Episode 39: The Oxen Stumbled?\u2014The Hidden Core of Faith in This Phrase<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The phrase \u201cthe oxen stumbled\u201d appears in 1 Chronicles 13 in the New Japanese Bible 2017. How do you picture this? Perhaps you imagine oxen swaying in a procession. But when we look at the original Hebrew, the nuance is quite different. This difference is not just about word choice\u2014it conveys an essential lesson about the heart of faith.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 1. The Original Word and Its Translations\u2014\u201cStumble,\u201d \u201cSlip,\u201d or \u201cTotter\u201d?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The Hebrew verb \u05e9\u05b8\u05c1\u05de\u05b7\u05d8<\/strong> <\/strong>(sh\u0101mat)<\/strong>, according to the BDB Lexicon, means \u201cto let fall, slip, drop, or let go.\u201d It can describe both an intentional act and something that comes loose unexpectedly. In this context, it suggests not simply that the oxen wobbled, but that the load was about to slip or lose support. 2. The Core Issue\u2014What Does Breaking the Law Mean?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The real problem was not the oxen\u2019s movement but the method of transport. Using a cart was the way the Philistines returned the Ark to Israel (1 Samuel 6:7). Yet God had commanded that the Ark be carried on the shoulders of the Levites (Numbers 4; Exodus 25). Israel ignored this command and adopted a foreign practice. 3. Why Faith\u2019s Posture Matters\u2014The Foundation for Worship<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n This posture was the first thing the people needed to recover before rebuilding worship. David confessed, \u201cWe did not seek Him\u201d (1 Chronicles 15:13). This was not just a procedural error\u2014it revealed that God was not first in their hearts. True worship is not about zeal or emotional highs but about valuing God\u2019s Word and obeying it. Without this posture, worship renewal is impossible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 4. A Question for Us Today<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n This story asks us: What is your posture of faith when you come to worship? Is there a heart of obedience to God\u2019s Word\u2014or do convenience and personal preference take priority? Conclusion\u2014Faith\u2019s Posture Determines Everything<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Behind the phrase \u201cthe oxen stumbled\u201d lies a profound theme: God\u2019s holiness, obedience to His law, and the posture of faith. It\u2019s not just about words\u2014the message of Chronicles is clear: recognizing God and submitting to Him is what gives worship its true depth and richness.(\u00a9Dr. Makoto)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" \u300c\u725b\u304c\u3088\u308d\u3081\u3044\u305f\u300d\u3068\u3044\u3046\u8a00\u8449\u304c\u65b0\u6539\u8a332017\u306e1\u6b74\u4ee3\u8a8c13\u7ae0\u306b\u767b\u5834\u3057\u307e\u3059\u304c\u3001\u7686\u3055\u3093\u306f\u3053\u306e\u8868\u73fe\u3092\u3069\u3046\u611f […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_themeisle_gutenberg_block_has_review":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[8,12],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1124","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-8","category-12"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/fbi.futakotamagawa.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1124","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/fbi.futakotamagawa.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/fbi.futakotamagawa.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fbi.futakotamagawa.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fbi.futakotamagawa.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1124"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/fbi.futakotamagawa.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1124\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1125,"href":"https:\/\/fbi.futakotamagawa.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1124\/revisions\/1125"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/fbi.futakotamagawa.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1124"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fbi.futakotamagawa.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1124"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fbi.futakotamagawa.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1124"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
The Japanese term \u201cyoromeku\u201d emphasizes the oxen\u2019s own balance. The Hebrew, however, leans toward \u201cthe load slipping or coming loose,\u201d possibly due to external factors like uneven ground or the cart\u2019s movement. This nuance points to more than an accident\u2014it reveals a structural risk in using a cart at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This was not a mere logistical mistake. It showed a failure to honor God as God and to obey His instructions. The issue at stake was the posture of faith toward God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For example, when you think, \u201cI\u2019ll just watch online today,\u201d or \u201cI\u2019ll skip worship because I have an important guest,\u201d what lies beneath that choice? Worship is not for us\u2014it is for God. That\u2019s why we must return to Scripture and learn what kind of worship God desires.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
