Sometimes, a chapter just has too much content. Too much insight. Too much going on. So, maybe the best thing to do is pick one sentence, and give it some thought.
Eph 4:26 Öfkelenin, ama günah işlemeyin. Öfkenizin üzerine güneş batmasın.
And, a few words:
- Öfkelenin -- Be angry
- ama -- but
- günah -- evil
- işlemeyin -- do not do.
- Öfkenizin -- Your anger
- üzerine -- upon
- güneş -- the sun
- batmasın -- do not permit to set.
Anger is a legitimate human emotion. Jesus saw the Gentiles who'd come to worship the God of Israel being crowded out of their permitted place of prayer by mercenary mercantile establishments. He went ballistic, kicked over the tables of the moneychangers, made, and applied a whip. Yet, angry people can also be irrational, if they let their anger master them.
This verse contains advice that will make a marriage happier. Make sure that conflicts are resolved before you call it a night.
