GENESIS 42-43:
Yesterday in chapter 41, we heard of Pharaoh's dream, and what
happened to Joseph as a result of his correctly telling the
interpretation. Note also that Joseph was careful to give the glory
to God for that interpretation.
JOB 26:
Yesterday in chapter 25, Bildad only had a six verse response,
because Job interrupted him with the speech we will read today.
Bildad implied Job’s guilt in more than one way, including this
most obvious rhetorical question:
4 Can anyone be righteous or pure in God's sight?
MARK 16:
Yesterday we heard of the death and burial of Jesus. That chapter
was full of fulfilled prophecies.
GNT Translation notes:
Mrk. 16:1 After the Sabbath was over, Mary [— the one from the
village of Magdalene//Magdalene], Mary the mother of James, and
Salome bought spices to go and anoint the body of Jesus.
17 Believers will be given the power to perform miracles: they will
drive out demons in my name; they will speak in [unlearned
languages//strange tongues];
NLT Translation notes:
Gen. 42:5 So Jacob’s a sons arrived in Egypt along with others to
buy food, for the famine [extended to//was in] the
land of Canaan as well.
43:9 I personally guarantee his safety. You [can//may] hold me
responsible if I don’t bring him back to you. Then let me bear the
blame forever.
22 We also have additional money to buy more food. We have no idea
who put our money [back/0] in our sacks.”
