As we were talking about Jesus the riddler in our remembering of the Bible Kay Alberg reminded us that the the word riddle is not just about wordplay and verbal interaction but that it also mean to sift soil. So we have a new kenning that perhaps also speaks about Jesus the soil sifter, lakeside drifter - Jesus the riddler.
Anyway this morning as I woke up I was thinking that soil sifter went rather well with the kenning I received on the first evening - tomb quitter but soil sifter also made me think of the person searching for buried treasure in a field. We are God's soil sifters as we search for and workk for the kingdom.
