You may remember that when I finished reading Exodus, I built a tabernacle. Well, one of my readers, a Miss Jamie Golden, suggested I decorate it. And just so you know that I listen to the feedback of my readers, I did it. Here it is. Caption please!
Confession: I read the last line of this chapter before reading the rest of it. I never do that! Endings are sacred to me. If you ever tell me the ending of a book or a movie I haven’t read or seen so help me I will . . . Woah, sorry, I got a … Continue reading
“All of this has happened before. And it will all happen again.” – Everyone on “Battlestar Galactica.” Is it possible that one random chapter of Leviticus is actually the key to understanding the entire narrative of the people of Israel? I’m gonna go ahead and say . . . maybe. Again, I’m no Bible scholar, … Continue reading
The Tabernacle has been built. Everything has been set up and rests in its proper place. God now lives with his people.

We have been waiting for this moment for 10 chapters and we can finally start! Bezalel and Oholiab, together with their small army of skilled workers are … Continue reading
I’m starting to think that the last chunk of Exodus is like hitting the reset button and trying to do things the right way. In the last chapter, God gave Moses the law again and now he finally gets to read it to an audience that is very much NOT worshiping a golden calf. The … Continue reading
Exodus 34 is a bit of a do-over. God and Moses basically redo the entire covenant in less than one chapter. Which kinda makes me wonder why we had to take so long with it the first time. The chapter ends with the famous “Sunshine Sparkle-Face Moses.” Ordinarily I would try to think of something … Continue reading
Moses, I gotta hand it to ya, the tent looks great. Was I right about Bezalel or was I RIGHT? Yeah, he did a nice job. Listen, there is something I want to talk to you about . . . About what I said the other day? Yes. The people found it to be quite … Continue reading
