Yesterday we heard how Balak sent for the shaman Balaam to curse Israel, and we heard that God instead moved him to bless Israel two times. And the third sacrifice of 7 bulls and 7 rams was made.
PSALM 40:
This
is a psalm that is quoted in the New Testament. It is a great psalm
of praise which conveys many New Testament concepts. (Some of you
will perceive some differences in the NT quotes. This is because
the NT quote was taken from the Septuagint— the ancient translation
of the OT into Greek.)
ACTS 2a:
Yesterday we heard about Jesus' followers who
were waiting in Jerusalem for the promised Holy Spirit and for
power from God.
GNT Translation
note:
Ps. 40:1 I waited patiently for the Lord's
help;
[and] then he listened to me and heard my
cry.
