We @TheCottage explore how the ancient people of the Bible to whom God was speaking understood the Scriptures to show us how God was speaking to them yet communicating to them revelation for all of us even today even if in their context. In this episode we explore a story to help us frame the origins of Memorial Day which began after the Civil War in the US. We turn to 2 Samuel 3 and the civil war between the houses of Saul and David before David became king over the units kingdom. We are laying the foundation to discovering the riches hidden in the ancient Scriptures of God's people to learn God's way of doing and being in our daily lives. Stay tuned for our future episodes as we continue to discover more mysteries of the Bible in the sessions that follow.
