While the word itself may not always appear explicitly in every translation, the concept of choosing between two paths, actions, or outcomes is a recurring theme throughout Scripture. This entry explores the biblical usage and theological implications of "either" as it relates to decision-making, moral choices, and divine guidance. Old Testament Context In the Old Testament, the concept of choice is frequently presented to the people of Israel. One of the most notable instances is found in the book of Deuteronomy, where Moses sets before the Israelites the choice between life and death, blessing and curse. <a href="/deuteronomy/30-19.htm">Deuteronomy 30:19</a> states, "I call heaven and earth as witnesses against you today that I have set before you life and death, blessing and curse. So choose life, so that you and your descendants may live." Here, the choice is clear, and the consequences of either option are laid out, emphasizing the importance of obedience to God's commandments. The narrative of Elijah on Mount Carmel also presents a stark choice. In <a href="/1_kings/18-21.htm">1 Kings 18:21</a> , Elijah challenges the people, saying, "How long will you waver between two opinions? If the LORD is God, follow Him; but if Baal is God, follow him." This moment underscores the necessity of choosing whom to serve, highlighting the exclusivity of devotion required by the God of Israel. New Testament Context In the New Testament, the theme of choice continues, often with eternal implications. Jesus frequently presents choices to His listeners, urging them to follow Him and embrace the Kingdom of God. In <a href="/matthew/7-13.htm">Matthew 7:13-14</a> , Jesus speaks of two gates: "Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the way that leads to life, and only a few find it." Here, the choice is between the broad path of destruction and the narrow path of life, illustrating the cost and commitment of discipleship. The Apostle Paul also addresses the concept of choice in his epistles. In <a href="/romans/6-16.htm">Romans 6:16</a> , he writes, "Do you not know that when you offer yourselves as obedient slaves, you are slaves to the one you obey, whether you are slaves to sin leading to death, or to obedience leading to righteousness?" Paul presents a dichotomy between serving sin and serving righteousness, emphasizing the transformative power of choosing to live under God's grace. Theological Implications The biblical presentation of "either" choices often carries significant theological weight. These choices are not merely about personal preference but are deeply connected to one's relationship with God and the moral and spiritual direction of one's life. The Bible consistently calls individuals to make decisions that align with God's will, reflecting His holiness and righteousness. The concept of choice also underscores human responsibility and the freedom given by God to choose. While God's sovereignty is a central theme in Scripture, human agency is also affirmed, as individuals are called to respond to God's initiatives with faith and obedience. In summary, the biblical use of "either" highlights the importance of decision-making in the life of faith. Whether in the context of covenantal faithfulness, moral integrity, or spiritual allegiance, the choices presented in Scripture call believers to a life of commitment and devotion to God.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.
