Episode 144 (Numbers 18:1-19:22) Dec 13, 2018

Show notes

Chad and Daniel discuss why God commands a certain sacrifice involving an unblemished red heifer. Why does the color matter? Why do the ashes matter? What does all of this have to do with sin and death? How does the new testament connect all this to Jesus and a sacramental application of His work? Have a listen!

Episode 143 (Numbers 16:36-17:9) Dec 06, 2018

Show notes

The people are now angry with Moses and Aaron and come up with a very old Adam reason that everything is Moses' fault. Moses prays but God has had enough and strikes the people with a plague. Aaron runs down into the middle of death to stand between the wrath of God and the people. And a strange test involving staffs is done resulting in something that the church has connected to the nativity. Chad and Daniel talk about all of this.

Episode 142 (Numbers 16:1-35) Nov 29, 2018

A rebellion is organized against Moses. His response is both sorrow and anger. We see the difference between power and authority. Somebody has gone too far and God is going to decide who it is. The rebels won't go to Moses and make insane statements about the goodness of Egypt. A contest is entered and the earth swallows some sinners. Chad and Daniel talk about all of this. Have a listen!

Episode 141 (Numbers 15:22-41) Nov 22, 2018

Show notes

God wants everyone to experience forgiveness and sets up ways for the non-Jews to come in. Where are examples of this happening elsewhere in the Bible? There is a certain kind of sin that stands above others. Is it sinning intentionally or is it something else? The Law doesn't budge on sin as a man is stoned for breaking the Sabbath. Tassels are sown on the edges of everyone's garments and there is quite a bit going on there. Chad and Daniel discuss all of this. Have a listen!

Episode 140 (Numbers 14:20-15:21) Nov 16, 2018

Show notes

God forgives Israel but there are pretty heavy consequences for their rebellion. In what way is Numbers 14 a better example of the sinfulness of man than Genesis 3? What does God mean that He has been tested 10 times? God says Caleb and Joshua are the only adults that will enter the promised land. Some of the men try to redeem themselves and it doesn't go well. But God still makes promises to their children. Chad and Daniel discuss all of this. Have a listen!
