Subject: Why don't we follow Luke 4:16 |
Bible Note: What was unclear is what part of the custom you were referring to. I think EdB was focused on reading -- but he can answer for himself. I thought you were talking about standing up as a form of volunteering or maybe it was the respectful way to read scripture. Now it appears your point was the day of the week; which is strange because you are requesting discussion also on a scripture whose context indicates it is no longer is binding -- which you may want to take down and repost because the typo in the heading will be confusing. The Sabbath by most who practice it as part of the law is reckoned from Friday at sunset to Saturday at sunset as opposed to the Lord's day where the practice was originally to gather early Sunday probably before going to work. You could have been talking about going to a synagogue as opposed to a church which may have become impossible but I am sure you could find one you would be welcome at if you can keep from evangelizing. At least were not all expected to go to Nazereth. |
