Today, in reading Mark 3:14, from the Tree of Life Translation of God’s Holy Word, these words penetrated and even invigorated my mind:
"He [Yeshua / Jesus] appointed twelve (who He also named "EMMISARIES") so that they might be with Him and He might send them to proclaim the Good News…"
Love that word "emissary" -- envoy, ambassador, diplomat, delegate, attaché, minister, agent, representative, deputy, factor, proxy, suragate, liaison, messager, courier, herald, apostle.
The synonym for "emmisary", "proxy" really touched me deeply. A "proxy" is someone given authority to represent Someone else!" Wow!
Penetrating, indeed! Invigorating, as well!
