Upon reading everything in this chapter, I don’t have much to say but that all these feasts must’ve been way to difficult for all the Israelites to follow, given Peter’s words in Acts 15:10 about how the Mosaic Law had been overencumbering and that Paul actually said around that time that it was faithless (Galatians 3:12). But I love the concept of parties for good reasons 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🎉🎉🎉🎊🎊🎊🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈✨✨✨✨✨ I know I enjoyed my time in Arizona State when I was beginning to follow Jesus and wanted to know more about Him. Indeed, every nation has holidays of some variant(s). But the fact that North Korea only has holidays revolving around their “Dear Leader” — I pray for freedom there and for an end to the outrageous everything 💔💔💔💔💔💔💔 this chapter is found in pages 71-72 of the NKJV Bible, pages 92-93 of the NASB Bible, pages 151-152 of my VOICE copy, and pages 149-151 of my Amplified Bible (Classic Edition) copy.
I’m also happy to share the article on this site I had written about a few weeks ago! Sorry it took so long… it was about how children deserve safety from all of us. If any of us fail on this, at least one of them may feel worthless. Indeed, I find it difficult to remember God’s love and kindness sometimes, for I know they’re sucking the life from the entire population, the politicians, and anyone who still votes for them God reproved as idolaters. What does this have to do with the post, you may ask? Well, many of the poor and foreigners were probably abused as children… I know I don’t like how I was raised, but it’s better to not be exposed to any false teachings from the Church than to grow up claiming to follow Jesus, I tell you what. I’m getting the “poor and foreigners” thing from verse 22 here, for they need our kindness and support for simply trying to believe hope even exists! I know I’ve needed help with that before, and to be honest, who hasn’t? It reminds me of a post I wrote about an earlier chapter in Leviticus some time back. I mentioned in it that I wanted to leave twice as much food as per the usual recipe of that other Leviticus verse concerning leaving food for those who don’t have much or are homeless. I think it was in chapter 19. I’m still in debt to my college loans, though, and if I manage to increase my savings to a sizeable amount, I think they’ll call me to pay it up. Indeed, they don’t want me to take their time and pay it back, for if I did, they’d only be offended, I’m sure, and Jesus’ kingdom’s latter days would be worse than how the Christian faith started for me.
But… seeing all these feasts and noting that you can celebrate Jesus however you feel He leads you and/or how it seems best… it reminds me of my schooldays when I was a kid and waiting for the next fun day after the next fun day. Indeed, I remember that Eddy said in Ed, Edd n Eddy (my favourite TV show growing up), “To be cool, we have to be two fads ahead of everybody else.” He was speaking to Ed and Edd (he’s often called Double D) about how they’d be ahead of all the others in the cul-de-sac, where the episodes usually took place. At one point, Eddy actually said (because of their fad), “Some people just can’t deal with greatness.” So, yeah. There’s some late 90s trivia for you reading this at home or wherever you are (it was part of the first season, released in 1999) 😅😅 so I don’t think it’s wrong to anticipate excitedly for the next fun thing that happens. And if everyone is true to their words about this, the wait will certainly be worth it. Note that I said “if”. I could go on all day about how I feel patience is used as bait too much.
In the next chapter, I’m honestly not sure what to expect, but I hope to get a good look into it and be back soon to discuss it with you, whether in person or in the comment section! I’ll see you then, and I hope you can take it easy ✌🏼
