Acts 5 CEB (Common English Bible)

This is a fun story isn’t it Anna and Sephira in some ways it seems like there is a connection between Anna and Sephira story and Aaron‘s son‘s not Abby who in a way both are very tragic stories of God‘s beginning new work to make people realize how big of a deal it is. I think that we should definitely temper this story with the fact that even though we cannot raise the dead. This whole book is in fact a connection to the idea of Jesus raising the dead so that should be in the back of our minds that the Resurrection is a reality And so that even though it seems like an niacin Sephira being killed by God, which is what it seems like is happening seems very final to us in a very real way. It’s not even close to final to God. A lot of other stuff in here we have jail time we have getting let out of jail all kinds of crazy stuff happening people trying to have people touch Peter shadowwild stuff.
