"I have also spoken by the prophets, And have multiplied visions; I have given symbols through the witness of the prophets."
Hosea 12:10In dreams and visions, God speaks in parables, and these parables often involve signs, symbols, and numbers which require the help of the Holy Spirit and the Holy Scriptures to be understood. Many have sought to interpret the signs and symbols in dreams through diverse models and frameworks. However, many of these approaches attempt to decode divine messages through the wrong lenses, but Jesus offers us the opportunity to understand the mysteries and unravel the enigmas in our dreams and visions (Matthew 13:10-17).
Dreams are a spiritual language. Just as languages like English have dictionaries that serve as guides for understanding, the Bible is the believer's primary dictionary and ultimate guide for life. Through years of scriptural study and prophetic experience, the author has condensed various biblical truths found in the signs and symbols of Scripture (for the Bible is replete with them) to produce this lexicon. The author also explores the meanings of contemporary signs and symbols not found in Bible times, yet commonly present in people's dreams today.
