This is part of a year long reading of the Bible chronologically in a harmonized format.

• Leviticus 25:35-26:46 details laws on helping the poor, honest dealings, avoiding idolatry, Sabbath years, Jubilee redemption, and blessings/curses for obedience/disobedience.
• The Gospel sections (Mark 8:14-26; Matthew 16:13-20; Mark 8:27-30; Luke 9:18-21) cover warnings against false teaching, Peter's confession of Jesus as the Christ, and Jesus predicting his suffering.
