral and ethical significance. In the account of Esther, for instance, Esther reaches a critical point where she must decide whether to risk her life to save her people. <a href="/esther/4-14.htm">Esther 4:14</a> captures this moment: "For if you remain silent at this time, relief and deliverance for the Jews will arise from another place, but you and your father’s family will perish. And who knows but that you have come to your royal position for such a time as this?" This highlights the importance of recognizing and acting upon pivotal moments in accordance with God's will.<br><br>5. <b>Spiritual Insight and Revelation</b>: Points of revelation are significant in the biblical narrative. In the New Testament, Jesus often brings His disciples to a point of deeper understanding through parables and teachings. In <a href="/matthew/16-15.htm">Matthew 16:15-17</a>, Jesus asks His disciples, "But what about you?" He asked. "Who do you say I am?" Simon Peter answered, "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God." Jesus replied, "Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, for this was not revealed to you by flesh and blood, but by my Father in heaven." This moment marks a point of spiritual insight and revelation for Peter.<br><br>In summary, the concept of "point" in the Bible encompasses physical locations, moments in time, purposes, moral decisions, and spiritual insights. Each usage underscores the importance of recognizing and responding to God's direction and timing in the life of believers.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.
