Summary

Today we read about the critical moment when Assyria destroys the Northern Kingdom, and the ten northern tribes are exiled and assimilated among the nations. Fr. Mike explains how this moment and the foreign possession of Samaria is key in order to understand Jesus' encounter with the Samaritan woman in John 4. We also read about how the prophet Micah beautifully foreshadows the birth of Jesus. Today's readings are 2 Kings 17, Micah 5-7, and Psalm 140.

0:00.0	Hi, my name is Father Mike Schmitz and you're listening to the Bible in a year podcast,
0:07.4	where we encounter God's voice and live life through the lens of Scripture.
0:10.4	The Bible in a year podcast is brought to you by Ascension.
0:13.2	Using the great adventure Bible timeline, we'll read all the way from Genesis to Revelation,
0:17.2	discovering how the story of salvation unfolds and how we fit into that story today
0:20.6	is day 183. Okay, so I think yesterday I said that halfway through day 182, 182.5,
0:27.5	we would be halfway through. I think that math is wrong. I think that means halfway through
0:31.3	today is when we're at 182.5, right? That doesn't make sense? I think so. So this is halfway. So
0:38.4	today is halfway. And if you celebrate it yesterday, wow, I've made it halfway. You can
0:42.9	celebrate again today because it's the maybe maybe real halfway. I don't know. People who are
0:46.8	better at math than me. And I didn't realize it's a simple division. You're just dividing
0:50.4	365 by two. But you know, nonetheless, we're at day 183. We're reading Second Kings chapter 17.

1:32.7	And hello, because they don't let you do that. I'm not let you do that. I mean, sure, they
