Thoughts on the readings for March 4th (Leviticus 9, 10; Psalms 108, 109; 2 Corinthians 1, 2)

Leviticus chapter 9 tells of Aaron officiating at the altar on the eighth day. Verses 1-2 Aaron offered for himself the sin offering and the burnt offering. Verses 3-22 Aaron offers for the people the sin offering, burnt offering and peace offering. Verses 23-24 the glory of Yahweh appears and He consumes His portion of the offerings. Chapter 10 outlines the disruption of the ceremony through the sin of Nadab and Abihu. Verses 1-7 Nadab and Abihu, evidently under the influence of strong drink, offer strange fire and are struck dead. Verses 8-11 Aaron warned against the influence of strong drink. Verses 12-20 Moses attempts to complete the ceremony by instructing the priests to eat the people's portion of the offerings: a) the remainder of the peace offering)verses 12-13; cp. Leviticus 9:4, 17); b) the remainder of the peace offering (verses 14-15; cp. Leviticus 9:21); c) the remainder of the sin offering (Verses 16-20; cp. Leviticus 9:15). The above breakdown has been copied from brother John Martin's book, "The Schoolmaster - an exposition of the Book of Leviticus". Psalm 108 is a song of David's in which he expresses thanks for past deliverance and expresses his confidence in Yahweh's continued help. In verses 1-4 David describes his unshakable conviction in God's stedfast love and the awesome deeds God has done for His people. Therefore the Psalmist will compose songs of praise to his Sovereign. Songs that will be acknowledged by all nations who have beheld the mighty power of the God of Israel. The LORD has promised deliverance to His faithful saints. Verses 7-10 recounts successful battle campaigns. Verses 11-13 are a plea for help against the Edomites having suffered earlier setbacks. The writer's confidence will stay firm. Psalm 109 is a Psalm of David. It is in first application calling for the LORD to execute retribution against David's treacherous counsellor, Ahithophel. But the Psalm is Messianic and principally applies prophetically to our Lord Jesus Christ and his betrayer, Judas Iscariot. Of this we can certain since the Apostle Peter speaks of Judas, when quoting this Psalm in Acts 1:16-20. It is verse 8 of the Psalm which was quoted. Why were such judgements called upon Judas? Because he failed to show pity to "the poor and needy man" (verses 16 and 22). The extortion era mentioned in this song were the priests of Israel, who paid Judas 30 pieces of silver for his part in the betrayal. The Psalm reveals much about the base character of Judas of which the gospels are silent. But the treachery of Judas was to no avail for Yahweh's care and love encompassed His Anointed; and delivered him. 2 Corinthians is often called Paul's great letter of comfort. Chapter 1 tells us that one purpose of suffering is to render the sufferer a reservoir of compassion and comfort for others. The Apostle described his rock as the One who raised the dead (compare 1 Corinthians 15:32 - details can only be conjecture). The coming of Timothy with the news he carried about the response of the believers at Corinth was a tonic that revived his spirit. Chapter 2 provided further advice for what to do next if the wrongdoer was to be fully recovered. The chapter tells us that in Troas he pondered his blessings in our Lord Jesus Christ. His imagery is drawn from the practices which accompanied the Roman Triumphal procession. His ironic language contrasts the Apostles' sufferings for proclaiming the Gospel's message with the indifferent and lavish lifestyle of the Corinthian believers. Paul concludes the chapter by a declaration that it is God who he seeks to please and not fickle people driven by their own motives.

Thoughts on the readings for March 3rd March 3rd (Leviticus 8, Psalm 107,1 Corinthians 16)

In Leviticus chapters 8-10 we are told of the consecration of the priests - Aaron and his sons. Chapter 8 describes the activities of the first seven days. Verses 1-13 tell of Aaron and his sons being robed and anointed. Verses 14-17 speaks of Moses offering the sin offering on their behalf. Verses 18-21 tells of Moses offering the burnt offering for the priests. Verses 22-30 their peace offering is presented by Moses. Verses 31-36 tells us that the service of consecration was to last seven days - speaking of the covenant for which Aaron and his sons would be the ministers. Psalm 107 commences Book 5 of the Psalms - the Deuteronomy psalms, which go through to Psalm 148. Just as the 5th book of Moses crystallised the principles of the Law. So these Psalms are a distilling of the principles of the Almighty. It is then fitting that this section summarises what the LORD seeks from His children. The 107th Psalm could be encapsulated in the words from the ESV, and verse 2, "Let the redeemed of the LORD say, So". What is it that they say? From verse 1, "Oh give thanks to Yahweh, for He is good, for His stedfast love endures for ever!" This psalm is about the awesome deeds of our Father, the Almighty Creator and His incomparable Son. Our Lord Jesus revealed the Father's character to mankind. Jesus said that whatsoever the Son sees the Father do, that the Son does also. The Psalm is divided into distinct stanzas which are recognised by the call of the refrain ending each stanza, "Then they cried to the LORD in their trouble, and He delivered them from their distress ... Let them thank the LORD for His stedfast love, for His wondrous works to the children of man!" ESV. This refrain varies slightly, but is repeated in verses 6-8, 13-15, 19-21, 28-31 and 43. Each stanza refers to a generalised circumstance of life for the people of God; who having undergone the experience call upon their Almighty Delivery who responds out of His love for His children. And their response is to praise Him for His constant, dependable love and care. The reader can see in many of the related stories specific events that have overtaken the children of God. For example the stanza which begins with the words, verse 23, "They that go down to the sea in ships has an unmistakable echo to the Apostles on the Sea of Galilee when our Lord Jesus Christ calmed the Sea and they exclaimed, "Who is this? .." For it revealed to them that Jesus was Yahweh's incomparable Son. The Psalm finishes in verse 43, "Whoever is wise, let him attend to these things; let them consider the stedfast love of the LORD (ESV)." Let us pause and ponder. 1 Corinthians 16 tells us to be prepared for contributing money when we come to the Lord's Supper. The background to the starting of the collections among the Gentiles was to support their Jewish brethren who were suffering hardship due to their persecution for becoming believers in Christ Jesus and to alleviate the troubles brought by the great famine. The first day of the week was traditionally the day when the believers met to remember our Lord Jesus Christ in bread and wine. By the Jewish calendar it was after 6pm Saturday evening. Those believers who were blessed to have some money gave some of it at that time. It was done discretely that is why Paul requested preparation before they arrived at the gathering. In his final instructions the Apostle sends greetings and commends the house of Stephanos for their addiction to service of fellow believers. The letter ends with both a warning and an implied appeal, verses 22-24, "If anyone has no love for the Lord, let him be accursed. Our Lord come! The grace of the Lord Jesus be with you. My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen." (ESV) Contemplate our privileges in Christ - the blessings that we receive - and how we can love our Lord and live to please him now that we might graciously find a place in his kingdom.
