In last week’s episode we finished the New Testament with the completion of the Book of Revelation. I had suggested I would fill out future episodes by reading additional Psalms, but having had some feedback, for which I am grateful, I’ll be restarting the New Testament readings beginning with today’s episode.
So today I’ll start the Gospel of Matthew with chapters 1 to 3, I’ll read Psalms 117 and 118, and we’ll complete the Old
Testament book of Esther with chapters 4 to 10.
The first two minutes or so of today’s readings relate the genealogy of Jesus which can be a bit dry if you’re new to the scriptures, but I encourage you to stay with me so you don’t miss the engaging stories that follow.
Before I begin today’s readings, a quick word to remind you that Sleepy Scriptures is brought to you by my subscribers who listen ad-free, and by my advertising sponsors.
It’s time now to get comfortable. Sit back and relax or snuggle up in your bed. Take a moment to release some tension as you take a few deep breaths. Free your mind of earthly concerns and prepare to meditate upon episode 114 of Sleepy Scriptures.
