Tuesday, 20 February 2024   Then the high priest and the chief men of the Jews informed him against Paul; and they petitioned him, Acts 25:2   Chapter 25 began with Festus coming to the province and then ascending to Jerusalem after three days. Now, while in Jerusalem, it says, “Then the high priest.”   Some manuscripts have the plural “priests,” while others have the singular “priest.” Either is possible because any previous high priest would still bear the title of high priest. By this time, the high priest was a person named Ismael, the son of Fabi (Josephus, Antiq., book 20, chapter 8, section 8). Along with him, it next notes, “and the chief men of the Jews.”   The word is prótos. It signifies the foremost, principle, etc. Further, it is this in time, place, order, or importance. In this case, it is referring to people. Being plural, it thus speaks of the principal men of the city. Of this gathered group, Luke next notes that they “informed him against Paul.”   After two full years of time, they were still stewing over Paul. They simply couldn't move on from his words. Unlike the other apostles who apparently lived and moved freely among the people, Paul actively went forth to the Gentiles, evangelizing them and telling them that there were no cultural distinctions in Christ. In other words, Paul clearly and unambiguously reveals in his words that Gentiles are just as favored by God as Jews. There is no distinction, even if there are differences (e.g., Jew/Gentile, Russian/Japanese, Black/Caucasian, etc.).   Yes, there are differences in all people and in all people groups, but there is no distinction in Christ. The Jews could not accept this. Therefore, they sat in Jerusalem stewing like meat in a pot, angrily awaiting the day that they could be rid of such a heretic. Therefore, when Festus showed up, they plotted in their minds, “and they petitioned him.”   The word translated as “petitioned” is in the imperfect tense, and so it indicates that they not only petitioned him but continued to petition him. The entire time he was there, they kept bringing the issue of Paul up to them. It shows that they were truly possessed by the situation and simply couldn't let it go.   One can imagine them going to bed each night, lying on their beds, and tossing and turning at the nerve of this man who said they were just like the Gentiles. But this is how it is in Christ. Thus, they rejected not only Paul's message but also the One Paul proclaimed.   Life application: To this day, there is an almost idolatrous reverence by some in the church to Jewish teachers. They are fawned over, regardless of what they teach or preach. Many of these teachers reinsert law observance, such as telling their followers not to eat pork, to observe the Sabbath, and so forth.   And yet, because these people are Jewish, they are held in special esteem. This is a bad approach to one's theology. It doesn't matter if someone has a doctorate, if he speaks fluent Hebrew or Greek, or if he has expensive, flashy clothes. The only thing that should matter to people in the church is adherence to and right application of God's word.   Anything less should not be tolerated. Be careful to not get caught up in fallacious thinking. Evaluate leaders based on the word. In doing this, you will avoid many pitfalls and many false teachers who are out there, trying to steal you away from a right relationship with Jesus.   Lord God Almighty, help us to be sound in our thoughts about those who minister to us. May our hearts be directed to You. If anyone fails to proclaim Your grace apart from law observance, help us to identify this error and get away from it. You alone have done all that is needed to restore us in the giving of Jesus. Thank You, O God, for Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

“You just like children. Have eyes but don't see. You try live in taiga, soon dead.” We're joined by illustrator and poster designer Tony Stella to discuss what might be Akira Kurosawa's most neglected masterpiece, Dersu Uzala! The trio discusses where the film, an unexpected Russian-Japanese co-production, fits into the filmography of a filmmaker any reasonable cinephile would consider to be among the greatest to ever do it. Coming shortly on the heels of Kurosawa's suicide attempt, Dersu represents a strange spiritual transformation for the filmmaker but one that led directly to his stunning creative rebirth with Kagemusha, Ran and Dreams. The film follows a Russian army officer in the early 20th century on a series missions exploring the far reaches of the taiga on the border between Russia and China. On his initial trip into the extreme and unforgiving wilderness, he meets the titular character, a strange woodsman who yells at fire, shoots with supernatural accuracy, and knows the landscape better than anyone who ever lived. It's the story of an unlikely friendship between impressive, seemingly indomitable men.

Japan's New LeaderThe Economist magazine continues its usually astute and detailed coverage of the Japanese political scene with an article about the country's new prime minister, Kishida Fumio, who was recently elected president of the ruling Liberal Democratic Party. Fumio has taken the reins of office from Yoshihide Suga, an unpopular leader who announced last month that he would not seek reelection as leader of his party. Fumio's record in Japanese politics and international diplomacy is uneven. As foreign minister under prime minister Shinzo Abe in the last decade, Fumio drank vodka with Russian diplomat Sergei Lavrov, but the somewhat forced conviviality did not achieve the hoped-for breakthrough in Russian-Japanese relations. Fumio also organized a visit by then-U.S. president Barack Obama to his hometown of Hiroshima and tried to work out an agreement whereby Japan would compensate South Korean women whom the Japanese military forced into sexual slavery during the Second World War. No such deal ever came about, but the Economist's article blames a change of government in South Korea rather than any failure on Fumio's part.The New Republic Slams TuckerThe New Republic's October issue features a cover story highly critical of Fox News host Tucker Carlson.Before getting into the content of this piece, it is worth noting that there was a time well within living memory when TNR was popular among some conservatives. Not just neoconservatives, who shared its concern for Israel and U.S. policy in the Middle East, but even social conservatives who found some of its in-depth articles in the 1990s to be quite trenchant. The examples spring to mind of Heather Mac Donald's scathing piece on diversity training programs that enriched those who conducted them while bullying and ostracizing the employees who had to undergo them, and Stephanie Guttmann's cover story debunking the politically correct hype about a gender-integrated military and exposing the serious problems that integration has caused. TNR also blasted the incompetence and corruption of the police force in Washington, D.C., and the force's bungling of murder cases.Since the magazine's acquisition by Facebook billionaire Chris Hughes and its sale in 2016 to Win McCormack, a once-lively and eclectic publication has grown much more consistently left-wing. For a magazine trying to tilt the country in a more progressive direction, Fox News host Carlson, one of the most outspoken and prominent conservative commentators on the planet, is an obvious target.Haruki Murakami Library Opens in TokyoFinally, returning to Japan, we've got a story by yours truly on Book and Film Globe chronicles the official opening of the Waseda International House of Literature in Tokyo. One of the most admired writers in Japan today, Haruki Murakami, is also the impetus behind the launch of an institution that is sure to be popular in a Covid-wracked nation nursing its wounded pride after the letdown of the 2021 Olympics. Amid the pandemic, the 72-year-old Murakami has emerged as one of his country's most candid and empathic public figures, and his bold move is a salve to a nation in tormented times. And more...

Would you please help us improve the show by voting for your favourite track from this episode? TweetPinShare US citizen Russian/Japanese descendant Miya Folick surprises the hell out of us by actually being more English than us! Her track Thingamajig prompts debate about how quintessentially English it is. Furthermore, we try to decide between ourselves what her next single should be entitled. Join us to find out more. However, Miya Folick's magic is not all we have today. You'll learn that Tobin is secretly trying to paint a picture of Richard by following up his How To Socialise and Make Friends LP single track a couple of weeks back by introducing Drinker to the show. Ha! Tobin has been rumbled. Secondly, he follows that up with a classic punk track by The Freeze from only this year proving the genre is far from dead. In fact, Tobin introduces more skull cracking punk in a few weeks time so stay tuned. In addition to this already appalling racket, Richard spins up a Record Box Classic from deep within his own personal collection, the heavily E-tuned strings of Kim Thayil's guitar wizardry. Soundgarden pump out from the exquisite translucent yellow vinyl straight into your ears. Revel in it's glory. We then have a cautionary tale of colonialism, sexism, racism and brutality from the past with the musical juggernaut Black Myself. It's a track full of hope and resilience actually and isn't afraid to confront some pretty ugly issues. Oh, no pun intended, brother and sister duo The Oh Hellos bookend the show nicely for us. Let's crack on. Table of Contents[hide]Track ListingTwink: Think Pink IV - Return to Deep SpaceMiya Folick gives us her Thingamajig, closely followed by Whoopsadaisy.

We have been listening to this here at Record Box HQ for a few weeks already now and cannot wait to share it with our listeners. It's a dreamy, intergalactic, diverse journey of a listen and one which does in fact transport the listener through the cosmos. From the opening track through to the finale it's music to be consumed whilst sat in a cloud of smoke from a thousand joss sticks. Twink has moved right on along with technology but still has that magic spark that allows him to retain his original sound from all those years ago. Twink is the genuine article and a bona fide psychedelic rock god.
