Digging Deeper Daily: By Daily Bible Reading PodcastSample

EZEKIEL 28-29: So why were there two whole chapters against the city-state of Tyre in yesterday’s reading, plus one more today?! I think we see the answer in Revelation. Tyre is very like the picture of Babylon (which in that book is a picture of Rome). All the way through the Bible— starting with the Tower of Babel, we see a contrast between the ‘city of man’ and the ‘city of God’. The world powers will be utterly defeated, along with all the wealth of commerce that supports them now. ISAIAH 10: Yesterday’s reading included wonderful prophecies concerning Jesus that are quoted in the Gospels and in Handel’s Messiah: Is. 9:2 NLT The people who walk in darkness will see a great light. For those who live in a land of deep darkness, a light will shine. and 6 For a child is born to us, a son is given to us. The government will rest on his shoulders. And he will be called: Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. HEBREWS 6: Jesus is our High Priest, not in the order of Aaron, but Melchizedek. This chapter picks up where the last left off. Yesterday’s chapter ended with the call for spiritual maturity: Heb. 5:12b NLT “You are like babies who need milk and cannot [yet] eat solid food.”
