Sunday, June 18 : Book of Exodus 19,2-6.
After the journey from Rephidim to the desert of Sinai, they pitched camp. While Israel was encamped here in front of the mountain,
Moses went up the mountain to God. Then the LORD called to him and said, “Thus shall you say to the house of Jacob;
tell the Israelites: You have seen for yourselves how I treated the Egyptians and how I bore you up on eagle wings and brought you here to myself.
Therefore, if you hearken to my voice and keep my covenant, you shall be my special possession, dearer to me than all other people, though all the earth is mine.
You shall be to me a kingdom of priests, a holy nation. That is what you must tell the Israelites.”
