Genesis 47:27-48:7
Along with Amos' 'fat cows of Bashan' this is one of my favourite soapbox passages. Jesus did not come following the letter of the law. as he said he came to fulfil the law. The which he summarized as "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and your neighbor as yourself."
Our motivation should be love of God and as we know God's greatest love is us. Hence Jesus' little lecture about not using service to church as an excuse for neglecting family.
How much do I follow convention?
