Today's Reading - April 12, 2010

Joshua 5:1-7:15
Luke 15:1-32
Psalm 81:1-16
Proverbs 13:1


Question of the day: Why weren't the Israelites boys circumcised while the Nation of Israel was wandering in the wilderness?

Number 8:18 may give us a clue: "But I have taken the Levites instead of every firstborn among the sons of Israel." God adopted the Levites as his chosen people during the wandering, but after the Israelites entered the Promised Land, he "re-adopted" the sons of Israel and had them circumcised.
