December 18 O Adonai

 



O come, Adonai, Lord of might,

Who to thy tribes on Sinai’s height;

In ancient times didst give the Law

In cloud and majesty and awe.

Rejoice! Rejoice!

Emmanuel shall come to the O Israel. 


Adonai is Hebrew for Lord. 


Moses ascended Mount Sinai

And a cloud covered the mountain and there was lightning and thunder;

And God gave Moses the Law written on stone. 

The Ten Commandments. 


Jesus ascended Mount Calvary;

Not in awe but in humility. 

And Jesus gave us the New Law written with His Blood. 

The Law of Love.
