Where in the Bible will I find…?

Matthew 5:17 “Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.”
I hope everyone has gotten off to a great start in 2025. I pray that you are planning on getting into your Bible everyday for it tells us to “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth (2nd Timothy 2:15).” And “pray without ceasing (1st Thessalonians 5:17).” Our question for the week is; “Where in the Bible will I find people in the Bible burning their books worth 50,000 pieces of silver?”
Some people are enamored with books some don’t care to read much but we all know that it is from books that we get a lot of our learning. History tells us that many times people who found that their books were inaccurate or taught something incorrectly they burned their books to keep others from being taught incorrectly also. Unfortunately some books have been proven to be fraudulent and promote things that are not true, however those in authoritative positions refuse to discard these books because they continue to promote their doctrine. In the Bible during the days of Paul the apostle there were people who practiced witchcraft and things such like, when they saw the miracles performed by Paul, abandoned those works. Some of them were exorcists and when they unsuccessfully attempted to cast out an evil spirit by the name of Jesus whom Paul preaches, they were actually rebuked by the evil spirit. Acts 19:15-19 “And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know but who are ye? And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and overcame them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded. And this was known to all the Jews and Greeks also dwelling at Ephesus; and fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified. And many that believed came, and confessed, and shewed their deeds. Many of them also which used curious arts brought their books together, and burned them before all man: and they counted the price of them, and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver.” Think about it!
