EZEKIEL 44-45:
In
the vision of the ideal temple yesterday, we heard of the buildings
of rooms for the priests and offerings, the altar, the glory of God
coming to this temple, and the reason for this vision.
ISAIAH 19:
Yesterday in Isaiah we heard the prophecy about
the defeat of the Ethiopians, and at the end of that message, there
was a note of hope for that nation.
HEBREWS 13:
Yesterday (and even the day before) we returned
to the place of rest which was the theme of chapters 3-4. Did you
notice?! Compare the last verse of chapter 4 with the place where
we ‘have come’ to in 12:22-24.
NLT Translation notes:
Heb.
13:7 Remember your leaders who taught you the word of God. Think of
all the good that has come from their lives, and follow the example
of [the way they lived out their beliefs.//their
faith.]
8
[Christ Jesus/Jesus Christ] is the same yesterday, today, and
forever.
9 So
do not be attracted by strange, new ideas. Your strength comes from
God’s grace, not from rules about food, which don’t help those who
follow them.
[The
correct order is ‘title’ then ‘name’ in English. We always say
words like ‘president’, ‘senator’, and ‘doctor’ before a person’s
name in that role. Greek can do the order either way. This is
important because there are people in the world that think that
‘Christ’ is Jesus’ last name.]
15
Therefore, let us offer through Jesus a continual sacrifice of
praise to God, proclaiming our allegiance to [Him//his
name].
21
may he equip you with all you need for doing his
will.
May he produce in you,
through the power of [Christ Jesus//Jesus
Christ],
every good thing that is pleasing to
him.
All glory to him forever and ever!
Amen.
