This is the inaugural AUGMENT post designed to provide an additional tool for expanding on the lesson details, tools and other material to support the men’s group bible study efforts. This specifically applies to the 2024/2025 study of 1 Corinthians.
On occasion, group leaders may have additional material to cover or recommended readings against a particular passage discussed that week. Additionally, the MOB has a lesson summary provided by brother Lowell that reflects key elements of the lesson.
For example, on the resource page (and the link below), we provide a Microsoft excel file that captures the use of Old Testament references in the book of 1 Corinthians. This information draws from the Logos Bible Software New Testament Use of the Old Testament. It captures the relationship between a 1 Corinthians verse and the OT source reference. There are four relationships that are used: Citation, Quotation, Allusion, and Echo. These terms are understood as:

- Citation: An explicit reference to scripture with a citation formula (e.g. “It is written,” or “the Lord says,” or “the prophet says”).
- Quotation: A direct reference to scripture, largely matching the verbatim wording of the source but without a quotation formula
- Allusion: An indirect but intentional reference to scripture, likely intended to invoke memory of the scripture.
- Echo: A verbal parallel evokes or recalls a scripture (or series of scriptures) to the reader, but likely without authorial intention to reproduce exact words.
