May 11, 2026Today's Reading: Numbers 21:4-9Daily Lectionary: Numbers 8:5-26; Luke 15:11-32“And the Lord said to Moses, ‘Make a fiery serpent and set it on a pole, and everyone who is bitten, when he sees it, shall live.' So Moses made a bronze serpent and set it on a pole. And if a serpent bit anyone, he would look at the bronze serpent and live.” (Numbers 21:8-9)In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.Snakes usually have a bad reputation. And for good reason. The Slytherin house in Harry Potter is famous for dark wizards. Medusa, with her serpentine hairstyle and stone-cold stare, isn't exactly the woman that little girls long to be when they grow up. It's no different in the true story of the Scriptures. There's the serpent, the ancient dragon, Satan, back in Genesis, who tempted Adam and Eve with his craftiness, cunning, and calumny. The Lord tells Jeremiah to preach to Israel, but warns that he's sending him among serpents that cannot be tamed. Jesus admonishes the Pharisees that in their hissing fits of self-righteousness, they're a brood of vipers.And just like it did with our first parents, Adam and Eve, Satan's lies, along with sin's poison, came creeping and crawling, slithering and sliding, into the hearts and out of the mouths of Israel in the wilderness. “Why have you brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? For there is no food and no water, and we loathe this worthless food.”So what did God do? Tell them to pound sand right back into slavery? No. He did what he does throughout Scripture. He brought punishment, yes, but also promise. Warning, but also a way of rescue. Judgment, but also a sign of justification. Those fiery serpents were instruments of God's work of repentance and restoration. And then, the Lord took the serpent, a sign of temptation, evil, sin, and death, and turned it into a sign of salvation, goodness, righteousness, and life. Moses made a bronze serpent. Set it on a pole for all to see. And anyone who looked at it lived. This isn't the last time God takes a sign of sin, suffering, and death and turns it into a sign of salvation, reconciliation, and life. Only this time, it wasn't in the wilderness, but on a hilltop outside Jerusalem. And it wasn't a pole, but a wooden cross. And it wasn't a bronze serpent, but the Lord himself in the flesh. Jesus died for you. Defeated the Serpent at his own game. For just as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of Man be lifted up, that whoever believes in him may have eternal life.In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.Your cross I place before me; It's saving power restore me, Sustain me in the test. It will, when life is ending, Be guiding and attending My way to Your eternal rest. (LSB 453:7)Rev. Samuel Schuldheisz, pastor of Beautiful Savior Lutheran Church in Milton, WA.
Potter Revisited Episode #109 Make Hogwarts Great Again AKA Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Chapter 11 "The Sorting Hat's New Song" It is such an odd time to be rereading OOTP with its themes of government overreach Harry sees the Thestrals pulling the carriages when Ron doesn't and is starting to think he is losing it since Luna can see them too Harry is bottling up a lot of feelings, thoughts and emotions which isn't healthy Luna says Hagrid is a bad teacher and tbh, she isn't wrong. Ginny, Ron and Harry have a biased view This is one of the only times where Harry is starting the year with people talking about him negatively Harry notes that the new person at the staff table is the witch from his Ministry Hearing - while Hermione instantly infers that Umbridge is the new DADA teacher The Sorting Hat has a new song that is very different from his usual - explaining the different houses and their preferred traits This song goes into some Founders lore including rifts in friendships, ego clouding judgement and if sorting is actually a good thing and issues a warning that Hogwarts is in danger Shay has some issues with how the hat generalizes the houses, such as Slytherin's and Hufflepuff's Dumbledore is scandalously interrupted by Umbridge who gives a weird speech Umbridge gives off the vibe that she has never spoken to a real child before and comes off very condescending Children should not be friends with teachers / adults, Umbridge!!! Ron and Hermione quickly realize they have Prefect Duties at the end of the feast to attend to Is Ron acting odd about his badge because he feels he doesn't deserve it, or that he doesn't want to rub it in Harry's face that he got it Or is it more about not wanting to be like Percy, who abandoned the family? Neville is so excited that he knows the password and will be able to remember it Harry is surprised and angry that Seamus' mom doesn't believe him and Dumbledore, and how Seamus is fishing for information on how Cedric died Dean brings up that is parents don't know what has happened because he hasn't told them - does Hogwarts not inform parents, especially muggle parents? Death of a student would be a big thing to keep hidden We love Ron standing up for Harry. He would throw down if needed Neville's quiet support of Harry is so nice Harry has people on his side, but is is struggling with having people he has known for years turn against him which is hard Snape Sucks count for Chapter 11: 0 Email any thoughts, questions or feedback to potterrevisitedpodcast@gmail.com Music: Shelter Song by Alexander Nakarada (www.serpentsoundstudios.com) Licensed under Creative Commons BY Attribution 4.0 License https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Follow Us: Facebook https://www.facebook.com/potterrevisited Twitter https://twitter.com/potterevisited Instagram https://www.instagram.com/potterrevisited_/ Youtube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4v2Xt0OIQ8_LCVYhKf2S5A TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@potterrevisited

The Potter Discussion: Harry Potter, Fantastic Beasts and the Wizarding World Fandom
Send us Fan MailIn this episode, Harry sees the memories from Tom Riddle's diary and begins to wonder: who's the real heir of Slytherin? Lockhart throws a Valentine's Day party, and Hermione gets petrified. After Harry and Ron's visit to Hagrid to discuss the basilisk ends in Hagrid arrest, they are resolved to "following the spiders" to finally see the end of this saga. Enjoy!Topics/Summary:· Listen to Tea Leaves S2 E5 here!· 1:33 Quick Recap and Riddle's first memory. This memory isn't really coherent. It's more to show us who Riddle is and how important he will be. Quick shots of Riddle, maybe standing in the Chamber of Secrets, maybe somewhere in the castle.· 14:17 Polyjuice! This whole saga is going to be fun. The trio takes the potion in the bathroom, and Hermione unfortunately grabbed the wrong kind of hair and becomes a cat. Harry and Ron are still on a timer, however, so they must forge on. They go talk to Malfoy and find that he is not the heir.· 20:55 Valentine's Day. This is a great time for Lockhart to be an idiot. The Great Hall is adorned with a million gift shops of decorations. Ginny sends Harry a singing dwarf.· 23:30 The diary has been stolen. His bed sheets are hanging off the frame and his trunk was rifled through. He finds that the diary has been stolen, and he rushes down to tell Ron, but instead he finds out that Hermione was petrified. · 28:50 Harry and Ron go talk to Hagrid to get more information on the basilisk that Hermione found out, but he is taken to Azkaban. He tells Harry and Ron to “follow the spiders.” The episode ends with Riddle's second memory. He shows Harry how Hagrid was found out as the heir and was expelled. Harry thinks Riddle is a true Hogwarts hero, but still wonders: how in the world could it be Hagrid? ThePotterDiscussion@gmail.comthepotterdiscussion.comNox
Potter Revisited Episode #108 Very Right and Very Wrong AKA Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Chapter 10 "Luna Lovegood" Harry has some odd dreams after the party from the end of last chapter It is smart of Moody to make sure Harry has a guard for his return to Hogwarts Shay finds it odd Harry doesn't have a guard for the train We love the chaos of the days preparing to leave for Hogwarts Fred and George knock Ginny down the stairs in the chaos Sirius decides to come to Kings Cross as a dog, and Mrs Weasley doesn't care anymore Lupin says goodbye by giving Harry and co a handshake - is this a british thing? Ron and Hermione have to go to to the Prefects carriage and Harry is sad about traveling without Ron Thank god for Ginny taking pity on Harry as she likely has her own friends she could be sitting with Harry thinking lowly of Neville makes Shay mad We are finally introduced to Luna Lovegood as we love her Luna is much more eccentric in the books but she is very aware of how she is perceived but will not edit herself to appease people which is nice to see Neville got a rare plant as a gift from his great uncle, and it is so nice to see Neville's interests appreciated by someone in his family Shay thinks that Luna and Neville make a good couple Neville's attempt to show off his plants powers goes poorly when Cho Chang seems Harry and co covered in stinky plant sap Hermione reveals that Malfoy and Pansy are Slytherin prefects and seems very put out by Pansy being selected rather than Malfoy Shay is very upset about Malfoy being made prefect and for the first time ever - is giving Snape +1 sucks point for it!!! Harry borrows The Quibbler from Luna and finds an interesting article about Sirius - as adults we can appreciate how funny this is a lot more The Quibbler seems like a satire magazine except that they belief these opinions are true To be fair to the Quibbler, they do proper interviews and back up their opinions with some evidence unlike Rita Skeeter Hermione accidentally insults Luna - They are both such contrasting characters, like foils of each other which make their interactions so fun and interesting. They really are the Sully and Mulder of Hogwarts. Hermione uses logic and evidence to back her opinions, where Luna has faith and belief Malfoy comes right on schedule to bully Harry as usual - but Harry can't really be bothered by Malfoy's typical schoolyard insults after what he has been through in GoF Harry is very worried when he sees Hagrid is not guiding the first years to Hogwarts Harry comes face to face with a Thestral - which is he now able to see pulling the carriages for the first time Harry being able to see them now is likely that he witnessed and processed that Cedric died in front of him, and he wasn't able to do that as an infant for his parents or could it be that he was wearing glasses when he saw Cedric die and wasn't when he was a baby? Malfoy implies he knows about Sirius' dog disguise - Harry is now very concerned about the risk Sirius took Why do they have the Thestrals pulling the carriages at Hogwarts? Could it be to spot students that may need more support? We love how Luna seems to be presented as nerodivergent and what it meant to us growing up Snape Sucks count for Chapter 10: 1 Email any thoughts, questions or feedback to potterrevisitedpodcast@gmail.com Music: Shelter Song by Alexander Nakarada (www.serpentsoundstudios.com) Licensed under Creative Commons BY Attribution 4.0 License https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Follow Us: Facebook https://www.facebook.com/potterrevisited Twitter https://twitter.com/potterevisited Instagram https://www.instagram.com/potterrevisited_/ Youtube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4v2Xt0OIQ8_LCVYhKf2S5A TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@potterrevisited

Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!Length: 1 hour 7 minutesSynopsis: Last night (2/1/26), I was honored to give a shiur at Congregation Eitz Chayim of Dogwood Park (West Hempstead, NY) in memory of my dear student Adira a"h, on the occasion of her third yahrzeit. As I mention in the disclaimers toward the beginning, a friend of mine was worried that it might come across as "a wackadoodle shiur," on account of its eclectically ambitious scope and agenda. I didn't care. My goal was to give over the type of Torah that represented Adira, and that she would have enjoyed.The shiur might alternatively be titled “The Slytherin Path to Torah,” and is my attempt to demonstrate that such a path exists. If that doesn't mean anything to you - or if, as Adira's mom joked, you're prone to mistaking “Salazar Slytherin” for the name of a Chasidish rebbe you're not familiar with - don't worry. I provide the necessary background information at the beginning of the shiur.One more disclaimer I feel obligated to repeat. In the shiur, I draw upon my personal takeaways from Lawrence Kaplan's introduction to Maimonides: Between Philosophy and Halakhah, based on notes taken by Rabbi Gerald Homnick on the lectures given by the Rav (Rabbi Joseph B. Soloveitchik zt”l) on the Guide for the Perplexed at Bernard Revel Graduate School (1950–1951). My takeaways should not be regarded as authoritative. In fact, my one regret is that I made a last-minute decision to omit an entire portion of the Rav's argument, which I subsequently realized was critical for the level of clarity I was aiming for. Oh well. If you're interested in a fuller understanding of the abstract ideas toward the end of the shiur, you should read at least Kaplan's introduction to this work.You can find my eulogy for Adira here.And my reflection on her shivah here.And my attempt to process my own grieving here.-----מקורות:פאה א:ארמב"ם - משנה תורה: ספר זמנים, הלכות מגילה וחנוכה ד:ידאבות ב:טרס"ג - הקדמה לפירוש משליתמיד דף לב עמוד אמשלי א:יז-יט; גיג-טז; ח:יב-כא; י:ד; יא:יז; יד:לדמצודת דוד - משלי כה:כא-כברמב"ם - מורה הנבוכים ג:נג-נדירמיהו ט:כב-כגLawrence Kaplan, "Maimonides: Between Philosophy and Halacha" (pp.36,49-50,53)ירושלמי מכות ג:יגרמב"ם - משנה תורה: ספר המדע, הלכות תלמוד תורה ה:יגBruce Lee's writings-----The Torah content for the month of February is sponsored by the Koffsky family in memory of Adira Rose Koffsky a”h, whose third yahrzeit is on the 11th of Shvat.
