YEARLY REMINDER: “On the cross, as Jesus died, the wrath of God was satisfied!” It’s good and right to sing it. Details below.

Egyptologist Jacobus van Dijk writes as follows: An etymology found in the Coffin Texts (Spell 647) connects the deity name Ptaḥ with the verb ptḥ = ‘to fashion’,…which fits his role as a divine craftsman. It also works well with the use of פת׳׳ח = ‘to engrave’ in Exodus.

Nice to be quoted by Lord Frost in today’s Telegraph. But the quotation is significant. Tiberius has lots of coins and inscriptions, but in biographical genres there’s more material about Jesus. The argument is laid out in my little book Can We Trust the Gospels, published by

Phillip Magness suggests a guiding question for choosing church music: "What would Moses and Elijah want to sing if they dropped in?" Because, of course, they are singing with us. God is God of the living. theopolisinstitute.com/gatherings/the…

This Easter, Christians across the UK joined in prayer for the safe return of the hostages still held by Hamas. A powerful show of faith, hope, and solidarity. Thank you for standing with Israel. Wishing all who celebrate a peaceful and meaningful Easter.

The entire story of the Exodus could be read as the story of the return of the lost son, Joseph, and the salvation of the whole people in him. It is also a story anticipating resurrection. Jacob's spirit returned to him when he heard Joseph was alive (Genesis 45:27-28).

I should add that this is one reason why pastors are so important. Random teachers online can be like restaurants. They can serve highly appetizing teachings, often because they take no responsibility for your wider diet. But a pastor must.

‘What use to me’, God asks, ‘is frankincense (לבונה) from Sheba or sweet cane (קנה הטוב) from afar?’ (Jer. 6.20). Below, by way of illustration, is a cuboid incense burner from the Yemen (Sheba), inscribed with a particular aromatic on each side. (LBNY is לבונה, QNW קנה.)
