20Our ancestors began to possess Canaan about 450 years after their ancestors had arrived in Egypt.” Acts 13:20b-22 “After that, God appointed leaders to rule the Israeli people. Those leaders continued to rule our people until the time when the prophet Samuel ruled them.
21Then, while Samuel was still their leader, the people demanded that he appoint a king to rule them. So God appointed Saul, the son of Kish, from the tribe of Benjamin, to be their king. He ruled them for forty years.
22After God had rejected Saul from being king, he appointed David to be their king. God said about him, ‘I have observed that David, son of Jesse, is exactly the kind of man that I desire IDM. He will do everything that I want him to do.’ ”
23“From among David's descendants, God brought one of them, Jesus, to us Israeli people to save us, just like he had told David and our other ancestors that he would do.
24Before Jesus began his work, John the Baptizer preached to all of our Israeli people who came to him. He told them that they should turn away from their sinful behavior and ask God to forgive them. Then he would baptize them.
25When John was about to finish the work that God gave him to do, he frequently said to the people, ‘Do you think RHQ that I am the Messiah whom God promised to send? No, I am not. But listen! The Messiah will soon come. He is so much greater than I am that I am not even important enough to be his slave MET.’”
