I have literally never connected Saul-who-becomes-Paul with OT Saul. I knew both Josephs!

Beautiful explanation of why Cleopas must be with his wife!

I knew the result of breaking a covenant was death. I forgot that this covenant had other curses built into it from the beginning. That makes it rather more contract-like, actually.

Another reading of the Prodigal Son! I love how the perspectives ever end with that parable.

I thought Jesus was the first to call God "Father." Looking at the verse, there might be a punctuation problem happening.

I have never noticed that Jesus quotes Deuteronomy every time!

I don't think I ever knew that Gabriel was in the Old Testament, too, not even when I studied Daniel at the beginning of this year.

That's a decent explanation of why intermarriage was prohibited in the OT and went so wrong every time. It also speaks to how powerful sacramental grace is for making marriage work. I don't know how any marriage survives without it.

I don't think I've ever heard of this Israel/human, Gentile/beast symbolism before. I'm not sure how I feel about that (both the symbolism and that I've never heard of it before).

A century and a half? I hadn't realized it was that long. No wonder the Judeans got so snooty about their kingdom never falling because they had the Temple.
