2 | Year of Jubilee for the Land? | Lev 25:24 | Hank | 137813 | ||
JRM - Modern man has got himself on such a frenzied treadmill to oblivion that he can't stop long enough to give himself a one-day sabbath once a week, much less to give the plundered land a whole year's rest every seventh year. There can be little doubt that the profane movers and shakers of our time would consider God's ways with His land obsolete, just as they consider His Ten Commandments out of step with modern times. But man's notion of doing what is right in his own eyes is not novel. He was hard at it during the ancient times of the judges. The fact that he made a mess of things by doing it then hasn't deterred him from doing it now. --Hank | ||||||
