Timothy 3:11

28. Eutychus
a. Who fell from a third story window? (Acts 20:9) Eutychus
29. Mannah or Staff of Aaron
a. Aaron’s rod, or staff, played in important part in God’s plan to lead the Israelites
out of Egypt and into the Promised Land. In ancient Israelite culture, a rod was a
symbol of authority. Shepherds used rods to guide and correct their flocks (Psalm
23:4). When God called the shepherd Moses to lead the Israelites out of Egypt, He
demonstrated His power by performing miracles using Moses’ rod (Exodus 4:1–
5; Numbers 20:11). God also chose Moses’ brother, Aaron, to perform miracles
with his own rod (Exodus 7:19; 8:5, 16).
b. Aaron’s rod was the one that turned into a snake in Pharaoh’s court; when the
Egyptian magi also turned their staffs into snakes, the snake that had been
Aaron’s rod swallowed theirs up (Exodus 7:8–10). It was Aaron’s rod that God used
to turn the water of Egypt into blood (Exodus 7:19–21). And it was Aaron’s rod
that summoned the plagues of the frogs (Exodus 8:5–6) and gnats (verses 16–17).
After Moses and Aaron had led the Israelites out of captivity, God set apart Aaron
and his sons as priests (Exodus 28:1; Numbers 18:1). The rest of the Levites were
to minister to the Lord in the tabernacle, offer sacrifices, and hear from God for
the good of the whole nation.
30. Bartimaeus
a. The story of Blind Bartimaeus occurs in the Gospel of Mark and concerns the
healing of a blind beggar called Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus.
b. On his way out of Jericho, Jesus was surrounded by a huge crowd, when, from the
roadside, Bartimaeus called out to Him to be healed. The events that follow tell
 us something profound about God’s nature and shed light on the type of faith and
prayer that are pleasing to God.
31. Tiberius Ceasar
a. It is Julius Caesar’s immediate heir that is mentioned in the famous nativity story:
“In those days Caesar Augustus issued a decree that a census should be taken of
the entire Roman world” (Luke 2:1).
b. Augustus was followed by his adopted stepson Tiberius, who is mentioned in Luke
3:1. John the Baptist entered his ministry in the thirteenth year of the reign of
Tiberius.
c. Tiberius was followed by Caligula, who is not mentioned in the New Testament.
Caligula was the great-nephew of Augustus on his father’s side and the nephew of
Tiberius on his mother’s side.
d. Caligula was followed by Claudius Caesar, the uncle of Tiberius. Claudius is
mentioned in Acts 18:2. Priscilla and Aquila left Italy because the Emperor
Claudius has expelled all Jews from Rome.
e. The final Emperor who could claim any kinship to Julius Caesar was Nero, who is
not mentioned by name in the New Testament but was the Emperor in power
when Paul made his appeal to Caesar (Acts 25:10–11). From extrabiblical sources
we know of Nero’s intense persecution of Christians.
32. Centurion
a. During the New Testament era, a Roman centurion was a professional military
officer commanding a platoon of troops called a “century.” This could be
anywhere from nearly one hundred to several hundred men. Each Roman
legion was composed of nearly 5,000 men, divided into multiple cohorts, each
cohort composed of multiple centuries. As a result, a legion could contain as
many as sixty centurions. Their importance was based on seniority, with the
senior centurion in a legion being in a position of great prestige. Some historians
have compared the top-level centurions to medieval knights. Roman centurions
represented the bridge between enlisted troops and commissioned officers, in
much the same way as warrant officers do in the modern U.S. military.
b. The Bible mentions several Roman centurions. The man overseeing Jesus’
crucifixion was a centurion (Matthew 27:54), probably one of lower seniority. It
was a centurion who exclaimed at the foot of the cross, “Surely this man was the
Son of God!” (Mark 15:39). Matthew 8:5–13 and Luke 7:1–10 relay the story of a
centurion, likely of high rank, who approached Jesus for healing on behalf of his
servant. The royal official mentioned in John 4:43–54 might have been a high-
ranking centurion, as well. In all cases, the centurions are noted for their position
of authority. For these men to make a request of anyone, let alone Jesus, a Jew,
would have required great faith and great humility.

33. Parables
a. A parable is a story told to illustrate a truth. Jesus’ parables were teaching aids
and can be thought of as extended analogies, comparing two things or ideas. A
common description of a parable is that it is an earthly story with a heavenly
meaning. Jesus told many parables; in fact, at least for a time in His ministry,
 Jesus relied heavily on story-telling: “He did not say anything to them without
using a parable” (Mark 4:34).

never gave suck!' Then they will begin to say to the mountains, ‘Fall on us'; and to
