Today we hear the conclusion of the story of Gideon. It is a pity that Gideon was so successful, but that a half-son and unfaithful people ruined his legacy. This is a story that supports the verse which says, “Whatever you sow, that is also what you will reap.”
Psalm 82 is for anyone upset about injustice on earth. The difficult verse 6 can be interpreted in numerous ways.
Paul continues to use Old Testament pictures to show the spiritual truth that is central to this book. Gentiles do not need to be circumcised because we have been freed from the Law of Moses. We do not need to earn favor with God. We have already been adopted as sons and are considered heirs of God's promises. Proof of this is that the Spirit of Jesus is in our hearts.
