The UK will now be charging by weight for food items such as eggs and bread rolls, rather than by the number of items in a package. Does this remind you of a certain Scripture?

Rev 6:6-"And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine."

When a laborer went into the field to labor, during the time of Jesus’ walk on the earth, the standard wage for a day’s labor was a penny a day. Of course this is not a “penny” of our day, but a coin of that day. The value of it must be measured it what it represented – Payment for a day’s labor. The rich ate wheat bread. The poor ate barley bread. A “measure” was approximately what a man with large hands could hold in his two hands cupped together. A measure would make a small loaf of bread.

This verse obviously represents sky-high inflation, but see that it shows a measurement of wheat for which one is to be charged!!

Look up, look up- our redemption draweth nigh!
