Day 48..."Instructions for Grain Offering, Zion, No One Knows"

Today's Leviticus reading offers specifics about a grain offering. I was intrigued by the detail down to salt and no salt. The Psalmist's says..."Great is the Lord and greatly to be praised." Notice also the reference to the city of Zion. As I understand Zion is a symbolic place. Zion represents the fullness of the Kingdom of God. I remember the hymn "We're Marching to Zion." The ultimate of love, justice, and hope...the City of God. The Matthew reading is very informative for those who want to pin down the day and the hour of the Son of Man. Jesus responds it will come quickly but even He does not know the hour. How in the world can we?
