"I will put My law in their minds, and write it on their hearts"

NOTES ON THE SCRIPTURES
Jeremiah 31:27-34 - Hope: God promises a day will come when the exiles would return to their homeland and live under a new covenant — "I will put my law within them and I will write it on their hearts; and I will be their God."

Psalm 119: 97-104 - Learning and observing the precepts of God is the key to life. (adapted from Weekly Comments on the Revised Common Lectionary, Theological Hall of the Uniting Church, Melbourne, Australia.) 

2 Timothy 3:14—4:5 - Leaders Persevering:  "Continue in what you have learned ... all scripture is inspired by God and is useful for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness. Proclaim the message ... do the work of an evangelist."
​
Luke 18:1-8 - Keep on Praying: The persistent widow and the unjust judge: "Will not God grant justice?" "When the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on earth?"
