Psalm 88
Acts 19:21-41
Luke 4:31-37
Luke 4:31-37
37And the news about him spread throughout the surrounding area.
"Spread?"
This question is a foreign language to a Brit ordering a lunch at a sandwich joint manned by Southerners. Habitually and without a word a butter goes on our bread. Thereafter other items may be "spread" on the bread, maybe mayonnaise, or jam or honey or Marmite or Nutella. The spread will probably constitute the whole filling of the sandwich though a nice roast beef sandwich might well be enhanced with mustard - on top of the butter of course.
Spread covers the surface and gets to the edges, all parts of the bread experiencing the joy of flavor. Smoked salmon pate on fresh toast though it is passable on crackers, honey joining butter to drip through the holes of a hot toasted crumpet. Toast, or crackers or crumpet are ok by themselves but add that spread and you are transported to an epicurean world.
Thus it was with Jesus. He healed the sick and provided wine for the party and food for the crowd, even money for taxes and fish for nets. The news spread, low level and thinly but it went all over the place and the people came to Jesus to experience his bounty.
Smoked Salmon (Fish Pate)
1 stick of butter or margarine - you may not use it all
1 lemon
6 ozs smoked fish
2 tablespooons cream
I have also made this with cooked salmon, both the Nova and wood smoked salmon, smoked trout, smoked whitefish and canned salmon.
Melt the butter
put the fish in a bowl
add about half the butter and beat with a mixer to mush up the fish and blend.
Keep adding butter slowly until the mixture forms a clump.
Add some lemon juice to taste
Add a tablespoon of cream and taste to see if you want to add more
Refridgerate.
