2025.11.08 Shabbat Reading
Patterns
-
Defilement and Separation
- Judgment on the Wicked
- Protection, Covenant Renewal, and Feasts/Worship
- Arrival in Safety and Eternal Rest
Genesis 33:18-Genesis 35:8
My Notes:
- Arrival in promised land; defilement by Canaanite sin; divine call to separation and worship; God's protection amid judgment on the wicked; covenant renewal at Bethel.
Nahum 1:12-2:5
My Notes:
- YHWH's judgment utterly destroys the oppressor (Assyria/Nineveh, who afflicted Judah); deliverance and peace for his people; call to worship and feasts; the wicked "cut off" while the remnant is preserved.
Revelation 22:8-21
My Notes:
- Worship YHWH alone; imminent judgment/reward; separation of righteous (access to tree of life, city) from wicked (outside); invitation to eternal life; curse on altering YHWH's word.
Psalm 28
