17 12 tribes set

1. I am a little sad to read about the death of Rachel right after the labor, but I am not sad for Isaac's death, which was natural. Israel and it's 12 tribes were finally established. (I always feel bad when I had to skip a long section of family tree. -- don't know how to take Esau's descendents into my bible study till this day :( )

2. "A bruised reed he will not break,
      and a smoldering wick he will not snuff out, "

like the this verse in Chinese better:
   压伤的芦苇、他不折断.将残的灯火、他不吹灭.

3." LORD, who may dwell in your sanctuary?
       Who may live on your holy hill? " -- I am unworthy I know, even based on my own judgement. :(

4. "when you lie down, you will not be afraid;
       when you lie down, your sleep will be sweet" -- Yes! Please help keep me that way, LORD!

创世记 35:1-36:43
-雅各要求全家除掉偶像,这是合神心意的。
-拉结生下便雅悯后立即死去,应验了她当初偷盗父亲神像后雅各在不知情时发出的诅咒。
-以扫和雅各的父亲以撒年老而终。

马太福音 12:1-12:21
1)我喜爱怜恤,不喜爱祭祀。--神是看中我们内心的。内心没有诚实地怜悯和爱,献祭也是枉然。

2)我们的主耶稣是安息日的主,任何时候他都是慈爱又施怜悯的主。

3)“他不争竞,不喧囔。街上也没有人听见他的声音。 压伤的芦苇,他不折断。经残的灯火,他不吹灭。等他施行公理,叫公理得胜。 ”--我们主耶稣基督的特质就是温柔谦卑,不争竞,充满慈爱、怜悯和公义。

诗篇 15:1-15:5
行为正直,作事公义,心里说实话的人必永不动摇!

箴言 3:21-3:26
要谨守真智慧和谋略。依靠耶和华,不陷入罪的网罗。

我们的神是永活的神!如果你与神同行,仰望他给你随时的帮助,永活的神保险不会误你的事。 这真的是太棒了!

Genesis: Really like Jacob's attitude to command his men to get rid of the idols. I also had a hard time to read the Esau's Descendants too:)

Matthew: Jesus continued healing people!

Psalm: wow! what a great image of the people who may live God's holy hill! Really like the last versus: He who does these things will never be shaken.

Proverbs: Wow! I really like it! I am very encouraged! I hope I can sleep well tonight! because for the LORD will be MY confidence and will keep MY foot from being snared!!!Yeah~~

1. I have the same feeling as Timothy. Sad for the death of Rachel. Jacob and Rachel had the touching love story but Rachel left Jacob alone finally...

2. I like this words “'I desire mercy, not sacrifice!” – From our reading, we can tell this was what Jesus did. Mercy provides help!

3. “preserve sound judgment and discernment, do not let them out of your sight” – So that you could do everything in the right way!
