poor. In Acts are stories that deal with greed for money (5:1–11; 8:18–24), the economic exploitation of others, and fierce attacks on anyone who interferes (16:19–24; 19:23–41). Bribes are given and taken (24:26), and human life is endangered for profit (27:10–12). In Acts another noticeable characteristic is the great attention given to travel. This includes both the journeys by land and by sea, with special interest in the latter. The various ports of call are carefully given and time lapses noted.
