December 9, read through the Holy Bible in a year in Power-point, with comments.

In between the letter of Jude and Revelation we read one chapter of Proverbs and two chapters of Micah.

December 9: Proverbs 30, Micah 4, Micah 5 (click on the chapter to begin reading).

Proverbs 30. The sayings of Agur. Solomon wasn’t the only man with wisdom and these sayings made it into the canonical scripture. Two examples: “give me neither poverty nor riches” and “The horseleach hath two daughters, crying, Give, give.”

Micah 4 speaks of the LORD’s future reign in Zion and Zion’s triumph.

Micah 5. The promise of the coming Messiah: “But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting.”  But first, God promised punishment of Israel’s injustice.
