Just wanted to share some observations from my studies today:

(From the Keil & Delitzsch Commentary concerning the Old Testament reading)

The constantly repeated unfaithfulness of the nation could not destroy the faithfulness of God, or alter His purposes of salvation.

(And from the Life Application Bible Commentary: Mark concerning the New Testament reading)

The old covenant was a shadow of the new, pointing forward to the day when Jesus himself would be the final and ultimate sacrifice for sin.

The physical suffering would be horrible enough, but what God’s Son feared most was the cup of spiritual suffering—taking on sin and being separated from God (Hebrews 5:7-9).

God is so GOOD!
