Summertime, at least where I live in the world, is a time for summer travel. Even with gasoline prices higher than I can ever remember, people are traveling by every available means of transportation. I wonder where your travels will lead you this summer.
Yesterday we witnessed an amazing event, about 2000 years ago, somewhere on the road leading south from Jerusalem toward Gaza. A royal chariot was traveling home to the African nation of Ethiopia. In that chariot was one of the most important officials in the Ethiopian government, the man in charge of the entire Ethiopian treasury. Beside him, in that royal chariot, was a simple looking Jewish man named Philip. Philip was experiencing the ride of his life at the invitation of this Ethiopian official who wanted an explanation to something he was reading… the Hebrew scroll of the prophet Isaiah! Together they were digging into one of the most important chapters in our Bible today, Isaiah 53, which, while written by Isaiah about 650 years before Jesus was born, describes in remarkable detail the suffering and crucifixion Jesus experienced in Jerusalem, as He became the God sent atonement sacrifice for the human race!
