Ecclesiastes 3:1 – Hiatus

I giant clock sits on desert sands under an evening sky. (Grok)

There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens…

Greetings Dear Readers:

Thank you for joining me here—and to my faithful commenters, thank you for traveling with me during this season of exploring the Bible. Unfortunately, this season of daily posts has come to an end, at least for now. Future posts will occur as time allows.

If you are new to the blog, there are literally thousands of posts to explore on this site during this hiatus.

If you have questions or comments you can reach me at Jeff@threeminutebible.com.

God bless!

Colossians 4:6b – Salty Talk

Picture of salt being shaken out of a salt shaker.

[Let your conversation be]…seasoned with salt …

Summary: “Seasoned with salt” is a phrase that sounds interesting but lacks a connection with our modern world. Taking a look at the history of salt in biblical times might help us understand better what Paul meant.

Let’s begin this meditation with a question asked by Job many thousands of years ago:

“Can that which is unsavoury be eaten without salt? or is there any taste in the white of an egg?” (Job 6:6, KJV) He goes on to say, “I refuse to touch it; such food makes me ill.”

Ephesians 5:16a – Opper Nockity

… making the most of every opportunity

Summary: Old jokes and old sayings are the bulk of today’s meditation. Paul’s “opportunity” is also translated as “time” and “season.” The real question is, “What are you doing now?”
