Geez another week down and no update

Something to consider on context, take for example "He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous." (Matt 5:45) Now most people this day and age take this to mean "God makes bad things happen to good people" Why? Because today rain ruins your day. However, lets pretend you live 2000 years ago and your job, your very life depends on the rain to grow crops. This statement then becomes "God (also) makes/lets good things happen to bad people"

Thus ends the lesson in context for the day.
