2015DBRP_293 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.

Translation notes:

1 Early  on Sunday morning, as the new day was dawning, Mary [from the village of] Magdalene and the other Mary went out to visit the tomb.

15So the guards accepted the bribe and said what they were told to say. Their story spread widely among the Jews, and they still tell [that story//it] today.
