From Genesis to Revelation: Jeremiah 39-45: Consequences of Disobedience
http://zoesbibleblog.blogspot.com/2010/09/jeremiah-39-45-consequences-of.html
From Genesis to Revelation. A journey through the Bible. Tuesday, September 7, 2010. Jeremiah 39-45: Consequences of Disobedience. We've now reached the part of the story where it all hits the fan, and a lot of the stuff Jeremiah has been warning and prophesying about, happens. First, the wall of Jerusalem is finally breached after a siege that lasted over a year. Nebuchadnezzar's men overtake the city; King Zedekiah and his whole army try to sneak out, but the Chaldeans capture them. But now the people ...

From Genesis to Revelation: January 2010

From Genesis to Revelation. A journey through the Bible. Friday, January 29, 2010. Deuteronomy 27-34: A Big Decrescendo before the Climax. So here we are, the Law has been reiterated, Moses is about to die, and the Israelites are about to go into the Promised Land under the direction of Joshua. Everything builds up, and then there's this major let-down before the ending. So that's the low point. In spite of all the hype, God totally knows that Israel is not going to remain faithful. And Moses, be...In ch...

From Genesis to Revelation: May 2008

From Genesis to Revelation. A journey through the Bible. Wednesday, May 21, 2008. Numbers 1-4: Let's Talk Math. It took me a while to get this far, because honestly, this book gave me some trouble from the beginning. I kept getting distracted by the fact that there were so many dang Israelites, and I didn't know if the numbers in the Bible were reasonable. I since found a site that really helped me out ( click here. Here's the first four chapters of this book in a nutshell:. Chapter 2: God tells Moses wh...

From Genesis to Revelation. A journey through the Bible. Wednesday, May 26, 2010. Isaiah 52-66: Restoration for the Transgressors. Recently, the thing that has struck me about Isaiah 53 is that it's not just our wickedness that Jesus atoned for. Verse 4 says "Surely our griefs He Himself bore, And our sorrows He carried." In the margin of my Bible I wrote this: "Not just our sins, but our sorrows. Hear, but that He doesn't. Chapters 60-66 cover a few different ideas, but I think they all are built around...

From Genesis to Revelation: Ezekiel 1-12: Ezekiel Makes a Case for Performing Arts?
http://zoesbibleblog.blogspot.com/2010/10/ezekiel-1-12-ezekiel-makes-case-for.html
From Genesis to Revelation. A journey through the Bible. Tuesday, October 5, 2010. Ezekiel 1-12: Ezekiel Makes a Case for Performing Arts? So now we skip to Ezekiel. At this point in my reading, I was relieved because Jeremiah was so depressing, and Ezekiel starts on a high note, what with the awesome visions of God and the cherubim and everything. But it goes downhill from there. And found some interesting stuff. Most of them forgot to add the eyes though. The neat thing about this is that God is using ...

From Genesis to Revelation: June 2010
http://zoesbibleblog.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
From Genesis to Revelation. A journey through the Bible. Tuesday, June 15, 2010. Jeremiah 1-10: A Book of Bad News, Mostly. I know, I know; I'm so behind. But I'm in the prophets, and the prophets are so depressing that it's hard to want to write about them. Jeremiah is no exception. God says that He is going to send him and tell him what to say and put the right words in his mouth. Do you ever pray for God to put words in your mouth? Their homeland is being destroyed, and them not listening to you!

From Genesis to Revelation: Jeremiah 11-19: Brokenness
http://zoesbibleblog.blogspot.com/2010/07/jeremiah-11-19-brokenness.html
From Genesis to Revelation. A journey through the Bible. Tuesday, July 13, 2010. I feel really bad about getting so behind on these things. It's just hard to blog about the prophets, like I said before. I feel like I'm saying the same thing over and over. I wonder if God felt that way when saying all this stuff to the prophets? To listen to God or turn back to Him. They don't want. In chapter 12, we see again God's disgust with his chosen people who have rejected Him. He says He is actually going to ...

From Genesis to Revelation: August 2010
http://zoesbibleblog.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
From Genesis to Revelation. A journey through the Bible. Sunday, August 8, 2010. Jeremiah 20-29: Jeremiah in Danger. Once again, apologies for the hiatus. When I get really far ahead in my reading I'm further discouraged from posting, so I've started just rereading the part I'm supposed to blog about until I get to blogging. Smart, eh? But the LORD is with me like a dread champion; Therefore my persecutors will stumble and not prevail. . . . Sing to the LORD, praise the LORD! End of the covenant, which w...

From Genesis to Revelation. A journey through the Bible. Tuesday, September 21, 2010. Jeremiah 46-52: Prophecies against Other Nations. In the prophecy against Babylon, God promises to return Judah to the promised land and that in those days "search will be made for the iniquity of Israel, but there will be none; and for the sins of Judah, but they will not be found; for I will pardon those whom I leave as a remnant.". Links to this post. Topics: 13 Jeremiah (book). Tuesday, September 7, 2010. Now I thin...
