Heaven's Tableland | Leonard Sweet, LenTalk#168, PreachTheStory, Lectionary Semiotics 11June 2023

About this sermon

The Lectionary Passages for the Week 04 June 2023: Genesis 12:1-9 Psalm 33:1-12 Romans 4:13-25 Matthew 9:9-13, 18-26 This week's LenTalk #168 ("Heaven's Tableland") is a little more lecturly and dense than usual. But I needed to set up theologically and semiotically the Big Reveal at the end: At the Last Supper, Jesus brought together into himself the two major features around which Temple worship revolved: the altar of sacrifice ("This is my blood, shed for you") and the table of bread ("This is my body, broken for you"). Jesus himself becomes embodied Torah and embedded Temple, and as we "Do This in Remembrance" we ourselves become "living temples of the living God. (1 Peter 2:4-3:7).
