Good morning. One part of the body cannot say to
another “I have no need of you“. On the contrary, it is much truer that the
members of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary; and those members of
the body which we deem less honorable, on these we bestow more abundant honor,
and our less presentable members become much more presentable, whereas our more
presentable members have no need of it. But God has so composed the body,
giving more abundant honor to that member which lacked, so that there may be no
divisions in the body, but that the members may have the same care for one
another. And if one member suffers/is honored, all the members suffer/rejoice
with it. What affects one of us, affects all of us, whether it’s something good
or something bad. Now you are Christ’s body, and individually members of it. We
are to work together for the best of each individual, so that the entire body
may have what is necessary. Father go with the reader and his/her family and
meet all of their needs

Luke has not been mentioned during the entire two years that Paul was at Caesarea. I guess it is safe to assume that he was in the area during this time. We will leave out the names of a bunch of places where they passed. They had sailed for a good many days and began to have trouble with the wind. This was a warning of what was about to happen. When considerable time had passed and the voyage was now dangerous, since even the fast (Day of Atonement) was already over, Paul began to admonish them to not continue, because he perceived that not only would there be a loss of the cargo but also of their lives. The centurion was more persuaded by the pilot and the captain of the ship than by what was being said by Paul. They did not want to get stuck for the winter in the port where they were located. They actually were only g...
