With A Sword In His Hand.

from A Light to the Nations - Scripture Analysis Podcast · host The Ephesus School

This episode looks at the remembrance in the Orthodox Church of Archangel Michael, the Chief Commander of the Bodiless Powers, in light of the reading at Vespers from Joshua Chapter 5. The victory granted to Joshua and the children of Israel is based on their adherence to the commandments of the Lord. The sword drawn in the hand of the supreme commander of the army of the Lord is not merely an instrument of war, but something more dreadful. Scripturally speaking, it is the Lord’s judgment. Notes:Joshua 5:13-15Exodus 3:1-5Genesis 3:24Ephesians 6:11-17“Fortune Presents Gifts Not According To The Book” performed by Dead Can Dance.“Koran” performed by Delirium.
