There’s a story in the book of the prophet Jeremiah where he delivers a word from the Lord to a few of the kingdoms of that time.

About twenty years after Jesus died and resurrected, Paul asks a question to challenge the very way we think about every aspect our lives.

One of my favorite things about the Bible is how it will often give commentary on itself. Psalm 106 is primarily a commentary on the events of the Torah after God delivered the Israelites from Egyptian tyranny. The psalm’s lost author praises the LORD (YHWH) for His forgiveness towards Israel after all the terrible things they’ve done as a nation. He recognizes that they have sinned just like their ancestors, harkening back all the way to the time of Moses.
