Shimei

Good morning Mt. Vernon! I've been thinking a lot lately about our culture, our society, our planet recently. There is a lot going on. And no matter which side of any issue you find yourself on, there seems to be controversy. On the TV right now is a program with a naturalist touring some of the old archeology sites in Arizona. The history is so interesting. How different were their daily lives from ours today.


The book of 2 Samuel chapter 16 records a curious event where Shimei throws rocks at David as he passed by. Not only at David, but at his well armed soldiers. What an image! I'm struck by David's response.


Let's look at Shimei's actions, David's actions, and our actions!


See you tomorrow!
