These readings emphasize the covenant which God had made with the people of
Israel. The Messiah would come and there would be fulfillment of the scriptures.
The leaders of the time did not recognize Jesus as the son of God; the one who
would come and place our sins at the altar of God for forgiveness and redemp-
tion. Jesus continues to call to us, to follow him, to believe and trust in him and
that he will lead us home to God.
