- So . . . I'm "feeding myself" in the morning from God's Word and thought I'd post what I'm chewin' on and make my "food" available for others who might want to nibble a bit. Hope it's of some benefit to you . . .
The word of God is living and active . . . (Hebrews 4:12)

Only A Tenant
Reading in Leviticus 25 this morning. Hovering over the instructions concerning the year of jubilee. Every fifty years a year of reset when everyone was to “return to his property” and “return to his clan” (Lev. 25:10-11). For forty-nine years … Continue reading
What the Lord Has Separated Let No One Join Together
Working my way through a catalog of commandments in Leviticus this morning (Lev. 18-20). Most make sense to this 21st century mind, others not so much. But what is clear is that the reason for the LORD laying out all … Continue reading

Because of The Touch

The Great Equalizer
I’m reading again in Leviticus this morning and the math just doesn’t line up. You know, the math that says that if A=B and B=C then A=C. Or, in the case of this morning’s reading in Leviticus 5, if a … Continue reading
Fruitful Praise
A certain word jumped off the page as I was reading this morning. Don’t think I’ve ever noticed it before when reading here. No, didn’t expect to find that word in Leviticus. Not too surprising that I wasn’t expecting it … Continue reading

The Priest
No doubt there is a lot of detail to try and take in and work through when it comes to reading Leviticus. But in these opening chapters the “big picture ideas” are evident simply because of repetition. Yesterday, I noticed … Continue reading
