Lesson 1.5 | Iron of Culture Living for God Where Culture Is Influenced In ancient times, the control of iron technology represented power and influence. The Philistines, with their mastery of iron, initially held an advantage over the Israelites. The lesson explores how, around the time of King David, the Israelites learned to work iron, becoming the dominant culture in the region . It is suggested that David may have learned this technology while living among the Philistines. The lesson draws a parallel between ancient "iron" and the tools and technologies of our modern culture, such as law, education, music, politics, and the internet. These are presented as means by which believers can positively influence the world.
