Scripture was never meant to be rushed.
Neither was a good cup of coffee.
Bethany is a decaf roast: mellow, smooth, and savory. It's named for the town of Mary and Martha (John 11:1). Luke records a visit to their home without naming the village:
"Now it came to pass, as they went, that he entered into a certain village: and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house. And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at Jesus' feet, and heard his word." Luke 10:38-39 (KJV)
Made for a later cup, when there is time to sit and listen.
