Structural Analysis Of Bible Passage

Question: What is Structural Analysis of Bible Passage? Answer: Analysis of Bible Section: II.1 Act 20: 11: (refer to the appendix 1) The passage that has been selected for analysis of the sentence structure is Act 20:11. The particular sentences used in the passage concern with Pauls actions. Here he refers to Paul. In the previous phrase, it has been demonstrated that Paul went down from the upper room and prayed over him and assured his friend that the soul has returned or would return to the body. The phrase that is discussed here immediately follows this event. In this phrase (Act 20: 11) it has been presented that Paul went back to the upper room where the disciples were gathered and ate for the bodily refreshment. After that, he spoke of the doctrine and ordinance of the gospel and other spiritual and divine experiences without the conception of when to leave. Then he left without taking any rest. The analysis of the passage has been given in accordance with the following categories: Word order: The word order that has been followed in this particular passage is that of the simple sentence structure of the English sentence, which is subject verb object.
