Luke 2:21
Rev. Dr. Stacey M. Cox
Compared to its context, with the manger scene before it, and the story of his temple presentation following it, Luke 2:21 may not seem all that significant. How quickly we read over it! Yet, it is very important to the truth of who Jesus is and what he came to do. Circumcision announced Jesus’ solidarity with us. He had to get in line with those he came to rescue. On the eighth day of life, he would shed his blood by drops. Thirty-three years later, his blood would pour. Join us Sunday for “Jesus in Line.”
