Wednesday night, we're going to continue our study through the Bible, verse by verse, chapter by chapter, book by book.

We draw our text from our upcoming Wednesday study on these Sunday mornings.

But before I have you turn to John chapter 6, we're going to do a little bit of work in the Old Testament.

Because remember, that which is revealed in the new is concealed in the old.

But the Old testament gives us all

these beautiful pictures that helps us understand what's being said in the new testament and you're

poorer if you chalk off the old testament you won't understand some of the new testament truths this is a

great example of that that I'm going to show you today so uh we'll have you bounce around a little bit

in the scripture before we get to our

main text. John chapter six happens. Jesus is at the synagogue there in Copernium. We'll see that on

Wednesday night. And that's the picture behind me. This is actual picture of the synagogue that's there

in Copernium, the ruins of it, at least archaeologically. They dug this up, and it's

kind of cool. When I was a kid, did any of you guys read Boys Life when you were a kid?

How many of you got Boys Life magazine when you were kid? That's quite a few of you guys.

It was cool. It was a Boy Scout publication. The Boy Scouts, you know, started, I think,

somewhere around 19, I forget when they started, but the Boys Life magazine started around 1911, and they started cranking out these issues and boys all over the world were excited about learning about, you know, how to sharpen a knife or how to kind of kind of kind of kind of kill a fire or how to, or how to pack a survival kit.

You know, like just kind of little boy stuff.

Now, we didn't get the magazine, but my next-door neighbor's older brother got it.

And then after he saw it, then my neighbor's younger brother read it,

and then after he got it, I'd get the copy.

And I was always excited to get

the Boys Life magazine. Basically, it's put out by Boy Scouts. And it was really cool. I loved it.
