JOSHUA 16-17:
Yesterday Caleb received his special portion
within Judah's allotment of land, and then we heard the detailed
list of Judah's boundaries and towns. Chapter 15 may be the most
challenging passage in all the Old Testament to read out
loud!
PSALM 74:
Could this psalm really have been written by
Asaph?! If so, Asaph was a prophet as he seems to describe events
that happened hundreds of years later in the Babylonian conquest.
It is possible he could have been a 100-year-old man when
writing this, speaking of the destruction caused by Pharaoh
Shishak. It must also be observed that the attributions in the
Psalms were written centuries later than the Psalms themselves and
are not to be considered part of the inspired text. (However,
I still think that Asaph was a prophet!)
ACTS 24:
A
plot was made to kill Paul. Paul's nephew “just happened” to get
wind of it. The Roman commander ordered that Paul is taken to the
governor in Caesarea.
