Today’s lectionary reading:
Genesis 18:1-9

What did the angels ask Abraham?

The Lord appeared to Abraham near the great trees of Mamre while he was sitting at the entrance to his tent in the heat of the day. Abraham looked up and saw three men standing nearby. When he saw them, he hurried from the entrance of his tent to meet them and bowed low to the ground.

He said, "If I have found favour in your eyes, my lord, do not pass your servant by. Let a little water be brought, and then you may all wash your feet and rest under this tree. Let me get you something to eat, so you can be refreshed and then go on your way—now that you have come to your servant."

"Very well," they answered, "do as you say."

So Abraham hurried into the tent to Sarah. "Quick," he said, "get three seahs of fine flour and knead it and bake some bread."

Then he ran to the herd and selected a choice, tender calf and gave it to a servant, who hurried to prepare it. He then brought some curds and milk and the calf that had been prepared, and set these before them. While they ate, he stood near them under a tree.

They asked him:


a) ”Would it surprise you to know we have never heard the phrase ‘bake some bread’ used in association with the word ‘quick’ before?

b) “Would you like a copy of the Government Ministry of Health leaflet No 317: Five A Day – Why You Shouldn’t Forget The Vegetables?”

c) “That was delicious – may we have the recipe for our forthcoming Say It With Flour cookbook?”

d) "Where is your wife Sarah?"

e) “Where is your wife, Abraham?”

f) “The dry bread and boiled veal with yoghourt and tepid milk was absolutely lovely but will you mind very much if we don’t stay for dessert?”
