The 40 days of Lent echo the 40 years in the Wilderness, where Israel had to learn to trust in God. God gives us all wilderness experiences that likewise are opportunities to grow in faith. Read the rest of the story: www.fatherdave.org/blog/god-helps-those-who-help-tā¦

The idea of the 'Horns of Moses' goes back to an ambiguity in the Hebrew wording of Exodus 34:29. It literally reads, āMoses did not know that the skin of his face was qÄran-edā, where the Hebrew word, āqÄranā, is normally translated as āshoneā, and yet the verb is derived from the Hebrew word for āhorn.ā Accordingly, Jeromeās fourth century Vulgate translation renders the verse, ācornuta esset facies suaā ā āhis face was horned.ā
Yes, itās probably a mistranslation, but we shouldnāt let that detract from the insight that Mosesā closeness to God had an effect on his body that the Torah had trouble putting into words, just as the Gospels struggle to explain what really happened to Jesus in His transfiguration.

My Tribute to the Syrian Arab Army
Father Dave here, and Iām still grieving the collapse of Syria, and the ascendency of one-time Al Qaeda leader, Ahmed Hussein al-Sharaa, to the countryās leadership.
Iāve been fearing for my many Syrian friends. Iāve been praying for their safety ā perhaps most of all for my dear brother, Dr Hassoun, formerly the former Grand Mufti of Syria. Iāve also been feeling that someone should be paying tribute to the Syrian Arab Army ā to all the young men and women who laid down their lives over a period of about 12 years, trying to prevent what eventually happened.
