Did anyone see ER last night? Does anyone watch that show anymore? We used to watch it all the time but haven't in years, but we left the TV on last night and heard Abby Lockhart reading from the Bible in a voice-over, a sorrowful lament:
Why is light given to him who is in misery, and life to the bitter in soul?
This continued in snippets throughout the episode, all from the same book of the Bible. Do you know which one? Here's another passage that was read, part of God's reply:
Where were you when I laid the foundation of the earth?
I don't think it ever showed her reading, but it did show her holding a Bible at one point. Very interesting to hear Scripture quoted at such length on a prime-time network television show. It was a rather contemplative episode, in which Abby leaves the hospital and moves to Boston. Hopefully she (and others) also know this verse from the same book of the Bible:
I know that my Redeemer lives.
Do you know which book of the Bible it is? If not, check these links:
