Mark's Books of Moses Blog. Sunday, February 28, 2010. The death of Judah’s first two sons. Vs 1-10)—This is an absolutely fascinating chapter which, at first reading, might cause one to wonder why it is even in the Bible. What’s the point? Well, there is a very valuable point and I’ll discuss it before I’m through. We don’t know exactly when “at that time”. V 7) So Judah told Onan, “Go in to your brother's wife and marry her, and raise up an heir to your brother”. Well, okay, Tamar replied, but “w...

Vs 1-4)—The message was “Thus says the LORD God of Israel: 'Let My people go, that they may hold a feast to Me in the wilderness'”.

Mark's Minor Prophets Blog. Saturday, February 27, 2010. The prophet and his prophecy. But this is in a Messianic context and probably doesn’t refer to the Babylonian captivity. I think the book was written early, i.e, late 9th century B.C. The context of the book is a devastating locust plague, “my army”. We have to understand chapter 3 as referring to the New Testament church age. I’ll discuss that more when we get there. Mark K. Lewis. Friday, February 26, 2010. But if they would “return to the ...

Mark's Minor Prophets Blog: June 2010
http://marksmpblog.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Mark's Minor Prophets Blog. Tuesday, June 29, 2010. The return of Judah. Vs 1-12)—The last few chapters of Zechariah are quite difficult, among the most challenging in the Bible. They appear to be Messianic, but it’s not always clear. There are some verses in chapter 10 that point to the church age, and I will look at them as I precede through this chapter. But I’m not going to be dogmatic about anything because of the obscurity of the material. And “comfort in vain”. Comes the cornerstone,”. V 5) In oth...

Mark's Book of Ezekiel Blog. Wednesday, August 11, 2010. V 3) As noted in the introduction, Ezekiel started his work in approximately 595 B. C., which was about nine years before the final destruction of the temple in Jerusalem. So he was indeed living in the midst of a "rebellious nation.". They were "impudent and stubborn children,". And his message, of course, was to be "Thus says the Lord God. V 4) Thus, the people would know that a true prophet was among them (v. 5). V 9) and he was told to eat it (...

Mark's Book of Psalms Blog. Wednesday, March 31, 2010. Obtaining the holy hill of God. Vs 1-5)—This psalm of David asks one question and answers it. The question is found in verse 1: “LORD, who may abide in Your tabernacle? Who may dwell in Your holy hill? It’s a good query. In effect, who is righteous before God? Who is the one who pleases Him? Who will live with Him forever? So, what is the answer? He who walks uprightly, works righteousness, and he who “speaks truth in his heart”. Mark K. Lewis. And t...

Vs 1-5)—In this song, David again trusts the Lord to vindicate him based on the king’s righteousness: “I have walked in my integrity, I have also trusted in the Lord”. V 1) Such is the only way we. Be vindicated. David asks the Lord to test him, “prove me, try my mind and my heart”. Ever before him, and walks in God’s truth (v. 3). Avoiding the wicked and hating evil is part of that (vs. 4-5). Protect me from sinners. 8220;I will w...
