"Sing to the Lord a new song;
sing to the Lord, all the earth.
Sing to the Lord, praise his name;
proclaim his salvation day after day.
Declare his glory among the nations,
his marvellous deeds among all peoples."

Psalm 96:1-3 #Bible #Faith

A quotation from The Bible

   Because, being ministers of his kingdom, ye have not judged aright, nor kept the law, nor walked after the counsel of God;
   Horribly and speedily shall he come upon you: for a sharp judgment shall be to them that be in high places.
   For mercy will soon pardon the meanest: but mighty men shall be mightily tormented.
 
[ὅτι ὑπηρέται ὄντες τῆς αὐτοῦ βασιλείας οὐκ ἐκρίνατε ὀρθῶς
οὐδὲ ἐφυλάξατε νόμον
οὐδὲ κατὰ τὴν βουλὴν τοῦ θεοῦ ἐπορεύθητε.
φρικτῶς καὶ ταχέως ἐπιστήσεται ὑμῖν,
ὅτι κρίσις ἀπότομος ἐν τοῖς ὑπερέχουσιν γίνεται.
ὁ γὰρ ἐλάχιστος συγγνωστός ἐστιν ἐλέους,
δυνατοὶ δὲ δυνατῶς ἐτασθήσονται·]

apart from me there is no God.
I will strengthen you,

I am the LORD, and there is no other."

"Then the LORD said, 'There is a place near me where you may stand on a rock. When my glory passes by, I will put you in a cleft in the rock and cover you with my hand until I have passed by. Then I will remove my hand and you will see my back; but my face must not be seen.'"

Richard Stock, Puritan rector in London, held that the magistrate is ordained chiefly to protect widows, orphans and the poor, not great men able to defend their own causes. A coppice is fenced for the saplings, not the oaks. Today everyone wants a fence, and the oaks have discovered they are terribly vulnerable: aid to the poor, a queue at the post office, mild inconvenience of any kind, all now oppressions from which the comfortable must be liberated.

Whom can you help?

Black square graphic. Left: an engraved portrait of Richard Stock, a bearded man in a skullcap, ruff and gown, framed by a Latin inscription naming him an English theologian. Beneath it in bold white type: "RICHARD STOCK (1569–1626)," then in italics, "A Commentary upon the Prophecy of Malachi." Right, in white text, the quotation: "For the magistrate is specially ordained for [protecting these poor], not for such as are great men, who neither will do right nor suffer wrong, able enough to right themselves and defend their own causes; or not so much for these as for the poor orphans, widows, and such like. As the defence is for the little coppice and small trees of growth, not for the great oaks, they have not such need of fencing against beasts as those."

A quotation from The Bible

What hope do wicked people have? Only the hope of straw blown about in the wind, the hope of ocean foam that disappears in the storm, the hope of smoke in the breeze. Their hope lasts no longer than our memory of a guest who stays one day and leaves the next.
 
[ὅτι ἐλπὶς ἀσεβοῦς ὡς φερόμενος χνοῦς ὑπὸ ἀνέμου
καὶ ὡς πάχνη ὑπὸ λαίλαπος διωχθεῖσα λεπτὴ
καὶ ὡς καπνὸς ὑπὸ ἀνέμου διεχύθη
καὶ ὡς μνεία καταλύτου μονοημέρου παρώδευσεν.]

I open them in this post.

Some of these words are thousands of years old and you’ll still hear them on an Israeli street this week.

Once you hear them the season itself will feel different, wherever you’re watching the leaves fall.

JOSEPH SON OF JACOB. Joseph distributes bread in prison Genesis 39:22 in "La Sainte Bible: Ancien Testament . . . par J.-James Tissot" Brunoff 1904 (with pen and ink sketches in John Rylands Library copy). https://phillipmedhurst.com/2017/06/07/phillip-medhurst-presents-069788-james-tissot-bible-c-1899-joseph-distributes-bread-in-prison-genesis-3922-jewish-museum-new-york/ #Bible, #BookOfGenesis, #Egypt, #Genesis, #JamesTissot, #Joseph, #JosephSonOfJacob, #OldTestament, #Prison, #Tanakh, #Tissot, #Torah

Hugh Latimer, Reformation bishop later burned at Oxford, preached at Stamford that our goods are given us so our abundance might relieve the necessity, poverty and misery of poor neighbours, spent on mercy, not riot and excess. Today the misery of certain groups is again much discussed, though less as a summons to pity than as evidence they oughtn't be living near us at all. Latimer would doubtless have found this a refreshing new reading of 2 Corinthians.

Black square graphic. Left: a Tudor-era painted portrait of Hugh Latimer, a white-bearded man in a black cap and gown, holding a book with spectacles hanging at his chest, labeled "Hugh Latimer, Bishop of Worcester," with a coat of arms. Beneath it in bold white italic type: "HUGH LATIMER (1485–1555)," then "A Sermon Preached by M. Hugh Latimer, at Stamford, November 9, Anno 1550." Right, in white text, the quotation: "And indeed so ought men to consider their gifts and goods to be given, ut illorum copia aliorum succurrat inopiae; that their abundance might succour the necessity, poverty, and misery of their poor neighbours; and not to waste it, consume it in riot and excess, but in deeds of mercy, in deeds of charity, and pity upon the poor."

"But Moses sought the favour of the LORD his God. 'LORD,' he said, 'why should your anger burn against your people, whom you brought out of Egypt with great power and a mighty hand? Why should the Egyptians say, "It was with evil intent that he brought them out, to kill them in the mountains and to wipe them off the face of the earth"? Turn from your fierce anger; relent and do not bring disaster on your people. Remember your servants Abraham, Isaac and Israel, to whom you swore by your own self: "I will make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and I will give your descendants all this land I promised them, and it will be their inheritance for ever."' Then the Lord relented and did not bring on his people the disaster he had threatened."

Exodus 32:11-14 #Bible #Faith

Neglecting family discipline brings spiritual consequences, reminding believers that divine judgment falls when a leader knows wrongdoing and "did not restrain them" (1 Samuel 3:13 NKJV).

"But whatever were gains to me I now consider loss for the sake of Christ. What is more, I consider everything a loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them garbage, that I may gain Christ and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ – the righteousness that comes from God on the basis of faith."

A quotation from Galileo

It is very pious to say and prudent to affirm that the holy Bible can never speak untruth — whenever its true meaning is understood. But I believe nobody will deny that it is often very abstruse, and may say things which are quite different from what its bare words signify. Hence in expounding the Bible if one were always to confine oneself to the unadorned grammatical meaning, one might fall into error. Not only contradictions and propositions far from true might thus be made to appear in the Bible, but even grave heresies and follies.

Galileo Galilei (1564–1642) Italian astronomer, physicist, engineer, polymath
Letter (1651) to Christina of Lorraine, Grand Duchess of Tuscany [tr. Drake (1957)]
