JOSHUA 10-11:
The king of Ai trusted in appearances, and was defeated. And the leaders of Israel trusted in appearances and failed to ask God for guidance, leading to a problem that would later cause more pain.

PSALM 71:
This is a poem written by an senior citizen with examples for our prayers that are appropriate for ‘youth’ of all ages.

ACTS 22:
In the last part of Acts 21, people from the Roman province of Asia recognized Paul and started a riot in the temple. Paul was arrested and now gives his speech to the angry mob.

Translation note:
In several places in Luke’s writings irony is unmarked, but would have been understood by readers of his day. (The situation in chapter 22 was not one in which a Roman commander would have started
sharing about his personal life!)

Verse 28a can be translated like this: The commander scoffed, “Oh yeah, I’ve heard that one before! Now you’re gonna say, ‘It cost me plenty to buy my citizenship.’”
