8Th ‘Day’ Study, verses R paraphrased [ref] {thots}

Hebrews 12:1-2  Luke 8:1-8

            ☀️ A.M. Hebrews 12:1-2

1 - Therefore, having a cloud of witnesses encompassing us {“literally or figuratively” ..I think referring to GWT ‘day’ of judgment/history-review/discernment - since the previous verse (11:40) refers to a ‘crowd’ “not perfected without us” referring of course, to Jesus’ return when followers “put on perfection” which is the beginning of his two millennium long second advent, Rev.20} let us therefor throw off everything that hinders! And the sin [missing the mark, greek word hamartia] that so easily entangles.

     Let us run with patience and steadfastness, the race that is marked out for us, 2 keeping our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer, and the perfecter of our faith. He, for the joy set before him, endured the cross, scorning its shame. And then he sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

            🌙 P.M. Luke 8:1-8

1 - Jesus was traveling from town to town and from village to village proclaiming the - good news of the kingdom of God. The Twelve were with him, 2 and also some women who had been cured of evil spirits and infirmities, including Mary who was called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out. (This gospel, written by Luke the doctor.) 3 Also there was Joanna the wife of Chuza, the manager of Herod’s household, Susanna, and many others. These women helped to support Jesus and his disciples out of their own household.

     4 When a large crowd had gathered - for people were coming out to Jesus, from the towns and villages - he told them a parable.

     5 “A farmer went out sowing his seed. And as he was scattering the seed, some of it fell along the path and it was trampled on, and the birds came and ate it up.

     6 Some fell on dry rocky ground, and when it came up, the plants withered away because they had no root. 7 Other seed fell among thorn bushes and grew up for a while among them, but were choked off by the thorn bushes.

     8 But still other seed fell upon good soil, and it came up, grew, and yielded a crop. A hundred times more than was planted.” And when he had said this, he called out, “Whoever has ears to hear, let them hear.” 🌽
