The closing of Acts 28 marks a significant moment in the history of the early church, reflecting the ongoing ministry of the Gospel and its connection to church planting. As Paul arrives in Rome under house arrest, he continues to preach the Gospel boldly and without hindrance (Acts 28:30-31). This chapter signifies that, despite opposition, persecution, and obstacles, the mission of spreading the Gospel and establishing new churches continued unabated.

The passing of authority from Elijah to Elisha represents the continuation of God’s prophetic work in Israel. Elisha’s request for a double portion of Elijah’s spirit is fulfilled, as he goes on to perform many miracles, even more than Elijah did. This story also highlights themes of loyalty, faith, and the continuation of divine mission through chosen leaders.

In the time of Elisha the prophet, a widow in desperate need approached him, having been left with debts and facing the threat of losing her sons to creditors. With only a small jar of oil remaining, Elisha instructed her to borrow as many empty vessels as she could from her neighbors, then pour the oil into them.
