Today's Reading - February 12, 2010

EXODUS 34:1-35:9
MATTHEW 27:15-31
PSALM 33:12-22
PROVERBS 9:1-6


Question of the day: How could the people of Jerusalem go from adoring Jesus to crucifying him a week later?

The Pharisees, who were the leaders of the Jewish faith, brought false charges against Jesus and spread lies about him. The people were anxiously awaiting their Messiah to free them from Roman rule. They no doubt began to doubt that this man Jesus, regardless of the miracles he had done, could be the Messiah. Especially since the leadership of their faith claimed him to be an imposter and a blasphemer.

What questions do you have?
