Insight
I've been reading Matthew and I plan to read all of the gospels (as suggested by Don Miller) and I found this great imagery that I have to share with you. Ok so Jesus is basically chewing out the Pharisees because they have so many rules that everyone must abide by, yet they miss the whole point of what they were supposed to do. For example, they had rules about how many miles a man was allowed to walk on the Sabbath, but it really did not matter to God how many miles one should walk (or not walk) on the Sabbath, He just wanted it to be considered a day of rest. So here's the imagery: "You strain out a gnat but swallow a camel." Meaning they are so into the details that they miss the whole point that Jesus is trying to get across.
Just thought that was pretty cool...
Oh I forgot...GO STEELERS!
