DBRP_Oct20_2014 Eze17 Is2 Mat28


Yesterday’s chapter graphically portrayed how God considers idolatry like the adultery of a faithless wife. Jerusalem (as Judah’s capital) was compared to her two sisters, Samaria and Sodom.

 

In the first chapter of Isaiah, we heard the Lord compare Israel to Sodom and Gomorrah. And we heard how the Lord hates false religious rituals, including the sacrifices that were specified in the Law. If these are done without a corresponding attempt to live in God’s will, they are a stench to Him.

 

Yesterday’s reading ended with Jesus wrapped in Joseph of Arimethea’s shoud in a tomb, with Roman soldiers standing guard.
