Saul was “the man.” He was born in Tarsus of Cilicia to a Gentile mother and a Jewish father. His father was even a member of the respected party of the Pharisees. His father was also from the small, but very proud, tribe of Benjamin. In obedience to the Law of Moses, little Saul was circumcised dutifully and meticulously on the eighth day of his life. Not only was young Saul born a “Jew,” but he was raised as a “Hebrew.” He was taught, and spoke, the Aramaic language fluently.

One year and two days ago, our contract was signed with Advanced Building Corporation, and in the time since then a lot has happened: we broke ground right out there. We put our volunteers immediately to work, pulling away the brick from the north wall of the building. We scurried to get our building permit just in time for the excavation.
“Satan Has Asked to Sift All of You”
As you well know by now, in our Lenten services this year we are spending some time with our Savior during “The Crucial Hours.” Crucial…coming from the Latin word “crux,” which means “cross.” These are the “cross” hours of Jesus, leading up to his “crucifixion,” again from “crux.” His “cross”-ifiction. These were intense hours for Jesus as his work of being this world’s Sin-Bearer reached its goal.
The Tempted Jesus Means a Sympathetic Jesus
She ran down the hallway and into her room. She slammed the door and flopped onto her bed. She had had an awful day. It all started in school with an argument she had with a couple of her friends.

She thought to herself, “No one understands me!”
