Reeds were an important part of Ancient Near Eastern life.  Reeds were used by every culture for a variety of purposes.  Often woven together, the long leaves were used for baskets, making drainpipes, musical instruments, and walking sticks.  They were also used to make paper and rope.   At the crucifixion of  Jesus, a sponge was put on a long reed and was offered to Him. 

Fault Lines and Restoration

Jesus fulfills in his sacrifice the Ceremonial and the Civil part of Old Testament covenants. However, the moral covenant of the 10 Commandments is still very much in affect.

Unlike our calendars, the New Year was recorded differently in the Old Testament times. Their New Year started with preparations for Passover.  However, things change for the Jewish people. 

For unto us a Savior is born!
