A Desolate House
from The Bible as Literature · host The Ephesus School
Heralding his Father’s Kingdom, Jesus bookends the conquest of Jerusalem in Matthew with the same words that announced his entrance: “Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.” Ending this section with a warning: “from now on you will not see me until you say” Matthew’s gospel extends God’s mercy to Jerusalem one last time. All of us have one final chance to confess our unrighteousness; One last opportunity to seek shelter under God’s wings instead of security wrought by the work of our own hands. Richard and Fr. Marc discuss Matthew 23:37-39.Episode 369 Matthew 23:37-39; Music:Big Drumming by Kevin MacLeodLink: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/7524-big-drummingLicense: https://filmmusic.io/standard-license ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
