JOSHUA 18-19:
Yesterday we heard the details about Mannaseh
and Ephraim's allotment of land. I suggest that it will be very
helpful for your understanding of these chapters in Joshua to do an
Internet search for “map tribes Israel.”

PSALM 75:
Do
you remember what Paul talked to Felix about from yesterday’s
reading? Asaph’s psalm takes a similar theme today.
ACTS 25:
Paul's accusers came, and Paul defended himself
before the governor. The governor put off making a decision, and
never got around to making one. One day at the beginning of that
time, he and his Jewish wife came to listen to Paul for a little
entertainment. But Felix cut the discussion short when Paul meddled
a little too much. Paul stayed there in jail for two long years and
never gave a bribe to Felix. Finally, Felix left Paul in prison
when he was replaced by Festus.

Ps.
75:7 it is [You, O God, who are//God who is] the judge, condemning
some and acquitting others.
8
[You, Lord, hold a cup in your hand//The Lord holds a cup in his
hand], filled with the strong wine of [your//his] anger.
[You pour//He pours] it out, and all the wicked
drink it; they drink it down to the last drop.
9
But I will never stop speaking of [You, O God//the God of] Jacob or
singing praises to [You//him].

righteous will be increased.
