Is God in Charge of the Progression of the History of the Nations?

It's God who's in control of the progression of the history of all these places and peoples is what Paul is saying. Then he adds and he's also determined the boundaries of their dwelling places, harkening back to the Deuteronomy 32 approach there that you know he's familiar with because again he knows his Old Testament. By implication catch this not these other gods the gods that you know aren't the ones in control it's the God you don't know who's in Control.
