DANIEL 2:
In the first chapter of Daniel, we heard how Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah were faithful to God in not wanting to be defiled by the king's food, and later they were found better than their companions and chosen for service to King Nebuchadnezzar.
ISAIAH 23:
Yesterday we heard two dramatic messages. One was about the failure of Jerusalem to appropriately respond to God's impending judgment (which was remarkably like Nero fiddling while Rome burned). Then there was the message to Shebna, the palace administrator. Eliakim would take his place and be like a nail firmly driven in a wall, and the holder of the key to David's house. He can be understood as a figure of Christ.
2CORINTHIANS 3:12—4:
We'll start reading today by reviewing the greater glory of the new covenant Paul spoke of at the end of chapter 3.
NLT Translation notes:
2Cor. 3:13 We are not like Moses, who put a veil over his face so the people of Israel would not see the glory [reflected there was continually fading away//, even though it was destined to fade away.]
14 But the people's minds were hardened, and to this day whenever the old covenant is [0/being] read, the same veil covers their minds so they cannot understand the truth. [That veil is//And this veil can be] removed only by believing in Christ.
15 Yes, even today when they read Moses' writings, [it is as if] their hearts are [still] covered with that veil, and they do not understand.
