Ezekiel 46-48, Psalms 133-135

I read the passage in Ezekiel this morning, but didn't take the time to enter the record until now. It took me about 20 minutes to read this. The time was somewhat longer because I read it outload to my Dad as we drove on vacation: he was driving and I was reading. What struck me most was the details which God prompted Ezekiel to record. The temple and the inheritance divisions were not a whim. God planned these out in fantastic details, which he passed on to Israel through Ezekiel.
The three psalms I read took less than 5 minutes to read. They were a contrast of points. The first extol the greatness of God. The last points out the foolishness of following idols of our own making. Psalm 136:18 could be summarized as: we grow to resemble the object of our worship.
