Psalm 86:8-10
So here’s a nagging question that I have had: Why is there not a label for a Ground-Inference-Ground arc? I might call it an Inverse Bilateral.
Psalm 86:8-10 seems like a perfect candidate. Because verse 10 is a restatement of verse 8, it does not seem accurate to arc 8-9 together, grounded by 10. Nor 9-10 together as an inference from 8.
@Michael-Lane said in Psalm 86:8-10:
Because verse 10 is a restatement of verse 8, it does not seem accurate to arc 8-9 together, grounded by 10. Nor 9-10 together as an inference from 8.
You make a good point, Mike. Either of the two options you mentioned would work except for the fact that verse 8 restates verse 10—there’s an envelope structure here.
Perhaps this doesn’t appear often enough to justify a specific relationship pre-loaded into Biblearc. I’ll keep my eyes open for these to see if there are many more!
I think we could see another possible example in Matthew 28:18-20. Jesus’s declaration in v.18 and his promise in v.20 seem to provide the ground for the inference in v.19.
