Put Away the Sword

from The Bible as Literature · host The Ephesus School

A committed person is hard to find in 2021. Well, let me rephrase. All of us—every last one of us—are committed to ourselves, and we organize the time allotted to us as such. Few of us, less than a few, are committed to something that does not directly benefit us or someone for whom we care.In Matthew, Jesus is committed to the teaching of the Father. Even though his disciples are hopeless, the situation is stark, and his end, as per his Father, is unavoidable, Jesus continues to teach. Why? Because he is committed to his Father’s will, to the bitter end. Richard and Fr. Marc discuss Matthew 26:51-54. Episode 403 Matthew 26:51-54; Music:Anamalie by Kevin MacLeodLink: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/4980-anamalieLicense: https://filmmusic.io/standard-license ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
