Acts 23-24 Psalm 61 Leviticus 5-6
While Paul is in custody there is a plot to kill him and
when it becomes known to the commander, he sends Paul under guard to Felix the
Governor. You can’t help but notice this is passing on responsibility and once
again the desperation to destroy Paul is evident in their willingness to travel
and bring false charges against him. At each step it is clear that he has done
nothing worthy of death but fear of the Jews and the trouble they can stir up
to keep him in custody.
In Psalm 61 David reminds us that God is with us to the ends
of the earth and is our refuge and strength. We are to praise God forever.
In Leviticus 5 and 6 God continues to lay out the offerings
expected and their purpose. It is also once again made clear that the amount of
the offering is to be a reflection of the wealth or lack of by the one making
the offering. There is also instruction on what parts Aaron, his sons and the
other priests are to have for food and what must be burned by fire.
