Hey everybody.
2
:Welcome back to another edition
of the daily Bible podcast.
3
:Here we go again.
4
:Here we go.
5
:Again, a few days out from the trans
formed conference, the transformed
6
:conference.org or our G yeah.
7
:And if you still want to come and
you aren't registered there's time.
8
:There's times jump online,
get registered show up.
9
:Talk about some of the topics that
we're going to be expecting to hear.
10
:Uh, marriage and family.
11
:And.
12
:Uh, things about husbands
and wives and family members.
13
:No, I just call it transformed.
14
:Because.
15
:Going to do with optimists
and yes, transformers.
16
:We're going to actually have
transformers there, dude.
17
:That would be so cool.
18
:My kids would love it.
19
:They would love it, but unfortunately,
we're not going to have that.
20
:That's a bummer.
21
:Um, no, it's, it's uh, this is
such an important conference.
22
:I don't mean to make light of it.
23
:It is, uh, the, the topic, the subject.
24
:In fact, I was thinking about it
today, reflecting on it today.
25
:Um, Satan hates your family.
26
:And I don't know if you understand that.
27
:Satan absolutely hates the building
block of the nuclear family.
28
:And yet God has chosen the building
block in the nuclear family as
29
:the very foundation of society.
30
:From the very beginning, it's
been a husband and wife and
31
:children, and that's been his
design and that's been his program.
32
:That's been his plan.
33
:And he's used that to form cultures.
34
:He's used that to form his own people and
the people of Israel he's used that to.
35
:Uh, to, to launch churches and bring
churches together, churches are made up of
36
:family units coming together to do this.
37
:He's used the family to be the first
classrooms for children to hear about him.
38
:He's used the family to be.
39
:Uh, the, the place where people
in neighborhoods are brought
40
:into relationship with him as, as
people share the gospel with them.
41
:And so the family is so integral to God's
plan for what he's doing in this world.
42
:And that's why Satan hates your family.
43
:And so we want to make sure that you
understand why the family matters
44
:biblically speaking, and you may get it.
45
:I get that conceptually.
46
:You're probably like, okay.
47
:Yeah.
48
:I'm tracking with that.
49
:But there are so many important
topics for us to dive into.
50
:I'm going to kick it off with kind of an
overview on, on why marriage and family
51
:matter in, in general and kind of building
on what I was just talking about there.
52
:But, uh, our second session on
Friday night, pastor Mike is going
53
:to be giving a, an admonition to
why the church matters in family.
54
:Uh, why should the church
impact your family?
55
:Why should it be something that
you prioritize in your family?
56
:And so that'll be a session
two on Friday night.
57
:There's going to be some
meet and greet afterwards.
58
:Um, And then Saturday, we're
getting into the, the gist of, uh,
59
:of the day that the main session.
60
:And so Dr.
61
:Mueller, Albert Mueller is going
to open up and highlight three
62
:marriages and church history.
63
:So he's going to be focusing in on.
64
:Some significant historical marriages
and what we can learn from them.
65
:Uh, the next session, session four.
66
:I think this one's going to
be again, very, very practical
67
:disciplining the next generation.
68
:So pastor, Mike's going to talk about.
69
:Discipline in the home.
70
:And for you as parents with kids, I
know we have a lot of young families
71
:in our church, which is great.
72
:Um, and I remember a young dad
trying to figure out discipline
73
:and how to do it, and it.
74
:Some parameters worth.
75
:This is going to be a super
helpful message for that.
76
:Disciplining the next generation.
77
:After this, we're going to have a
Q and a, from two 15 to three 15.
78
:That's going to be an opportunity to
ask your questions on these topics.
79
:Any questions at all?
80
:At these topics.
81
:Exactly.
82
:I'm just going to be up there
and seeing, but, uh, Dr.
83
:Mohler will be up there.
84
:Dr.
85
:FUBARs is going to be up there.
86
:Pastor Mike, he's going to be, they're
going to be answering questions there.
87
:And then Dr.
88
:Mohler is going to be up again after that,
talking about the family in the future.
89
:Again, I think this is another
one that's gonna be super helpful.
90
:What are the threats?
91
:Right?
92
:I want to see, I want
to be at all of these.
93
:Well, you will be.
94
:Um, what kind of whittling, what are
the threats that we are anticipating
95
:coming down the pipeline for us and
even after this election, right.
96
:Just because we get a four year respite,
maybe, um, we still need to know
97
:what are some of these threats and,
uh, and that's going to be a super.
98
:Really, really tangible dig your
teeth into a message on, on what
99
:to anticipate coming forward.
100
:And men have that, man.
101
:Well, you know what?
102
:It's a rare condition this day and age to
read any good news on the newspaper page.
103
:I mean, love and tradition
and the grand design.
104
:Some people say that's
even harder to find.
105
:I mean, I'm just thinking off the top of
my head here, but as days go by, we're
106
:going to fill our houses with happy.
107
:Okay, I'm sorry.
108
:I repent.
109
:I'll stop.
110
:They'll stop.
111
:We should call it.
112
:The family matters.
113
:I'm just saying that I was there.
114
:I found this out.
115
:I'm sorry.
116
:This is slightly unrelated, but related.
117
:The guy who sings the family matters.
118
:Yes.
119
:And the full house song
and the, uh, family time.
120
:He saying everything.
121
:I think he did wonder years too.
122
:Um, I don't know if that's, well,
yeah, the, this, this guy who sings
123
:that song, he's all over the place.
124
:Yes dab.
125
:Yeah.
126
:Um, yeah, it's, it's, it's crazy.
127
:My whole childhood is this guy's voice.
128
:Yep.
129
:And I never noticed it in.
130
:Want me to the moon, really New York.
131
:That's a, that's a different guy.
132
:Um, no, I think that I'm
pretty sure it's the same guy.
133
:Really.
134
:Um, yeah, Frank Sinatra, same guy.
135
:I think we're talking about the same guy.
136
:Frank Sinatra.
137
:Yes, but not the guy who's
saying the I'm pretty sure
138
:he's saying family matters too.
139
:Okay.
140
:Okay.
141
:Anyway, join us at the conference.
142
:You're not going to be disappointed.
143
:It's going to be a great
set of teaching of Q and a.
144
:Not gonna wanna miss this.
145
:At the time it's man, it
is going to be so rich.
146
:The closer it gets, the more and
more excited I'm getting myself.
147
:It's gotta be great.
148
:Yeah.
149
:You're there.
150
:A good memory.
151
:The same way to promo code.
152
:Providence Providence.
153
:But it's all upper case.
154
:Yes.
155
:If you want to, if you want to save
$25, $25, if you want to spend an extra
156
:$50, use the promo code, random chance.
157
:Uh, sure.
158
:Yeah.
159
:Yeah, or just write a
check to pastor rod Gomez.
160
:And mail it to you.
161
:I prefer, I prefer they take
the other side here, random
162
:chance in the promo codes.
163
:Okay.
164
:And then, yeah.
165
:See what happens.
166
:Do you pay $50 more?
167
:All right.
168
:Well that wouldn't be random.
169
:That's pretty calculated.
170
:Well, Let's jump into the word of God.
171
:Let's.
172
:Also something that random
Matthew 27 and, uh, mark 15.
173
:There's some overlap
between these two chapters.
174
:A lot of similar ground is
going to be covered here.
175
:Uh, but it's, it's helpful
for us to see them.
176
:Laid on top of one another.
177
:So again, right off the bat, Matthew
27, 1 through two, we've got, uh,
178
:he, Jesus being turned over to pilot.
179
:Um, after he gives to Caiaphas.
180
:So first he starts with typhus.
181
:Kind of just being the high priest.
182
:They decided he has to die after
trumping up charges against
183
:him on tearing down the temple.
184
:And, uh, in tearing the robe
and accusing them of blossoming.
185
:Well, the Jews didn't have
the ability to crucify Jesus.
186
:They couldn't do that
of their own authority.
187
:They needed to go to the Romans.
188
:And the Romans were the only ones
that could issue that death sentence.
189
:And so that's why Jesus goes from
Caiaphas to pilot here in the
190
:beginning of Matthew chapter 27.
191
:And so they take him there, they deliver
over there and meanwhile, then we
192
:get this vignette flashback to Judas.
193
:Judas.
194
:It says in Matthew 27, 3 changed his mind.
195
:Now sometimes you'll hear people
say that that's what repentance is.
196
:Repentance is a changing of the mind.
197
:I'm changing my mind about my sin.
198
:I'm changing my mind
about this relationship.
199
:I'm changing my mind about this
thing and that's me repenting.
200
:But this is why it's so important that we
differentiate repentance from changing our
201
:mind, because this word here that's used
to change his mind by Matthew's account
202
:in Matthew chapter 27, 3 is not the same
word that we get for, for repentance.
203
:Repentance is a different word that meant
in military terms and about face that
204
:implied a change, not only of mine, but
also of direction, Judas changes his mind,
205
:but you just never changes his direction.
206
:Judas never truly repents.
207
:And that's why in this tragic scene.
208
:I mean here, you have Judas
going back to the precinct.
209
:Okay.
210
:Yeah, I was wrong.
211
:Take the money back.
212
:They said, no, we're
not going to take that.
213
:It's tainted with, with
somebody's blood on it now.
214
:And then he ends up going
out and killing himself.
215
:And they take the money and they buy
a Potter's field for the burial of
216
:the poor and the unknown in the area.
217
:But this is a horrible, tragic
end for Judas here in Matthew 27.
218
:Yeah, just a quick
commentary about that too.
219
:On Judas.
220
:Second Corinthians chapter seven, verse 10
and 11 verse 10 is specifically for God.
221
:The grief produces a repentance that
leads to salvation without regret.
222
:That word regret is what we
have here for, for Judas.
223
:He has regret, although he
doesn't have repentance.
224
:And Paul says here.
225
:Uh, we're as worldly grief produces death.
226
:So he has repentance and of course
he eventually kills himself, which
227
:is correspondent to the kind of
sorrow that he felt it wasn't godly.
228
:Repentance.
229
:God, the repentance will not do that.
230
:If you're interested in, in a
great sermon highlighting the
231
:differences between Judas and Peter.
232
:Can I recommend a sermon by Bobby Blakey?
233
:Who's the pastor of compass
HB compass Huntington beach.
234
:And the sermon is called.
235
:Everyone feels bad about Jesus.
236
:And so if you searched Bobby Blakey,
everyone feels bad about Jesus.
237
:I think that'll come up super good sermon.
238
:Talking about the difference
between worldly grief in God,
239
:the grief highlighting those
two individuals specific for.
240
:Yeah.
241
:All right.
242
:So then we flashed back here in verse 11.
243
:Jesus is now before pilot and Jesus
is being interviewed by pilot pilots,
244
:asking them all these different
questions, because he wants to know
245
:whether or not he's deserving of death.
246
:And the only question Jesus really
answers is when pilot asks him, if he
247
:is the king of the Jews and Jesus says
he is, he says, yeah, you've said that
248
:it is so anything else he won't answer.
249
:And so pilot has this idea.
250
:He said, surely this is just jealousy.
251
:So he offers the crowd, a known
insurrectionist a murderer in Barabis.
252
:So.
253
:There's no way they're going to choose
Barabis let's just call their bluff.
254
:Well, the, the religious leaders
have stirred up the crowd so
255
:much that they will not be
reasonable people at this point.
256
:And they call for the release
of this convicted murderer.
257
:And demand that Jesus
be crucified in instead.
258
:And so pilot, his hands are tied.
259
:He ceremonial.
260
:Uh, ceremonial, he washes his hands
as though that's going to make him
261
:innocent of this and in a spineless move.
262
:Turns Jesus over to avoid a riot and
engage gives Jesus to be crucified,
263
:even though he, by his own admission
says, there's nothing that I can find
264
:with this man that deserves crucifixion.
265
:So pilot's kind of a slime ball.
266
:He is not a good character for
us in any way, shape or form.
267
:And that's consistent with
historical records about who he is.
268
:His character is.
269
:He's kind of a, an interesting
character in the gospels.
270
:He might even seem somewhat
like a good guy, right.
271
:Because he does push back on them.
272
:And he, you know, he, he
obviously acknowledges that
273
:they have ulterior motives.
274
:Uh, but he's really not a good guy.
275
:Historically speaking.
276
:There's a lot of dirt on pilot that
just does not put them in a very helpful
277
:or very, very positive spotlight.
278
:So this is consistent with this character.
279
:He's a politician when
it comes down to it.
280
:And he's concerned about
keeping his position of power.
281
:And the Jews, the Jewish leaders that are,
that is, are playing their, their hand.
282
:Well, they're, they're essentially
saying, look, you don't want it right.
283
:Do you pilot that would
look very bad on you.
284
:And certainly you want
to keep your position.
285
:So if you want to do things
the right way, you're going to
286
:help us get rid of this guy.
287
:Right.
288
:So there's a mutual, uh, shaking
each other's hands here to say,
289
:okay, we both like our power.
290
:Let's just get rid of this guy together.
291
:So.
292
:Pilot's not a great guy, even though
it seems like he's the victim here.
293
:He's certainly not.
294
:He's not in a sense.
295
:He's certainly going to be
held accountable for his place.
296
:Yup.
297
:Yeah, from here, uh, Jesus has turned over
to the soldiers who mock and beat him.
298
:Uh, there's probably took place right.
299
:Adjacent to the temple Mount in a
building called the Antonia fortress.
300
:It's not there anymore, but it was
a Roman fortress that was built
301
:intentionally right by the temple Mount.
302
:So that the Romans could keep tabs on
what was going on with the Jewish people.
303
:And so this is probably where this trial
is taking place and where Jesus is being
304
:mocked and beaten, um, is, is right there.
305
:And then they, they lead him out
and we get the crucifixion account.
306
:And this is verses 32 through 38.
307
:Uh, here they contract a man from the
crowd Simon who ends up carrying Jesus
308
:cross in the state that he was in with
all of his beatings and floggings.
309
:He wouldn't have had the physical
strength in his humanity left
310
:to bear his, his crossbeam to
the police at the crucifixion.
311
:So they call this man Simon.
312
:In from the crowd and they have him
drink or they have him carry the cross.
313
:And then when they get there and
they crucify him and it's, I'm
314
:always struck by how simply the, the
authors, the biblical authors depict
315
:and tell us that they crucified him.
316
:Yeah, verse 35.
317
:Doesn't even like it.
318
:It's just, and when
they crucified him yeah.
319
:It didn't make a bigger point of
it, then you would think they'd be
320
:like, and then there was silence.
321
:And then, you know, then they
stuck the nail in his head.
322
:You'd expect a little more drama in right.
323
:But they just stated as a matter of fact.
324
:Right.
325
:Right.
326
:And they offer him this drink.
327
:And if you're wondering what that was,
it was a, basically an anesthetic that
328
:was meant to Dole some of the pain.
329
:It was, it.
330
:It was a
331
:kind of a tacit act of mercy towards the
criminals that were dying to try to dull
332
:some of the senses and Jesus refuses it,
I think because he was there to absorb the
333
:full wrath and really the, the ultimate
pain that he was going to feel though he
334
:experienced much physical pain, but the
ultimate pain he was going to experience
335
:was the pain of the father's wrath on him.
336
:And that wasn't something that, that
this wine was going to be able to.
337
:To Dole.
338
:You've got the casting of lots for his
clothes in fulfillment of Psalm 22.
339
:18 there.
340
:And then the note that he was crucified
between two thieves who are mocking
341
:him along with the rest of the leaders.
342
:Uh, versus 39 through 44.
343
:Uh, all of these calls and there's so
much irony in there, mockery here because
344
:they're calling on him to save himself.
345
:And they're saying over and
over, and again, you who would
346
:save other, save yourself.
347
:Not realizing that gee could
Jesus have saved himself.
348
:Sure.
349
:But in saving himself, he would
have sealed the fate of every
350
:other person and saving himself.
351
:He wouldn't have saved anyone else.
352
:If you were to have gotten down from the
cross, the way that they were mocking
353
:him and challenging him to do this.
354
:Yeah.
355
:And their statement in verse 42 had.
356
:Get down and we'll believe you.
357
:Like that, that's a, that's a lie.
358
:Even if Jesus gotten off the cross,
they wouldn't have believed in him.
359
:But more than that, there would
have been nothing to believe in.
360
:Because there would
have been no sacrifice.
361
:There would've been no atoning.
362
:Uh, sacrifice made so that
they could believe in anything
363
:of substance at that point.
364
:Right.
365
:So it's, it's a tragic scene.
366
:It's it's the, the leaders just more
evidence that they don't understand.
367
:And then in verses 45 through
50, you get this, this.
368
:Encounter in, I found myself reading this
in this, and also in mark 15, still trying
369
:to just understand fully how Jesus dies.
370
:Like that, that idea that God dies.
371
:And this is the stumbling
block for the Jews.
372
:This is the stumbling block
today for, uh, the Muslims.
373
:This is why the, the Muslims point to the
fact that they say there's no way that
374
:he could be God, because God cannot die.
375
:And Jesus dies.
376
:Uh, this is why so many people have
led to two other theories for the
377
:resurrection beyond the fact that
he actually rose the Swoon theory.
378
:He didn't actually die on the cross.
379
:It's unbelievable that here you have
God dying in the form of, of Christ
380
:Jesus in his full humidity dying.
381
:That's it.
382
:That's an amazing thing for
us to try to comprehend.
383
:And it's the only
religion that offers this.
384
:There's there's.
385
:I guess there are.
386
:Okay.
387
:There, there are gods dying.
388
:Uh, but, but in this case, in the, in
the Christian faith, Our God dies for us.
389
:And he rises again,
conquering sin and death.
390
:There's nothing like this.
391
:In any other world, religion, you don't
have the full forgiveness of sins.
392
:You don't have full righteousness
given to you as a gift.
393
:Uh, received by faith.
394
:You don't have this.
395
:And this is what makes the Christian
message so unique and attractive.
396
:This is one thing that the devil
is not for counterfeited yet.
397
:And this is what makes our message.
398
:So universally relevant, no matter
where you are and what time you
399
:are, this message still sayings.
400
:Yeah.
401
:Yeah.
402
:By the way, Jesus, the time markers
that Matthew gives here, he gives the
403
:sixth hour to the, the ninth hours when
darkness came, that would have been
404
:about 12:00 PM to 3:00 PM, but Jesus
had been crucified according to what
405
:we learned in other gospels, including
mark 15, that we're about to see.
406
:Uh, beginning at the third hour,
which would have been 9:00 AM.
407
:So Jesus is on the cross for
six hours before he dies.
408
:And yet what we'll find in
Mark's gospel is, is that
409
:still was not a very long time.
410
:Uh, for, for somebody to die.
411
:Crucifixion right.
412
:Um, Yeah, so Jesus dies.
413
:Matthew 27 50.
414
:He calls out my God, my God.
415
:Why have you forsaken me?
416
:Uh, that moment of him experiencing the
full wrath of the father against our sin.
417
:And then the responses in verses
51 through 54, the veil is torn.
418
:The tombs are open.
419
:That's unique to Matthew.
420
:He records.
421
:That is the only one you have
the teams open people, walk out.
422
:Which.
423
:Why is he the only one that records that.
424
:I don't know.
425
:Is it beyond the pale of reasonableness?
426
:No.
427
:I mean, look at Lazarus, Lazarus came out
and would eventually go back in and all
428
:these people that leave the tomb, they're
eventually going to die and go back in.
429
:But.
430
:This is the, this is
what the text says here.
431
:Well, and I would be quick to note too.
432
:Uh, there, there's a bit of a
disagreement about some of the Greek
433
:behind this, but I want you to notice
that if you're reading what the in.
434
:And the ESV with us.
435
:There's an important component to this.
436
:That seems at first at a place he
says here in verse 52 tombs were
437
:opened many bodies of the saints who
had fallen asleep were raised and
438
:coming out of the tombs, get this.
439
:After his resurrection, they went into
the holy city and appeared to many.
440
:So now Jesus remains the first fruits
of the resurrection because they
441
:come out after his resurrection.
442
:So it's here.
443
:You wouldn't expect it to be
here, but Matthew's adding a note
444
:at this takes place after the
resurrection, which is, I think.
445
:Yeah, there's a, there's a handful
of translations that are not going to
446
:translate it that way as being after.
447
:I think this is a good one.
448
:It's the right one.
449
:And, uh, it keeps it a
preserved Jesus being the first
450
:fruits of the resurrection.
451
:If this is the resurrection in the
sense of glorification glorification.
452
:Which I.
453
:They're saints who have fallen asleep.
454
:Aye.
455
:Aye.
456
:Aye.
457
:I guess it's possible that it could
just be a general resurrection of.
458
:That would be unusual for.
459
:That would be to me more of a problem than
saying, okay, these are glorified saints
460
:who are kind of a foretaste and a preview,
a Costco size sample of what's to come.
461
:That makes more sense to me.
462
:Yeah.
463
:I don't know, man, because the, we
don't have any evidence of anyone
464
:else receiving their glorified
bodies prior to the rapture.
465
:I don't know what else.
466
:Okay then.
467
:Yeah.
468
:Yes, that's true.
469
:Which would make this.
470
:Which is why this would be so unique.
471
:But to say that this is a
general resurrection of sorts.
472
:Okay.
473
:Like.
474
:What, what, why.
475
:Like, what would that do?
476
:What would that accomplish?
477
:That to me also presents a lot of
questions and I guess they both do.
478
:And neither one of them are
a solid, a solid case, but.
479
:The first one makes more
sense to be in the second one.
480
:So, yeah, I guess I'm on
the opposite side of it.
481
:I think these are our like Lazarus
people that were resuscitated.
482
:To come out of the teams.
483
:Why?
484
:I don't know.
485
:It's fair.
486
:It's a fair approach.
487
:It's a, I just don't know.
488
:I, yeah, I feel, yeah.
489
:It doesn't tell us he
doesn't that's the problem.
490
:We'll have to ask when we get there.
491
:Versus the 55 to 56.
492
:The women are there at the tomb
in, and you might say, okay, So,
493
:well, that's important because
that points to contradicting.
494
:One of the theories in that is
that they didn't know where the
495
:tomb was or that there weren't eye
witnesses do his death on the cross.
496
:And so here, even these
details help us with that.
497
:And then he's buried in verses 50.
498
:Th 57 through 66.
499
:Uh, mark 15 picks up again, a
lot of the similar material here.
500
:He's at pilot.
501
:You've got Barabis.
502
:You've got a mocked and beaten.
503
:You've got the crucifixion.
504
:Again, Mark's detail on verse 25.
505
:It was the third hour.
506
:Um, verse 28.
507
:It is not there.
508
:Did you notice that.
509
:There's no mark 1528.
510
:There's a few places
where that's like that.
511
:I don't recall seeing it
this time around though.
512
:Yeah.
513
:So mark 1528, it goes from
mark:
514
:And so if, if you were looking
for mark 15, 28, you're not going
515
:to find it there, but you'll find
that little footnote in your ESV.
516
:Number five, it says there on mine,
it says some manuscripts insert verse
517
:28 and the scripture was fulfilled.
518
:That says he was number
with the transgressors.
519
:Basically what's going on here is.
520
:Uh, the, the manuscript evidence is
heavier towards suggesting this was a
521
:later scribal edition because, because
of the mention right there in verse 27,
522
:they crucified two robbers with him.
523
:And so the scribe was thinking, this
reminds me of Isaiah 53, which says that
524
:he was numbered with the transgressors,
but the earlier manuscript evidence that
525
:we have both Alexandra and Anne Western.
526
:Um, they do not possess that, that,
uh, verse in the original text.
527
:And so it's, it seems to be that this
is something that ascribe added later
528
:on in a way to help explain the,
the reason why that the crucifixion
529
:between the robbers was significant.
530
:It's a good text.
531
:Yeah.
532
:Uh, the mocking takes
place versus 29, 30 32.
533
:Again, you've got Jesus dying
verses 33 through 44 41.
534
:And then you've got his burial in mark.
535
:Uh, 1542 through 47
and one note mark:
536
:Pilot is surprised to hear
how quickly Jesus died.
537
:So there's a lot of questions surrounding,
um, the timeframe of all of these events.
538
:When did this take place?
539
:How long was Jesus on the cross?
540
:When did the crucifixion happen?
541
:This is evidence for us that, that this
was not a prolonged multi-day event.
542
:That, that pilot is surprised that
he is dead already, basically.
543
:Um, and we even see that when the
soldier is going to break his legs
544
:in, I think John's account and
they're surprised to come to him and
545
:find that he's, he's already done.
546
:Um, so this was great.
547
:This was not something that was, I mean,
it was quick from, from generally how long
548
:it took a crucified victim to, to die.
549
:But, uh, But he satisfied
God's right there.
550
:And six hours on the cross.
551
:Um, which is astounding.
552
:And then you've got Mary
and Mary there in mark 15.
553
:Watching to see the
place where he's buried.
554
:So one quick note before, before I
forget, because I was looking up the
555
:verse while you were talking here.
556
:Uh, so, so that number being
numbered among the transgressors.
557
:Uh, is found and Luke.
558
:It's Luke 2237.
559
:Yeah.
560
:So Luke records that same verse.
561
:Um, Which is still it doesn't
resolve it for us because we
562
:believe, I believe in Luke and mark
and priority, meaning mark was the
563
:first one to be written very likely.
564
:Right.
565
:And that Luke and Matthew borrowed from
mark as they compiled their resources.
566
:So.
567
:Luke has it.
568
:So it was clearly around itself.
569
:Someone was saying it.
570
:Even if it wasn't originally in and mark.
571
:Is there any footnotes on that with Luke?
572
:Is there anything saying that
contested verse or anything?
573
:Uh, Nope.
574
:Interesting.
575
:Nope.
576
:It's it's there.
577
:Okay, Luke 2237.
578
:Good catch.
579
:Yeah, it's and this is what we're
dealing with with textual criticism.
580
:This is a great example.
581
:Eh, this is not something that says, and
by the way, Jesus said, he's not gone.
582
:Right.
583
:It's something like this.
584
:It's something going.
585
:Okay.
586
:Can we see the connection there?
587
:W.
588
:Certainly we can see the connection
there back to Isaiah 53, right.
589
:And Luke makes the connection.
590
:And so it's, it's possible
that maybe that's even why the
591
:scribe added it here in mark 15.
592
:Maybe.
593
:Luke had recorded this already and
the scribe put it in there even
594
:with a market priority who knows.
595
:Um, we're not sure how it works.
596
:Yeah.
597
:We're not quite sure how it works.
598
:We don't know which one
actually came first.
599
:And how that all kit got compiled.
600
:So that much, we can't say yeah.
601
:So there you go.
602
:Um, let's pray.
603
:And then we'll be done with this episode.
604
:God, we thank you for the reality of the
cross and the crucifixion and that Jesus
605
:didn't save himself by getting down from
the cross, because then we would be lost.
606
:Um, we're grateful for
the death of our savior.
607
:Something that that is, is beyond our
ability to, to comprehend, um, in his full
608
:humanity, we understand his death and yet
he was all at the same time, fully God.
609
:And how that works for us is something
that is the mystery of the gospel.
610
:And yet it's, it's so important that we
maintain both of those things because
611
:without his full deity, we don't have.
612
:A qualified substitute one that
is able to satisfy the full wrath
613
:of God without his full humanity.
614
:We don't have a qualified representative.
615
:Uh, one that could represent us as
one of us and in going to the cross.
616
:And so those two things are so necessary.
617
:And yet so much greater than
our minds can comprehend.
618
:And so we thank you for the reality.
619
:And we pray that we would reflect
much on things like this and, and, and
620
:stretch our minds by thinking deeply.
621
:And if nothing else coming back to
being overwhelmingly grateful for
622
:the sacrifice of Christ for us.
623
:And so we pray that that would be the end.
624
:Of of are the result of our
time in studying this passage.
625
:We pray in Jesus name.
626
:Amen.
627
:Amen.
628
:Hi, can you bring your Bibles
and tune in again tomorrow for
629
:another episode of the daily Bible
podcast, we'll see you then folks.
630
:Bye.
