And he found a Jew named Aquila, a native of Pontus, recently come from Italy with his wife Priscilla, because Claudius had commanded all the Jews to leave Rome.

    We hear much today about self-proclaimed preachers who seem to care little about the Lord and His Holy Word but seem to care a great deal about their wealth and popularity. Phinehas and Hophni were not so concerned about popularity but they certainly cared about their creature comforts!
