What really are our America idols?
How blatant idolatry has become in Israel. Incredibly, Micah, who has crafted his own idols, thinks he can placate the Lord by having a priest in his home. As if the Lord is placated by appearances and form rather than substance. While it seems inconceivable that Micah would think his personal priest could possibly make things right, don't we think like that? That maintaining the proper appearance is what it's all about?
From last year: "Not sure why the story of Micah is in here or why it gets more verse-time than Enoch or Methuselah or Jair's 30 sons on 30 donkeys. Maybe just for us to see how far from God Israel has wandered."
