-93- In the last year two different people told me, at church, that they wanted to kill themselves that day, and they didn't feel comfortable going up because the whole message had been about joining the church. People come to church because they don't know where else to go, and we point them to everything except him. The God of the universe became a man, was rejected by his own, was tortured and died and rose, and through him we're brought into the love the Father has had for the Son since before the world began.

-95- Tonight at sundown is Shemini Atzeret, the eighth day. After seven days of Sukkot, God adds one more day to the calendar in Leviticus 23:36, and he never says why. The seven days of booths have a reason (Leviticus 23:43). The eighth day just gets a name, atzeret, built on a Hebrew root that means to hold back, and after seventy bulls across the week, Numbers 29 gives it one. The rabbis heard something in that silence. The Talmud says the seventy bulls were for the nations of the world and the one bull was for Israel alone (Sukkah 55b). And Rashi tells it as a king whose sons are getting up to leave his feast: my sons, please, stay with me one more day. Your leaving is hard on me. That's their tradition, so hold it loosely. Then Luke tells a story with the very same shape. On resurrection day, two disciples walking away from Jerusalem press a stranger at their door: stay with us, it's getting dark (Luke 24:29). And he goes in. A few verses later he tells them to stay in the city (Luke 24:49), and on Pentecost, which the first-century historian Josephus says the Hebrews called Asartha (Antiquities 3.252), the Helper comes who remains with you forever (John 14:16-17). He said please first. Then he stayed on the cross when they dared him to come down. #Jesus #BibleStudy #SheminiAtzeret #ChristianTikTok #ThreadOfEverything

The Talmud says the seventy bulls were for the nations of the world and the one bull was for Israel alone (Sukkah 55b). And Rashi tells it as a king whose sons are getting up to leave his feast: my sons, please, stay with me one more day. Your leaving is hard on me. That's their tradition, so hold it loosely. Then Luke tells a story with the very same shape. On resurrection day, two disciples walking away from Jerusalem press a stranger at their door: stay with us, it's getting dark (Luke 24:29). And he goes in. A few verses later he tells them to stay in the city (Luke 24:49), and on Pentecost, which the first-century historian Josephus says the Hebrews called Asartha (Antiquities 3.252), the Helper comes who remains with you forever (John 14:16-17). He said please first. Then he stayed on the cross when they dared him to come down. #Jesus #BibleStudy #SheminiAtzeret #ChristianTikTok #ThreadOfEverything

-93- In the last year two different people told me, at church, that they wanted to kill themselves that day, and they didn't feel comfortable going up because the whole message had been about joining the church. People come to church because they don't know where else to go, and we point them to everything except him. The God of the universe became a man, was rejected by his own, was tortured and died and rose, and through him we're brought into the love the Father has had for the Son since before the world began. That's what we're supposed to hand people. If you're in that place right now, please tell someone today. In the US, call or text 988. #Church #Jesus #TheCross #ChristianTikTok #mentalhealth

-94- Noah's dove "found no resting place for the sole of her foot." Centuries later Moses turns that exact sentence into a curse. Then God asks the same question about himself. Here is where the foot finally comes down. If my last video stirred something up and you've walked out of church after church with nowhere to land, this one's for you. #bible #biblestudy #hebrew #christian #jesus

-95- Tonight at sundown is Shemini Atzeret, the eighth day. After seven days of Sukkot, God adds one more day to the calendar in Leviticus 23:36, and he never says why. The seven days of booths have a reason (Leviticus 23:43). The eighth day just gets a name, atzeret, built on a Hebrew root that means to hold back, and after seventy bulls across the week, Numbers 29 gives it one. The rabbis heard something in that silence. The Talmud says the seventy bulls were for the nations of the world and the one bull was for Israel alone (Sukkah 55b).
