This is the Baymont podcast with Marty Solomon.

I'm his co-host, Brent Billings.

Today we're watching The Prophet parallel the experience of God's people with the history of their patriarch, Jacob.

Something I probably wouldn't have seen had somebody else not pointed it out.

I am like everybody else. Well, maybe nobody else is like this. I don't know. I was trained to very, like I just, I skim through the,

I don't skim what I mean. I read to the prophets looking for the large exegetical ideas.

What are the propositions that are applicable to my day that I'm trying to look,

and I just do it very, not quickly as in haste. My brain just immediately gravitates in that direction.

And sometimes I miss, like one of the things I love about when Josh has joined us on this

series is he immediately starts associating, okay, why is that reference?

What was that place?

What was and pulls us into all these different levels of seeing what the profit is doing?

And I'm just glad for the work of other people that aren't stuck in the same rut that I get

stuck in because of my assumptions, training.

So I appreciate somebody pointing out what the Prophet's doing here in Hosea 12.

And I'm going to do something weird.

We're not going to start at the beginning of our passage, Brent.

I'm going to send you to the end of our passage today.

Okay.

We'll circle back around and do every verse, including the long, lost verse in Hebrews and Hebrews.

In Hosea 11 that we missed the last time we left hanging right there.

We're not going to forget it.
