Divine Hydroponics
By Peter Leithart
Y ahweh promised Abraham a land and a seed to plant in it. He planted a vineyard and it filled the land.
Then He drive them from the land, scattered them out among the Gentiles.
“Cast your bread on the water,” Solomon says. “For you will find it after many days.” Solomon learned that from Yahweh, who scattered His seed on the Gentile sea, where they yielded a harvest, thirty-, sixty- and hundred-fold.
Call it divine hydroponics, witness to the power of God who doesn't need soil to grow His people.
