The title of Mark’s gospel makes clear that it’s all about Jesus, who is the Messiah, the Son of God. Mark presents this message in an economical and direct manner that will be useful for the persecuted 1st century Christians of Rome. Mark’s economic use of language should never be thought simplistic. Instead, he invites the reader’s inquiry into Jesus’ claim to be the kind of suffering servant saviour Messiah described in the latter writings of the prophet Messiah.
The Psalms of Ascent (going up to the Temple) offer us the perspective of the pilgrim on their journey to God. As disciples of Jesus Christ, we leave behind the ways of this world and we set our sights on life with him. We adopt his way of living, his priorities and perspectives.
In the twin books of Ezra and Nehemiah, some'� but not all'� of the Jewish exiles are returning to Jerusalem to rebuild, but they are very much still under the rule of a foreign king. God provides leaders for his people to begin reconstruction of Jerusalem's temple, walls, and worshipping structures. But the most important reconstruction work is that of the people's faith and commitment to God. @Growing-Disciples
Israel's exile to Babylon might seem far away and disconnected to the life of the Christian,... until we read the book of 1Peter. There we find that Christians have always been exiles in this world. Seeing ourselves through the lens of Israel's Exile helps us respond to the challenges of our time. @Growing-Disciples '�
