Easter 7 - Thursday

Psalm 113 - Who is like the Lord our God? Nobody! Sometimes we need this reminder.

Numbers 16:41-17:13 - Notice how Moses and Aaron act as intercessors between God and the people. Christ is of course THE intercessor for us as sinners. It reminds me of Luther's discussion of the hidden verses the revealed God. If you're curious about this I can introduce you to the idea.

Luke 20:1-18 - I never realized that Jesus' challenge to them illustrates that they speak from logic and reason but not from knowledge of the truth. Jesus speaks as one who has authority because he does have authority and doesn't have to extrapolate to get close to the truth.
