GENESIS 28-29:
After what Jacob did to Esau, with Esau holding a big grudge, it is
time for Jacob to get out of town.
JOB 16:
Eliphaz said that Job was showing no reverence for God, that his
own words condemned him. His rhetorical questions all imply that
Job is being proud and guilty of sin. Eliphaz maintained that no
mortal can be pure.
MARK 10a:
In yesterday's reading Jesus predicted his death, spoke about who
is greatest in God's kingdom, and talked about the seriousness of
sin.
NLT Translation notes:
Gen 29:8 “We can’t water the animals until all the flocks have
arrived,” they replied. “Then [we/the] shepherds
move the stone from the mouth of the well, and we water all the
sheep and goats.”
9 Jacob was still talking with them when Rachel arrived with her
father’s flock, for she was a shepherd[ess].
