Every Verse In The New Testament About Technology

Some of you might know that for the last couple of years I have been working on and off on a survey and commentary of the New Testament. Specifically one with regards to the use of technology as mentioned in the scriptures. Recently my new job has allowed me more free time to work on it. I finished the survey part a few months back and have been cleaning up the comments I've made a bit each day since. As of late October, I copied out the final list of scriptures. Which is what you'll find below. 

I plan on doing the whole Bible eventually and at this point have got through Genesis and the first third of Exodus. In the mean time, as I work out formatting issues and cover designs, Here is the list of verses for you to do your own study with. 

Once I have the entire Bible surveyed and commented on, I plan on getting into the nitty gritty of the Greek and Hebrew along with pairing the total list down to verse that don't just speak about technology, but also speak about it's use, or imply it, or use it to imply or teach about other things. There are plenty of verses noted below that merely let the reader know that technology was mentioned in the scriptures. Such as Matthew 9:1-8 where Jesus uses a boat for what boats are used for, travel. But then others where Jesus uses a boat for what boats aren't for. Namely preaching. Such as in Matthew 13:2, where he uses the boat to preach to a crowd where standing on the shore would have impeded his ability to preach. 

It's these golden nuggets that I'm after. And eventually, I've have enough to really make something special. A biblical theology of technology. But until then, you get a big list of bible verses to sift though with your old pal Mikey.
