Acts commentaries for pastors are listed below. Some were written in the traditional commentary style, while others read more like printed sermons. This kind of Bible commentary is helpful to preachers and teachers, yet can be used by lay Christians such as those who are leading Bible studies or small groups. Since this kind of Bible commentary emphasizes application, the volumes below are also great as devotional aides.
To see the top Acts commentaries in any style — e.g. preaching focus, theological insight, exposition, technical, social background, original language — please follow the link provided.
Bible Commentaries for Preaching and Teaching
Acts (NIV Application Commentary) by Ajith Fernando
Reviews and Accolades:
Tom Schreiner: recommended; "a clear exposition with helpful application"
Craig Blomberg, etal: a "priority" commentary on Acts
D.A. Carson: "very good"
Approach to Scripture: evangelical
Best for: expository preachers, Bible college and seminary students, church elders and teachers, experienced Bible readers
Purpose: From the General Editor: The primary goal of the NIV Application Commentary Series is to help you with the difficult but vital task of bringing an ancient message into a modern context. The series not only focuses on application as a finished product but also helps you think through the process of moving from the original meaning of a passage to its contemporary significance. These are commentaries, not popular expositions. They are works of reference, not devotional literature." See more about the NIV Application Commentary series.
Acts (St. Andrews Expositional Commentary) by R.C. Sproul
Reviews and Accolades:
D.A. Carson: "offers many stimulating suggestions for the preacher"
Approach to Scripture: evangelical
Best for: individual study, devotional reading, Bible studies, adult Sunday school classes
Purpose: From Dr. Sproul: The St. Andrews Expositional Commentary series "is a written record of my preaching labors amidst my beloved Sanford congregation. The dear saints who sit under my preaching encouraged me to give my sermons a broader hearing. To that end, the chapters that follow were adapted from a sermon series I preached at St. Andrews."
Acts (Reformed Expositional Commentary) by Derek W.H. Thomas
Best for: individual study, devotional reading, Bible studies, adult Sunday school classes
Approach to Scripture: evangelical
Purpose: From the publisher: The REC series has "four fundamental commitments. First, these commentaries aim to be biblical…Second, these commentaries are unashamedly doctrinal…Third, these commentaries are redemptive-historical…Fourth, these commentaries are practical…" All authors are "pastor-scholars." See more about the Reformed Expository Commentary series.
Acts (Preaching the Word) by R. Kent Hughes
Approach to Scripture: evangelical
Purpose: From the publisher: "For years, Crossway's Preaching the Word commentary series has helped pastors, preachers, and anyone who teaches God's Word to better interpret and apply the message of the Bible. Under the careful editorial oversight of experienced pastor and best-selling author R. Kent Hughes, this series is known for its commitment to biblical authority, its pastoral tone and focus, and its overall accessibility." See more about the Preaching the Word commentary series.
Acts (The Story of God Bible Commentary) by Dean Pinter
Interview: See Best Bible Commentaries' interview with Dean Pinter on this volume
Purpose: A new commentary for today's world, The Story of God Bible Commentary explains and illuminates each passage of Scripture in light of the Bible's grand story. The first commentary series to do so, SGBC offers a clear and compelling exposition of biblical texts, guiding readers in how to creatively and faithfully live out the Bible in their own contexts. Its story-centric approach is idea for pastors, students, Sunday school teachers, and all who want to understand the Bible in today's world.
Acts (Interpretation: A Bible Commentary for Teaching and Preaching) by William H. Willimon
Purpose: From the publisher: "This series of commentaries offers an interpretation of the books of the Bible. It is designed to meet the need of students, teachers, ministers, and priests for a contemporary expository commentary. These volumes will not replace the historical critical commentary or homiletical aids to preaching. The purpose of this series is rather to provide a third kind of resource, a commentary which presents the integrated result of historical and theological work with the biblical text." See more about the Interpretation Bible commentary series.
Acts (Christ-Centered Exposition) by Tony Merida
Approach to Scripture: evangelical
Purpose: From the publisher: This series "takes a Christ-centered approach to expositing each book of the Bible. Rather than a verse-by-verse approach, the authors have crafted chapters that explain and apply key passages in their assigned Bible books. Readers will learn to see Christ in all aspects of Scripture, and they will be encouraged by the devotional nature of each exposition presented as sermons and divided into chapters that conclude with a "Reflect and Discuss" section, making this series ideal for small group study, personal devotion, and even sermon preparation. It's not academic but rather presents an easy reading, practical and friendly commentary." See more about the Christ-Centered Exposition Commentary series.
Acts (For Everyone) by N.T. Wright
Purpose: From the publisher: "N.T. 'Tom' Wright has undertaken a tremendous task: to provide guides to all the books of the New Testament, and to include in them his own translation of the entire text. Each short passage is followed by a highly readable discussion, with background information, useful explanations and suggestions, and thoughts as to how the text can be relevant to our lives today. A glossary is included at the end of each volume."
The Book of Acts: A Commentary by C. Peter Wagner
Purpose: From the author: "Experience Pentecost… Acts was designed to be God's training manual for Christians. It worked in the early church and it works in the postmodern world. Join noted author, scholar and practitioner C. Peter Wagner as he journeys through the entire text of the book of Acts, uncovering all of the major themes and illuminating what we can learn for our present situations. For Christians desiring a deeper knowledge of the Bible and, specifically, understanding of the book of Acts, this exciting book will bring new intimacy with the Spirit and new joy in doing His will."
Acts (Zondervan Illustrated Bible Background Commentary) by Clinton E. Arnold
Approach to Scripture: evangelical
Purpose: From the publisher: This series "walks you verse by verse through all the books of the New Testament. It's like slipping on a set of glasses that lets you read the Bible through the eyes of a first-century reader! Discoveries await you that will snap the world of the New Testament into gripping immediacy. Things that seem mystifying, puzzling, or obscure will take on tremendous meaning when you view them in their ancient context. You'll deepen your understanding of the teachings of Jesus." See more about the Zondervan Illustrated Bible Backgrounds Commentary series.
Commentaries by Well-Known Pastors
Acts (MacArthur New Testament Commentary) by John MacArthur
Approach to Scripture: evangelical
Purpose: From the publisher: "If you're familiar with John MacArthur's in-depth Bible teaching, you have an idea of what you'll find in The MacArthur New Testament Commentary. The commentary takes you deep into each passage, verse by verse—sometimes word by word. It's like having a Bible teacher sitting next to you as you study Scripture."
Acts: An Expositional Commentary by James Montgomery Boice
Approach to Scripture: evangelical
Purpose: From the publisher: "James Montgomery Boice (1938-2000) was senior pastor of Tenth Presbyterian Church in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He was also president and cofounder of the Alliance of Confessing Evangelicals, the parent organization of The Bible Study Hour on which Boice was a speaker for more than thirty years…Boice has created a unique blend of scripture insight, rich devotional application, and vivid illustration in this commentary."
Acts (Thru the Bible Commentary Series) by J. Vernon McGee
Approach to Scripture: evangelical
Best for: individual study, devotional reading, Bible studies, adult Sunday school classes
Purpose: From the publisher: "Radio messages from J. Vernon McGee delighted and enthralled listeners for years with simple, straightforward language and clear understanding of the Scripture. Now enjoy his personable, yet scholarly, style in a 60-volume set of commentaries that takes you from Genesis to Revelation with new understanding and insight."
Acts by Charles Swindoll
Approach to Scripture: evangelical
Best for: individual study, devotional reading, Bible studies, adult Sunday school classes
Purpose: From the publisher: Mark's Gospel is fast-paced and action-packed. In this volume, Chuck unpacks both Jesus' story and how Mark wants his readers to see themselves in this story. "From beginning to end, we will see the Master preparing His disciples and then propelling them forward to encounter challenges they felt ill-prepared to meet."

One figure lies bandaged and unconscious on a hospital bed, while another stands over her, pale blue and translucent. The body never moves, but her spirit can still run, leap, and fly through a mental maze to regain her life and memories.
This is the affecting premise of Cloudbuilt, a 3D platformer from Coilworks and Rising Star Games available Thursday on PC. You play as a war veteran whose body is broken but spirit remains nimble. To piece together her past and help her recovery, you guide her spirit through incredibly complex obstacle courses full of massive jumps, laser barriers, and gun turrets.
If you've already received a basic education in wall-scrambling parkour through games like Mirror's Edge (and more recently, Titanfall), you'll find that Cloubuilt is like an advanced degree. You're given a limited number of lives, which can increase when you beat an oppressively difficult time limit on each level, and the checkpoints on each map are located very far apart. When you nail that perfect combination of rocket-assisted double jumps, wall runs, and speed boosts, you'll find yourself standing atop a sprawling structure with a real sense of accomplishment.
Even better, you can mix up your runs by taking alternate routes. Nearly every stretch of obstacles has another way around. One section might have you timing your jumps across platforms buzzing with purple electricity, but if you search closely, you'll find walls placed over a narrow corridor that you can run along instead.
When playing Cloudbuilt, you're not just controlling the actions of a character in a dream – the game's intense challenge forces you into a concentrated state that make you feel like you're the one who's dreaming. Soaring over the course and steering to land on a narrow platform can induce vertigo. Missing that platform and falling to your death feels like the sudden start of waking up.
Not only is the game challenging, but if you play it as intended, it's blisteringly fast. Your character snaps into action with the slightest press of the keyboard, and she nimbly grabs onto ledges before you even know they're there. You can choose to take your time, but the pulsing soundtrack and time limit urge you to move ahead quickly.
Its rapid movements and fantasy level designs make playing Cloudbuilt a dreamlike experience. Shutting it down and returning to your desktop feels like waking up – you'll rub your eyes and wonder where the time went while your memory stays fixated on the feeling of climbing and falling.

I jumped on this piece as soon as I saw it posted for sale on a Facebook sale site.
I don't usually go for the previously painted pieces, but I just liked the shape and size of this old gal.
I could envision this sloppily painted boring buffet made over into something very beautiful.
The lower legs of the buffet had been chewed by a puppy so I had to spend some time filling those damaged legs with wood filler and sanding them out before painting which was a big improvement fro where we began.
I knew she had imperfections, but I loved her anyway!
It just so happened that I had a client who was searching for a buffet!
I sent her this picture and she was all IN!
So…after considering many colors, she decided upon a deep, rich grey.
We went with a color by Amy Howard One Step Paint called "A Good Man is Hard to Find" – honestly that's the name.
I couldn't make this stuff up.
This was my first time using Amy Howard products and I was pleasantly surprised how much I liked them.
I wanted a chalk paint as I needed to paint over a previously painted piece so this was a great choice!
I distressed her which revealed the white below and I really love how she came out!
A little clear wax and she was all done.
I did add some gorgeous cut glass knobs from D. Lawless Hardware as those frog pulls weren't doing it for me.
I adore it now!
It's smoky and sophisticated!
Isn't she lovely!
It's a true BEAST to BEAUTY makeover:)

Follow the manufacturers' fitting instructions
Brief installation instructions for fitting door thresholds sold on our website can be found on the individual product pages. For some products there are also product videos featured.
Expert installers
If you are unsure how to fit a product, it is recommended that you use the services of an expert flooring fitter.
Use the correct tools
Always use a sharp hack-saw to cut door thresholds and floor trims to size.
Once cut or fitted, it is not possible to return your product. Please see our full terms of business.
Underfloor heating
Check for underfloor heating before screwing into a floor.
Protective tape
Remove any surface, protective tape only once the installation is completed and then wipe with a dry cloth to remove any finger marks.
Cover plates
These fit over the top of the join between two floor-coverings and protect the edges of both. There is no spiked, base section to hold the carpet firm and therefore any carpet will require fixing with an alternative method e.g. gripper. Choose a suitable width of plate to sufficiently cover this area.
Under-carpet base section
These are an integral part of thresholds designed to join carpet. They fit under the carpet and are therefore hidden from view. Teeth punched into the base section grip and hold the carpet, helping to keep it under tension. The base section of the threshold needs to be securely attached to the floor using a traditional screw in method or a special flooring fixative.
Fitting door thresholds with self-adhesive tape
Prior to removing the backing tape, ensure all surfaces are clean, free of dirt, dust, paint and grease. Measure up and cut the threshold or trim to measure, before removing the backing tape.
Floating floors
If one or more of your floor-coverings to be joined is floating (expands and contracts e.g. some woods and laminates), then you will need to use a floor trim designed for floating floors e.g. Premier Euro Floating, AL/AC38SF, Premier Ramps, Premier Compression Ramps.

The governor of West Java, Ahmad Heryawan or Kang Aher, come to UIN Jakarta on Friday (7/15). He is invited to give a speech at UIN Jakarta halal bi halal event. He was greeted warmly by the Civitas Academica of UIN Jakarta who had been in the Harun Nasution auditorium since 08:00 AM. Kang Aher had just arrived on campus UIN Jakarta at 08.30 by using his official vehicles, plated D 1001 PN. He was accompanied by the local administration's working unit (SKPD) and escorted by the police.
On his arrival at the Rectorate building, he was immediately greeted the by Rector of UIN Jakarta Prof Dr. Dede Rosyada and the Mayor of South Tangerang, Airin Rachmi Diany. After half an hour, he immediately went to the venue and gave a speech for about an hour.
After the speech, he interacted with the leaders of UIN Jakarta in the Uni Club while enjoying typical Eid dishes, ketupat, and opor ayam. Then, he met with some journalists, including UIN News for an interview session. After the interview, he did not immediately return to Bandung. He chose to do the Friday prayer in Al-Jami'ah mosque located at the student center of UIN Jakarta, along with the civitas academica. "I seem to feel comfortable here,†he said.
After the Friday Prayer, Kang Aher was still on campus. Kang Aher even had time to take the pictures with some jamaah.
At 01:00 PM, Kang Aher accompanied by his aides is back to the rectorate building, going home? Not yet. He invites the Rector to see the land owned by the Government of West Java province on campus two which is currently used as the Faculty of Social and Political Sciences (FISIP). The land is granted by the provincial government of West Java to UIN Jakarta for the sake of education. There is also a building known as Wisma Kertamukti. The building previously had functioned as a liaison office or a representative of The West Java Government in DKI Jakarta. Kang Aher also gets an explanation from the rector about the land and the building. After that, Kang Aher then excused himself and returned to his office in Bandung.
Compared to some other governors who've come to the campus UIN Jakarta, Kang Aher was the governor who has the most time on campus visits. He spent five hours in UIN Jakarta. The other governors who have ever visited UIN Jakarta are Ratu Atut Chosiyah in 2007. She spent for about three hours. Followed by the former Governor of DKI Jakarta, Joko Widodo (2013) and the Governor of Banten, Rano Karno (April 2016), which respectively spent only about two hours.
The visit of the former governor of Banten Ratu Atut Chosiyah and the former governor of DKI Jakarta, Joko Widodo (now President of Indonesia) to UIN Jakarta is to give halal bi halal speeches. Meanwhile, the current Governor of Banten, Rano Karno is invited to give a briefing for the Community Service Program (KKN) participants. (ika p/njs/ns/umar)

An Old Secret
Title: An Old Secret
Creator: Leslie McCaddon
Category: Time
Creator Commentary:
When we are children we assume we know all there is to know about our parents. There is a certain rite of passage as we start to see our parents as whole and separate human beings with lives, and even secrets, we know nothing about. This piece of flash fiction is about a young girl discovering her mother may not have been her father's first love.
Creator Bio:
Leslie McCaddon is a junior in the creative writing program. She is a widow raising three children of her own plus four bonus children who technically belong to her widower fiance, but she isn't one to be governed by technicalities. She loves to write about families, grief and injustice. When she's not writing, socializing or doing homework, she's most likely at Disneyland.

Day Three : Riberalta
I woke up for my second day in sunny Riberalta and braved a motorbike taxi ride back to the ARCA Maranatha Deaf School where I met with Ricky – one of their teachers.
Ricky was the first person to go through ARCA and to go right through High School with the help of a translator. He now teaches at the school and his enthusiasm has helped Andreas Kolb recruit many new members of staff and provide out-reach into the surrounding community.
With Carol translating Ricky's sign language, she helped me understand just how hard the staff at ARCA have worked to maintain the school and to help its pupils.
Day Two : Riberalta
After another early start, I managed to get my flight on to Riberalta, which saw me travelling further north in Bolivia. My next stop would be the Arca Maranatha Deaf School.
When I arrived, I was met by the head of the school, Andreas Kolb (who is deaf himself) and his assistant Carol. They were thoughtful in coming to the airport to welcome me because I didn't realise that car taxis are unheard of in Riberalta. I would have had to balance my suitcase and camera equipment on the back of a motorbike, so I fully appreciated their offer of a lift!
The school was lovely – teaching around 30-40 pupils in the morning classes and running workshops and classes in the evenings for the older students, parents and trainee teachers.

<Strong's # > - 10 I will greatly rejoice <07797>
in the LORD <03068>, my
soul <05315> shall be joyful <01523> in my God <0430>;...

TEV - "The Good News of Deliverance" - 8 The LORD says, "I love justice and I hate oppression and crime. I will faithfully reward my people And make an eternal covenant with them. 9 They will be famous among the nations; Everyone who sees them will know That they are a people whom I have blessed." 10 Jerusalem [<05315>] rejoices because of what the LORD has done. She is like a bride dressed for her wedding. God has clothed her with salvation and victory. 11 As surely as seeds sprout and grow, The Sovereign LORD will save his people, And all the nations will praise him.

KJV w/Strong's # - 1 Make a joyful <07321> noise <07321> unto God <0430>, all <03605> ye lands <0776>: 2 Sing <02167> forth the honour <03519> of his name <08034>: make <07760> his praise <08416> glorious <03519>.
8 O bless <01288> our God <0430>, ye people <05971>, and make the voice <06963> of his praise <08416> to be heard <08085>: 9 Which holdeth <07760> our soul <05315> in life <02416>, and suffereth <05414> not our feet <07373> to be moved <04132>.
16 Come <03212> [and]
hear, all <03605> ye that fear <03373> God <0430>, and I will
declare <05608> what <0834> he hath done <06213> for my
soul <05315>. 17 I cried <07121> unto him with my mouth <06310>,
and he was extolled <07318> with my tongue <03956>. 18 If <0518>
I regard <07200> iniquity <0205> in my heart <03820>, the
Lord <0136> will not hear <08085> [me]: 19 [But] verily <0403>
God <0430> hath heard <08085> [me]; he hath attended <07181>
to the voice <06963> of my prayer <08605>. 20 Blessed <01288>
[be] God <0430>, which <0834> hath not turned <05493> away
my prayer <08605>, nor his mercy <02617> from me.
NRSV - 1 Make a joyful noise to God, all the earth; 2 sing the glory of his name; give to him glorious praise.
8 Bless our God, O peoples, let the sound of his praise be heard, 9 who has kept us among the living, and has not let our feet slip.
16 Come and hear, all
you who fear God, and I will tell what he has done for me.
17 I cried aloud to him, and he was extolled with my tongue. 18 If I had cherished
iniquity in my heart, the Lord would not have listened. 19 But truly God has
listened; he has given heed to the words of my prayer. 20 Blessed be God, because
he has not rejected my prayer or removed his steadfast love from me.
TEV - "A Song of Praise and Thanksgiving" - 1 Praise God with shouts of joy, all people! 2 Sing to the glory of his name; offer him glorious praise! 3 Say to God, "How wonderful are the things you do! Your power is so great that your enemies bow down in fear before you. 4 Everyone on earth worships you; they sing praises to you, they sing praises to your name." 5 Come and see what God has done, his wonderful acts among men. 6 He changed the sea into dry land; our ancestors crossed the river on foot. There we rejoiced because of what he did. 7 He rules forever by his might and keeps his eyes on the nations. Let no rebels rise against him. 8 Praise our God, all nations; let your praise be heard. 9 He has kept us alive and has not allowed us to fall.
13 I will bring burnt offerings to your house; I will offer you what I promised. 14 I will give you what I said I would when I was in trouble. 15 I will offer sheep to be burned on the altar; I will sacrifice bulls and goats, and the smoke will go up to the sky. 16 Come and listen, all who honor God, and I will tell you what he has done for me. 17 I cried to him for help; I praised him with songs. 18 If I had ignored my sins, the Lord would not have listened to me. 19 But God has indeed heard me; he has listened to my prayer. 20 I praise God, because he did not reject my prayer or keep back his constant love from me.

|B1 - Psa 34
KJV w/Strong's # - 2 My soul <05315> shall make her boast <01984> in the LORD <03068>: the humble <06041> shall hear <08085> [thereof], and be glad <08056>. 3 O magnify <01431> the LORD <03068> with me, and let us exalt <07311> his name <08034> together <03162>.
8 O taste <02938> and see <07200> that the LORD <03068> [is] good <02896>: blessed <0835> [is] the man <01397> [that] trusteth <02620> in him.
12 What <04310> man <0376> [is he that] desireth <02655> life <02416>, [and] loveth <0157> [many] days <03117>, that he may see <07200> good <02896>?
14 Depart <05493> from evil <07451>, and do <06213> good <02896>; seek <01245> peace <07965>, and pursue <07291> it. 15 The eyes <05869> of the LORD <03068> [are] upon the righteous <06662>, and his ears <0241> [are open] unto their cry <07775>.
22 The LORD <03068>
redeemeth <06299> the
soul <05315> of his servants <05650>: and none <03808>
of them that trust <02620> in him shall be desolate <0816>.
NRSV - 2 My soul makes its boast in the LORD; let the humble hear and be glad. 3 O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt his name together.
8 O taste and see that the LORD is good; happy are those who take refuge in him.
12 Which of you desires life, and covets many days to enjoy good?
14 Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it. 15 The eyes of the LORD are on the righteous, and his ears are open to their cry.
22 The LORD redeems the
life of his servants; none of those who take refuge in him will be condemned.
TEV - "In Praise of God's Goodness" - 1 I will always thank the LORD; I will never stop praising him. 2 I will praise him for what he has done; may all who are oppressed listen and be glad! 3 Proclaim with me the LORD's greatness; let us praise his name together! 4 I prayed to the LORD, and he answered me; he freed me from all my fears. 5 The oppressed look to him and are glad; they will never be disappointed. 6 The helpless call to him, and he answers; he saves them from all their troubles. 7 His angel guards those who honor the LORD and rescues them from danger. 8 Find out for yourself how good the LORD is. Happy are those who find safety with him. 9 Honor the LORD, all his people; those who obey him have all they need. 10 Even lions go hungry for lack of food, but those who obey the LORD lack nothing good. 11 Come, my young friends, and listen to me, and I will teach you to honor the LORD. 12 Would you like to enjoy life? Do you want long life and happiness? 13 Then keep from speaking evil and from telling lies. 14 Turn away from evil and do good; strive for peace with all your heart. 15 The LORD watches over the righteous and listens to their cries; 16 but he opposes those who do evil, so that when they die, they are soon forgotten. 17 The righteous call to the LORD, and he listens; he rescues them from all their troubles. 18 The LORD is near to those who are discouraged; he saves those who have lost all hope. 19 The good man suffers many troubles, but the LORD saves him from them all; 20 the LORD preserves him completely; not one of his bones is broken. 21 Evil will kill the wicked; those who hate the righteous will be punished. 22 The LORD will save [<05315>] his people; those who go to him for protection will be spared.

KJV w/Strong's # - 7 The law <08451> of the LORD <03068> [is] perfect <08549>, converting <07725> the soul <05315>: the testimony <05715> of the LORD <03068> [is] sure <0539>, making wise <02449> the simple <06612>. 8 The statutes <06490> of the LORD <03068> [are] right <03477>, rejoicing <08055> the heart <03820>: the commandment <04687> of the LORD <03068> [is] pure <01249>, enlightening <0215> the eyes <05869>.
NRSV - 7 The law of the LORD is perfect, reviving the soul; the decrees of the LORD are sure, making wise the simple; 8 the precepts of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of the LORD is clear, enlightening the eyes;
TEV - "The Law of the LORD" - 7 The law of the LORD is perfect; it gives [<05315>] new strength. The commands of the LORD are trustworthy, giving wisdom to those who lack it. 8 The laws of the LORD are right, and those who obey them are happy. The commands of the LORD are just and give understanding to the mind. 9 Reverence for the LORD is good; it will continue forever. The judgments of the LORD are just; they are always fair. 10 They are more desirable than the finest gold; they are sweeter than the purest honey.
|B3 - Psa 89
KJV w/Strong's # - 1 I will sing <07891> of the mercies <02617> of the LORD <03068> for ever <05769>: with my mouth <06310> will I make known <03045> thy faithfulness <0530> to all generations <01755>.
15 Blessed <0835>
[is] the people <05971> that know <03045> the joyful <08643>
sound <08643>: they shall walk <01980>, O LORD <03068>, in
the light <0216> of thy countenance <06440>. 16 In thy name <08034>
shall they rejoice <01523> all <03605> the day <03117>: and
in thy righteousness <06666> shall they be exalted <07311>. 17 For
thou [art] the glory <08597> of their strength <05797>: and in thy
favour <07522> our horn <07161> shall be exalted <07311>.
NRSV - 1 I will sing of your steadfast love, O LORD, forever; with my mouth I will proclaim your faithfulness to all generations.
15 Happy are the people
who know the festal shout, who walk, O LORD, in the light of your countenance;
16 they exult in your name all day long, and extol your righteousness. 17 For
you are the glory of their strength; by your favor our horn is exalted.
TEV - "A Hymn in Time of National Trouble" - 1 O LORD, I will always sing of your constant love; I will proclaim your faithfulness forever. 2 I know that your love will last for all time, that your faithfulness is as permanent as the sky. 3 You said, "I have made a covenant with the man I chose; I have promised my servant David, 4 "A descendant of yours will always be king; I will preserve your dynasty forever."
15 How happy are the people who worship you with songs, who live in the light of your kindness! 16 Because of you they rejoice all day long, and they praise you for your goodness. 17 You give us great victories; in your love you make us triumphant. 18 You, O LORD, chose our protector; you, the Holy God of Israel, gave us our king.
On this verse A.A. Anderson (Psalms, Volume 2 of 2, New Century Bible Commentary, London: Oliphants, 1972, page 638) comments,
The Hebrew teruah ('festal shout') is the noise of shouting, or the noise created by the musical instruments... In this context teruah is the response of the people; they know not only what to shout... but they have also experienced the significance of the acclamation. They praise Yahweh [Jehovah, the Lord], not simply because it is the right thing to do, but because they are overwhelmed by his goodness and majesty."
Robert G. Bratcher and William D. Reyburn (A Handbook on Psalms, New York: United Bible Societies, 1991, page 776.) comment:
verse 15a we are not sure exactly how the festal shout was expressed in
Temple worship, but it certainly involved praise. The same term is used
for the shout of the Israelites when the walls of Jericho fell, so it
may have implied victory (Josh 6.20). It seems best to express the function
of the words 'know the festal shout' as 'know how to sing praises to you,'
'know how to praise you with song.'

KJV w/Strong's # - 1 And the child <05288> Samuel <08050> ministered <08334> unto the LORD <03068> before <06440> Eli <05941>. And the word <01697> of the LORD <03068> was precious <03368> in those <01992> days <03117>; [there was] no <0369> open <06555> vision <02377>. 2 And it came <01961> to pass at that time <03117>, when Eli <05941> [was] laid <07901> down <07901> in his place <04725>, and his eyes <05869> began <02490> to wax dim <03544>, [that] he could <03201> not see <07200>; 3 And ere <02962> the lamp <05216> of God <0430> went <03518> out in the temple <01964> of the LORD <03068>, where the ark <0727> of God <0430> [was], and Samuel <08050> was laid <07901> down <07901> [to sleep]; 4 That the LORD <03068> called <07121> Samuel <08050>: and he answered <0559>, Here <02009> [am] I. 5 And he ran <07323> unto Eli <05941>, and said <0559>, Here <02005> [am] I; for thou calledst <07121> me. And he said <0559>, I called <07121> not; lie <07901> down <07901> again <07725>. And he went <03212> and lay <07901> down <07901>. 6 And the LORD <03068> called <07121> yet <05750> again <03254>, Samuel <08050>. And Samuel <08050> arose <06965> and went <03212> to Eli <05941>, and said <0559>, Here <02005> [am] I; for thou didst call <07121> me. And he answered <0559>, I called <07121> not, my son <01121>; lie <07901> down <07901> again <07725>.
8 And the LORD <03068> called <07121> Samuel <08050> again <03254> the third <07992> time. And he arose <06965> and went <03212> to Eli <05941>, and said <0559>, Here <02005> [am] I; for thou didst call <07121> me. And Eli <05941> perceived <0995> that the LORD <03068> had called <07121> the child <05288>. 9 Therefore Eli <05941> said <0559> unto Samuel <08050>, Go <03212>, lie <07901> down <07901>: and it shall be, if <0518> he call <07121> thee, that thou shalt say <0559>, Speak <01696>, LORD <03068>; for thy servant <05650> heareth <08085>. So Samuel <08050> went <03212> and lay <07901> down <07901> in his place <04725>. 10 And the LORD <03068> came <0935>, and stood <03320>, and called <07121> as at other times <06471>, Samuel <08050>, Samuel <08050>. Then Samuel <08050> answered <0559>, Speak <01696>; for thy servant <05650> heareth <08085>.
19 And Samuel <08050>
grew <01431>, and the LORD <03068> was with him, and did let none
<03808> of his words <01697> fall <05307> to the ground <0776>.
NRSV - 1 Now the boy Samuel was ministering to the LORD under Eli. The word of the LORD was rare in those days; visions were not widespread. 2 At that time Eli, whose eyesight had begun to grow dim so that he could not see, was lying down in his room; 3 the lamp of God had not yet gone out, and Samuel was lying down in the temple of the LORD, where the ark of God was. 4 Then the LORD called, "Samuel! Samuel!" and he said, "Here I am!" 5 and ran to Eli, and said, "Here I am, for you called me." But he said, "I did not call; lie down again." So he went and lay down. 6 The LORD called again, "Samuel!" Samuel got up and went to Eli, and said, "Here I am, for you called me." But he said, "I did not call, my son; lie down again."
8 The LORD called Samuel again, a third time. And he got up and went to Eli, and said, "Here I am, for you called me." Then Eli perceived that the LORD was calling the boy. 9 Therefore Eli said to Samuel, "Go, lie down; and if he calls you, you shall say, "Speak, LORD, for your servant is listening."' So Samuel went and lay down in his place. 10 Now the LORD came and stood there, calling as before, "Samuel! Samuel!" And Samuel said, "Speak, for your servant is listening."
19 As Samuel grew up,
the LORD was with him and let none of his words fall to the ground.
TEV - "The LORD Appears to Samuel" - 1 In those days, when the boy Samuel was serving the LORD under the direction of Eli, there were very few messages from the LORD, and visions from him were quite rare. 2 One night Eli, who was now almost blind, was sleeping in his own room; 3 Samuel was sleeping in the sanctuary, where the sacred Covenant Box was. Before dawn, while the lamp was still burning, 4 the LORD called Samuel. He answered, "Yes, sir!" 5 and ran to Eli and said, "You called me, and here I am." But Eli answered, "I didn't call you; go back to bed." So Samuel went back to bed. 6...7 The LORD called Samuel again. The boy did not know that it was the LORD, because the LORD had never spoken to him before. So he got up, went to Eli, and said, "You called me, and here I am." But Eli answered, "My son, I didn't call you; go back to bed." 8 The LORD called Samuel a third time; he got up, went to Eli, and said, "You called me, and here I am." Then Eli realized that it was the LORD who was calling the boy, 9 so he said to him, "Go back to bed; and if he calls you again, say, "Speak, LORD, your servant is listening." So Samuel went back to bed. 10 The LORD came and stood there, and called as he had before, "Samuel! Samuel!" Samuel answered, "Speak; your servant is listening."
19 As Samuel grew up,
the LORD was with him and made come true everything that Samuel said.
20 So all the people of Israel, from one end of the country to the other, knew
that Samuel was indeed a prophet of the LORD. 21 The LORD continued to reveal
himself at Shiloh, where he had appeared to Samuel and had spoken to him. And
when Samuel spoke, all Israel listened.

NRSV - 4 Gladden the soul of your servant, for to you, O Lord, I lift up my soul.
TEV - "A Prayer for Help" - 3 You are my God, so be merciful to me; I pray to you all day long. 4 Make [<05315>] your servant glad, O Lord, because my [<05315>] prayers go up to you. 5 You are good to us and forgiving, full of constant love for all who pray to you. 6 Listen, LORD, to my prayer; hear my cries for help. 7 I call to you in times of trouble, because you answer my prayers.

NRSV - 8 Let me hear what God the LORD will speak, for he will speak peace to his people, to his faithful,...
TEV - "A Prayer for the Nation's Welfare" - 4 Bring us back, O God our savior, and stop being displeased with us! 5 Will you be angry with us forever? Will your anger never cease? 6 Make us strong again, and we, your people, will praise you. 7 Show us your constant love, O LORD, and give us your saving help. 8 I am listening to what the LORD God is saying; he promises peace to us, his own people, if we do not go back to our foolish ways. 9 Surely he is ready to save those who honor him, and his saving presence will remain in our land.t

NRSV - 1 Here is my servant, whom I uphold, my chosen, in whom my soul delights; I have put my spirit upon him; he will bring forth justice to the nations.
TEV - "The LORD's Servant" - 1 The LORD says, "Here is my servant, whom I strengthen -- the one I have chosen, with whom I am pleased. I have filled him with my spirit, and he will bring justice to every nation. 2 He will not shout or raise his voice or make loud speeches in the streets. 3 He will not break off a bent reed nor put out a flickering lamp. He will bring lasting justice to all. 4 He will not lose hope or courage; he will establish justice on the earth. Distant lands eagerly wait for his teaching."

NRSV - 1 The beginning of the good news of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
TEV - "Introduction" - 1 This is the Good News about Jesus Christ, the Son of God. 2 It began as the prophet Isaiah had written: "God said, "I will send my messenger ahead of you to open the way for you.' 3 Someone is shouting in the desert, "Get the road ready for the Lord; make a straight path for him to travel!"
|B9 - Luk 2
KJV w/Strong's # - 41 Now <2532> his parents <1118> went <4198> to Jerusalem <2419> every <2596> year <2094> at the feast <1859> of the passover <3957>. 42 And when <3753> he was twelve <1427> years <2094> old, they went <305> up to Jerusalem <2414> after <2596> the custom <1485> of the feast <1859>. 43 And when they had fulfilled <5048> the days <2250>, as they returned <5290>, the child <3816> Jesus <2424> tarried <5278> behind <5278> in Jerusalem <2419>; and Joseph <2501> and his mother <3384> knew <1097> not [of it].
45 And when they found <2147> him not, they turned <5290> back <5290> again <5290> to Jerusalem <2419>, seeking <2212> him. 46 And it came <1096> to pass, that after <3326> three <5140> days <2250> they found <2147> him in the temple <2411>, sitting <2516> in the midst <3319> of the doctors <1320>, both <2532> hearing <191> them, and asking <1905> them questions <1905>. 47 And all <3956> that heard <191> him were astonished <1839> at <1909> his understanding <4907> and answers <612>.
52 And Jesus <2424>
increased <4298> in wisdom <4678> and stature <2244>, and
in favour <5485> with God <2316> and man <444>.
NRSV - 41 Now every year his parents went to Jerusalem for the festival of the Passover. 42 And when he was twelve years old, they went up as usual for the festival. 43 When the festival was ended and they started to return, the boy Jesus stayed behind in Jerusalem, but his parents did not know it.
45 When they did not find him, they returned to Jerusalem to search for him. 46 After three days they found him in the temple, sitting among the teachers, listening to them and asking them questions. 47 And all who heard him were amazed at his understanding and his answers.
52 And Jesus increased
in wisdom and in years, and in divine and human favor.
TEV - "The Boy Jesus in the Temple" - 41 Every year the parents of Jesus went to Jerusalem for the Passover Festival. 42 When Jesus was twelve years old, they went to the festival as usual. 43 When the festival was over, they started back home, but the boy Jesus stayed in Jerusalem. His parents did not know this; 44 they thought that he was with the group, so they traveled a whole day and then started looking for him among their relatives and friends. 45 They did not find him, so they went back to Jerusalem looking for him. 46 On the third day they found him in the Temple, sitting with the Jewish teachers, listening to them and asking questions. 47 All who heard him were amazed at his intelligent answers.
49 He answered them, "Why did you have to look for me? Didn't you know that I had to be in my Father's house?" 50 But they did not understand his answer. 51 So Jesus went back with them to Nazareth, where he was obedient to them. His mother treasured all these things in her heart. 52 Jesus grew both in body and in wisdom, gaining favor with God and men.
In the interest of safeguarding the doctrine of the virgin birth a few copyists and translators replaced hoi goneis autou [his parents] with the proper names ho te Ioseph kai he Mariam [Joseph and Mary].
As in verses 33 and 41, in order to safeguard the doctrine of the virgin birth copyists replaced hoi goneis [his parents] with Ioseph kai he meter [Joseph and his mother].

TEV - "Jesus Speaks about His Suffering and Death" - 24 Then Jesus said to his disciples, "If anyone wants to come with me, he must forget himself, carry his cross, and follow me. 25 For whoever wants to save his own life will lose it; but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it. 26 Will a person gain anything if he wins the whole world but loses his life? Of course not! There is nothing he can give to regain his life. 27 For the Son of Man is about to come in the glory of his Father with his angels, and then he will reward each one according to his deeds. 28 I assure you that there are some here who will not die until they have seen the Son of Man come as King."

hearts as well as our hands to God in heaven.
TEV - "Punishment, Repentance, and Hope" - 19 The thought of my pain, my homelessness, is bitter poison. 20 I think of it constantly, and my spirit is depressed. 21 Yet hope returns when I remember this one thing: 22 The LORD's unfailing love and mercy still continue, 23 Fresh as the morning, as sure as the sunrise. 24 The LORD is all I have, and so in him I put my hope. 25 The LORD is good to everyone who trusts in him, 26 So it is best for us to wait in patience -- to wait for him to save us -- 27 And it is best to learn this patience in our youth.

And they call <5455> the blind <5185> man, saying <3004> unto him, Be of good comfort <2293>, rise <1453>; he calleth <5455> thee. 50 And he, casting <577> away <577> his garment <2440>, rose <450>, and came <2064> to Jesus <2424>. 51 And Jesus <2424> answered <611> and said <3004> unto him, What <5101> wilt <2309> thou that I should do <4160> unto thee? The blind <5185> man said <2036> unto him, Lord <4462>, that I might receive <308> my sight <308>. 52 And Jesus <2424> said <2036> unto him, Go <5217> thy way; thy faith <4102> hath made <4982> thee whole <4982>.

And they called the blind man, saying to him, "Take heart; get up, he is calling you." 50 So throwing off his cloak, he sprang up and came to Jesus. 51 Then Jesus said to him, "What do you want me to do for you?" The blind man said to him, "My teacher, let me see again." 52 Jesus said to him, "Go; your faith has made you well." Immediately he regained his sight and followed him on the way.

KJV w/Strong's # - 20 And when he was demanded <1905> of the Pharisees <5330>, when <4219> the kingdom <932> of God <2316> should come <2064>, he answered <611> them and said <2036>, The kingdom <932> of God <2316> cometh <2064> not with observation <3907>: 21 Neither <3761> shall they say <2046>, Lo <2400> here <5602>! or <2228>, lo <2400> there <1563>! for, behold <2400>, the kingdom <932> of God <2316> is within <1787> you.
NRSV - 20 Once Jesus was asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God was coming, and he answered, "The kingdom of God is not coming with things that can be observed; 21 nor will they say, "Look, here it is!' or "There it is!' For, in fact, the kingdom of God is among you."
TEV - "The Coming of the Kingdom" - 20 Some Pharisees asked Jesus when the Kingdom of God would come. His answer was, "The Kingdom of God does not come in such a way as to be seen. 21 No one will say, "Look, here it is!' or, "There it is!'; because the Kingdom of God is within you."

NRSV - 17 Shall not Lebanon in a very little while become a fruitful field, and the fruitful field be regarded as a forest? 18 On that day the deaf shall hear the words of a scroll, and out of their gloom and darkness the eyes of the blind shall see. 19 The meek shall obtain fresh joy in the LORD, and the neediest people shall exult in the Holy One of Israel.
TEV - "Hope for the Future" - 15 Those who try to hide their plans from the LORD are doomed! They carry out their schemes in secret and think no one will see them or know what they are doing. 16 They turn everything upside down. Which is more important, the potter or the clay? Can something a man has made tell him, "You didn't make me"? Or can it say to him, "You don't know what you are doing"? 17 As the saying goes, before long the dense forest will become farmland, and the farmland will go back to forest. 18 When that day comes, the deaf will be able to hear a book being read aloud, and the blind, who have been living in darkness, will open their eyes and see. 19 Poor and humble people will once again find the happiness which the LORD, the holy God of Israel, gives. 20 It will be the end of those who oppress others and show contempt for God. Every sinner will be destroyed. 21 God will destroy those who slander others, those who prevent the punishment of criminals, and those who tell lies to keep honest men from getting justice.

The latest word from the Denver City Council about a potential sexual harassment investigation of Mayor Michael Hancock is that its members are still deliberating on whether to start one, even as they seek to tamp down public expectations.
Denver police Detective Leslie Branch-Wise has asked for an open investigation into revelations last month that Hancock sent her several suggestive text messages six years ago, when she was on his security detail. The mayor has apologized — but also has said he didn't realize the texts made her uncomfortable.
While Branch-Wise's attorney this week suggested a council probe could focus on whether the texts amounted to sexual harassment, the council said in a document released Thursday night to the media that that may not happen.
"The purpose of a sexual harassment investigation is to determine whether the alleged conduct occurred, not to determine whether the alleged conduct rises to the level of sexual harassment, which is a legal definition to be determined by a court of law," says the two-page document, titled "Frequently Asked Questions." "This is why most sexual harassment investigations end with the conclusion that it is more likely than not that an action occurred."
The FAQ document, in addressing other questions, outlined what an investigation would look like if the council took advantage of the little-used investigatory power given to it by the city charter.
It makes clear that council members themselves wouldn't investigate, for starters. And a statement from President Albus Brooks repeated earlier assertions that because state law withholds sexual-harassment complaints and investigations from public disclosure, a probe of Hancock may not occur in the open.
Instead, the document says that if Branch-Wise were to file a written complaint — which the council's attorney requested but hasn't yet received — the council could vote to launch an investigation. The council would then ask the Hancock administration to hire "a third-party investigator."
The document says the use of an outside investigator would "ensure an investigation was neutral and unbiased," though it doesn't say why Hancock's office would have a role in the selection.
What about using a council subpoena to question Hancock directly about his intentions? In reply to that question, the document says only: "Intention is not relevant to a determination of whether sexual harassment has occurred."
Sean Lane, an attorney representing Branch-Wise, did not immediately respond to a request for comment Friday.
The city of Denver lacks a process to report harassment against elected officials. The council's FAQ document says it "will clarify our own agency policy" to establish a path for reporting concerns and encourages other city elected officials to do so, too.
Most of the council's members met for more than two and a half hours in a closed-door meeting with the body's legislative counsel Tuesday night. Another private executive session is set for Monday night's council meeting.
"Council continues to deliberate over (Branch-Wise's) request and receive legal advice from our own city attorney," Brooks said in Thursday's statement. "Council is a deliberative body made up of 13 members and we do not expect to come to any conclusions until next week at the earliest. … We will be responding privately to Detective Branch-Wise and her attorney once Council has finished deliberating."
Under the city charter, the council lacks authority to discipline Hancock or even issue a formal censure, but it could issue a report of findings. The second-term mayor, who can be removed only through a voter recall, is expected to seek re-election in May 2019.

Building the Right Environment to Support AI, Machine Learning and Deep Learning
Google has made good on a promise it made at the I/O development conference, rolling out two new Awareness APIs for Android devices: Snapshot and Fence. The tools make it possible for apps to guess what a user is doing based on the time of day, location, weather and four other context signals. For example, if a user is walking and has plugged in headphones, an app could suggest a song. The Snapshot API allows apps to request information about what the user might currently be doing, and the Fence API allows the app to react to changes in what the user is doing.
However, the new APIs also come with a warning. Google says developers should be careful not to provide too many notifications or to drain battery life by making too many context requests.

They are queer and everything has to be said in the plainest English before they understand, also if Father speaks they both listen and calmly disregard whatever anyone else may be saying to them. The first time I think we had them in. Father wishing to be pleasant asked on if they 'had a pony to drive?' 'No, we have a coachman' was the squashing reply. I burst, I couldn't help it. Heaven knows what they thought he meant. 'I dunno' — this I may say is their usual remark to any question. 'I dunno'! though now Father has teased them out of it.

Hi, Evie Bloomfield here from the Cycle Path mysteries
In case you didn't know... This is how me getting to Mackinac Island all started...
You see, I was a graphic designer at a firm in Chicago. I came from a family of lawyers, really successful lawyers. My siblings, Trevor and Lindsey, are the perfect offspring. They made perfect grades and now work at the perfect law firms. Fact is Lindsey just made partner!
My boss didn't know I was alive, I hadn't had a promotion in two years and was still on the bottom rung of the office pecking order. My apartment was the size of a pool table but most pool tables were nicer.
I needed a raise! I needed something to brag about at Thanksgiving dinner, the next big family get-together. The way things were going I was headed to be eating turkey at the little kids table.
So, I had a plan. My boss's father owned a bicycle shop on Mackinac Island and had broken his leg. He was really laid up and can't do much. I figured if I offer to go help him out, maybe spruce the place up because he couldn't I just might get my boss's attention. At least maybe she'd remember my name. Seems to me that was the first step in getting a raise.
I could just quit the job and move on but I had years invested here. So, I left Chicago and went to an eight mile chunk of land in the middle of a lake to try and wheedle a promotion out of my boss.
I've never been to Mackinac Island! Wow, was I in for a huge surprise of no cars and only big horses and bikes to get around. That my boss's dad got accused of murder on my watch did not help my chances of that promotion one bit.
So my question to you today is, have you ever been to a place that was completely a big surprise? Someplace where you felt completely out of it?
Hugs, Evie

Egypt's prosecutor-general on Wednesday referred four people, including an Austrian citizen and German national, to a state security court on charges of smuggling weapons into the country.
The Austrian and the German, who work for a private security firm, were detained in November along with an Egyptian. Another Egyptian will be tried in absentia, the prosecutor's office said.
The four are accused of "illegally importing unlicensed weapons, ammunition and telescopes into the country and hiding the goods in order to avoid customs duties," it said.
A trial date has yet to be set.
