Deuteronomy 20 speaks of laws covering the behaviour of the Israelites in warfare. The priests were to stimulate the courage of the Israelites as they were about to enter into battle. If any man had married recently he would be allowed a year off before joining the army. Similarly anyone would be allowed to partake of their first fruits before enlisting for active army service. Yahweh would fight for His host; however if anyone in the nation was fearful, or doubted their Omnipotent Sovereign's ability to deliver His people then that person was to be sent home so as to not damage the morale of his comrades. For nations other than the seven Canaanitish nations terms of peace were to be offered and if accepted that nation would become a tributary nation. Should terms of peace be rejected then siege would be made, the males of that city would be destroyed and the spoil taken by the Israelites. As for the Canaanitish nations no quarter was to be shown to them, but they were to be totally destroyed. Israel was commanded that during the siege timber could be taken from any tree except fruit trees.
Ecclesiastes 12 verses 1-8 instruct us to remember our Creator is the days of our youth. For, says the wise man, the time will come when every desire fails - this he terms the evil day. Those of us who are aging rapidly feel that day encroaching too rapidly.
Verses 2 describe the aging process and the declining of the body in a series of graphic and frightening metaphors. Verse 2 speaks of the inability to distinguish light from night and as the bodily heat becomes lost to know what season the aging person is in. Verse 3 tells of the enfeebling of the arms and legs. The same verse tells of the decaying of the teeth and their falling out; and of failing eyesight. Verse 4 is describing the loss of interest in anything external to themselves and the failure to experience stimulation through music and other past delights. Verse 5 describes the anxiety that accompanies aging - everything is an insurmountable trouble. The aged person is resembling a crippled grasshopper dragging itself by its front legs. There is no longer pleasure in anything and the decrepit individual cannot wait for death to come. Verse 6 speaks of the instability of the spine; of the failure of the brain to function; and of the breakdown of the heart. Verse 7 speaks of the end - the body returns to the dust from which it came (Genesis 2:7; 3:17-19). And so, says Solomon, life as an end in itself is entirely meaningless. Verses 9-12 describe the Preacher's exertions to reach wise ways in which there will profit and as assurance of a future. Wise counsel will result in responding to the Almighty and walking in His ways. He will goad us and guide us in the paths of righteousness. God is the Great Shepherd whose Word is firm and His counsel unfailing. And so concludes the Assembler of wise sayings - Koheleth, or the Preacher - in verses 13-14 that the whole, complete, man is the one who reverences God and walks in the way of His commandments.
Acts 11 commences with Peter being caused to justify why he baptised Gentiles. We next have a description of the progress of the truth in Antioch in the province of Syria, where believers were first derisively called 'Christians'. One
of these faithful believers is a prophet named Agabus. He prophesies of a great famine that would affect the entire Roman world. The disciples of Antioch start a fund to help Judean believers, who were greatly affected and in dire need.
In Acts 12 Herod Antipas kills the Apostle James - the year was AD 44. Seeing how much this delighted the Jews Herod has Peter arrested for execution after Passover. Despite being securely chained between guards the angel of the Lord causes a deep sleep to overcome the guards and releases Peter. Peter proceeds to the house where the ecclesia is gathered to pray for his deliverance. A maid named Rhoda answers the door and runs to tell the disciples that Peter was outside. Rhoda is told that she must be mistaken. The disciples say that it must be Peter's "messenger" (Greek angelos- angel). Peter is admitted to the house and he recounts how he had been delivered. James, the half brother of Jesus. was informed and told Peter to secretly depart to a different location where he cannot be found. Herod kills the guards (verses 20-23). The chapter concludes with an account of Herod's narcissistic claims and his being smitten with dysentery by the angel of God and Herod dying verses 20-23. Nonetheless the Word of God exceedingly prevails.

Deuteronomy 19 commences in verses 1-13 with the regulations for the protection of the unwitting man slayer and the provision by Israel's Sovereign of cities for refuge for these people. An example of the innocent manslayer is given by the flying of a loose axe head unfortunately killing a man, ie an innocent person be slain by an unintended accident. So the LORD provides rules to prevent the avenging of death. Cities are provided for protecting the innocent. Once within the gates of one of these cities the one who flees for his/her life is under divine protection. The persons seeking refuge are to stay within those locations until the death of the High Priest. We are all unwillingly guilty of requiring the death of our Lord Jesus Christ. However in him we have continuing refuge because our High Priest lives for ever. Read Hebrews 11:16; 13:10-16. If the cities of God's provision were not enough an additional three cities could be added. Verses 11-13 tells that the Almighty's gracious provision did not include the protection of the murderer. Verse 14 declares that the boundaries within the Promised Land could not be changed. The inheritance of each family was protected by their Almighty Redeemer. Verses 15-21 describe the necessity for witnesses to act from integrity and not from self interest. No judgment is to be made without a minimum of two to three witnesses. A false witness stood condemned by their own evil intentions and was to receive the penalty that had been sought against the accused party. Such a just law was ensuring the preserving of integrity among God's people.
Chapter 11 of Ecclesiastes continues the theme of wise and foolish actions always have consequences. Therefore act from wisdom and the best outcomes will follow. Verse 1 counsels generosity and providing for future benefit. Verses 2-3 remind us that in life often what happens is beyond our control so we need to gracefully accept and submit ourselves to our Almighty Creator. Verse 4 tells us not to find excuses for our own idleness. Verse 6 speaks of the fact that our all wise Maker acts in His wisdom. So trust Him! Verse 6-9 encourage faithfulness and diligence in our service to our Father. The chapter and section concludes with a reminder of the futility of a life without God.
Acts 8 saw the conversion of a descendant of Ham; chapter 9 of Shem; and chapter 10 of Japheth - part of the pattern of taking the gospel to the entire world - as outlined in chapter 1. The first four verses of Acts 10 tell us of a model proselyte in every respect apart from his ignorance of the gospel, and his need of baptism for the forgiveness of his sins. Cornelius is commanded to send for Peter. Whilst in Joppa Peter had gone to the rooftop to pray. In a hungry state he falls into a trance and is given a vision of all kinds of animals - clean and unclean ie ceremonially. If Peter truly had such scruples why was he lodging with a tanner ie a maker of leather goods who is always surrounded by dead animals that are tanned to produce leather. Three times Peter is commanded to, "rise, kill and eat"; but three times refuses. On the second occasion Peter is told, "Don't call what God has cleansed unclean". Whilst Peter is thinking about the vision he is summoned by three men seeking his company. The visitors tell Peter of the command which the angel had issued to Cornelius. These three men are lodged and leave for Caesarea the following day. Chapter 11 says that Peter expected some resistance to what could transpire from Jewish converts and so he is accompanied by six faithful Jewish brothers. Cornelius humbly receives Peter, who refused to be honoured. Cornelius reiterates his command from the angel. Peter responds in verses 34-43 by beginning with the vital point that "God is impartial and the basis of His acceptance is a reverence for the Almighty and an attempt to follow in His righteous ways". In verse 38 Peter reveals the Christ to those assembled as the Word attested to by the Father in the supporting of Christ's words with miracles. As Peter continues speaking the Holy Spirit comes on Cornelius' household just like it came on the Apostles in Acts 2. Peter asks his amazed companions if they could in all conscience forbid baptism. Since they couldn't Peter commanded Cornelius and his household to be baptised. The bestowal of the Holy Spirit and immediate baptism thereafter demonstrate that he believed the gospel acceptably to the Father. The Almighty chooses His children and often shows that by subsequent events: 2 Timothy 2:19.
