Yesterday we heard of the preparations for building the temple, and then the dimensions and the beginning of the construction starting in the 4th year of Solomon’s reign.
Translation note:
6He also made ten smaller basins for washing the utensils for the burnt offerings. He set five on the south side and five on the north. But the priests washed themselves [at/in] the Sea.

Today’s first verse is very like the advice of James in the New Testament:
1Don’t brag about tomorrow,
since you don’t know what the day will bring.

Yesterday we heard of several powerful healings and the miracle of calming the storm. One of the one-becomes-two instances is in the Gadarene demon possessed man, called Legion in the other Gospels. If Matthew was present, as I posited before, it would be before the story of his joining the disciples in this chapter.
Translation notes:
22Jesus turned around, and when he saw her he said, “[0//Daughter,
]be encouraged! Your [belief in Me//faith] has made you well.” And the woman was healed at that moment.
29Then he touched their eyes and said, “Because [you have believed in Me//of your faith], it will happen.”
