Better late than never?

So, I was on my way to the blog to create a post for talking about Moses' call, when something came up. What it was, I don't remember. Just like I didn't remember that I was on my way to the blog to create a post when something came up.

Actually, I do remember that the initial distraction was that I was trying to create a post from my cell phone, but didn't have the password to the blog in my memory -- cell or self.

If you would like to start a discussion on any of the facets of Moses' call from the reading last week, just add a comment here.

One statement I found interesting is that the Hebrew people, even in captivity, had elders, who apparently provided leadership to the community. In this case, elders means the older ones. I think it's likely that it took industrialization to reduce the role of elders in a society -- to the point in America, certainly, where youth has power and authority, and seniors ... they get a discount on Tuesdays at K-Mart.
