Mark 14:26
After the Last Supper, when Jesus and his disciples sang a hymn, they didn't just wrap-up an evening of sharing bread and wine—they were embracing a profound moment! This hymn likely contained rich traditional Jewish sentiments. Traditionally, the Hallel is sung during Passover, comprised of Psalms 113 to 118, and it's all about praise, thanksgiving, and divine salvation, recalling God’s past acts of redemption.
Imagine the atmosphere! The disciples, filled with a mix of solemnity and joy, gathered for their impassioned worship. Singing would elevate their spirits as they prepared for the uncertainty ahead. It's quite fascinating that this harmonious send-off happens in perhaps one of the most poignant moments in scripture. Instead of overwhelming fear or despair about what's to come, there's this uplifting act of devotion—a true echo of faith.
Interestingly, music and singing hold ancient power—a theme present throughout the Bible and Jewish tradition. In virtually every pivotal moment from Exodus (think about the Song of Moses) to the Book of Psalms, we find music shaping worship and expression of the heart. Jesus's decision to sing could perhaps inspire us to see the value in finding joy, even in the most challenging life moments.
This hidden proxy moment widens our understanding of their relationship; community, support, and faith all combined in melody before facing the heartbreak of separation looming on the horizon. It makes you reflect on the power of song in our own lives, doesn’t it?
