Readings: Isaiah 35, Psalm 146, James 5, Matthew 11:2-11. *Full, free access at https://pewpewhq.com/formation/a3-a. John the Baptist's doubt from prison reveals a fundamental debate about confronting systemic oppression. John sees Rome as the primary enemy requiring direct anti-imperial resistance, while Jesus targets something deeper—the ideology of entitlement that creates in-group/out-group categories. Jesus refuses to alienate those trapped in corrupt systems (like military families) even while condemning the systems themselves, modeling a "sharper razor" that separates the bathwater of oppression from the baby of human dignity.

Readings: Isaiah 11;Psalm 72; Romans 15; Matthew 3. *Full, free access at https://pewpewhq.com/formation/a2-a. Central Thesis/Theme: The Divine Warrior motif reveals God's power as fundamentally creative rather than combative. Where Babylonian cosmology imagines creation emerging from divine conflict, the Hebrew imagination presents a God who speaks reality into existence—conquering not through violence but through divine intent and breath. This contrast between conflict-based and creativity-based cosmologies defines the difference between worldly power systems and the kingdom that emerges through ordinary humanity.

Readings: Isaiah 2:1-5; Psalm 122; Romans 13:11-14; Matthew 24:36-44 The Advent season inaugurates a new way of seeing humanity itself—the "son of man" as both ordinary human and harbinger of radical transformation. This first Sunday reintroduces the lectionary cycle not as institutional prescription but as framework for discovering what Scripture says when freed from calcified interpretation and enforcement of meaning.

Readings: Isaiah 12; Psalm 98; 2 Thessalonians 3:6-13; Luke 21:5-19. Central Theme: Jesus's prophecy against Herod's ornate temple reflects a consistent biblical pattern of God rejecting centralized religious power and wealth accumulation in favor of decentralized, agrarian faithfulness. Key Insights: Luke writes post-70 CE with knowledge of the temple's destruction, but this doesn't negate Jesus's prophetic vision The name "Jesus" (Yeshua = "salvation") connects Christ to Joshua the builder of the plain-Jane Second Temple Septuagint (LXX) Exodus 15:3 reads "The Lord brings wars to nothing" vs. Masoretic "The Lord is a warrior" - a crucial difference for understanding God's relationship to violence Hebrew root LHM carries both "laham" (fighter) and "elohim" (gods), pointing toward a God who undoes physical violence through spiritual battle. Theological Argument: Salvation is cooperative work between humans and God, not passive reception of predetermined grace. The biblical witness consistently undermines those who claim entitlement without labor (Pharaoh, Herod, Solomon) and instead elevates agrarian mutuality and decentralized interpretation. Contemporary Challenge: We must "federate our faith" and resist religious institutions that enforce monopolies on meaning. The oldest manuscripts we possess are Hellenized texts that already represent a tension between imperial power and prophetic decentralization - we should embrace this pluralism rather than seek singular authority.
