One Year Bible: Day 56 - Exodus 37:1-38:31; Mark 8:14-9:1; Proverbs 6:1-11
Jesus warns His disciples against the godless influence of the
Pharisees. Their influence on people is classed along with the evil
influence of Herod (Matthew 8:15). The
Pharisees had become obsessed with the externals of religion but they
had lost the awareness of God’s glory. They conformed to the details
(the kind of thing we find in Exodus 37-38), but they had missed the
real meaning of worship - giving glory to God. To those who bound by an
evil legalism, God’s Word says, “Free yourself, like a gazelle from the
hand of the hunter, like a bird from the snare of the fowler” (Proverbs 6:5).
The freedom which Christ gives is not freedom without discipline.
Scripture says, “Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider its ways and be
wise!” (Proverbs 6:6).
