Transfiguration

Transmission Problems

Transfiguration A, Exodus 24:12-18

I had a car like Exodus once. Whenever you left the house you could never be sure you might not spend forty years wandering around stuck in the wilderness. It was a used '59 English Ford my dad got for fifty bucks. It had transmission problems. Just like those tricky approaches to YHWH on Sinai, you had to double clutch it sometimes to grind down from one gear to the next up that slippery slope. It could get ugly.

Matthew 17:1-9

Why must we pretend to know what things are
as though revelation could only be verified by knowing it ahead of time?

It is the politics of text control,
the strategy of God-containment
Self preservation. . . .

contradictions -
like this latest march of storms, the second in a week,
tripping sirens wailing
until the scudding clouds that hale the lifted warnings
