Daily Bible Reading – October 2022: God’s Renewing Word of Peace and Justice

Dia 21 de 31

October 21

Introduction

The daughters of Zelophehad speak up for their right to inherit their father’s property. Their case calls for a re-examination of the inheritance law concerning property.

Scripture Reading

Numbers 27:1-11

Today’s Key Verse: Numbers 27:7

[The LORD said:] “What the daughters of Zelophehad request is right; give them property among their father’s relatives. Let his inheritance pass on to them.”

Reflect

In Israel, property was usually passed on from father to son. How did the specific case of Zelophehad’s daughters affect change in the law? What does today’s reading teach you about the LORD’s justice?

Pray

Lord God, you care for all people. You are merciful and just in all your ways. Keep me mindful of those in need and help me to work for justice and peace and to be an instrument of your love and grace. Amen.

Tomorrow’s Reading

Numbers 36:1-13: The law concerning property rights is defined regarding tribal territory.
