Got behind on my reading and had to use the weekend catch-up to complete the first part of Luke. Still didn’t get the writing done. Until now. Hope you are all staying current as we’ve passed the halfway point of the year.
We know these first few chapters of Luke so well, reading through them over and over during our Christmas celebrations. One thing I hope you notice in these first two chapters is the balance Luke brings in providing a male and a female story in the telling. In chapter one, we see the angel visiting Zechariah and then visiting Mary. In chapter two, we hear the prophecy of Simeon, and then the testimony of Anna.
This will be a recurring theme throughout Luke’s gospel.
I thought you stopped! I got behind as well, and went to look at the blog and nothing was here! Glad to see you’re back. I enjoy the posts, even if I don’t comment all the time.
