Bible Meditations On The Mystery Of Good Friday and Easter

I am ever thankful for the blood sacrifice of Jesus Christ. I ponder the mystery of His Love:

All who were willing, men and women alike, came and

brought gold jewelry of all kinds;

brooches, earrings, rings and ornaments.

 They all presented their gold as a wave

offering to the Lord.

Bible Exodus 36:22

Your cheeks are beautiful with

 earrings,

your neck with strings of jewels.

We will make you earrings of gold,

studded with silver.

Bible Song of Songs 1:10-11

In that day the Lord will snatch away

their finery: the bangles and headbands

and crescent necklaces, the earrings

and bracelets and veils, the head-

dresses and ankle chains and sashes, the

perfume bottles and charms, the signet

rings and nose rings, the fine robes and

the capes and cloaks, the purses and the

 mirrors and the linen garments and tiaras

and shawls.

Bible Isaiah 3:18-23

For you know that it was not with per-

ishable things such as silver or gold that

you were redeemed from the empty way

of life handed down to you from your

forefathers, but with the precious blood

of Christ, a lamb without blemish or de-

fect.
