NUMBERS 21:
Yesterday we heard about the water of
purification, which involved the burnt offering of a red heifer and
following very exacting requirements. Then we heard the story of
Moses and Aaron's failure to display God's holiness in the issue of
speaking to— rather than striking the rock. It is no wonder Moses
was exasperated by the people. And following that incident, not
being able to pass through the land of Edom, they turned back to
Mount Hor, where Aaron died.
PSALM 38:
This
is a beautiful song of repentance and a cry for deliverance from
enemies.
LUKE 24b:
Yesterday we heard the story of the women not
finding Jesus in the tomb, and the story of the two men meeting the
risen Jesus on the road to Emmaus.
NLT Translation
notes:
Luk.
24:6 He isn’t here! He is risen from the dead! Remember what he
told you back in Galilee, 7 that [He,/0]
the Son of
Man[,/0] must be betrayed into the hands of sinful men
and be crucified, and that he would rise again on the third
day.”
25 Then Jesus said to them, “You
foolish [men/people]! You find it so hard to believe all that the
prophets wrote in the Scriptures.
