Tuesday, July 4: “Uncircumcised Ears II”
Luke 22: 69, 71: “‘From now on the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God’ … Then they said, ‘What further need do we have of testimony?
These words of Jesus should have brought great joy to the hearts of the members of the Sanhedrin–except that they had stopped listening to Jesus long ago, rather than to analyze His words for possible prosecutable offense. And anyone looking to be offended will succeed, sooner or later. So the truth for which they had waited so long went unheard, and that which was meant to bring life to many was turned by them into a death sentence. Thus is the fruit of uncircumcised ears.
