Today's readings: Gen 25; Mt 24; Est 1; Act 24
Gen 25:22 But the children struggled inside her, and she said, “If it is going to be like this, Iʼm not so sure I want to be pregnant!”
Note: Heb "If [it is] so, why [am] I this [way]?" Rebekah wanted to know what was happening to her, but the question itself reflects a growing despair over the struggle of the unborn children.
Matt 24:37-39 For just like the days of Noah were, so the coming of the Son of Man will be. For in those days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day Noah entered the ark. And they knew nothing until the flood came and took them all away. It will be the same at the coming of the Son of Man.
