Scriptural Reasoning 5

• What is of importance in these biblical passages? What mode of ethical reasoning, if any, is employed in these passages? • What ethical issues are connected to these passages? What might the biblical passages be saying about them? What questions do the ethical themes, if any, present to the biblical texts? • Have I been changed, challenged, and/or deepened by these readings, and how? What should I do today, in response to reading these passages of Scripture? Writing Prayers: • In addition to your responses to the above questions, you are to write a prayer. The prayer should (1) be based on/reflect the scripture passages, (2) emphasize themes of the liturgical season/day, and (3) express a commitment to justice. In addition to submitting the prayer with your Scriptural Reasoning reflection, please post the prayer at the Discussions in Populi.
