Reflection for the Week- January 26th 2010
Jesus redeems Israel from exile and thereby opens the way for all people to come into community with God. There is no longer a holy city, a sanctified place, or a Promised Land as Jesus de-centralizes and re-centers God’s righteousness in himself. All that had come previously is focused in and on him so that those who follow in his footsteps will inherit the blessings of love, liberty, and justice.
