Today, Paul begins to speak of the nature of the body of Christ and the diversity of spiritual gifts within it. Just as a physical body is made of many parts that are united together, Paul teaches that the church should be united in love and put away childish divisions, otherwise their flashy spiritual gifts are absolute rubbish. He goes on to encourage the church to desire the gifts that build up the body over-and-above the gift of speaking in tongues. Before concluding with instructions for the church, Paul argues with those who say there is no resurrection, contending that without resurrection our faith in Christ is utter foolishness.1 Corinthians 12 - 1:17 . 1 Corinthians 13 - 5:48 . 1 Corinthians 14 - 9:05 . 1 Corinthians 15 - 15:30 . 1 Corinthians 16 - 25:02 .

Well, if you didn't learn it from our time in Songs of Songs, let's just be clear: God is pro-marriage and pro-sex. He created intimacy for the good of mankind so that a husband and wife might enjoy one another to the glory of God. The blessing of marital intimacy should be protected from the many ways that mankind distorts it for selfish gratification. The Corinthian church was recovering from a twisted, worldly sexual ethic, and Paul wants them to know how they might use their freedom in Christ rightly, whether married or unmarried. Paul continues this train of thought about freedom to talk about how one should use their Christian freedom and knowledge for the benefit of others, and not for themselves.1 Corinthians 7 - 1:12 . 1 Corinthians 8 - 9:00 . 1 Corinthians 9 - 11:21 . 1 Corinthians 10 - 17:20 . 1 Corinthians 11 - 22:21 .

Paul wants the Corinthian church to live under the lordship of Jesus Christ. Divisions had already begun among the church at Corinth, and as we'll see in these first few chapters, some of the division came because believers began attributing themselves to mere men. Paul directs them to boast, not in the teachers they follow, but in Christ and Him crucified. In other words, “let one who boasts, boast in the Lord.” The cross is foolishness to the world, but to those who are being saved, it is the power of Almighty God. The apostles weren't to be placed on pedestals, but they were to be looked to as examples of humility.1 Corinthians 1 - 1:07 . 1 Corinthians 2 - 6:19 . 1 Corinthians 3 - 9:52 . 1 Corinthians 4 - 13:31 . 1 Corinthians 5 - 18:24 . 1 Corinthians 6 - 20:56 .

Israel has taken the lavish blessings of their God and given those gifts to the calf idols of Baal, turning away from the covenant love of the God who redeemed them and turning to love other gods. Therefore, the Lord will discipline his people for their rebellion. Through Hosea, God remarks that he raised Israel like a father raises children, lamenting the calamity that will come upon them, promising that He will not release His full wrath upon them. The book of Hosea ends with a call to repentance. If God's people will turn back to Him, they will flourish once again.Hosea 8 - 1:11 . Hosea 9 - 3:53 . Hosea 10 - 8:36 . Hosea 11 - 12:06 .

When Hurricane Katrina rolled through, the spinning white satellite image on TV screens actually looked evil. For residents of New Orleans, waiting for that hurricane that's exactly what it felt like. Thousands of people were affected by the brutal storm that poured in from the Gulf. In many ways, the city still hasn't recovered. But in the chaos, God was there.For more than 20 years, water pump operator Rufus Burkhalter and Bobby Brown had worked at pumping station number 6 along the 17th Street Canal. When they realized how bad it was going to be, the pair did an amazing thing. They stayed at their posts. They kept working even after the levees broke. One of the world's largest pumping stations was still being operated by two good men who risked their lives for others. When it was all said and done, both lost their homes due to storm damage. The seawater and raging winds devastated their lives, and yet they chose to help others. That kind of love for one's fellow man is rooted in the love of Christ.Psalm 93:4 says, “Mightier than the thunder of the great waters, mightier than the breakers of the sea. The Lord on high is mighty.”God is infinitely stronger than the storms in your life. He's there guiding you, and he is there caring for you through it all, all the time. In the horrifying days of Katrina and through the aftermath, many people displayed a reliance on the Lord who stood up to the evil that invaded their community. When we lean on God in every situation, especially during the storms in our lives, it builds our faith and places us on solid ground.Let's pray.Father, Almighty One, nothing is scarier than the dark, deep waters that overwhelm us sometimes. We know though, that your word is our anchor established and true. We can rely on it every single time. Thank you for guiding, protecting, and loving us always, in all of your ways, in Jesus' name, amen. Change your shirt, and you can change the world!

Not much is known about the prophet Hosea, save what is mentioned in this record of his prophecies. By referencing the Kings under which he prophesied, we can see that his ministry lasted around 40 years. Like Amos, Hosea spoke to the nation of Israel, often referenced as “Ephraim” in this book, under a time of lavish wealth and disparate poverty. Israel was being unfaithful to their God, and like the unfaithful nation the Lord has committed himself to love, Hosea is commanded to marry an unfaithful woman. Hosea's pursuit of his unfaithful wife serves as a parallel to God's pursuit of unfaithful Israel. :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by Bobby Brown, Katelyn Pridgen, Eric Williamson & the Christian Standard Biblefacebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org
As the book of 1 Chronicles comes to a close we're given a look at an assembly of all the leaders of Israel. In this gather, David gives glory to God for his many blessings, and charges Solomon to build the Lord's temple. In so doing, he also makes it clear that, of his many sons, Solomon is to become king, appointed by the Lord God Himself. He passes the plans for the temple on to Solomon and declares that he will be giving his riches to the work of building this place of worship. The leaders and the people of Israel follow suit, and together they amass a great stockpile of wealth. David has dedicated his all to the temple.1 Chronicles 27 - 1:12 . 1 Chronicles 28 - 7:15 . 1 Chronicles 29 - 12:35 .

In his latter days, David charges his son Solomon to build the temple for the worship of God, and we get a few new details. First, we learn that the Lord did not allow David to build the temple because his hands had shed so much blood and because he had waged great wars. We also realize that David looked forward to the building of the temple even though he himself couldn't build it, charging his son with the task and spending his own time and resources to create a stockpile for the project. David also assigns duties and tasks for the Levite priests before he dies, paving the way for transition from the tabernacle to the temple once Solomon becomes king.1 Chronicles 20 - 1:13 . 1 Chronicles 21 - 2:59 . 1 Chronicles 22 - 9:12 . 1 Chronicles 23 - 14:08 .

Fáilte ar ais chuig eagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo ar an 18ú lá de mí Iúil, liomsa Lauren Ní Loingsigh. I 1970 tháinig sé amach go mbeadh an phraghas de bheoir agus biotáille chun dul suas. I 1991 fuair duine 380 míle punt de bharr gur chúisigh duine iad go raibh siad ag gadaíocht siopa. I 2001 bhí daoine I nDurlas ag iarradh milliúin punt a bhailiú don Cathedral of the Assumption. An plean a bhí ann ná chun a lán slí a chuir amach ionas go mbeadh daoine ábalta airgead a thabhairt ó dhochar díreach agus geall. I 2009 bhí Ros Cré an áit chun a bheith don deireadh seachtain de bharr go raibh sé lán de cheoil agus siamsaíocht ar na sráid agus sna teach tábhairne. Bhí an bhaile mar óstach don tríú huair do Fleadh na Mumhan agus bhí sé ócáid mhór sa chontae. Sin Bryan Adams le Everything I Do I Do It For You – an t-amhrán is mó ar an lá seo I 1991. Ag lean ar aghaidh le nuacht cheoil ar an lá seo I 1992 phós Bobby Brown agus Whitney Houston ina eastát I New Jersey. Chaith sí gúna leis an chostas 40 míle dollar. Bhí daoine ann cosúil le Stevie Wonder, Gloria Estefan, Natalie Cole, Patti LaBelle agus Freddie Jackson. Rinne sí iarratas ar cholscaradh I 2006. I 2001 tháinig an bhanna cheoil Kiss amach le táirge eile darbh ainm Kiss Kasket. Bhí sé cónra le haghaidh de na baill den bhanna ceoil air, bhí an lógó Kiss air agus na bhfocail Kiss Forever air. Fuair giotáraí Dimebag Darrell ón bhanna ceoil Pantera bás I 2004 agus fuair sé ceann agus cuireadh é faoi thalamh. Agus ar deireadh breithlá daoine cáiliúla ar an lá seo rugadh Nelson Mandela san Afraic Theas I 1918 agus rugadh aisteoir Kristen Bell I Meiriceá ar an lá seo I 1980 agus seo chuid de na rudaí a rinne sí. Beidh mé ar ais libh an tseachtain seo chugainn le heagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo. Welcome back to another edition of Ar An Lá Seo on the 18th of July, with me Lauren Ní Loingsigh 1970: the price of beer and spirits were to be increased sharply. 1991: there was a £380,000 award for shoplifting slur which shocked stores. 2001 - An ambitious £1 million fundraising plan for the restoration of the Cathedral of the Assumption in Thurles. The plan, which seeks extensive support from the general public, offers a number of alternatives to people wishing to contribute to the fund, ranging from direct debits to direct donations and pledges. 2009 - Roscrea was the place to be for the weekend with music and entertainment lining the streets and pubs. For the third time in its history, the town would host the Munster Fleadh, one of the most prestigious events on the Irish cultural calendar. That was Bryan Adams with (Everything I Do) I Do It For You – the biggest song on this day in 1991 Onto music news on this day In 1992 Bobby Brown married Whitney Houston at her New Jersey estate who was dressed in a $40,000 Marc Bouwer wedding gown.

I'll be back with you next week with another edition of Ar An Lá Seo.
After staying in the house of Obed-Edom for a while, the ark of the covenant finally comes to Jerusalem with great fanfare. After King David reestablishes the tabernacle, he returns to his own home, a palace made of cedar, and thinks “Why does God dwell in a tent, while I, a mere man, dwell in a palace?” As his wheels begin to spin, he tells Nathan the prophet. Nathan tells David to go for it, but later receives a vision from the Lord. The Lord has never asked a house, but God flips the script and says, “You know what? I'm going to build a house from your family tree. A Son of David will build a house for me that will last forever. 1 Chronicles 15 - 1:14 . 1 Chronicles 16 - 6:02 . 1 Chronicles 17 - 12:38 . 1 Chronicles 18 - 19:07 . 1 Chronicles 19 - 21:46 .

There's a lot more historical narrative in today's reading, especially when compared to our first three episodes in 1 Chronicles. David becomes king, he intends to reinstitute the proper worship of God at his tabernacle. When the ark of the covenant almost falls in transit, one man reaches out to grab it, which is not permissible by God's law. The Lord strikes him dead, which both angers and terrifies David. Scared to bring it to Jerusalem, he leaves it in Gath, bringing it to Jerusalem at a later date. We'll also hear a few tales of brave men in battle and their legendary accounts of heroism and valor. These men fought alongside David and were there to help him claim kingship over Israel as the Lord had ordained.1 Chronicles 11 - 1:11 . 1 Chronicles 12 - 8:51 . 1 Chronicles 13 - 16:11 . 1 Chronicles 14 - 18:32 .

We're still working through a list of names, but thankfully things get a little more interesting this week as the lists are broken up by historical accounts and records of what people did and when. As someone who once worked retail and food service, I like the behind-the-scenes look at how the Levites and gatekeepers conducted the daily maintenance of the temple found in today's reading. Later we'll begin The Song of Songs which is about two lovers and their love. It is a book of poetry, symbolism, and innuendo; if you hear something and think, “Does that mean what I think it means?” the answer is probably, “Yup!” 1 Chronicles 8 - 1:10 . 1 Chronicles 9 - 5:07 . 1 Chronicles 10 - 12:27 .

We're reading through the genealogies handed down over the centuries that trace God's people from Adam & Eve all the way through the exile to Babylon. Remember that each name represents a lifetime and a family: real people with real lives who either trusted in the Lord or who were stiff-necked and rebelled against the Lord. Reading these genealogies juxtaposed against chapters from Ecclesiastes reminds me that one day you and I may just be names on a list to those who come after us, but what the Lord accomplishes in us and through will not be forgotten by the One who formed us, redeemed us, and called us His own. How sweet it is to know that the Lord remembers His people by name.1 Chronicles 5 - 1:06 . 1 Chronicles 6 - 5:34 . 1 Chronicles 7 - 15:11 . Ecclesiastes 11 - 21:29 .

Alright, real talk: this episode probably isn't going to change your life, but there are some interesting little nuggets to be found in between the names and genealogies. For instance, there's, “The Prayer of Jabez,” right? which, if you didn't live through 90's Christendom, is the title of a book that says you can be blessed with prosperity if you pray prayers like Jabez. Although the author probably lined his pockets with that book, the section on Jabez simply describes something that happened; it isn't prescribed for all believers. You might as well say, “Pray Solomon's prayer and you'll be blessed with wisdom, a kingdom, and a temple!” It doesn't quite work like that. Alright, let's read some names, shall we?1 Chronicles 1 - 1:07 . 1 Chronicles 2 - 7:12 . 1 Chronicles 3 - 13:26 . 1 Chronicles 4 - 17:00 .

Among the many things that Luke illustrates in his record of Jesus' death, burial, and resurrection, is that all of it was in fulfillment of Scripture, including a number of references to Psalm 22. While sinful men sought to snuff out this king and his message about a coming kingdom, they in fact helped usher in the new kingdom by crucifying the Son of God. Then, on the third day, Jesus rose from the dead as He had prophesied way back in Galilee. The disciples' eyes were opened to many things they had not previously understood, and the kingdom of heaven begins to spread in the hearts and minds of Christ's disciples.Luke 22 - 1:13 .

Looking back from our position in history, we have the advantage of considering the kingdom of God through all of the teachings of Jesus and through the lens of Scripture as a whole. During his time of ministry on earth, however, things weren't so clear for His original audience. When the crowds thought about the Son of David, they assumed that he would be a king in the traditional sense. The Jews were excited that this king had finally arrived, and upon entering Jerusalem they erupted with praise & excitement. Little did they know that Christ's kingship would establish eternal authority over the souls of men or that victory would come by way of the cross.Luke 19 - 1:08 . Luke 20 - 9:16 . Luke 21 - 17:00 .

Let's talk about two of today's parables that are different from the others, because in them Jesus points to sinful men as examples of that which is good, which is confusing on the face of it, but let me explain. In the parable of the dishonest manager, his goal is to show his people how to think about wealth and earthly possessions: we are to use them to win favor with others while we still have them. In the parable of the persistent widow, God the Father is compared to an unjust judge. The goal, however, is to argue from the lesser to the greater. If an unjust judge will give justice through persistence, how much more so will the righteous judge grant justice to those who earnestly pray?Luke 16 - 1:08 . Luke 17 - 7:20 . Luke 18 - 13:42 . Ecclesiastes 8 - 21:10 . :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by Bobby Brown, Katelyn Pridgen, Eric Williamson & the Christian Standard Biblefacebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org
Our passage today includes a number of notable parables, some of which concern the nature of death and the afterlife. Jesus tells His disciples to enter by the narrow way, because the door to God's household will soon be shut and those outside will be turned away regardless of their proximity to Jesus. He compares God's table to that of a nobleman who hosts a banquet, only to be turned down by those he had invited. He therefore invites the weak, the poor, the blind, the lame, and those who are far off. Later, Jesus describes the joy in heaven over the lost who have been found, and tells the well-known parable of the prodigal son.Luke 13 - 1:12 . Luke 14 - 8:18 . Luke 15 - 15:16 . Ecclesiastes 7 - 20:57 . :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by Bobby Brown, Katelyn Pridgen, Eric Williamson & the Christian Standard Biblefacebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org
We are almost halfway through the book of Luke, and Jesus and His disciples are on their way to Jerusalem and to the crucifixion of Jesus. On the way he teaches His disciples how to pray to God the Father, rebukes those who claim He uses demonic powers, chastises the generation who will put him to death, and denounces the self-righteous Pharisees as hypocrites. Finally, Jesus encourages his disciples to store up treasures in heaven, and to stop worrying about the future. Worrying doesn't add years to your life, so why not choose a better way: spend your life investing the kingdom, rather than yourself.Luke 11 - 1:11 . Luke 12 - 11:36 . Ecclesiastes 6 - 22:14 . :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by Bobby Brown, Katelyn Pridgen, Eric Williamson & the Christian Standard Biblefacebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org
Today's chapters focus more on the relationship Jesus has with his apostles and his disciples, as he empowers them for ministry, provides for them, calls them to wholehearted devotion, and warns them of his future death. Jesus and His disciples begin making their way to Jerusalem where He will face the agony of the cross, but He has much to say and to teach before that hour arrives. On the road to Jerusalem, when asked to define what it means to love your neighbor, Jesus tells a parable that would have shocked his audience, as he makes a detestable Samaritan the hero of the story rather than an upright, religious Jew.

Jesus continues to exhibit his power over illness, demons, death, and over Creation. Those witness his power, including the disciples who are with him daily, continue to be awestruck by what they see. Make no mistake: the people in Jesus' day were not simpletons who would simply believe anything. Like you and I, they knew that what Jesus was doing seemed impossible, and they all had trouble wrapping their minds around it. Later in Ecclesiastes King Solomon envies the dead, who no longer have to bear the burdens of oppression, loneliness and evil at the hands wicked men. Without the Lord, these things seem to serve no purpose.Luke 7 - 1:11 . Luke 8 - 10:35 .

As the crowds begin to gather in greater number, Jesus gets in a boat, pushes out a little, and preaches; this would have helped to amplify his voice and give him a little space from the those who were pushing in on him. As he performs miraculous signs that display his power over creation, dedicated disciples begin to grow in number. He then appoints 12 men to be his apostles. These men would have had unique access to Jesus and responsibilities beyond those given to others who had been gathering as disciples. As disciples accumulate, so do those who are opposed to his teaching, and their rage begins to fester. Luke 5 - 1:08 . Luke 6 - 8:03 .

After being baptized by John, who is the prophet who prepares the way for the Lord in the wilderness, Jesus enters the wilderness where he fasts for 40 days. At the end of the 40 days, Jesus is hungry, as you might expect, and it is then that the devil comes to tempt Jesus. These forty days and these temptations are a parallel to Israel's 40 years in the wilderness. However, where Israel fails, Jesus succeeds, resisting those temptations to rebel against God the Father in order to honor and glorify himself. Later, Jesus returns to his hometown where he begins to teach in the synagogues, and while they are amazed at his teaching, they are infuriated at the suggestion that God might work wonders for foreigners instead of for them.Luke 3 - 1:08 .

The gospel according to Luke is the longest book in the New Testament, and according to his own prelude, it's an orderly collection of eye-witness accounts from the life and ministry of Jesus. He begins by recounting the events surrounding the birth of John the Baptist who would prepare the way for the coming Son of David. While John's conception and birth are miraculous and recall the promises made to Abraham and Sarah, the birth of Jesus is greater still. His humble birth is cause for celebration and continued awe & wonder. Later, we'll begin the book Ecclesiastes, a meditation on the futility of seeking fulfillment in life apart from God.Luke 1 - 1:12 . Luke 2 - 12:58 .

Amos was a prophet from Judah who travelled away from his homeland to prophesy against Israel. As his introduction states, Amos was a shepherd by trade, but he received instruction from the Lord to go north to Samaria around 760 BC. It was a time of great prosperity for Israel, but many farmers had been reduced to poverty. The wealthy gave them loans that they could not repay, forcing these debtors into slavery whereby the aristocrats seized their lands. They felt that their city walls and citadels would keep them safe and secure from danger, but the God of Israel sees all and will exact justice on those who have neglected his statutes.Amos 1 - 1:04 .

Our episode picks up where we last left King Josiah, who has just discovered the book of the law and the covenant. After consulting a prophetess named Huldah, they learn that the wrath of God is coming upon Judah soon. When Josiah realizes that their days are numbered, he cleans house both figuratively and literally. The Lord's temple was full of idolatrous objects and practices, and he gets rid of them all. While the Lord honors and acknowledges Josiah's zeal and humility, it will not stop God from sending Judah into exile in Babylon.2 Kings 23 - 1:12 . 2 Kings 24 - 11:47 . 2 Kings 25 - 16:13 .

Thus far in his reign as king, Hezekiah has put his trust in the Lord. After Isaiah prophesies that his illness will end in death, Hezekiah prays to the Lord and the Lord hears, granting him another 15 years of life. It's not long, however, before Hezekiah gets cocky and shows off his sweet digs to his neighbors, the Babylonians. Of course, we know that won't end well. A couple generations later, King Josiah takes throne at the age of eight, and almost by happenstance, the king's servant stumbles across the book of the Law which had become so forgotten and neglected that they weren't quite sure what they were looking at.2 Kings 20 - 1:15 . 2 Kings 21 - 5:55 . 2 Kings 22 - 11:54 .

Today, the kingdom of Israel falls with finality as for the longest time they have denied the ways of the Lord that would make them distinct from the surrounding nations. After spiraling madly away from the Lord for decades, the Lord allows the king of Assyria to conquer Israel and deport it's people to foreign lands. In his quest to conquer nation after nation, Sennacherib sets his sights on Judah, and sends messengers to demand submission and to arrogantly proclaim Judah's impending doom. King Hezekiah turns to the Lord in his time of trouble, and speaks through the prophet Isaiah to bring good news to the king.2 Kings 17 – 1:08 . 2 Kings 18 – 10:12 . 2 Kings 19 – 19:32 . :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by Bobby Brown, Katelyn Pridgen, Eric Williamson & the Christian Standard Biblefacebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org
The kings of Israel have fallen so far from the way of life that the Lord had called them to follow, that by this point they are completely unrecognizable from the nations around them. As we read, notice that as the kings move further away from the Lord and his statutes, the more violent, unpredictable, and selfish they become. While Judah's kings continuously neglect the high places of idol worship, most of them still continue to serve God themselves. And if you're curious about anything else these kings did, good luck finding the Historical Record of Israel's and Judah's Kings.2 Kings 14 - 1:11 . 2 Kings 15 - 7:54 . 2 Kings 16 - 16:11 .

Today, we'll hear the account of King Joash, the infant heir to the throne who was rescued from a royal slaughter and raised in the temple of God. With guidance from Jehoiada the priest, Joash is inaugurated as a child king over Judah, and he begins the work of repairing the temple. Hazael has become the king of Aram just as Elisha had prophesied, and the army of Jehoahaz, king of Israel is almost completely wiped out. Jehoahaz's son Jehoash visits Elisha before he dies of illness, where Elisha has a final prophecy for Israel's king.2 Kings 11 - 1:12 . 2 Kings 12 - 5:51 . 2 Kings 13 - 11:07 .

In today's episode, Elisha acts through messengers and servants to accomplish kingdom-altering acts. First, the king of Aram sends his servant Hazael to ask Elisha if the king will recover from his sickness. While speaking with him about the matter, Elisha sees Hazael's future, which one of terrible power and destruction. Later, Elisha sends a young prophet to anoint Jehu, an army commander, to be king over Israel. With a number of cunning strategies, Jehu overthrows the house of Ahab, kills Jezebel, the prophets of a Baal, and avenges the blood of Naboth the Gileadite on behalf of the Lord, who predicted Ahab's fall through Elijah.2 Kings 8 - 1:11 . 2 Kings 9 - 8:32 . 2 Kings 10 - 18:28 .

On today's episode, an Aramean army commander comes to Elisha to be healed, but when Elisha doesn't give him the respect he thinks he deserves, he almost rejects the offer out of hand. Later, the Arameans try to capture Elisha but he diffuses them with hospitality. Not long after, the Arameans lay siege to Israel, surrounding Samaria in order to cause a famine, and the people take desperate measures. The king of Israel becomes enraged and sends for Elisha that he might kill him. When the messenger arrives, Elisha declares that a miraculous turn of events is just a day away.2 Kings 5 - 1:22 . 2 Kings 6 - 9:12 . 2 Kings 7 - 17:03 .

We continue in our timeline of the kings of Israel and the kings of Judah today. Remember that King Ahab has died, but at this point Elijah is still alive. Ahab's son Ahaziah is now on the throne, but he won't outlive the Lord's prophecy against Ahab which says that his family line would come to an end in the next generation. King Jehoshaphat continues to reign in Judah and partner with the kings of Israel, pointing each king to consult the Lord through his prophets. And speaking of the prophets, in today's episode Elijah passes his mantle to Elisha who receives a double portion of Elijah's spirit.2 Kings 1 - 1:13 . 2 Kings 2 - 5:45 . 2 Kings 3 - 12:21 . 2 Kings 4 - 18:26 .

Today we'll read the account of Jonah, the reluctant prophet. The Lord commands Jonah to go to Ninevah and warn them of their impending destruction. Jonah turns to go in the completely opposite direction, later saying that he didn't want to go because he knew the Lord would have compassion on those whom Israel saw as detestable adversaries. As you hear this account, keep in mind that in the end it is most likely that Jonah is the one recording what happened, revealing that he was eventually aware of his sinful heart toward those living in ignorance of the Lord's ways.Jonah - 1:11 .

In our last episode, Ahab struck a deal with Ben-Hadad, the king of Aram instead of destroying him, but because the Lord had set him apart for destruction, an unnamed prophet pronounces judgment on Ahab. Some time passes, and Ahab sets his sights on a field that belongs to another man. After he refuses to sell it, Ahab pouts in his room until Jezebel hatches a scheme to murder him and take his land. Elijah appears to prophecy his demise, and remarkably, Ahab responds with humility. Later, the prophet Micaiah shares a vision of the Lord's throne room where God permits a lying spirit to bring about Ahab's demise. 1 Kings 21 – 1:07 . 1 Kings 22 – 7:42 .

After experiencing the power and authority of the God of Israel on top of Mount Carmel, where fire fell from heaven to consume Elijah's sacrifice, the prophet runs to Jezreel ahead of King Ahab. Upon hearing Jezebel's threats to execute him, Elijah then flees in despair to a distant mountaintop. Later, King Ahab of Israel goes to battle with Ben-Hadad of Aram. The Lord sends an unnamed prophet to alert Ahab that the Lord will win the battle for Israel so that Ahab will know that He alone is God over the whole earth. Then, when Ahab disobeys the Lord's command and spares Ben-Hadad instead of destroying him, the Lord sends another unnamed prophet to pronounce judgment.1 Kings 19 – 1:09 . 1 Kings 20 – 6:35 .

The string of men who reign as king over the ten tribes of Israel continue to get worse and worse, each king being more corrupt than the last. King Ahab should be worshipping the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the God who brought Israel out of Egypt, but instead he marries a Baal worshiper, turns to serve Ball himself, then builds a temple to Baal in Samaria. Elijah boldly confronts the king in the name of the Lord of Armies. God works wonders through Elijah, and by God's strength, Elijah performs miraculous signs. 1 Kings 16 - 1:09 . 1 Kings 17 - 8:14 . 1 Kings 18 - 12:43 . Psalm 92 - 23:49 .

Now that King Solomon has died, the prophecies of God spoken through his prophet Ahijah have come to fruition. In our last episode, Ahijah tore a new robe into 12 pieces and gave 10 pieces to Jeroboam, symbolizing the number of tribes he would rule over. Remember that Solomon's son Rehoboam insults Jeroboam, who formerly worked under Solomon as a supervisor over forced labor. After Jeroboam led a revolt, he became king over those 10 tribes. Despite the Lord's kindness to Jeroboam, he also turned away from God and immediately set up two sanctuaries, each with a golden calf. Today, God's wrath and impending destruction are announced by an unnamed prophet.1 Kings 13 – 1:09 . 1 Kings 14 – 9:06 . 1 Kings 15 – 16:06 .

Even though Solomon's life is marked by the goodness and grace of God, even though Solomon has built the Lord's temple in Jerusalem, and even though Solomon's wisdom is unsurpassed, his devotion to the Lord and to his statutes wanes in his latter years. Why? Because in his power and in his lavish wealth, he has accumulated hundreds of wives for himself. In marrying wives from surrounding nations, he has disobeyed the direct command of the Lord and fallen into idolatry. As such is the case, the Lord vows to take the kingdom away from Solomon's family after he is gone. Sadly, the wisdom that Solomon had passed on to his sons doesn't take root, as the foolishness of his son Rehoboam causes a revolt and a division in the nation of Israel.1 Kings 10 - 1:10 . 1 Kings 11 - 7:31 . 1 Kings 12 - 17:08 .

Today's reading contains the second-longest chapter in all of Scripture, which is 1 Kings chapter 8, and it's long for a great reason: King Solomon gets excited and is full of prayer and praise as he conducts the first worship gathering at the Lord's temple. Though the tabernacle existed before the temple, this is the first permanent structure built for the worship of God in a particular geographic location. As you can imagine, it's a pretty big deal. The party lasts for two full weeks, after which the Lord appears to Solomon a second time echoing both the blessings and curses he gave to Moses before him.1 Kings 7 - 1:05 . 1 Kings 8 - 10:13 . 1 Kings 9 - 24:08 . :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by Bobby Brown, Katelyn Pridgen, Eric Williamson & the Christian Standard Biblefacebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org
