1CHRONICLES 7:
Yesterday we heard about Levite and priestly
genealogies and their allotment of towns. The pace quickens as
today we hear of six tribes.
PROVERBS 16b:
Today’s highlighted verse is this:
Pro.
16:18 NLT Pride goes before destruction,
and haughtiness before a fall.
EPHESIANS 6:
This
is another chapter break that interrupts the flow. Yesterday we
started a new topic with the words “submit to one another out of
reverence for Christ.” We have heard about the husband-wife
relationship under this, and now we hear of two more relationship
pairs.
NLT Translation notes:
1Chr. 7:21 Zabad, Shuthelah, Ezer, and Elead.
These [last] two were killed trying to steal livestock from the
local farmers near Gath.

Eph.
6:10 A[s my] final word: [PET: each one of you, be strong because
you keep on hoping completely in the Lord's amazing power, and also
because you are joined as one with Him.//NLT Be strong in the Lord
and in his mighty power.]
21-22 [PET: Our beloved brother, Tychicus, has
brought this letter to you. He serves the Lord very faithfully as
our brother who is joined as one with the Lord. I also sent him so
that he could give you news about my situation and ministry, so
that you can know about our situation and so that he can strengthen
your hearts.//NLT To bring you up to date, Tychicus will give you a
full report about what I am doing and how I am getting along. He is
a beloved brother and faithful helper in the Lord’s work.
22I
have sent him to you for this very purpose—to let you know how we
are doing and to encourage you.]
