Then the people came to Moses and said, “We have sinned in complaining against the LORD and you. Pray to the LORD to take the serpents from us.” So Moses prayed for the people, and the LORD said to Moses: Make a seraph and mount it on a pole, and everyone who has been bitten will look at it and recover. Accordingly Moses made a bronze serpent and mounted it on a pole, and whenever the serpent bit someone, the person looked at the bronze serpent and recovered. NM 21:7-9
Dowód miłości
Wtedy rzekł Pan do Mojżesza: «Sporządź węża i umieść go na wysokim palu; wtedy każdy ukąszony, jeśli tylko spojrzy na niego, zostanie przy życiu». Sporządził więc Mojżesz węża z brązu i umieścił go na wysokim palu. I rzeczywiście, jeśli kogoś wąż ukąsił, a ukąszony spojrzał na węża z brązu, zostawał przy życiu. Lb 21, 8-9
God loves you so much
As he drew near to the gate of the city, a man who had died was being carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow. A large crowd from the city was with her. When the Lord saw her, he was moved with pity for her and said to her, “Do not weep.” He stepped forward and touched the coffin; at this the bearers halted, and he said, “Young man, I tell you, arise!” The dead man sat up and began to speak, and Jesus gave him to his mother. Fear seized them all, and they glorified God, exclaiming, “A great prophet has arisen in our midst,” and “God has visited his people.” LK 7:12-16
On ma słabość do Ciebie
Gdy przybliżył się do bramy miejskiej, właśnie wynoszono umarłego – jedynego syna matki, a ta była wdową. Towarzyszył jej spory tłum z miasta. Na jej widok Pan zlitował się nad nią i rzekł do niej: «Nie płacz». Potem przystąpił, dotknął się mar – a ci, którzy je nieśli, przystanęli – i rzekł: «Młodzieńcze, tobie mówię, wstań!» A zmarły usiadł i zaczął mówić; i oddał go jego matce. Wszystkich zaś ogarnął strach; wielbili Boga i mówili: «Wielki prorok powstał wśród nas, i Bóg nawiedził lud swój». Łk 7, 12-16
The great faith
When Jesus had finished all his words to the people, he entered Capernaum. A centurion there had a slave who was ill and about to die, and he was valuable to him. When he heard about Jesus, he sent elders of the Jews to him, asking him to come and save the life of his slave. They approached Jesus and strongly urged him to come, saying, “He deserves to have you do this for him, for he loves our nation and he built the synagogue for us.” And Jesus went with them, but when he was only a short distance from the house, the centurion sent friends to tell him, “Lord, do not trouble yourself, for I am not worthy to have you enter under my roof. Therefore, I did not consider myself worthy to come to you; but say the word and let my servant be healed. For I too am a person subject to authority, with soldiers subject to me. And I say to one, ‘Go,’ and he goes; and to another, ‘Come here,’ and he comes; and to my slave, ‘Do this,’ and he does it.” When Jesus heard this he was amazed at him and, turning, said to the crowd following him, “I tell you, not even in Israel have I found such faith.” When the messengers returned to the house, they found the slave in good health.
