In today’s reading of Tyndale’s OYCSB (with featured content written by the CBT team),
- Jesus teaches the crowd gathered at the temple concluding their observance of the Feast of Trumpets, the Day of Atonement, and the Feast of Shelters.
- In the crowd, there are those who believe Jesus and those who don’t.
- Jesus exposes the people’s main problem: they have created an imaginary god and called him Yahweh.
- Jesus sends a group of 72 into the harvest field like He sent the disciples earlier. He teaches them that although kingdom work is rewarding, they should rejoice in their eternal reward.
- Jesus defines for an expert in the law what the law he has studies actually means.
- The disciples want to learn how to pray. Jesus teaches our need in the discipline of prayer.
