For Discussion: What Does a Meat Market in Biblical Times Look Like?


The scribes and Pharisees…love the…markets.
(Matt. 23:1-7)

A scripture this week found in the International Sunday School Curriculum speaks of the “market” or marketplace. The Bible markets were filled with daily activities. Here are some things that were done there:

  • Religious leaders loved to gather there
  • Selling of animals, foods, and spices
  • Bartering and trading
  • People often looked for work
  • Trials and hearings were held there
  • Legal transactions were made
  • Religious and political debates occurred there

Attention: All ETA Advanced Graduates


 

south-lyon-junk-099.jpgThe International Christian Education Auxiliary (ICEA) has some wonderful news for all former ETA Advanced Grads. We are in the process of selling the gold stoles you used during your graduation. These stoles make great souvenirs. ICEA recently purchased new stoles, which are monogramed with the new initials (ICEA). We are letting the former stoles go for only $5.00 each. While they last, you may purchase one for a keep-sake. E-mail me so I can hold yours before they are all gone. I will be announcing the sale of these stoles during the National Convention. You will have a souvenir of your own to remind everyone of your participation in the ETA ceremony.

Lessons from Life – #103


The way a rainbow springs out of the sky
on a rainy day—that’s what it was like. It
turned out to be the Glory of God!
(Ezekiel 1:28 – MSG Bible)

I was really down because of something I was going through and I needed a reminder of God’s love. That night as I was so in a state of despondency. I cried out to the Lord to show me a sign of His love just for me. (Knowing in my spirit that He would.) Early the next morning, I awoke and went outside. I looked up over the side of my house and saw the most beautiful double rainbow that I have ever seen in my life!
(From a PCAF member.)

God has ways of reaching us in the most difficult times!
He reveals and expresses His renewed love so that
we are continually strengthened by
those revelations and dimensions of Him.

Lessons from Life – #102


God hates cheating in the marketplace;
    he loves it when business is aboveboard.
(Prov. 11:1 – MSG Bible)

Money.jpg

I was called to a home and completed a work for an old man today. I was very proud of myself to have finished the task. “That will be 40.00 dollars”, I said, after completing the work. He promptly reached into his wallet and handed me three crisp 20.00 dollar bills, totaling 60.00 dollars. These were the type of bills that seemed fresh from the bank…the kind that stick together. He was well into his 90s and wasn’t aware he had given me too much money. I could have easily pocketed the extra 20.00. I quickly returned the 20.00 bill to him, and said: “I may have kept this 20.00 bill one time in my life, but I am planning on seeing Jesus!”

God sees every transaction we have with others and He knows if we have been unfair in dealing with then financially. There are times when only we know our motives for estimating, charging, and figuring…and whether those motives are aboveboard. We all should practice integrity down to every single penny.
