Milk and Honey

Lev 20:19-27         9/11/2017

The promised land is a land flowing with milk and honey…a good land.

The promise of God: The Israelites will keep the land as long as they remain holy, set apart in the service of God.

God’s faithfulness is to the community.

The promise is collective and can only be achieved when the people work together for the common good.

We say, “Lord, may I sit at your right hand”.

Honor and power.

Jesus responds, “The greatest among you must be your servant.” Matt 23:11
