| January 15, 2017 Thanks!
Thank you to the LORD for keeping us safe through the snow/ice storm last week.
Bible Reading
Feel free to use this chart to help you read through the New Testament. It's only 1 chapter a day for 5 days a week. | Day | Reading | | Monday | Mark 11 | | Tuesday | Mark 12 | | Wednesday | Mark 13 | | Thursday | Mark 14 | | Friday | Mark 15 | - Mark 11:15 marks the 2nd time Jesus clears the temple. The people should have learned the lesson the 1st time (recorded in John 2).
- Mark 12:13 is interesting. They asked Jesus if they should pay taxes or not? The Herodians were for Rome and paying taxes. The Pharises were anti-Rom and didn't want to pay taxes.
- Mark 12:28 – Essentially the questions was: Of the 248 precepts and 365 laws, which 1 is the greatest?
- Mark 14:26 – The hymn that they sang after the Last Supper was probably Psalms 115-118, which were sung after the Passover Meal.
- Mark 10:19 – "Do not defraud" is not in the 10 commandments, but it's a corollary to not stealing and not lying.
