Psalm: 101 Meditation: 2 KingsDo all stories in the Bible show a test of faith? The people of Judah had watched the collapse of Israel and the people’s exile. The Assyrians focused their attention on Judah and the king gave up the wealth of the temple and his palace rather than face the wrath of …

Psalm: 33 Meditation Jeremiah: Judah has abandoned her covenant with God. God has sent several prophets to speak to the people warning them that just as Israel (the Northern Kingdom) was carried away for their sin so will be Judah. The promise is that while Judah will go to Babylon their release is also promised …

Psalm: 17 Meditation Jeremiah: This section of Jeremiah speaks of the relationship between the Jews and God. ‘“For as a belt is bound around a man’s waist, so I bound the whole house of Judah and the whole house of Israel to me,’ declares the LORD, ‘to be My people for My renown and praise …

Psalm: 16 Meditation Isaiah: It appears the LORD does not have any good things to say to Judah. These Jews would have been insulted at being mentioned in the same breath as Sodom and Gomorrah and here the Judeans are being identified with those reprobates. I hope we remember the horrendous period of the Judges …

Psalms: 70, 76 Meditation Micah: Micah is one of very few prophets addressing himself to both Israel (the “Northern Kingdom” or the 10 tribes) and Judah (& Benjamin) in the south during the late 8th century B.C. (That may date the writing to somewhere around 725 B.C.) He has nothing good to say to either …

Psalm: 62 Meditation Zephaniah: Zephaniah preached to Judah during the reign of righteous King Josiah. He spoke to warn them of coming judgment – not unlike the judgment brought upon the Northern Kingdom (Israel). He told them of the “day of the LORD” which was brought upon Judah for worshipping false gods. This final chapter …

Psalms: 22 Meditation Jude: This “general” epistle of Jude has all the earmarks of an impending judgment very much like those visited upon Israel and Judah in Old Testament days. Jude talks of godless men who change the grace of God into a license to be immoral. I suspect this is true of any age …

Psalms: 19 Meditation Amos: Amos was a sheep breeder or shepherd from Judah sent to prophesy to Israel during the time of King Jeroboam II in about 754 B.C. He does not see himself as a prophet but as one burdened and outraged by the sin (idolatry) he witnesses in Samaria. The greatest sin was …

Psalm: 4, 7 Meditation Jeremiah: Josiah was the last good and faithful king of Judah. Jehoiakim, son of Josiah, was an evil, and it turns out, an arrogant king. Fair warning had been given during the reign of Josiah his father, but that waning was not heeded – that is why Josiah died young. Jehoiakim, …

Psalms: 128, 129, 130 Meditation 2 Kings: A woman prophet – or prophetess? Never! Well, actually they had been around since Moses’ day – even his own sister Miriam was a prophetess. Deborah, a judge in Israel was also a prophetess. Huldah, this prophetess tells Josiah that all of the disaster spoken of by Moses …
