CONSIDER THIS<br />
Jesus’ invitation to Simon, Andrew, <strong>and</strong> Levi is the same<br />
invitation issued to you as well: “Come follow me!” Have you<br />
answered his call? Have you responded as these people did,<br />
immediately leaving behind your former life <strong>and</strong> running after<br />
Jesus’ new one? Spend some time considering this question<br />
<strong>and</strong> how you’ve responded to it.<br />
1 “Jacob” is a literal rendering from the original Greek. This disciple is<br />
more widely known as James.<br />

<strong>and</strong> Greek. In recent years, there have been many new discoveries<br />
regarding these original manuscripts, especially the Aramaic ones of<br />
the New Testament in addition to the Greek. The Aramaic texts are<br />
an important added lens through which to view God’s original Word to<br />
us.
