It's interesting how Jesus, like God, is telling them that they Will do something wrong and gives them a chance to right that wrong, but they still go through with it. Judas and Peter both are told that they will deny or turn him in and they both say that they won't and end up doing it anyway. I guess the test of our faith can be too much to handle I guess...we haven't had to experience it the way they did, but I would hope that I could withstand that and still be true.
Words of wisdom about the rich and the poor and that money does not buy your way into righteousness.

I think you are right. For many, when their faith is tested, it can be very hard to make the right decision. It does seem a repeat of behaviors and circumstances that God had with his people earlier. I think we all think we would do the righteous thing, yet when it comes down to it, we will struggle with this as well. I, like you, hope that I would be able to be true.
There was alot in this proverb. I am not sure if it's cuz I am tired or what but I didn't get much from it this round.
