It's Day 38
and we're in Exodus 16.
If you come
across something in your reading that doesn't make sense at first, be quick to
re-read and to ask questions. If I can help answer anything, drop me an email.
Where God Spoke To Me:
- Verses 3-4
- More whining instead of asking God to supply. Why are we so quick to blame
God instead of asking Him to take care of our problems?

Questions
You Have:
- "This
is definitely the chapter where the Jewish passover is laid out. If in chapter
14 the Jews are being directed to commorate this day as a celebration for
generations, why as Christians do we not also adhere to this directive? In the
past I have attended christianized Seder suppers on the Thursday before Easter
commorating the Last Supper and tying the sympbolism of the Passover meal with
the crucifixion. Why is this is not a common practice in most churches?"
- I don't think there's anything wrong with celebrating it and I have myself
participated in Passover meals occassionally. The Passover meal celebrates the
blood protecting them and saving them from death. I would argue that we have
the higher fulfillment of the original Passover as we look at Jesus' death. As
we celebrate communion, we participate in a meal that reminds us that the blood
protects us and saves us from death - but it's the blood of Jesus.
