Lectionary Musings: Ep.9 - Foxes & Hens

March 22, 2019 by Sacred Commons

“Jesus held out hope for Jerusalem but only the kind that might come on the far side of dying.” - Jonathan Martin

The Sacred Commons: a lenten lectionary musing on prophetic witness, lament, and hope.

Luke 13:31-35

Some Pharisees came and said to Jesus, "Get away from here, for Herod wants to kill you." He said to them, "Go and tell that fox for me, 'Listen, I am casting out demons and performing cures today and tomorrow, and on the third day I finish my work. Yet today, tomorrow, and the next day I must be on my way, because it is impossible for a prophet to be killed outside of Jerusalem.' Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the city that kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to it! How often have I desired to gather your children together as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, and you were not willing! See, your house is left to you. And I tell you, you will not see me until the time comes when you say, 'Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord.'"
