EXODUS 32:7-14
JOHN 5:31-47
REFLECTION.
Moses is the most prominent figure in the race and religion of Israel. Indeed the Israelites of old and the Jewish people of today believe that God gave them their religion, Judaism ,through Moses. That made Moses the highest authority next to God. Whatever he wrote had the seal of God on it. But the people did not always follow Moses, for example when they made a Golden calf to worship it.He had to beg on their behalf before God, and God repented of the evil he planned,doing to them. They also did not obey Moses when they refuse to accept his testimony about Jesus ,they search the scriptures thinking in them lays eternal life but they still don't have the word of God in them. That did not trouble Jesus because he had a much higher testimony, that of his father, borne out by the miracles that he performed. If we are doing God's work, and people fail or refuse to show us recognition, it should not disturb us. It is enough that we have recognition from God whose work we are doing.
