Genesis 9 – Patience in the Flood
The world was then a huge earth-sized mess of war, bloodshed and violence. Humanity had entirely bailed on its responsibilities given in Eden to serve and preserve life on the earth. God didn’t make the mess, but he was going to clean it up, and provide the way forward.
Leviticus 13 – An Offense Uncovered
This passage is a study-within-a-study: a disorder, a pronouncement of “unclean”, a life lived in exile. As an object of meditation, we’ll let our attention be drawn to our Exemplar’s uncovered head and his own self-pronouncement. Then we’ll listen to a poet’s own meditations on this passage and continue the journey ever inward, toward wisdom and insight, and ultimately, toward God.
