00:00:02.919 --> 00:00:04.960
We're<00:00:03.160><c> going</c><00:00:03.240><c> to</c><00:00:03.339><c> be</c><00:00:03.520><c> looking</c><00:00:03.759><c> at</c><00:00:03.980><c> the</c><00:00:04.160><c> life</c><00:00:04.379><c> of</c><00:00:04.660><c> David</c>

00:00:04.960 --> 00:00:06.799
from<00:00:05.360><c> time</c><00:00:05.839><c> around</c><00:00:06.179><c> Bathsheba.</c>

00:00:06.860 --> 00:00:09.599
Really,<00:00:07.139><c> he's</c><00:00:07.400><c> at</c><00:00:07.580><c> the</c><00:00:07.820><c> pinnacle</c><00:00:08.160><c> of</c><00:00:08.359><c> his</c><00:00:08.619><c> power.</c>

00:00:10.199 --> 00:00:12.939
He<00:00:10.419><c> had</c><00:00:10.619><c> done</c><00:00:10.800><c> some</c><00:00:11.099><c> incredible</c><00:00:11.539><c> things</c><00:00:11.939><c> as</c><00:00:12.199><c> an</c><00:00:12.439><c> individual</c>

00:00:12.939 --> 00:00:15.820
and<00:00:13.220><c> brought</c><00:00:13.460><c> back</c><00:00:13.820><c> Israel</c><00:00:14.240><c> from</c><00:00:14.539><c> the</c><00:00:14.800><c> abyss,</c>

00:00:16.239 --> 00:00:19.399
from<00:00:16.460><c> almost</c><00:00:16.780><c> being</c><00:00:17.239><c> swallowed</c><00:00:17.660><c> up</c><00:00:17.920><c> by</c><00:00:18.480><c> their</c><00:00:18.859><c> enemies</c><00:00:19.199><c> that</c>

00:00:19.399 --> 00:00:21.500
were<00:00:19.620><c> surrounding</c><00:00:20.079><c> them.</c>

00:00:22.120 --> 00:00:24.140
And<00:00:22.720><c> he</c><00:00:23.320><c> was</c><00:00:23.579><c> at</c><00:00:23.839><c> rest.</c>

00:00:24.339 --> 00:00:28.920
He<00:00:24.559><c> had</c><00:00:24.820><c> rebuilt</c><00:00:25.219><c> Jerusalem</c><00:00:25.940><c> into</c><00:00:26.239><c> this</c><00:00:27.120><c> pretty</c><00:00:27.579><c> substantial</c><00:00:28.300><c> fortress</c>

00:00:28.920 --> 00:00:29.699
city.

00:00:30.120 --> 00:00:31.100
Things<00:00:30.379><c> were</c><00:00:30.640><c> going</c><00:00:30.820><c> good.</c>

00:00:31.199 --> 00:00:32.719
Trade<00:00:31.519><c> was</c><00:00:31.800><c> happening.</c>

00:00:32.740 --> 00:00:35.119
The<00:00:32.939><c> enemies</c><00:00:33.240><c> around</c><00:00:33.640><c> him</c><00:00:33.899><c> had</c><00:00:34.280><c> been</c><00:00:34.659><c> subdued.</c>

00:00:35.140 --> 00:00:39.500
They<00:00:35.280><c> were</c><00:00:35.560><c> either</c><00:00:35.880><c> gone</c><00:00:36.460><c> or</c><00:00:37.159><c> they</c><00:00:37.340><c> were</c><00:00:38.020><c> paying</c><00:00:38.359><c> tribute</c><00:00:38.880><c> to</c><00:00:39.200><c> David</c>

00:00:39.500 --> 00:00:40.899
and<00:00:39.719><c> to</c><00:00:39.880><c> the</c><00:00:40.079><c> Israelites.</c>

00:00:40.939 --> 00:00:43.179
So<00:00:40.960><c> pretty</c><00:00:41.979><c> good</c><00:00:42.299><c> deal.</c>

00:00:44.880 --> 00:00:45.859
I'm<00:00:45.060><c> going</c><00:00:45.179><c> to</c><00:00:45.320><c> try</c><00:00:45.539><c> some.</c>

No,<00:00:46.399><c> no,</c><00:00:46.939><c> no,</c><00:00:47.380><c> no.</c>

00:00:49.240 --> 00:00:50.820
Check<00:00:49.479><c> this</c><00:00:49.780><c> area</c><00:00:50.060><c> out</c><00:00:50.320><c> right</c><00:00:50.640><c> here.</c>

00:00:50.880 --> 00:00:52.399

00:00:52.759 --> 00:00:54.500
Look<00:00:53.179><c> at</c><00:00:53.460><c> this.</c>

00:00:54.960 --> 00:00:59.520
You<00:00:55.520><c> can</c><00:00:55.820><c> see</c><00:00:56.039><c> in</c><00:00:56.200><c> the</c><00:00:56.460><c> red</c><00:00:56.899><c> where</c><00:00:58.039><c> David</c><00:00:58.619><c> kind</c><00:00:58.880><c> of</c><00:00:59.179><c> started.</c>

00:01:00.020 --> 00:01:02.079
It<00:01:00.200><c> says</c><00:01:00.420><c> Solomon's</c><00:01:01.179><c> empire,</c><00:01:02.060><c> obviously.</c>

00:01:02.179 --> 00:01:03.880
But<00:01:02.320><c> I'm</c><00:01:02.560><c> interested,</c><00:01:03.420><c> and</c><00:01:03.600><c> we</c><00:01:03.740><c> should</c>

00:01:03.880 --> 00:01:05.599
be<00:01:04.099><c> interested</c><00:01:04.319><c> in</c><00:01:04.519><c> the</c><00:01:04.640><c> territory</c><00:01:05.159><c> of</c><00:01:05.340><c> Israel</c>

00:01:05.599 --> 00:01:07.340
before<00:01:05.980><c> David</c><00:01:06.420><c> became</c><00:01:06.939><c> king.</c>

00:01:07.680 --> 00:01:09.260
You<00:01:07.879><c> see</c><00:01:08.040><c> that</c><00:01:08.319><c> red</c><00:01:08.560><c> area</c><00:01:08.859><c> right</c><00:01:09.159><c> there?</c>

00:01:09.280 --> 00:01:11.140
And<00:01:09.439><c> we've</c><00:01:09.700><c> talked</c><00:01:09.920><c> about</c><00:01:10.200><c> that.</c>

00:01:13.219 --> 00:01:18.420
That<00:01:13.579><c> red</c><00:01:14.060><c> area</c><00:01:14.400><c> right</c><00:01:14.700><c> there</c><00:01:14.840><c> is</c><00:01:15.019><c> really</c><00:01:15.379><c> the</c><00:01:17.060><c> land</c><00:01:17.540><c> of</c><00:01:17.920><c> Saul.</c>

00:01:18.879 --> 00:01:20.680
And<00:01:19.159><c> then</c><00:01:19.340><c> that's</c><00:01:19.620><c> what</c><00:01:19.799><c> David</c><00:01:20.280><c> inherited.</c>

00:01:20.780 --> 00:01:23.599
And<00:01:20.959><c> then</c><00:01:21.260><c> all</c><00:01:21.500><c> of</c><00:01:21.680><c> the</c><00:01:21.879><c> kind</c><00:01:22.019><c> of</c><00:01:22.140><c> the</c><00:01:22.439><c> orange,</c>

00:01:23.739 --> 00:01:26.959
that's<00:01:24.060><c> the</c><00:01:24.379><c> expansion</c><00:01:24.939><c> of</c><00:01:25.739><c> David</c><00:01:26.159><c> and</c><00:01:26.519><c> Israel.</c>

00:01:27.459 --> 00:01:29.659
The<00:01:27.680><c> stuff,</c><00:01:28.099><c> like</c><00:01:28.200><c> the</c><00:01:28.439><c> lighter</c><00:01:28.700><c> yellow</c><00:01:29.060><c> up</c><00:01:29.340><c> north,</c>

00:01:32.099 --> 00:01:34.620
But<00:01:32.319><c> pretty</c><00:01:32.760><c> sizable</c><00:01:33.680><c> kingdom.</c>

00:01:35.240 --> 00:01:37.819

brothers<00:01:38.200><c> and</c><00:01:38.420><c> sisters,</c><00:01:38.659><c> because</c><00:01:39.019><c> you're</c><00:01:39.340><c> really</c>

00:01:39.900 --> 00:01:45.019

00:01:45.019 --> 00:01:46.540
civilizations.

00:01:49.359 --> 00:01:51.219
Mesopotamia,<00:01:50.180><c> the</c><00:01:50.260><c> land</c><00:01:50.480><c> between</c><00:01:50.799><c> the</c><00:01:51.000><c> rivers,</c>

00:01:51.260 --> 00:01:53.359

00:01:53.100 --> 00:01:56.459
They<00:01:53.400><c> were</c><00:01:53.579><c> doing</c><00:01:53.879><c> very,</c><00:01:54.400><c> very</c><00:01:54.780><c> well</c><00:01:55.140><c> under</c><00:01:55.480><c> David's</c><00:01:56.019><c> leadership</c>

00:01:56.459 --> 00:01:57.439
and<00:01:56.659><c> then</c><00:01:56.780><c> under</c><00:01:57.099><c> Solomon.</c>

00:01:57.819 --> 00:02:00.760
But<00:01:58.079><c> David's</c><00:01:58.379><c> going</c><00:01:58.480><c> to</c><00:01:58.579><c> be</c><00:01:58.739><c> about</c><00:01:59.019><c> 50</c><00:01:59.379><c> years</c><00:01:59.840><c> old</c><00:02:00.359><c> during</c>

00:02:02.260 --> 00:02:05.819
He's<00:02:02.859><c> probably</c><00:02:03.159><c> reigned</c><00:02:03.640><c> a</c><00:02:03.780><c> little</c><00:02:04.000><c> for</c><00:02:04.400><c> 20</c><00:02:04.879><c>-something</c><00:02:05.219><c> years.</c>

00:02:06.200 --> 00:02:09.000
He's<00:02:06.799><c> got</c><00:02:07.040><c> the</c><00:02:07.299><c> system</c><00:02:07.700><c> of</c><00:02:07.980><c> government</c><00:02:08.400><c> down.</c>

00:02:09.240 --> 00:02:11.120
His<00:02:09.539><c> enemies</c><00:02:09.840><c> have</c><00:02:10.139><c> been</c><00:02:10.379><c> subdued.</c>

00:02:11.240 --> 00:02:13.340
Things<00:02:11.520><c> are</c><00:02:11.759><c> looking</c><00:02:11.939><c> on</c><00:02:12.199><c> the</c><00:02:12.360><c> up</c><00:02:12.539><c> and</c><00:02:12.699><c> up.</c>

00:02:35.259 --> 00:02:38.659
that<00:02:35.460><c> David</c><00:02:35.780><c> sent</c><00:02:36.099><c> Joab</c><00:02:36.620><c> and</c><00:02:36.780><c> his</c><00:02:36.960><c> servants</c><00:02:37.319><c> with</c><00:02:37.620><c> him</c><00:02:37.780><c> in</c><00:02:37.960><c> all</c><00:02:38.139><c> Israel.</c>

00:02:39.060 --> 00:02:40.960
And<00:02:39.219><c> they</c><00:02:39.479><c> destroyed</c><00:02:40.020><c> the</c><00:02:40.240><c> children</c><00:02:40.479><c> of</c><00:02:40.699><c> Ammon</c>

00:02:42.979 --> 00:02:46.560
But<00:02:43.259><c> David</c><00:02:44.319><c> tarried</c><00:02:44.979><c> still</c><00:02:45.580><c> at</c><00:02:45.939><c> Jerusalem.</c>

00:02:46.560 --> 00:02:52.439
So<00:02:47.379><c> there's</c><00:02:49.639><c> been</c><00:02:50.780><c> a</c><00:02:50.879><c> little</c><00:02:51.159><c> shift,</c><00:02:51.620><c> hasn't</c><00:02:52.199><c> there,</c>

00:02:59.919 --> 00:03:01.340

00:03:01.419 --> 00:03:04.539
He's<00:03:01.659><c> letting</c><00:03:01.939><c> other</c><00:03:02.419><c> people</c><00:03:02.759><c> do</c><00:03:03.000><c> the</c><00:03:03.219><c> fighting</c><00:03:03.479><c> for</c><00:03:03.800><c> him,</c><00:03:03.960><c> particularly</c>

00:03:04.539 --> 00:03:05.719

00:03:06.719 --> 00:03:09.240
He's<00:03:07.379><c> more</c><00:03:07.659><c> of</c><00:03:07.879><c> a</c><00:03:07.960><c> political</c><00:03:08.520><c> leader</c><00:03:08.860><c> now.</c>

00:03:09.539 --> 00:03:11.539
He's<00:03:09.900><c> a</c><00:03:10.080><c> palace</c><00:03:10.479><c> ruler.</c>

00:03:11.880 --> 00:03:17.659

00:03:18.319 --> 00:03:20.520

00:03:23.300 --> 00:03:24.599
And<00:03:23.379><c> he's</c><00:03:23.520><c> going</c><00:03:23.659><c> to</c><00:03:23.719><c> look</c><00:03:23.939><c> down,</c><00:03:24.280><c> and</c><00:03:24.379><c> he's</c>

this<00:03:29.319><c> is</c><00:03:29.599><c> right</c><00:03:29.900><c> after,</c><00:03:30.340><c> really,</c><00:03:32.000><c> when</c>

00:03:32.360 --> 00:03:36.780
God,<00:03:32.800><c> through</c><00:03:33.139><c> Nathan,</c><00:03:34.919><c> told</c><00:03:35.159><c> him</c><00:03:35.400><c> about</c><00:03:35.659><c> the</c><00:03:35.900><c> covenant,</c>

And<00:03:41.520><c> that</c><00:03:41.800><c> covenant</c><00:03:42.120><c> would</c><00:03:42.439><c> not</c><00:03:42.860><c> leave</c><00:03:43.240><c> the</c><00:03:43.460><c> house</c><00:03:43.740><c> of</c><00:03:44.020><c> David.</c>

00:03:44.780 --> 00:03:46.659
And<00:03:45.000><c> we</c><00:03:45.099><c> know</c><00:03:45.340><c> that</c><00:03:45.599><c> David,</c><00:03:46.139><c> obviously,</c>

Boom.

Yep.

OK,<00:04:01.080><c> so</c><00:04:01.719><c> David,</c><00:04:02.800><c> what</c><00:04:02.960><c> is</c><00:04:03.120><c> that</c><00:04:03.400><c> second</c><00:04:03.900><c> verse?</c>

And<00:05:05.500><c> he</c><00:05:06.139><c> saw</c><00:05:06.439><c> what</c><00:05:06.639><c> he</c><00:05:06.860><c> saw.</c>

00:05:07.019 --> 00:05:08.220
And<00:05:07.180><c> he</c><00:05:07.259><c> liked</c><00:05:07.480><c> what</c><00:05:07.680><c> he</c><00:05:07.879><c> saw.</c>

00:05:08.560 --> 00:05:11.560
And<00:05:08.800><c> he</c><00:05:08.899><c> was</c><00:05:09.339><c> overcome</c><00:05:10.100><c> by</c><00:05:11.040><c> his</c><00:05:11.319><c> lust.</c>

00:05:11.579 --> 00:05:12.220
He<00:05:11.699><c> was</c><00:05:11.959><c> king.</c>

00:05:12.220 --> 00:05:13.540
He<00:05:12.319><c> could</c><00:05:12.500><c> have</c><00:05:12.779><c> anything</c><00:05:13.160><c> he</c><00:05:13.439><c> wanted.</c>

00:05:13.579 --> 00:05:15.240
I<00:05:13.839><c> mean,</c><00:05:13.839><c> just</c><00:05:14.019><c> look</c><00:05:14.180><c> at</c><00:05:14.319><c> the</c><00:05:14.500><c> words.</c>

00:05:15.619 --> 00:05:17.079
David<00:05:16.099><c> sees.</c>

00:05:17.160 --> 00:05:18.579
Then<00:05:17.360><c> he</c><00:05:17.740><c> contemplates.</c>

00:05:18.779 --> 00:05:20.860
And<00:05:18.959><c> then</c><00:05:19.139><c> he</c><00:05:19.439><c> sends</c><00:05:20.079><c> for</c><00:05:20.519><c> her.</c>

00:05:21.279 --> 00:05:27.300
And<00:05:21.519><c> so</c><00:05:21.639><c> there</c><00:05:21.839><c> is</c><00:05:22.040><c> this</c><00:05:22.339><c> process</c><00:05:23.240><c> that</c><00:05:25.779><c> David</c><00:05:26.660><c> goes</c><00:05:27.079><c> through.</c>

00:05:27.500 --> 00:05:29.639
And<00:05:27.680><c> we</c><00:05:27.819><c> go</c><00:05:28.000><c> through</c><00:05:28.180><c> the</c><00:05:28.360><c> same</c><00:05:28.600><c> process,</c><00:05:29.079><c> don't</c><00:05:29.379><c> we?</c>

00:05:29.939 --> 00:05:33.519
And<00:05:30.079><c> the</c><00:05:30.220><c> scripture</c><00:05:30.519><c> talks</c><00:05:30.899><c> about</c><00:05:31.180><c> that,</c><00:05:31.740><c> the</c><00:05:31.939><c> lust</c><00:05:32.199><c> of</c><00:05:32.399><c> the</c><00:05:32.620><c> flesh,</c>

00:05:33.680 --> 00:05:37.040
the<00:05:33.939><c> lust</c><00:05:34.259><c> of</c><00:05:34.540><c> the</c><00:05:34.759><c> eye,</c><00:05:35.939><c> and</c><00:05:36.019><c> the</c><00:05:36.220><c> pride</c><00:05:36.459><c> of</c><00:05:36.699><c> life.</c>

00:05:37.379 --> 00:05:41.339
David<00:05:37.660><c> had</c><00:05:37.879><c> all</c><00:05:38.199><c> of</c><00:05:38.399><c> these</c><00:05:38.639><c> things</c><00:05:38.959><c> in</c><00:05:39.139><c> this</c><00:05:39.439><c> one</c><00:05:40.139><c> incident.</c>

00:05:41.360 --> 00:05:44.199
And<00:05:41.500><c> he's</c><00:05:41.699><c> going</c><00:05:42.439><c> to</c><00:05:42.500><c> take</c><00:05:42.819><c> Bathsheba.</c>

00:05:44.500 --> 00:05:45.579
He<00:05:44.560><c> could</c><00:05:44.779><c> do</c><00:05:44.939><c> whatever</c><00:05:45.259><c> he</c><00:05:45.459><c> wanted.</c>

00:05:45.680 --> 00:05:46.399
He<00:05:45.699><c> was</c><00:05:45.860><c> King</c><00:05:46.120><c> David.</c>

00:05:46.500 --> 00:05:47.939
No<00:05:46.660><c> one</c><00:05:46.720><c> was</c><00:05:46.879><c> going</c><00:05:46.980><c> to</c><00:05:47.100><c> say</c><00:05:47.279><c> no</c><00:05:47.500><c> to</c><00:05:47.660><c> him.</c>

00:05:48.439 --> 00:05:49.879
Bathsheba<00:05:48.860><c> didn't</c><00:05:49.120><c> say</c><00:05:49.300><c> no</c><00:05:49.519><c> to</c><00:05:49.699><c> him.</c>

00:05:50.220 --> 00:05:53.819
And<00:05:50.360><c> we're</c><00:05:51.000><c> not</c><00:05:51.199><c> told</c><00:05:51.560><c> about</c><00:05:52.720><c> Bathsheba</c>

00:05:53.819 --> 00:05:57.819

00:06:02.639 --> 00:06:03.579
who<00:06:02.639><c> were</c><00:06:02.779><c> just</c><00:06:03.019><c> not</c><00:06:03.279><c> told.</c>

00:06:03.819 --> 00:06:05.899
We<00:06:03.980><c> do</c><00:06:04.300><c> know</c><00:06:04.579><c> that</c><00:06:04.959><c> the</c><00:06:05.120><c> sin</c><00:06:05.319><c> occurred.</c>

00:06:06.319 --> 00:06:07.319
Adultery<00:06:06.860><c> happened.</c>

00:06:07.399 --> 00:06:09.680
There<00:06:07.500><c> was</c><00:06:07.819><c> a</c><00:06:08.000><c> child</c><00:06:08.519><c> involved.</c>

00:06:10.039 --> 00:06:16.360
So<00:06:10.579><c> this</c><00:06:11.120><c> one</c><00:06:11.720><c> act,</c><00:06:13.060><c> this</c><00:06:13.360><c> one</c><00:06:13.660><c> act</c><00:06:13.939><c> of</c><00:06:14.259><c> weakness</c><00:06:14.699><c> from</c><00:06:14.980><c> David,</c>

00:06:17.879 --> 00:06:19.879
it's<00:06:18.420><c> just</c><00:06:18.600><c> going</c><00:06:18.759><c> to</c><00:06:18.879><c> turn</c><00:06:19.139><c> his</c><00:06:19.379><c> whole</c><00:06:19.680><c> life</c>

00:06:24.019 --> 00:06:27.699
Yeah,<00:06:24.540><c> you</c><00:06:24.540><c> kind</c><00:06:24.680><c> of</c><00:06:24.959><c> wish</c><00:06:25.220><c> David</c><00:06:25.740><c> had</c><00:06:26.199><c> an</c><00:06:26.540><c> Abigail</c><00:06:27.019><c> at</c><00:06:27.259><c> this</c><00:06:27.500><c> time,</c>

00:06:27.819 --> 00:06:29.379
like,<00:06:28.060><c> hey,</c><00:06:28.540><c> just</c><00:06:28.759><c> stay</c><00:06:28.920><c> in</c><00:06:29.139><c> bed.</c>

00:06:29.699 --> 00:06:30.420
You<00:06:29.839><c> know</c><00:06:29.959><c> what</c><00:06:30.060><c> I'm</c><00:06:30.139><c> saying?</c>

00:06:30.899 --> 00:06:31.439
And<00:06:31.120><c> he</c><00:06:31.220><c> did.</c>

00:06:31.439 --> 00:06:33.699
Abigail<00:06:31.879><c> prevented</c><00:06:32.399><c> him</c><00:06:32.759><c> from</c><00:06:33.399><c> sinning,</c>

00:06:33.839 --> 00:06:37.199

00:06:37.360 --> 00:06:39.120
But<00:06:37.439><c> David</c><00:06:37.920><c> had</c><00:06:38.139><c> no</c><00:06:38.319><c> one</c><00:06:38.459><c> to</c><00:06:38.660><c> stop</c><00:06:38.920><c> him.</c>

00:06:39.300 --> 00:06:42.560
He<00:06:39.300><c> had</c><00:06:39.420><c> no</c><00:06:39.939><c> one</c><00:06:40.240><c> to</c><00:06:40.480><c> prevent</c><00:06:40.759><c> him</c><00:06:41.000><c> from</c><00:06:41.199><c> doing</c><00:06:41.420><c> what</c><00:06:41.620><c> he</c><00:06:41.839><c> wanted.</c>

00:06:42.639 --> 00:06:45.620
And<00:06:42.819><c> he</c><00:06:42.920><c> let</c><00:06:43.060><c> his</c><00:06:43.399><c> flesh</c><00:06:43.600><c> and</c><00:06:43.800><c> let</c><00:06:44.000><c> his</c><00:06:44.240><c> lust</c><00:06:44.459><c> get</c><00:06:45.199><c> the</c><00:06:45.439><c> better</c>

of<00:06:45.800><c> him.</c>

00:06:46.699 --> 00:06:50.420
And<00:06:47.040><c> it</c><00:06:47.139><c> was</c><00:06:47.439><c> obviously</c><00:06:47.959><c> a</c><00:06:48.259><c> clear</c><00:06:48.439><c> abuse</c><00:06:48.860><c> of</c><00:06:49.139><c> royal</c><00:06:49.379><c> power.</c>

00:06:50.900 --> 00:06:54.420
David<00:06:51.420><c> was</c><00:06:51.939><c> treating</c><00:06:52.220><c> his</c><00:06:52.500><c> subjects</c><00:06:52.819><c> as</c><00:06:53.079><c> personal</c><00:06:53.480><c> property.</c>

00:06:54.660 --> 00:06:56.600
I<00:06:54.899><c> can</c><00:06:55.079><c> have</c><00:06:55.240><c> whatever</c><00:06:55.540><c> I</c><00:06:55.839><c> want.</c>

00:06:57.180 --> 00:06:59.699
It's<00:06:57.420><c> kind</c><00:06:57.560><c> of</c><00:06:57.879><c> like</c><00:06:57.879><c> just</c><00:06:58.600><c> kind</c><00:06:58.779><c> of</c><00:06:58.899><c> popped</c><00:06:59.040><c> into</c><00:06:59.279><c> my</c><00:06:59.540><c> mind.</c>

00:06:59.699 --> 00:07:02.660
I<00:06:59.800><c> remember</c><00:07:00.019><c> the</c><00:07:01.680><c> centurion.</c>

00:07:02.740 --> 00:07:06.720
The<00:07:03.040><c> centurion</c><00:07:03.480><c> says,</c><00:07:04.079><c> with</c><00:07:04.620><c> Jesus,</c><00:07:05.779><c> he</c><00:07:06.019><c> heals</c><00:07:06.220><c> his</c><00:07:06.519><c> son,</c>

00:07:07.040 --> 00:07:07.879
but<00:07:07.160><c> not</c><00:07:07.319><c> his</c><00:07:07.379><c> son,</c><00:07:07.500><c> his</c><00:07:07.720><c> servant.</c>

00:07:08.100 --> 00:07:11.100
He<00:07:08.100><c> says,</c><00:07:08.959><c> I</c><00:07:09.319><c> tell</c><00:07:09.579><c> this</c><00:07:09.860><c> man</c><00:07:10.120><c> go,</c><00:07:10.420><c> and</c><00:07:10.540><c> he</c><00:07:10.680><c> goes.</c>

00:07:11.399 --> 00:07:14.420
I<00:07:11.639><c> tell</c><00:07:11.899><c> another</c><00:07:12.339><c> man</c><00:07:12.620><c> to</c><00:07:12.920><c> come,</c><00:07:13.620><c> and</c><00:07:13.759><c> he</c><00:07:14.019><c> comes.</c>

00:07:14.779 --> 00:07:16.980
So<00:07:15.019><c> he</c><00:07:15.180><c> had</c><00:07:15.439><c> authority,</c><00:07:16.220><c> complete</c><00:07:16.459><c> authority</c>

00:07:16.980 --> 00:07:18.579
over<00:07:17.339><c> his</c><00:07:17.579><c> soldiers,</c><00:07:18.040><c> the</c><00:07:18.199><c> centurion.</c>

00:07:18.939 --> 00:07:21.040
He<00:07:19.160><c> could</c><00:07:19.160><c> order</c><00:07:19.519><c> them</c><00:07:19.800><c> to</c><00:07:20.300><c> be</c><00:07:20.680><c> killed.</c>

00:07:21.500 --> 00:07:23.459
The<00:07:21.759><c> same</c><00:07:21.899><c> was</c><00:07:22.160><c> true</c><00:07:22.319><c> with</c><00:07:22.660><c> David.</c>

00:07:23.620 --> 00:07:25.759
And<00:07:23.860><c> David</c><00:07:24.079><c> used</c><00:07:24.420><c> it</c><00:07:24.759><c> for</c><00:07:25.220><c> wickedness.</c>

00:07:25.759 --> 00:07:29.779

00:07:39.259 --> 00:07:41.439
It<00:07:39.600><c> is</c><00:07:39.740><c> so</c><00:07:40.120><c> true</c><00:07:40.399><c> of</c><00:07:40.699><c> sin.</c>

00:07:41.939 --> 00:07:45.360
We<00:07:42.240><c> often,</c><00:07:43.300><c> we're</c><00:07:43.459><c> in</c><00:07:43.660><c> the</c><00:07:43.879><c> moment,</c><00:07:44.879><c> and</c><00:07:45.079><c> we</c>

00:07:49.480 --> 00:07:52.480
Maybe<00:07:49.860><c> sometimes</c><00:07:50.379><c> we</c><00:07:50.620><c> do,</c><00:07:50.800><c> but</c><00:07:50.939><c> it's</c><00:07:51.139><c> just</c><00:07:51.420><c> a</c><00:07:51.519><c> little</c><00:07:51.740><c> blip.</c>

00:07:52.600 --> 00:07:54.379
And<00:07:52.839><c> we</c><00:07:53.000><c> continue</c><00:07:53.519><c> down</c><00:07:53.879><c> this</c><00:07:54.160><c> path.</c>

00:07:54.379 --> 00:07:58.759

00:07:58.759 --> 00:08:00.939
nearly<00:07:59.079><c> destroying</c><00:07:59.600><c> the</c><00:07:59.819><c> country.</c>

00:08:04.740 --> 00:08:05.240
his<00:08:05.040><c> reign.</c>

00:08:05.300 --> 00:08:06.740
I'm<00:08:05.680><c> just</c><00:08:05.899><c> going</c><00:08:06.019><c> to</c><00:08:06.060><c> do</c><00:08:06.199><c> what</c><00:08:06.379><c> I</c><00:08:06.579><c> want.</c>

00:08:06.800 --> 00:08:10.800
I'm<00:08:06.899><c> going</c><00:08:06.980><c> to</c><00:08:07.100><c> try</c><00:08:07.240><c> to</c><00:08:08.399><c> take</c><00:08:09.399><c> control</c><00:08:09.899><c> of</c><00:08:10.100><c> this</c><00:08:10.199><c> situation.</c>

00:08:10.879 --> 00:08:13.540
And<00:08:10.980><c> he</c><00:08:11.139><c> does</c><00:08:11.420><c> take</c><00:08:11.699><c> control</c><00:08:12.100><c> of</c><00:08:12.279><c> the</c><00:08:12.439><c> situation.</c>

00:08:13.879 --> 00:08:16.040
Now<00:08:14.319><c> here</c><00:08:14.560><c> comes</c><00:08:14.839><c> the</c><00:08:15.139><c> cover</c><00:08:15.399><c>-up.</c>

00:08:16.439 --> 00:08:18.519
And<00:08:16.699><c> this</c><00:08:16.899><c> is</c><00:08:17.180><c> where</c><00:08:17.459><c> you</c><00:08:17.879><c> get</c><00:08:18.079><c> in</c><00:08:18.300><c> trouble.</c>

00:08:18.600 --> 00:08:21.139
This<00:08:18.819><c> is</c><00:08:19.040><c> like</c><00:08:19.240><c> a</c><00:08:19.459><c> Watergate</c><00:08:19.899><c> situation,</c>

00:08:21.139 --> 00:08:25.040

00:08:26.939 --> 00:08:29.620
just<00:08:27.199><c> like</c><00:08:27.360><c> this</c><00:08:27.620><c> rinky</c><00:08:27.939><c>-dink</c><00:08:28.120><c> little</c><00:08:28.439><c> break</c><00:08:28.720><c>-in</c><00:08:28.860><c> thing.</c>

00:08:30.139 --> 00:08:32.919
But<00:08:30.319><c> the</c><00:08:30.639><c> thing</c><00:08:30.779><c> that</c><00:08:31.019><c> got</c><00:08:31.160><c> Nixon</c><00:08:31.459><c> in</c><00:08:31.720><c> trouble</c><00:08:31.959><c> and</c><00:08:32.159><c> everybody</c><00:08:32.559><c> else</c>

00:08:32.919 --> 00:08:34.179
was<00:08:33.179><c> the</c><00:08:33.440><c> cover</c><00:08:33.740><c>-up.</c>

00:08:34.399 --> 00:08:35.419
That's<00:08:34.820><c> what</c><00:08:35.019><c> got</c><00:08:35.200><c> him.</c>

00:08:35.419 --> 00:08:37.860
He<00:08:35.559><c> was</c><00:08:35.860><c> trying</c><00:08:36.059><c> to</c><00:08:36.379><c> cover</c><00:08:36.559><c> this</c><00:08:36.799><c> whole</c><00:08:37.080><c> thing</c><00:08:37.340><c> up,</c>

00:08:38.039 --> 00:08:39.860
because<00:08:38.340><c> he</c><00:08:38.500><c> didn't</c><00:08:38.700><c> want</c><00:08:38.980><c> it</c><00:08:39.120><c> to</c><00:08:39.299><c> come</c><00:08:39.539><c> out</c>

00:08:39.860 --> 00:08:45.200
that<00:08:40.759><c> they</c><00:08:41.860><c> were</c><00:08:42.200><c> involved</c><00:08:42.620><c> in</c><00:08:42.799><c> a</c><00:08:42.980><c> break</c><00:08:43.279><c>-in</c><00:08:43.460><c> of</c><00:08:44.039><c> the</c><00:08:44.759><c> Democrat</c>

National<00:08:45.720><c> Committee.</c>

00:08:46.320 --> 00:08:47.399
So<00:08:46.519><c> they</c><00:08:46.700><c> covered</c><00:08:47.019><c> it</c><00:08:47.279><c> up.</c>

00:08:47.399 --> 00:08:49.240
They<00:08:47.580><c> did</c><00:08:47.820><c> this</c><00:08:48.059><c> whole</c><00:08:48.340><c> thing</c><00:08:48.580><c> and</c><00:08:48.759><c> everything</c><00:08:49.019><c> else</c>

00:08:49.240 --> 00:08:50.320

00:08:50.320 --> 00:08:53.000
And<00:08:50.539><c> eventually,</c><00:08:51.500><c> despite</c><00:08:51.779><c> the</c><00:08:52.059><c> cover</c><00:08:52.299><c>-up</c><00:08:52.399><c> by</c><00:08:52.679><c> David,</c>

00:09:00.580 --> 00:09:04.580
He<00:09:00.879><c> calls</c><00:09:01.179><c> Uriah</c><00:09:01.659><c> back</c><00:09:02.039><c> and</c><00:09:02.200><c> says,</c><00:09:02.679><c> hey,</c><00:09:03.720><c> go</c><00:09:04.000><c> eat</c><00:09:04.200><c> and</c><00:09:04.399><c> drink.</c>

He's<00:09:43.139><c> going</c><00:09:43.220><c> to</c><00:09:43.340><c> kill</c><00:09:43.460><c> him.</c>

00:09:44.179 --> 00:09:47.139
And<00:09:44.700><c> he</c><00:09:44.860><c> uses</c><00:09:45.320><c> Joab</c><00:09:45.899><c> and</c><00:09:46.159><c> he</c><00:09:46.240><c> uses</c><00:09:46.679><c> the</c><00:09:47.019><c> war.</c>

00:09:47.139 --> 00:09:49.039
Just<00:09:47.320><c> think</c><00:09:47.539><c> about</c><00:09:47.740><c> this</c><00:09:48.019><c> manipulation,</c><00:09:48.899><c> brothers</c>

00:09:49.039 --> 00:09:50.159
and<00:09:49.279><c> sisters.</c>

00:09:50.179 --> 00:09:54.480
He<00:09:50.659><c> purposely</c><00:09:51.220><c> put</c><00:09:51.620><c> Uriah</c><00:09:52.700><c> up</c><00:09:53.340><c> front</c><00:09:53.620><c> near</c><00:09:53.879><c> the</c><00:09:54.179><c> walls</c>

00:09:54.480 --> 00:09:56.419
where<00:09:54.720><c> the</c><00:09:55.000><c> archers</c><00:09:55.259><c> would</c><00:09:55.460><c> get</c><00:09:55.679><c> him.</c>

00:09:56.840 --> 00:09:58.080
Sitting<00:09:57.100><c> duck.</c>

00:10:00.080 --> 00:10:01.639
And<00:10:00.080><c> Joab</c><00:10:00.759><c> was</c><00:10:01.039><c> part</c><00:10:01.279><c> of</c><00:10:01.480><c> this.</c>

00:10:01.779 --> 00:10:04.159
But<00:10:01.940><c> this</c><00:10:02.139><c> was</c><00:10:02.340><c> right</c><00:10:02.600><c> up</c><00:10:02.740><c> Joab's</c><00:10:03.460><c> alley.</c>

00:10:04.600 --> 00:10:10.279
Joab<00:10:04.980><c> was</c><00:10:05.240><c> always</c><00:10:05.679><c> into</c><00:10:05.980><c> this</c><00:10:06.240><c> kind</c><00:10:06.580><c> of</c><00:10:09.059><c> little</c><00:10:09.539><c> dock</c><00:10:09.860><c> deals</c>

00:10:10.279 --> 00:10:11.200
going<00:10:10.620><c> on,</c>

00:10:11.379 --> 00:10:11.960
shenanigans.

00:10:11.980 --> 00:10:14.559
And<00:10:12.159><c> we're</c><00:10:12.559><c> going</c><00:10:12.639><c> to</c><00:10:12.679><c> look</c><00:10:12.840><c> at</c><00:10:12.980><c> a</c><00:10:13.080><c> couple</c><00:10:13.340><c> other</c><00:10:13.679><c> things</c><00:10:13.940><c> with</c><00:10:14.200><c> Joab</c>

00:10:14.559 --> 00:10:15.019
as<00:10:14.799><c> well.</c>

00:10:15.279 --> 00:10:16.480
But<00:10:15.659><c> it's</c><00:10:16.200><c> done.</c>

00:10:16.480 --> 00:10:17.899
The<00:10:17.179><c> deed</c><00:10:17.399><c> is</c><00:10:17.720><c> done.</c>

00:10:18.100 --> 00:10:19.600
Uriah<00:10:18.559><c> is</c><00:10:18.799><c> killed.</c>

00:10:19.679 --> 00:10:22.840
And<00:10:19.820><c> even</c><00:10:20.220><c> David</c><00:10:20.860><c> feigns</c><00:10:21.419><c> aggravation.</c>

00:10:22.940 --> 00:10:25.700
He<00:10:23.279><c> feigns</c><00:10:23.679><c> being</c><00:10:24.139><c> upset</c><00:10:24.659><c> too.</c>

00:10:26.299 --> 00:10:28.879
Because<00:10:26.679><c> Joab</c><00:10:26.960><c> even</c><00:10:27.379><c> says,</c><00:10:28.080><c> if</c><00:10:28.340><c> he</c><00:10:28.659><c> says,</c>

00:10:29.220 --> 00:10:32.419
why<00:10:29.220><c> did</c><00:10:29.419><c> you</c><00:10:29.620><c> put</c><00:10:29.899><c> the</c><00:10:30.139><c> men</c><00:10:30.379><c> up</c><00:10:31.059><c> so</c><00:10:31.480><c> close</c><00:10:31.700><c> to</c><00:10:31.919><c> the</c><00:10:32.120><c> wall?</c>

00:10:32.720 --> 00:10:35.460
Joab<00:10:33.220><c> already</c><00:10:33.720><c> had</c><00:10:33.940><c> an</c><00:10:34.139><c> answer</c><00:10:34.379><c> for</c><00:10:34.679><c> him.</c>

00:10:36.039 --> 00:10:38.340
Joab<00:10:36.620><c> knew</c><00:10:36.860><c> the</c><00:10:37.059><c> guy</c><00:10:37.320><c> he</c><00:10:37.480><c> was</c><00:10:37.720><c> dealing</c><00:10:38.019><c> with.</c>

00:10:38.620 --> 00:10:40.500
David<00:10:39.100><c> feigned</c><00:10:39.700><c> incredulously.</c>

00:10:40.779 --> 00:10:42.919
Like,<00:10:41.000><c> how</c><00:10:41.139><c> could</c><00:10:41.340><c> you</c><00:10:41.539><c> do</c><00:10:41.820><c> such</c><00:10:42.039><c> a</c><00:10:42.200><c> thing?</c>

00:10:43.899 --> 00:10:45.200
First<00:10:44.200><c> I'm</c><00:10:44.399><c> hearing</c><00:10:44.740><c> of</c><00:10:44.960><c> it.</c>

00:10:45.200 --> 00:10:46.320
This<00:10:45.460><c> is</c><00:10:45.720><c> outrageous.</c>

00:10:46.759 --> 00:10:49.500
Meanwhile,<00:10:47.320><c> he</c><00:10:47.500><c> was</c><00:10:47.759><c> involved</c><00:10:48.200><c> in</c><00:10:48.360><c> the</c><00:10:48.519><c> whole</c><00:10:48.740><c> thing.</c>

00:10:49.779 --> 00:10:53.159
So<00:10:49.779><c> yeah,</c><00:10:50.379><c> not</c><00:10:51.039><c> David's</c><00:10:51.700><c> proudest</c><00:10:52.039><c> moment,</c><00:10:52.559><c> brothers</c><00:10:52.679><c> and</c><00:10:52.940><c> sisters.</c>

00:10:53.220 --> 00:10:54.740
But<00:10:53.379><c> here's</c><00:10:53.700><c> the</c><00:10:53.879><c> thing.</c>

00:10:55.440 --> 00:10:56.659
It's<00:10:55.799><c> in</c><00:10:56.100><c> scripture.</c>

00:10:56.919 --> 00:10:59.039
And<00:10:57.159><c> it's</c><00:10:57.519><c> clear</c><00:10:57.799><c> in</c><00:10:58.080><c> scripture.</c>

00:10:59.279 --> 00:11:03.519
But<00:10:59.659><c> his</c><00:11:00.100><c> whole</c><00:11:00.539><c> life,</c><00:11:00.940><c> this</c><00:11:01.179><c> does</c><00:11:01.500><c> not</c><00:11:01.740><c> define</c><00:11:02.220><c> his</c><00:11:02.460><c> whole</c><00:11:02.679><c> life.</c>

00:11:03.700 --> 00:11:06.860
This<00:11:04.039><c> was</c><00:11:04.320><c> a</c><00:11:04.419><c> mistake,</c><00:11:05.240><c> a</c><00:11:05.659><c> bad</c><00:11:05.860><c> mistake.</c>

00:11:07.080 --> 00:11:09.759
But<00:11:07.399><c> at</c><00:11:07.720><c> the</c><00:11:07.919><c> end,</c><00:11:08.519><c> God</c><00:11:08.779><c> is</c><00:11:09.000><c> going</c><00:11:09.120><c> to</c><00:11:09.320><c> forgive</c><00:11:09.539><c> him</c>

00:11:09.759 --> 00:11:11.679
for<00:11:10.059><c> his</c><00:11:10.299><c> sin,</c><00:11:10.639><c> for</c><00:11:10.860><c> that</c><00:11:11.059><c> actual</c><00:11:11.399><c> sin.</c>

00:11:11.879 --> 00:11:13.100
He<00:11:11.980><c> says,</c><00:11:12.279><c> I've</c><00:11:12.659><c> forgiven</c><00:11:12.899><c> you.</c>

00:11:13.100 --> 00:11:14.620
You're<00:11:13.279><c> not</c><00:11:13.440><c> going</c><00:11:13.600><c> to</c><00:11:13.759><c> die.</c>

00:11:14.819 --> 00:11:19.000
But<00:11:15.159><c> there</c><00:11:15.960><c> was</c><00:11:16.240><c> going</c><00:11:16.500><c> to</c><00:11:16.620><c> be</c><00:11:16.840><c> consequences</c><00:11:17.480><c> of</c><00:11:18.179><c> this</c><00:11:18.419><c> wickedness.</c>

00:11:19.500 --> 00:11:24.820
Not<00:11:20.179><c> only</c><00:11:20.519><c> was</c><00:11:20.860><c> it</c><00:11:21.159><c> adultery,</c><00:11:22.879><c> but</c><00:11:23.120><c> it</c><00:11:23.179><c> was</c><00:11:23.460><c> also</c><00:11:23.799><c> murder.</c>

00:11:26.040 --> 00:11:28.100
Adultery<00:11:26.720><c> and</c><00:11:27.059><c> murder.</c>

00:11:29.779 --> 00:11:31.200
Not<00:11:30.120><c> great.</c>

00:11:31.600 --> 00:11:34.580
What<00:11:32.279><c> a</c><00:11:32.679><c> combo,</c><00:11:33.559><c> brother</c><00:11:33.779><c> Butch.</c>

00:11:34.860 --> 00:11:35.919
Goodness.

00:11:36.240 --> 00:11:39.019
All<00:11:36.419><c> right,</c><00:11:36.600><c> so</c><00:11:37.000><c> he</c><00:11:37.159><c> tries</c><00:11:37.440><c> to</c><00:11:37.600><c> do</c><00:11:37.720><c> all</c><00:11:37.919><c> these</c><00:11:38.139><c> tricks.</c>

00:11:39.100 --> 00:11:41.460
And<00:11:39.259><c> here's</c><00:11:39.399><c> the</c><00:11:39.539><c> other</c><00:11:39.720><c> thing</c><00:11:39.860><c> too,</c><00:11:40.279><c> brothers</c><00:11:40.419><c> and</c><00:11:40.700><c> sisters.</c>

00:11:42.379 --> 00:11:44.139
Uriah<00:11:42.919><c> was</c><00:11:43.259><c> a</c><00:11:43.519><c> Gentile.</c>

00:11:44.159 --> 00:11:46.139
He<00:11:44.279><c> was</c><00:11:44.419><c> one</c><00:11:44.580><c> of</c><00:11:44.679><c> the</c><00:11:44.860><c> mighty</c><00:11:45.120><c> men,</c><00:11:45.399><c> by</c><00:11:45.659><c> the</c><00:11:45.840><c> way.</c>

00:11:46.279 --> 00:11:47.500
He<00:11:46.559><c> was</c><00:11:46.820><c> no</c><00:11:47.139><c> joke.</c>

00:11:47.740 --> 00:11:50.120
He<00:11:47.879><c> wasn't</c><00:11:48.200><c> just</c><00:11:48.500><c> kind</c><00:11:48.720><c> of</c><00:11:48.820><c> like</c><00:11:49.120><c> an</c><00:11:49.539><c> afterthought.</c>

00:11:50.559 --> 00:11:54.179
He<00:11:50.840><c> was</c><00:11:51.120><c> one</c><00:11:51.360><c> of</c><00:11:51.600><c> David's</c><00:11:52.320><c> best</c><00:11:53.000><c> soldiers.</c>

00:11:54.720 --> 00:11:56.299
Loyal<00:11:55.259><c> soldier.</c>

00:11:57.299 --> 00:11:58.620
And<00:11:57.460><c> he</c><00:11:57.539><c> was</c><00:11:57.799><c> a</c><00:11:57.960><c> Gentile.</c>

00:11:58.840 --> 00:12:03.080
And<00:11:59.080><c> David</c><00:11:59.220><c> had</c><00:11:59.419><c> a</c><00:11:59.500><c> lot</c><00:11:59.720><c> of</c><00:12:00.039><c> Gentiles</c><00:12:00.759><c> that</c><00:12:01.419><c> were</c><00:12:01.720><c> close</c><00:12:02.019><c> to</c><00:12:02.159><c> him.</c>

00:12:03.220 --> 00:12:06.220
And<00:12:03.440><c> so</c><00:12:03.759><c> there's</c><00:12:04.620><c> that</c><00:12:04.899><c> little</c><00:12:05.139><c> aspect</c><00:12:05.639><c> of</c><00:12:05.799><c> it</c><00:12:05.919><c> as</c><00:12:06.080><c> well.</c>

00:12:06.259 --> 00:12:08.659
David<00:12:06.580><c> was</c><00:12:06.860><c> supposed</c><00:12:07.059><c> to</c><00:12:07.179><c> be</c><00:12:07.340><c> better</c><00:12:07.580><c> than</c><00:12:07.860><c> this.</c>

00:12:08.740 --> 00:12:11.460
He<00:12:09.019><c> was</c><00:12:09.240><c> supposed</c><00:12:09.480><c> to</c><00:12:09.580><c> be</c><00:12:09.679><c> better</c><00:12:09.940><c> than</c><00:12:10.120><c> this,</c><00:12:10.360><c> and</c><00:12:10.460><c> he</c><00:12:10.539><c> wasn't.</c>

00:12:11.720 --> 00:12:13.659
All<00:12:11.860><c> right,</c><00:12:12.419><c> so</c><00:12:12.759><c> Uriah</c><00:12:13.179><c> dies.</c>

00:12:13.960 --> 00:12:15.500
David<00:12:14.240><c> comes</c><00:12:14.659><c> and</c><00:12:14.860><c> says,</c><00:12:14.980><c> hey,</c><00:12:15.259><c> all</c><00:12:15.399><c> right,</c>

00:12:15.519 --> 00:12:19.399

all<00:12:31.980><c> the</c><00:12:32.220><c> stuff</c><00:12:32.399><c> done</c><00:12:32.679><c> in</c><00:12:32.940><c> darkness.</c>

00:12:38.159 --> 00:12:41.000

00:12:41.259 --> 00:12:42.159
Here<00:12:41.460><c> it</c><00:12:41.600><c> is.</c>

00:12:42.580 --> 00:12:47.240
Now<00:12:42.740><c> when</c><00:12:42.980><c> the</c><00:12:43.200><c> morning</c><00:12:43.480><c> was</c><00:12:43.940><c> past,</c><00:12:45.039><c> after</c><00:12:45.360><c> all</c><00:12:45.740><c> this</c><00:12:45.960><c> was</c><00:12:46.259><c> done,</c>

00:12:47.860 --> 00:12:52.019
David<00:12:48.320><c> sent</c><00:12:48.840><c> and</c><00:12:49.320><c> fetched</c><00:12:49.940><c> her</c><00:12:50.279><c> to</c><00:12:50.480><c> his</c><00:12:50.779><c> house,</c>

00:12:52.080 --> 00:12:56.580
and<00:12:52.279><c> she</c><00:12:52.580><c> became</c><00:12:53.100><c> his</c><00:12:53.460><c> wife</c><00:12:54.139><c> and</c><00:12:54.980><c> bear</c><00:12:55.200><c> him</c><00:12:55.519><c> a</c><00:12:55.720><c> son.</c>

00:12:58.139 --> 00:13:04.659
But<00:12:58.500><c> the</c><00:12:58.860><c> thing</c><00:12:59.220><c> that</c><00:12:59.559><c> David</c><00:13:00.039><c> had</c><00:13:00.480><c> done</c><00:13:01.679><c> displeased</c><00:13:03.259><c> the</c><00:13:03.559><c> Lord.</c>

00:13:05.200 --> 00:13:06.500
Uh<00:13:05.519><c>-oh.</c>

00:13:06.819 --> 00:13:11.299
After<00:13:07.179><c> all</c><00:13:07.700><c> is</c><00:13:07.860><c> done,</c><00:13:08.220><c> all</c><00:13:08.539><c> the</c><00:13:08.879><c> power</c><00:13:09.360><c> of</c><00:13:09.779><c> man</c><00:13:10.299><c> is</c><00:13:11.080><c> stated.</c>

00:13:11.419 --> 00:13:14.500
All<00:13:11.600><c> the</c><00:13:11.879><c> darkness</c><00:13:12.279><c> of</c><00:13:12.639><c> mankind</c><00:13:13.179><c> is</c><00:13:13.600><c> stated</c><00:13:13.720><c> very</c><00:13:14.200><c> clearly</c>

00:13:14.500 --> 00:13:16.639
in<00:13:14.919><c> the</c><00:13:15.100><c> 11th</c><00:13:15.519><c> chapter,</c><00:13:16.639><c> right?</c>

00:13:16.659 --> 00:13:22.460
But<00:13:16.960><c> God</c><00:13:17.320><c> has</c><00:13:17.639><c> the</c><00:13:17.919><c> final</c><00:13:18.240><c> word,</c><00:13:19.960><c> and</c><00:13:20.240><c> it</c><00:13:20.799><c> displeased</c><00:13:21.399><c> him.</c>

00:13:22.539 --> 00:13:25.919
And<00:13:22.740><c> so</c><00:13:22.840><c> this</c><00:13:23.059><c> is</c><00:13:23.340><c> where</c><00:13:24.120><c> Nathan</c><00:13:24.679><c> is</c><00:13:24.899><c> going</c><00:13:25.059><c> to</c><00:13:25.179><c> make</c><00:13:25.360><c> an</c><00:13:25.539><c> appearance.</c>

00:13:26.240 --> 00:13:28.539
God<00:13:26.460><c> is</c><00:13:26.679><c> going</c><00:13:26.799><c> to</c><00:13:26.940><c> send</c><00:13:27.100><c> Nathan</c><00:13:27.559><c> to</c><00:13:28.159><c> David,</c>

00:13:28.899 --> 00:13:33.139
and<00:13:29.299><c> God</c><00:13:29.860><c> in</c><00:13:30.080><c> his</c><00:13:30.460><c> wisdom</c><00:13:31.139><c> is</c><00:13:31.879><c> going</c><00:13:32.200><c> to</c><00:13:32.600><c> use</c>

00:13:33.139 --> 00:13:39.279
David's<00:13:34.200><c> sense</c><00:13:34.320><c> of</c><00:13:34.879><c> justice</c><00:13:35.440><c> and</c><00:13:35.840><c> morality</c><00:13:36.500><c> to</c><00:13:37.519><c> condemn</c><00:13:38.100><c> himself.</c>

00:13:40.519 --> 00:13:43.460
David<00:13:40.940><c> condemns</c><00:13:41.460><c> himself,</c><00:13:42.080><c> no</c><00:13:42.279><c> one</c><00:13:42.500><c> else.</c>

00:13:43.720 --> 00:13:44.980
All<00:13:43.940><c> right.</c>

00:13:45.340 --> 00:13:49.919
So<00:13:45.860><c> David's</c><00:13:48.179><c> going</c><00:13:48.360><c> to</c><00:13:48.500><c> use</c><00:13:48.679><c> military</c><00:13:49.200><c> chain</c><00:13:49.460><c> of</c><00:13:49.659><c> command</c>

00:13:49.919 --> 00:13:53.299
for<00:13:50.159><c> personal</c><00:13:50.620><c> crime,</c><00:13:52.559><c> corrupts</c><00:13:52.980><c> the</c><00:13:53.159><c> army.</c>

00:13:53.399 --> 00:13:55.159
That's<00:13:53.700><c> corruption,</c><00:13:54.399><c> sure.</c>

00:13:55.179 --> 00:13:57.559
This<00:13:55.480><c> is</c><00:13:55.740><c> the</c><00:13:55.860><c> other</c><00:13:56.100><c> thing,</c><00:13:56.460><c> too,</c><00:13:56.500><c> in</c><00:13:56.779><c> wars.</c>

00:13:58.000 --> 00:14:02.539
The<00:13:58.480><c> first</c><00:13:58.840><c> casualty</c><00:13:59.440><c> in</c><00:13:59.700><c> war,</c><00:14:00.980><c> the</c><00:14:01.360><c> truth,</c><00:14:02.240><c> right?</c>

00:14:02.539 --> 00:14:04.240
All<00:14:02.740><c> kinds</c><00:14:03.120><c> of</c><00:14:03.240><c> stuff</c><00:14:03.460><c> happens</c><00:14:03.860><c> in</c><00:14:04.120><c> war</c>

00:14:04.240 --> 00:14:07.259
that<00:14:04.360><c> we</c><00:14:04.539><c> never</c><00:14:04.820><c> find</c><00:14:05.139><c> out</c><00:14:05.379><c> about</c><00:14:05.740><c> or</c><00:14:06.279><c> we</c><00:14:06.460><c> find</c><00:14:06.720><c> out</c><00:14:06.960><c> later,</c>

00:14:07.360 --> 00:14:08.460
and<00:14:07.679><c> that's</c><00:14:07.960><c> what</c><00:14:08.179><c> happens.</c>

00:14:08.519 --> 00:14:10.860
But<00:14:08.700><c> he</c><00:14:09.019><c> used</c><00:14:09.419><c> the</c><00:14:09.820><c> army</c><00:14:10.059><c> and</c><00:14:10.299><c> used</c><00:14:10.559><c> people</c>

00:14:10.860 --> 00:14:13.080
for<00:14:11.059><c> his</c><00:14:11.240><c> own</c><00:14:11.539><c> personal</c><00:14:11.840><c> gratification.</c>

00:14:13.139 --> 00:14:13.860
It<00:14:13.220><c> was</c><00:14:13.419><c> corruption.</c>

00:14:14.139 --> 00:14:16.620
It<00:14:14.200><c> was</c><00:14:14.360><c> an</c><00:14:14.639><c> abuse</c><00:14:14.940><c> of</c><00:14:15.200><c> power</c><00:14:15.539><c> on</c><00:14:15.840><c> David.</c>

00:14:17.220 --> 00:14:19.659
And<00:14:17.220><c> this</c><00:14:17.379><c> is,</c><00:14:17.600><c> you</c><00:14:17.600><c> know,</c><00:14:17.919><c> kings</c><00:14:18.100><c> can</c><00:14:18.340><c> weaponize</c><00:14:19.000><c> loyalty.</c>

00:14:19.960 --> 00:14:22.120
If<00:14:20.120><c> we</c><00:14:20.320><c> look</c><00:14:20.460><c> at</c><00:14:20.639><c> history</c><00:14:21.120><c> of</c><00:14:21.539><c> different</c><00:14:21.840><c> kings,</c>

00:14:22.159 --> 00:14:25.620
whether<00:14:22.399><c> it's</c><00:14:22.720><c> in</c><00:14:23.080><c> the</c><00:14:23.460><c> Bronze</c><00:14:23.919><c> Age,</c><00:14:24.419><c> Iron</c><00:14:24.679><c> Age,</c><00:14:25.080><c> Middle</c><00:14:25.360><c> Age,</c>

00:14:25.620 --> 00:14:28.240
they<00:14:25.860><c> all</c><00:14:26.179><c> act</c><00:14:26.419><c> the</c><00:14:26.679><c> same</c><00:14:26.919><c> way,</c><00:14:27.899><c> all</c><00:14:28.100><c> right?</c>

00:14:28.320 --> 00:14:30.759
Risk<00:14:28.700><c> eroding</c><00:14:29.200><c> troop</c><00:14:29.519><c> morale</c><00:14:30.000><c> if</c><00:14:30.240><c> discovered.</c>

00:14:30.759 --> 00:14:32.779
Yeah,<00:14:31.379><c> that</c><00:14:31.559><c> would</c><00:14:31.740><c> have</c><00:14:31.879><c> been</c><00:14:31.980><c> bad</c><00:14:32.220><c> for</c><00:14:32.419><c> the</c><00:14:32.600><c> army.</c>

00:14:33.159 --> 00:14:35.580
Hey,<00:14:33.419><c> at</c><00:14:33.559><c> any</c><00:14:33.720><c> given</c><00:14:33.919><c> time,</c><00:14:34.320><c> David</c><00:14:34.559><c> might</c><00:14:34.779><c> put</c><00:14:35.000><c> you</c><00:14:35.179><c> out</c><00:14:35.399><c> front.</c>

00:14:35.659 --> 00:14:36.960
He<00:14:35.759><c> might</c><00:14:35.919><c> get</c><00:14:36.179><c> killed,</c><00:14:36.379><c> I</c><00:14:36.600><c> don't</c><00:14:36.720><c> know.</c>

00:14:37.240 --> 00:14:38.059
That's<00:14:37.679><c> not</c><00:14:37.820><c> good.</c>

00:14:38.360 --> 00:14:39.940
Why<00:14:38.620><c> would</c><00:14:38.820><c> you</c><00:14:39.000><c> want</c><00:14:39.159><c> to</c><00:14:39.279><c> fight</c><00:14:39.419><c> for</c><00:14:39.700><c> David</c>

00:14:39.940 --> 00:14:41.919
if<00:14:40.039><c> he's</c><00:14:40.200><c> going</c><00:14:40.340><c> to</c><00:14:40.440><c> put</c><00:14:40.580><c> you</c><00:14:40.740><c> out</c><00:14:41.000><c> front</c><00:14:41.159><c> to</c><00:14:41.320><c> get</c><00:14:41.519><c> killed</c>

00:14:41.919 --> 00:14:43.200
if<00:14:42.379><c> you</c><00:14:42.580><c> cross</c><00:14:42.899><c> him?</c>

00:14:43.440 --> 00:14:44.360
You<00:14:43.539><c> know,</c><00:14:43.620><c> that's</c><00:14:43.799><c> kind</c><00:14:44.000><c> of</c><00:14:44.059><c> something</c>

00:14:44.360 --> 00:14:46.620
that<00:14:44.840><c> like</c><00:14:45.120><c> Hitler</c><00:14:45.399><c> or</c><00:14:45.840><c> Stalin</c><00:14:46.059><c> did.</c>

00:14:46.779 --> 00:14:49.340
You<00:14:46.960><c> know,</c><00:14:46.960><c> you</c><00:14:47.139><c> get</c><00:14:47.220><c> on</c><00:14:47.399><c> the</c><00:14:47.700><c> bad</c><00:14:48.120><c> side</c><00:14:48.440><c> of</c><00:14:48.720><c> Stalin.</c>

00:14:49.740 --> 00:14:50.899
See<00:14:49.919><c> you</c><00:14:50.120><c> later.</c>

00:14:50.919 --> 00:14:52.799
Happened<00:14:51.220><c> all</c><00:14:51.639><c> the</c><00:14:51.860><c> time.</c>

00:14:53.200 --> 00:14:54.240
All<00:14:53.399><c> right.</c>

00:14:54.940 --> 00:14:57.379
So<00:14:55.379><c> Nathan</c><00:14:55.779><c> comes,</c><00:14:56.220><c> the</c><00:14:56.399><c> prophet</c><00:14:56.700><c> Nathan,</c>

00:14:57.379 --> 00:15:01.259

00:15:01.740 --> 00:15:06.799
And<00:15:02.000><c> he</c><00:15:02.360><c> says,</c><00:15:03.179><c> you</c><00:15:03.399><c> know,</c><00:15:03.679><c> he</c><00:15:03.980><c> puts</c><00:15:04.159><c> forth</c><00:15:04.480><c> kind</c><00:15:04.720><c> of</c><00:15:04.840><c> this</c><00:15:05.120><c> parable.</c>

00:15:17.860 --> 00:15:22.860
The<00:15:18.279><c> rich</c><00:15:18.679><c> man</c><00:15:19.519><c> had</c><00:15:19.879><c> exceeding</c><00:15:20.559><c> many</c><00:15:21.059><c> flocks</c><00:15:21.679><c> and</c><00:15:21.960><c> herds.</c>

00:15:23.200 --> 00:15:25.779
But<00:15:23.480><c> the</c><00:15:23.879><c> poor</c><00:15:24.159><c> man</c><00:15:24.620><c> had</c><00:15:24.860><c> nothing.</c>

00:15:31.659 --> 00:15:35.379
And<00:15:31.960><c> it</c><00:15:32.159><c> grew</c><00:15:32.340><c> up</c><00:15:32.620><c> together</c><00:15:32.980><c> with</c><00:15:33.240><c> him</c><00:15:33.879><c> and</c><00:15:34.480><c> his</c><00:15:34.779><c> children.</c>

00:15:35.840 --> 00:15:38.460
It<00:15:36.059><c> did</c><00:15:36.220><c> eat</c><00:15:36.440><c> of</c><00:15:36.519><c> his</c><00:15:36.759><c> own</c><00:15:37.019><c> meat</c><00:15:37.179><c> and</c><00:15:37.399><c> drank</c><00:15:37.679><c> of</c><00:15:37.779><c> his</c><00:15:38.000><c> own</c><00:15:38.279><c> cup</c>

And<00:15:45.440><c> there</c><00:15:45.639><c> came</c><00:15:45.799><c> a</c><00:15:46.159><c> traveler</c><00:15:46.639><c> unto</c><00:15:47.740><c> the</c><00:15:47.960><c> rich</c><00:15:48.240><c> man.</c>

00:15:50.059 --> 00:15:53.179
And<00:15:50.399><c> he</c><00:15:50.720><c> spared</c><00:15:50.960><c> to</c><00:15:51.240><c> take</c><00:15:51.379><c> his</c><00:15:51.600><c> own</c><00:15:52.000><c> flock</c><00:15:52.240><c> and</c><00:15:52.440><c> his</c><00:15:52.620><c> own</c><00:15:52.879><c> herd</c>

00:16:04.240 --> 00:16:08.740
And<00:16:04.539><c> David's</c><00:16:05.159><c> anger</c><00:16:05.480><c> was</c><00:16:06.000><c> greatly</c><00:16:06.559><c> kindled</c><00:16:07.720><c> against</c><00:16:08.360><c> the</c><00:16:08.600><c> man</c>

00:16:08.740 --> 00:16:10.779

00:16:10.919 --> 00:16:13.220
the<00:16:11.000><c> man</c><00:16:11.179><c> that</c><00:16:11.360><c> has</c><00:16:11.559><c> done</c><00:16:11.740><c> this</c><00:16:12.019><c> thing</c><00:16:12.179><c> shall</c><00:16:12.419><c> surely</c><00:16:12.919><c> die</c>

00:16:16.500 --> 00:16:22.779
because<00:16:17.179><c> he</c><00:16:17.379><c> did</c><00:16:17.580><c> this</c><00:16:17.960><c> thing</c><00:16:18.580><c> and</c><00:16:19.000><c> because</c><00:16:19.799><c> he</c><00:16:20.799><c> had</c><00:16:21.240><c> no</c><00:16:21.899><c> pity.</c>

00:16:24.100 --> 00:16:27.019
David<00:16:24.660><c> condemned</c><00:16:25.220><c> himself,</c><00:16:26.080><c> brothers</c><00:16:26.320><c> and</c><00:16:26.620><c> sisters.</c>

00:16:27.460 --> 00:16:29.500
This<00:16:27.700><c> is</c><00:16:27.940><c> the</c><00:16:28.139><c> David</c><00:16:28.440><c> we</c><00:16:28.679><c> know</c><00:16:28.940><c> and</c><00:16:29.179><c> love.</c>

00:16:29.980 --> 00:16:32.120
Oh,<00:16:30.220><c> here's</c><00:16:30.539><c> the</c><00:16:30.700><c> guy,</c><00:16:30.899><c> he's</c><00:16:31.240><c> back.</c>

00:16:32.240 --> 00:16:34.820
Very<00:16:32.659><c> clear,</c><00:16:33.139><c> we</c><00:16:33.299><c> saw</c><00:16:33.440><c> everything</c><00:16:33.919><c> very</c><00:16:34.360><c> clear.</c>

00:16:35.120 --> 00:16:37.620
That<00:16:35.340><c> man,</c><00:16:35.620><c> what</c><00:16:35.799><c> he</c><00:16:36.059><c> did,</c><00:16:36.419><c> he</c><00:16:36.700><c> deserved</c><00:16:37.120><c> to</c><00:16:37.399><c> die</c>

00:16:37.620 --> 00:16:40.379
because<00:16:37.879><c> he</c><00:16:38.080><c> had</c><00:16:38.340><c> no</c><00:16:38.700><c> pity,</c><00:16:39.200><c> he</c><00:16:39.379><c> had</c><00:16:39.659><c> no</c><00:16:40.000><c> mercy.</c>

00:16:40.620 --> 00:16:44.220
He<00:16:40.860><c> didn't</c><00:16:41.179><c> care</c><00:16:41.580><c> for</c><00:16:41.799><c> this</c><00:16:42.039><c> person,</c><00:16:42.399><c> didn't</c><00:16:42.639><c> care</c><00:16:42.899><c> for</c><00:16:43.100><c> this</c><00:16:43.379><c> lamb.</c>

00:16:45.059 --> 00:16:50.120
It's<00:16:45.379><c> interesting</c><00:16:45.779><c> too,</c><00:16:47.639><c> it</c><00:16:47.899><c> was</c><00:16:48.120><c> a</c><00:16:48.399><c> traveler</c><00:16:48.759><c> that</c><00:16:49.159><c> came.</c>

00:16:50.199 --> 00:16:56.039
Right,<00:16:51.919><c> and</c><00:16:52.080><c> I</c><00:16:52.460><c> think</c><00:16:52.779><c> that's,</c><00:16:53.259><c> it</c><00:16:53.539><c> wasn't</c><00:16:54.299><c> who</c><00:16:54.700><c> David</c><00:16:55.039><c> was</c>

00:17:00.059 --> 00:17:02.519
Right,<00:17:00.240><c> sin</c><00:17:00.340><c> wasn't</c><00:17:00.659><c> always</c><00:17:01.139><c> there</c><00:17:01.419><c> with</c><00:17:01.639><c> David.</c>

00:17:02.559 --> 00:17:05.799
He<00:17:02.659><c> wasn't</c><00:17:03.000><c> a</c><00:17:03.240><c> sinful</c><00:17:03.539><c> man</c><00:17:04.079><c> but</c><00:17:04.740><c> it</c><00:17:05.039><c> came</c><00:17:05.359><c> to</c><00:17:05.539><c> him</c>

And<00:17:09.640><c> he</c><00:17:09.779><c> fell</c><00:17:10.099><c> into</c><00:17:10.519><c> lust</c><00:17:10.980><c> and</c><00:17:11.960><c> murder.</c>

00:17:57.480 --> 00:17:59.960
I<00:17:58.000><c> would</c><00:17:58.220><c> imagine</c><00:17:58.660><c> that</c><00:17:58.960><c> people</c><00:17:59.200><c> heard</c><00:17:59.460><c> it.</c>

00:18:04.759 --> 00:18:07.920
So<00:18:04.980><c> that's</c><00:18:05.339><c> bad,</c><00:18:06.160><c> Joab</c><00:18:06.619><c> already</c><00:18:06.980><c> was</c><00:18:07.240><c> part</c><00:18:07.440><c> and</c><00:18:07.619><c> parcel</c>

00:18:55.960 --> 00:19:00.160
And<00:18:56.180><c> so</c><00:18:56.619><c> this</c><00:18:58.039><c> is</c><00:18:58.299><c> the</c><00:18:58.400><c> beginning</c><00:18:58.660><c> of</c><00:18:58.920><c> this</c><00:18:59.119><c> process.</c>

00:19:00.900 --> 00:19:04.700
And<00:19:01.059><c> so</c><00:19:01.759><c> even</c><00:19:02.519><c> the</c><00:19:02.839><c> king</c><00:19:03.220><c> in</c><00:19:03.599><c> scripture</c><00:19:03.980><c> is</c><00:19:04.240><c> accountable</c>

00:19:18.359 --> 00:19:21.920
The<00:19:18.619><c> highest</c><00:19:19.039><c> of</c><00:19:19.299><c> all</c><00:19:19.619><c> authorities</c><00:19:20.099><c> has</c><00:19:20.480><c> condemned</c><00:19:20.980><c> your</c><00:19:21.440><c> actions</c>

00:19:21.920 --> 00:19:23.619
and<00:19:22.359><c> you're</c><00:19:22.539><c> gonna</c><00:19:22.640><c> be</c><00:19:22.859><c> punished</c><00:19:23.099><c> for</c><00:19:23.380><c> it.</c>

00:19:23.779 --> 00:19:25.660
You're<00:19:23.960><c> not</c><00:19:24.119><c> gonna</c><00:19:24.339><c> die,</c><00:19:24.680><c> but</c><00:19:24.799><c> you</c><00:19:24.960><c> will</c><00:19:25.140><c> be</c><00:19:25.380><c> punished.</c>

00:19:26.140 --> 00:19:27.900
And<00:19:26.279><c> so</c><00:19:26.420><c> that's</c><00:19:27.400><c> what</c><00:19:27.559><c> happens.</c>

00:19:28.299 --> 00:19:30.720
And<00:19:28.599><c> David,</c><00:19:29.039><c> I</c><00:19:29.039><c> would</c><00:19:29.259><c> imagine,</c><00:19:29.839><c> brothers</c><00:19:30.119><c> and</c><00:19:30.400><c> sisters,</c>

00:19:35.339 --> 00:19:37.460
Like<00:19:35.660><c> people</c><00:19:35.859><c> heard</c><00:19:36.099><c> about</c><00:19:36.420><c> this</c><00:19:36.579><c> and</c><00:19:36.759><c> like,</c>

00:19:40.160 --> 00:19:42.220
And<00:19:40.240><c> then,</c><00:19:40.700><c> who's</c><00:19:41.920><c> David?</c>

00:19:42.680 --> 00:19:45.119
Is<00:19:43.240><c> this</c><00:19:43.460><c> the</c><00:19:43.619><c> same</c><00:19:43.859><c> David</c><00:19:44.140><c> that's</c><00:19:44.539><c> killing</c><00:19:44.700><c> people</c>

00:20:02.440 --> 00:20:03.940
Like,<00:20:02.619><c> oh,</c><00:20:02.779><c> this</c><00:20:02.920><c> is</c><00:20:03.119><c> God's</c><00:20:03.519><c> great</c><00:20:03.700><c> king.</c>

00:20:38.960 --> 00:20:40.539
But<00:20:39.200><c> that</c><00:20:39.440><c> was</c><00:20:39.660><c> not</c><00:20:39.839><c> God's</c><00:20:40.319><c> plan.</c>

00:20:41.039 --> 00:20:43.140
And<00:20:41.160><c> so</c><00:20:41.380><c> afterward,</c><00:20:41.819><c> David</c><00:20:42.200><c> worships</c><00:20:42.859><c> God.</c>

00:20:43.259 --> 00:20:46.539
And<00:20:43.380><c> it's</c><00:20:43.700><c> interesting,</c><00:20:44.480><c> his</c><00:20:45.319><c> servants</c><00:20:45.839><c> were</c><00:20:46.160><c> afraid</c>

00:20:46.539 --> 00:20:48.740

00:20:49.399 --> 00:20:52.900
But<00:20:49.879><c> David,</c><00:20:50.359><c> it</c><00:20:50.759><c> says</c><00:20:51.160><c> in</c><00:20:51.500><c> verse</c><00:20:51.740><c> 19,</c>

00:20:52.920 --> 00:20:55.500
and<00:20:53.079><c> when</c><00:20:53.279><c> David</c><00:20:53.700><c> saw</c><00:20:54.059><c> that</c><00:20:54.259><c> his</c><00:20:54.619><c> servants</c><00:20:54.880><c> whispered,</c>

00:20:55.500 --> 00:20:56.559
they<00:20:55.619><c> didn't</c><00:20:55.839><c> wanna</c><00:20:56.039><c> tell</c><00:20:56.279><c> him</c>

00:20:56.559 --> 00:20:58.460
because<00:20:56.859><c> they</c><00:20:57.140><c> saw</c><00:20:57.319><c> how</c><00:20:57.839><c> distraught</c><00:20:58.059><c> he</c><00:20:58.259><c> was</c>

00:20:58.460 --> 00:20:59.700
when<00:20:58.660><c> the</c><00:20:59.000><c> child</c><00:20:59.259><c> was</c><00:20:59.559><c> sick.</c>

00:20:59.740 --> 00:21:01.559
And<00:20:59.839><c> they're</c><00:21:00.000><c> like,</c><00:21:00.140><c> well,</c><00:21:00.700><c> how</c><00:21:00.920><c> is</c><00:21:01.099><c> he</c><00:21:01.220><c> gonna</c><00:21:01.359><c> be</c>

00:21:01.559 --> 00:21:03.460
once<00:21:01.759><c> they</c><00:21:01.960><c> find</c><00:21:02.259><c> out</c><00:21:02.460><c> the</c><00:21:02.579><c> child</c><00:21:02.859><c> has</c><00:21:03.160><c> died?</c>

00:21:03.680 --> 00:21:06.680
No<00:21:03.859><c> name</c><00:21:04.160><c> to</c><00:21:04.339><c> this</c><00:21:04.519><c> child,</c><00:21:04.980><c> by</c><00:21:04.980><c> the</c><00:21:05.140><c> way,</c><00:21:05.279><c> brothers</c><00:21:05.559><c> and</c><00:21:05.759><c> sisters.</c>

00:21:09.160 --> 00:21:10.859
Yeah,<00:21:09.400><c> the</c><00:21:09.559><c> servants</c><00:21:09.980><c> of</c><00:21:10.160><c> David</c><00:21:10.539><c> feared</c>

00:21:10.859 --> 00:21:13.079
to<00:21:11.140><c> tell</c><00:21:11.339><c> him</c><00:21:11.559><c> that</c><00:21:11.779><c> the</c><00:21:12.019><c> child</c><00:21:12.339><c> was</c><00:21:12.720><c> dead.</c>

00:21:13.359 --> 00:21:15.460
David<00:21:13.680><c> perceived</c><00:21:14.160><c> therefore</c><00:21:14.480><c> the</c><00:21:14.599><c> child</c><00:21:14.900><c> was</c><00:21:15.160><c> dead.</c>

00:21:15.759 --> 00:21:17.099
He<00:21:15.980><c> asked,</c><00:21:16.400><c> is</c><00:21:16.440><c> the</c><00:21:16.619><c> child</c><00:21:16.900><c> dead?</c>

00:21:17.099 --> 00:21:18.240
And<00:21:17.259><c> they</c><00:21:17.299><c> said,</c><00:21:17.539><c> he</c><00:21:17.720><c> is</c><00:21:18.019><c> dead.</c>

00:21:18.700 --> 00:21:21.039
Then<00:21:18.940><c> David</c><00:21:19.400><c> arose</c><00:21:20.140><c> from</c><00:21:20.599><c> the</c><00:21:20.819><c> earth</c>

00:21:21.039 --> 00:21:22.980
and<00:21:21.319><c> washed</c><00:21:21.660><c> and</c><00:21:21.940><c> anointed</c><00:21:22.440><c> himself</c>

00:21:22.980 --> 00:21:24.259
and<00:21:23.220><c> changed</c><00:21:23.619><c> his</c><00:21:23.880><c> apparel</c>

00:21:24.259 --> 00:21:27.039
and<00:21:24.359><c> came</c><00:21:24.640><c> into</c><00:21:24.900><c> the</c><00:21:25.000><c> house</c><00:21:25.240><c> of</c><00:21:25.420><c> God</c><00:21:25.660><c> and</c><00:21:25.900><c> worshiped.</c>

00:21:27.099 --> 00:21:28.740
Then<00:21:27.339><c> he</c><00:21:27.519><c> came</c><00:21:27.819><c> to</c><00:21:28.000><c> his</c><00:21:28.160><c> own</c><00:21:28.400><c> house</c>

00:21:28.740 --> 00:21:32.940
and<00:21:28.920><c> when</c><00:21:29.119><c> he</c><00:21:30.119><c> required,</c><00:21:30.859><c> they</c><00:21:30.980><c> set</c><00:21:31.180><c> bread</c><00:21:31.460><c> before</c><00:21:31.940><c> him</c>

00:21:32.980 --> 00:21:33.859
and<00:21:33.220><c> he</c><00:21:33.420><c> did</c><00:21:33.660><c> eat.</c>

00:21:33.859 --> 00:21:35.839
So<00:21:34.059><c> it</c><00:21:34.079><c> was</c><00:21:34.279><c> very</c><00:21:34.740><c> strange</c><00:21:35.019><c> to</c><00:21:35.339><c> the</c><00:21:35.400><c> servants,</c>

00:21:36.039 --> 00:21:38.920
it's<00:21:36.160><c> like,</c><00:21:37.180><c> now</c><00:21:37.180><c> that</c><00:21:37.519><c> the</c><00:21:38.039><c> child</c><00:21:38.420><c> is</c><00:21:38.700><c> dead,</c>

00:21:38.940 --> 00:21:41.640
that<00:21:39.140><c> has</c><00:21:39.460><c> passed,</c><00:21:39.980><c> now</c><00:21:40.240><c> you're</c><00:21:40.579><c> acting</c><00:21:40.940><c> normal.</c>

00:21:41.740 --> 00:21:44.460
And<00:21:41.920><c> David</c><00:21:42.079><c> says,</c><00:21:43.420><c> he's</c><00:21:43.660><c> not</c><00:21:43.799><c> gonna</c><00:21:43.920><c> come</c><00:21:44.160><c> to</c><00:21:44.339><c> me,</c>

00:21:44.460 --> 00:21:45.220
I'm<00:21:44.599><c> gonna</c><00:21:44.740><c> go</c><00:21:44.960><c> to</c><00:21:45.099><c> him.</c>

00:21:45.259 --> 00:21:48.019
What's<00:21:45.579><c> done</c><00:21:45.680><c> is</c><00:21:45.920><c> done,</c><00:21:46.460><c> unfortunately,</c><00:21:47.140><c> as</c><00:21:47.319><c> sad</c><00:21:47.500><c> as</c><00:21:47.680><c> it</c><00:21:47.839><c> is.</c>

00:21:48.039 --> 00:21:50.279
He<00:21:48.299><c> accepted</c><00:21:48.619><c> it</c><00:21:48.859><c> and</c><00:21:48.900><c> he</c><00:21:49.119><c> moved</c><00:21:49.299><c> on.</c>

00:21:52.140 --> 00:21:54.900
So<00:21:52.579><c> the</c><00:21:52.839><c> sword</c><00:21:53.160><c> will</c><00:21:53.420><c> never</c><00:21:53.640><c> depart</c><00:21:54.039><c> from</c><00:21:54.259><c> your</c><00:21:54.500><c> house.</c>

00:21:54.900 --> 00:21:57.160
And<00:21:55.220><c> so</c><00:21:55.680><c> David's</c><00:21:56.299><c> personal</c><00:21:56.779><c> sin</c>

00:21:57.160 --> 00:22:02.720

So<00:23:00.799><c> that's</c><00:23:01.259><c> another</c><00:23:01.440><c> thing</c><00:23:01.660><c> that's</c><00:23:01.920><c> going</c><00:23:02.099><c> to</c><00:23:02.299><c> happen.</c>

00:23:03.019 --> 00:23:07.539
All<00:23:03.220><c> right,</c><00:23:04.779><c> God</c><00:23:05.160><c> redeems</c><00:23:05.980><c> the</c><00:23:06.279><c> situation.</c>

00:23:07.920 --> 00:23:11.880
He<00:23:08.180><c> makes</c><00:23:08.440><c> something</c><00:23:09.039><c> good</c><00:23:09.819><c> out</c><00:23:10.140><c> of</c><00:23:10.339><c> something</c><00:23:10.740><c> evil</c>

00:23:11.950 --> 00:23:14.819
and<00:23:12.279><c> that's</c><00:23:13.099><c> true</c><00:23:13.279><c> in</c><00:23:13.460><c> our</c><00:23:13.660><c> lives,</c><00:23:14.079><c> brothers</c><00:23:14.220><c> and</c><00:23:14.480><c> sisters.</c>

00:23:15.319 --> 00:23:20.279
He's<00:23:15.900><c> always</c><00:23:16.299><c> making</c><00:23:16.859><c> good</c><00:23:17.579><c> stuff</c><00:23:17.960><c> happen</c><00:23:18.319><c> despite</c><00:23:18.799><c> our</c><00:23:19.160><c> bad</c><00:23:19.460><c> stuff.</c>

00:23:20.339 --> 00:23:22.579
The<00:23:20.619><c> graces</c><00:23:21.339><c> that</c><00:23:21.579><c> he</c><00:23:21.759><c> has</c><00:23:22.039><c> given</c><00:23:22.240><c> us</c>

00:23:22.579 --> 00:23:24.859
are<00:23:22.839><c> beyond</c><00:23:23.200><c> compare,</c><00:23:23.619><c> the</c><00:23:23.839><c> blessings.</c>

00:23:25.259 --> 00:23:27.039
You<00:23:25.359><c> know,</c><00:23:25.480><c> we're</c><00:23:25.759><c> a</c><00:23:25.839><c> lot</c><00:23:25.980><c> like</c><00:23:26.259><c> David</c><00:23:26.599><c> in</c><00:23:26.819><c> a</c><00:23:26.940><c> way</c>

00:23:27.039 --> 00:23:28.259
when<00:23:27.220><c> we</c><00:23:27.500><c> commit</c><00:23:27.819><c> sin.</c>

00:23:28.700 --> 00:23:31.299
God<00:23:29.079><c> forgives</c><00:23:29.579><c> us</c><00:23:29.799><c> and</c><00:23:29.960><c> sometimes</c>

00:23:31.940 --> 00:23:34.920
he<00:23:32.500><c> doesn't</c><00:23:32.819><c> even</c><00:23:33.160><c> really</c><00:23:33.539><c> punish</c><00:23:33.880><c> us</c><00:23:34.240><c> for</c><00:23:34.500><c> it.</c>

00:23:35.039 --> 00:23:37.000
He<00:23:35.240><c> just</c><00:23:35.519><c> forgives</c><00:23:35.940><c> us.</c>

00:23:37.539 --> 00:23:41.119
Just<00:23:37.819><c> forgives</c><00:23:38.160><c> us</c><00:23:38.859><c> because</c><00:23:39.900><c> of</c><00:23:40.079><c> his</c><00:23:40.299><c> love</c><00:23:40.460><c> and</c><00:23:40.660><c> his</c><00:23:40.859><c> mercy</c>

00:23:41.119 --> 00:23:42.200
for<00:23:41.339><c> us.</c>

00:23:42.240 --> 00:23:44.519
But<00:23:42.400><c> this</c><00:23:42.619><c> was</c><00:23:42.819><c> so</c><00:23:43.220><c> egregious,</c><00:23:43.880><c> brothers</c><00:23:44.019><c> and</c><00:23:44.279><c> sisters,</c>

00:23:44.559 --> 00:23:47.019
that<00:23:44.859><c> David,</c><00:23:45.759><c> it</c><00:23:46.140><c> had</c><00:23:46.400><c> to</c><00:23:46.559><c> be</c><00:23:46.779><c> punished.</c>

00:23:47.079 --> 00:23:49.539
It<00:23:47.180><c> had</c><00:23:47.420><c> to</c><00:23:47.559><c> be</c><00:23:47.740><c> a</c><00:23:47.960><c> consequence</c><00:23:48.359><c> for</c><00:23:48.640><c> it.</c>

00:23:50.459 --> 00:23:54.460
So<00:23:51.099><c> human</c><00:23:51.740><c> failure,</c><00:23:53.160><c> divine</c><00:23:53.420><c> grace.</c>

00:23:55.140 --> 00:23:56.960
And<00:23:55.440><c> that's</c><00:23:55.740><c> been</c><00:23:55.920><c> the</c><00:23:56.200><c> struggle.</c>

00:23:57.299 --> 00:24:00.819
That<00:23:57.660><c> has</c><00:23:57.960><c> been</c><00:23:58.180><c> the</c><00:23:58.420><c> struggle</c><00:23:58.640><c> since</c><00:23:58.940><c> the</c><00:23:59.119><c> Garden</c><00:23:59.319><c> of</c><00:23:59.519><c> Eden.</c>

00:24:01.579 --> 00:24:04.559
All<00:24:01.680><c> right,</c><00:24:02.279><c> family</c><00:24:02.460><c> dysfunction,</c><00:24:04.039><c> Amnon,</c>

00:24:04.900 --> 00:24:08.700
not<00:24:05.059><c> the</c><00:24:05.319><c> best</c><00:24:05.619><c> guy,</c><00:24:06.559><c> okay,</c><00:24:06.700><c> eldest</c><00:24:07.059><c> son</c><00:24:07.359><c> of</c><00:24:07.660><c> David,</c>

00:24:09.079 --> 00:24:14.920
rapes<00:24:09.460><c> Tamar,</c><00:24:11.039><c> his</c><00:24:11.259><c> half</c><00:24:11.619><c>-sister,</c><00:24:12.400><c> Absalom's</c><00:24:13.240><c> sister,</c><00:24:13.859><c> okay.</c>

00:24:15.059 --> 00:24:17.259
This<00:24:15.299><c> is</c><00:24:15.500><c> an</c><00:24:15.700><c> awful</c><00:24:15.940><c> situation.</c>

00:24:17.659 --> 00:24:20.619
The<00:24:18.299><c> Bible</c><00:24:18.660><c> gives</c><00:24:18.980><c> an</c><00:24:19.240><c> account</c><00:24:19.619><c> of</c><00:24:19.799><c> it.</c>

00:24:21.599 --> 00:24:24.099
David<00:24:21.880><c> is</c><00:24:22.299><c> angry,</c><00:24:23.440><c> very</c><00:24:23.799><c> angry,</c>

00:24:24.140 --> 00:24:26.559
but<00:24:24.279><c> doesn't</c><00:24:24.579><c> do</c><00:24:24.839><c> anything</c><00:24:25.140><c> about</c><00:24:25.460><c> it.</c>

00:24:27.039 --> 00:24:29.759
Absalom<00:24:27.680><c> is</c><00:24:28.039><c> furious</c><00:24:28.660><c> about</c><00:24:29.019><c> it.</c>

00:24:30.259 --> 00:24:32.259
But<00:24:30.380><c> there's</c><00:24:30.599><c> a</c><00:24:30.779><c> great</c><00:24:30.980><c> line</c><00:24:31.240><c> in</c><00:24:31.480><c> scripture</c><00:24:31.799><c> that</c><00:24:32.079><c> says</c>

00:24:32.259 --> 00:24:36.019
he<00:24:32.519><c> spoke</c><00:24:32.839><c> neither</c><00:24:33.099><c> good</c><00:24:33.380><c> nor</c><00:24:33.700><c> evil</c><00:24:34.140><c> about</c><00:24:35.480><c> Amnon.</c>

00:24:36.500 --> 00:24:40.160
Didn't<00:24:36.759><c> say</c><00:24:37.000><c> anything</c><00:24:37.339><c> good,</c><00:24:38.259><c> didn't</c><00:24:38.539><c> say</c><00:24:38.819><c> anything</c><00:24:39.200><c> evil.</c>

00:24:40.440 --> 00:24:42.980
All<00:24:40.839><c> along,</c><00:24:42.140><c> he</c><00:24:42.299><c> was</c><00:24:42.619><c> planning.</c>

00:24:43.160 --> 00:24:45.119
So<00:24:43.420><c> I</c><00:24:43.480><c> think</c><00:24:43.660><c> a</c><00:24:43.799><c> couple</c><00:24:44.000><c> years</c><00:24:44.380><c> go</c><00:24:44.700><c> by,</c>

00:24:45.119 --> 00:24:48.380
they<00:24:45.619><c> have</c><00:24:45.819><c> a</c><00:24:46.039><c> big</c><00:24:46.339><c> feast,</c><00:24:46.900><c> it</c><00:24:46.980><c> was</c><00:24:47.220><c> the</c><00:24:47.480><c> time</c><00:24:47.720><c> of</c><00:24:48.000><c> harvest</c>

00:24:48.380 --> 00:24:54.859
and<00:24:48.559><c> of</c><00:24:48.819><c> sharing,</c><00:24:50.940><c> sharing,</c><00:24:52.299><c> yeah,</c><00:24:52.680><c> sharing</c><00:24:52.900><c> the</c><00:24:53.140><c> sheep,</c><00:24:53.460><c> yeah.</c>

00:24:55.440 --> 00:24:58.539
And<00:24:55.960><c> Absalom</c><00:24:56.240><c> is</c><00:24:56.420><c> gonna</c><00:24:56.599><c> use</c><00:24:56.920><c> this</c><00:24:57.220><c> to</c><00:24:57.619><c> kill</c><00:24:58.059><c> Amnon.</c>

00:24:59.039 --> 00:25:01.359
He's<00:24:59.160><c> gonna</c><00:24:59.299><c> have</c><00:24:59.480><c> him</c><00:24:59.720><c> and</c><00:24:59.839><c> his</c><00:25:00.019><c> servants</c><00:25:00.279><c> are</c><00:25:00.420><c> gonna</c><00:25:00.619><c> kill</c><00:25:00.900><c> Amnon</c>

00:25:01.359 --> 00:25:03.920
because<00:25:01.759><c> of</c><00:25:01.900><c> what</c><00:25:02.059><c> he</c><00:25:02.220><c> had</c><00:25:02.359><c> done</c><00:25:02.500><c> to</c><00:25:02.779><c> Tamar,</c><00:25:03.460><c> his</c><00:25:03.660><c> sister.</c>

00:25:03.980 --> 00:25:08.799
At<00:25:04.359><c> first,</c><00:25:05.599><c> David</c><00:25:06.160><c> and</c><00:25:06.640><c> his</c><00:25:06.880><c> entourage</c><00:25:07.619><c> and</c><00:25:08.099><c> his</c><00:25:08.339><c> government</c>

00:25:08.799 --> 00:25:11.299
thought<00:25:09.319><c> that</c><00:25:09.680><c> all</c><00:25:10.000><c> of</c><00:25:10.180><c> the</c><00:25:10.420><c> sons</c><00:25:10.779><c> were</c><00:25:11.079><c> killed,</c>

00:25:11.319 --> 00:25:13.900
that<00:25:11.640><c> Absalom</c><00:25:12.079><c> had</c><00:25:12.359><c> killed</c><00:25:12.500><c> all</c><00:25:12.799><c> of</c><00:25:12.960><c> the</c><00:25:13.099><c> sons.</c>

00:25:14.039 --> 00:25:15.839
Wasn't<00:25:14.599><c> though,</c><00:25:14.839><c> they</c><00:25:15.079><c> came,</c><00:25:15.359><c> they</c><00:25:15.640><c> fled,</c>

00:25:15.880 --> 00:25:17.700
they<00:25:16.079><c> actually</c><00:25:16.339><c> got</c><00:25:16.460><c> out</c><00:25:16.680><c> of</c><00:25:16.740><c> there</c><00:25:16.900><c> pretty</c><00:25:17.279><c> quick</c>

00:25:17.700 --> 00:25:20.140
and<00:25:18.660><c> it</c><00:25:18.799><c> was</c><00:25:18.980><c> just</c><00:25:19.240><c> Amnon.</c>

00:25:20.620 --> 00:25:22.920
So<00:25:21.180><c> Absalom</c><00:25:21.579><c> flees</c><00:25:21.940><c> too,</c><00:25:22.140><c> he</c><00:25:22.279><c> goes</c><00:25:22.559><c> back</c>

00:25:22.920 --> 00:25:26.740
to<00:25:23.200><c> his</c><00:25:23.559><c> mother's</c><00:25:24.799><c> country,</c><00:25:25.980><c> Giza.</c>

00:25:26.799 --> 00:25:30.079
So<00:25:27.119><c> Absalom</c><00:25:27.660><c> was</c><00:25:27.920><c> half</c><00:25:28.220><c>-gentile,</c><00:25:29.380><c> not</c><00:25:29.480><c> that</c><00:25:29.619><c> it</c><00:25:29.799><c> matters,</c>

00:25:30.140 --> 00:25:34.059
but<00:25:30.359><c> it</c><00:25:30.559><c> just</c><00:25:30.880><c> shows</c><00:25:31.119><c> you</c><00:25:31.299><c> that</c><00:25:31.599><c> David</c><00:25:32.019><c> is</c><00:25:32.799><c> expanding</c><00:25:33.539><c> out</c>

00:25:34.059 --> 00:25:37.200
and<00:25:34.299><c> actually</c><00:25:34.680><c> making</c><00:25:35.460><c> political</c><00:25:36.400><c> marriages</c>

00:25:37.200 --> 00:25:39.859
with<00:25:37.700><c> some</c><00:25:37.940><c> of</c><00:25:38.079><c> the</c><00:25:38.319><c> smaller</c><00:25:38.599><c> countries</c><00:25:39.119><c> around</c><00:25:39.539><c> there.</c>

00:25:39.940 --> 00:25:40.700
And<00:25:40.140><c> that's</c><00:25:40.279><c> what</c><00:25:40.380><c> he</c><00:25:40.559><c> did.</c>

00:25:40.700 --> 00:25:45.799
Giza<00:25:41.039><c> was</c><00:25:41.319><c> actually</c><00:25:41.720><c> up</c><00:25:41.920><c> in</c><00:25:42.960><c> the</c><00:25:43.220><c> northeast,</c><00:25:44.319><c> north</c><00:25:44.599><c> of</c><00:25:44.819><c> Jerusalem.</c>

00:25:47.319 --> 00:25:48.579
And<00:25:47.579><c> he's</c><00:25:47.779><c> gonna</c><00:25:47.940><c> hang</c><00:25:48.180><c> out</c><00:25:48.440><c> there.</c>

00:25:48.619 --> 00:25:55.099
So<00:25:48.900><c> just</c><00:25:49.200><c> think</c><00:25:49.359><c> about</c><00:25:49.599><c> this,</c><00:25:50.700><c> Absalom's</c><00:25:52.839><c> grandfather</c><00:25:53.539><c> was</c><00:25:53.940><c> a</c><00:25:54.160><c> king,</c>

00:25:55.480 --> 00:25:58.339
so<00:25:56.039><c> he</c><00:25:56.240><c> has</c><00:25:56.440><c> a</c><00:25:56.660><c> kingly</c><00:25:57.019><c> line</c><00:25:57.200><c> on</c><00:25:57.380><c> his</c><00:25:57.599><c> mother's</c><00:25:58.140><c> side,</c>

00:25:58.619 --> 00:26:02.599
he's<00:25:58.900><c> got</c><00:25:59.039><c> a</c><00:25:59.279><c> kingly</c><00:25:59.880><c> line</c><00:26:00.299><c> on</c><00:26:00.539><c> his</c><00:26:00.779><c> father's</c><00:26:01.259><c> side</c><00:26:01.400><c> through</c><00:26:01.660><c> David.</c>

00:26:02.720 --> 00:26:07.039
So<00:26:03.140><c> in</c><00:26:03.980><c> Absalom's</c><00:26:04.799><c> mind,</c><00:26:05.480><c> I</c><00:26:05.680><c> got</c><00:26:05.859><c> the</c><00:26:06.099><c> royal</c><00:26:06.359><c> blood,</c><00:26:06.960><c> baby,</c>

00:26:13.000 --> 00:26:17.019
Right,<00:26:13.600><c> he</c><00:26:14.200><c> looked</c><00:26:14.460><c> like</c><00:26:14.759><c> a</c><00:26:14.960><c> king,</c><00:26:15.799><c> he</c><00:26:16.019><c> acted</c><00:26:16.359><c> like</c><00:26:16.660><c> a</c><00:26:16.839><c> king,</c>

00:26:22.500 --> 00:26:25.500
It<00:26:22.500><c> says,</c><00:26:23.400><c> scripture</c><00:26:23.660><c> says</c><00:26:23.920><c> that</c><00:26:24.140><c> he</c><00:26:24.559><c> stole</c><00:26:25.059><c> away</c>

00:26:25.500 --> 00:26:27.799
the<00:26:25.799><c> hearts</c><00:26:26.059><c> of</c><00:26:26.220><c> Israel</c><00:26:26.660><c> from</c><00:26:26.880><c> David.</c>

00:26:28.099 --> 00:26:31.420
Right,<00:26:28.319><c> they</c><00:26:28.500><c> loved</c><00:26:28.819><c> him,</c><00:26:29.160><c> Absalom,</c><00:26:29.859><c> he</c><00:26:30.140><c> was</c><00:26:30.359><c> the</c><00:26:30.519><c> guy.</c>

00:26:31.740 --> 00:26:36.259

00:26:46.699 --> 00:26:49.740
Amnon<00:26:47.339><c> committed</c><00:26:47.980><c> sexual</c><00:26:48.559><c> immorality</c><00:26:49.240><c> as</c><00:26:49.539><c> well,</c>

00:26:49.819 --> 00:26:50.799
the<00:26:49.940><c> rape</c><00:26:50.119><c> of</c><00:26:50.400><c> his</c><00:26:50.500><c> sister.</c>

00:26:51.200 --> 00:26:53.779
David<00:26:51.519><c> did</c><00:26:51.779><c> nothing</c><00:26:52.119><c> about</c><00:26:52.519><c> it.</c>

00:26:54.700 --> 00:26:58.160
You<00:26:55.019><c> wonder</c><00:26:55.339><c> why,</c><00:26:56.200><c> did</c><00:26:56.319><c> he</c><00:26:56.539><c> feel</c><00:26:56.779><c> as</c><00:26:56.940><c> if</c><00:26:57.079><c> he</c><00:26:57.339><c> had</c><00:26:57.500><c> no</c><00:26:57.759><c> power</c>

00:26:58.160 --> 00:27:02.519
or<00:26:58.400><c> control</c><00:26:58.839><c> over</c><00:26:59.099><c> it,</c><00:26:59.240><c> he</c><00:26:59.859><c> was</c><00:27:00.160><c> angry</c><00:27:00.539><c> about</c><00:27:00.880><c> it,</c><00:27:01.079><c> it</c><00:27:01.099><c> upset</c><00:27:01.440><c> him,</c>

00:27:02.720 --> 00:27:05.660
but<00:27:02.900><c> there</c><00:27:03.079><c> was</c><00:27:03.259><c> no</c><00:27:03.579><c> follow</c><00:27:03.920><c> through</c><00:27:04.160><c> with</c><00:27:04.480><c> consequences.</c>

00:27:06.259 --> 00:27:10.720
And<00:27:06.359><c> that's</c><00:27:06.779><c> a</c><00:27:08.319><c> big</c><00:27:08.619><c> thing,</c><00:27:08.900><c> certainly</c><00:27:09.220><c> in</c><00:27:09.480><c> education</c><00:27:10.000><c> and</c><00:27:10.299><c> schools,</c>

00:27:10.900 --> 00:27:14.900
kids<00:27:11.380><c> mess</c><00:27:11.759><c> up,</c><00:27:13.019><c> I</c><00:27:13.559><c> tell</c><00:27:13.759><c> them,</c><00:27:14.380><c> look,</c>

00:27:15.119 --> 00:27:16.779
I<00:27:15.259><c> want</c><00:27:15.519><c> the</c><00:27:15.700><c> behavior</c><00:27:16.059><c> to</c><00:27:16.380><c> change.</c>

00:27:17.079 --> 00:27:19.279
Is<00:27:17.200><c> the</c><00:27:17.480><c> behavior</c><00:27:17.700><c> gonna</c><00:27:17.940><c> change</c><00:27:18.339><c> by</c><00:27:18.599><c> us</c><00:27:18.799><c> just</c><00:27:19.059><c> having</c>

00:27:19.279 --> 00:27:23.180
a<00:27:19.539><c> conversation,</c><00:27:21.319><c> or</c><00:27:21.599><c> is</c><00:27:21.799><c> the</c><00:27:22.079><c> behavior</c><00:27:22.359><c> not</c><00:27:22.640><c> gonna</c><00:27:22.859><c> change</c>

00:27:23.180 --> 00:27:25.740
until<00:27:23.519><c> we</c><00:27:23.880><c> escalate</c><00:27:24.359><c> it</c><00:27:24.460><c> to</c><00:27:24.599><c> something</c><00:27:24.900><c> else?</c>

00:27:25.920 --> 00:27:29.160
Usually<00:27:26.519><c> it's</c><00:27:26.799><c> just</c><00:27:27.079><c> a</c><00:27:27.319><c> conversation</c><00:27:27.819><c> that</c><00:27:28.119><c> will</c><00:27:28.299><c> change</c><00:27:28.619><c> it.</c>

00:27:29.279 --> 00:27:30.359
Wrong!

00:27:32.860 --> 00:27:35.420
So,<00:27:33.460><c> kids</c><00:27:34.059><c> sometimes</c><00:27:34.640><c> need</c><00:27:34.880><c> consequences,</c>

00:27:35.420 --> 00:27:36.900
they<00:27:35.660><c> need</c><00:27:35.880><c> reminders.</c>

00:27:37.039 --> 00:27:38.559
All<00:27:37.180><c> right.</c>

00:27:39.700 --> 00:27:42.259
So,<00:27:40.539><c> here's</c><00:27:40.920><c> Absalom</c><00:27:41.339><c> with</c><00:27:41.579><c> his</c><00:27:41.859><c> chariot,</c>

00:27:52.480 --> 00:27:57.320
Yeah,<00:27:52.759><c> let's</c><00:27:53.000><c> take</c><00:27:53.220><c> a</c><00:27:53.319><c> look</c><00:27:53.460><c> at</c><00:27:53.619><c> this</c><00:27:53.920><c> in</c><00:27:54.680><c> 2</c><00:27:55.000><c> Samuel</c><00:27:55.680><c> 15.</c>

00:28:02.420 --> 00:28:04.400
Yeah,<00:28:02.960><c> and</c><00:28:03.119><c> it</c><00:28:03.200><c> came</c><00:28:03.400><c> to</c><00:28:03.619><c> pass</c><00:28:03.859><c> after</c><00:28:04.220><c> this</c>

00:33:17.220 --> 00:33:20.200
because<00:33:17.500><c> most</c><00:33:17.859><c> likely</c><00:33:18.180><c> if</c><00:33:18.420><c> Ahithophel</c><00:33:19.220><c> went</c><00:33:19.579><c> after</c><00:33:20.000><c> him</c>

00:33:38.339 --> 00:33:40.880
and<00:33:38.720><c> says,</c><00:33:39.160><c> no,</c><00:33:39.180><c> no,</c><00:33:39.319><c> no,</c><00:33:39.500><c> they're</c><00:33:39.920><c> waiting</c><00:33:40.220><c> for</c><00:33:40.480><c> you</c><00:33:40.660><c> guys.</c>

00:33:40.960 --> 00:33:42.099
They're<00:33:41.119><c> gonna</c><00:33:41.200><c> kill</c><00:33:41.559><c> you</c><00:33:41.819><c> guys.</c>

00:33:42.119 --> 00:33:43.779
They<00:33:42.359><c> want</c><00:33:42.599><c> you</c><00:33:42.819><c> to</c><00:33:43.019><c> come.</c>

00:33:44.339 --> 00:33:49.559
And<00:33:44.599><c> so</c><00:33:44.720><c> that</c><00:33:44.960><c> gives</c><00:33:45.279><c> time</c><00:33:45.900><c> for</c><00:33:47.640><c> David</c><00:33:48.640><c> and</c><00:33:49.059><c> his</c><00:33:49.339><c> people</c>

00:33:49.559 --> 00:33:50.920
to<00:33:49.720><c> kinda</c><00:33:49.880><c> flee</c><00:33:50.160><c> into</c><00:33:50.380><c> the</c><00:33:50.579><c> wilderness.</c>

00:33:51.359 --> 00:33:55.779
And<00:33:51.819><c> his</c><00:33:52.259><c> supporters</c><00:33:52.980><c> like</c><00:33:53.519><c> Barzilai</c><00:33:54.220><c> who</c><00:33:54.380><c> was</c><00:33:54.599><c> in</c><00:33:54.720><c> his</c><00:33:54.940><c> 80s,</c>

00:33:55.799 --> 00:33:57.720
he<00:33:56.200><c> brings</c><00:33:56.480><c> stuff</c><00:33:56.819><c> for</c><00:33:57.119><c> him</c><00:33:57.220><c> as</c><00:33:57.519><c> well.</c>

00:33:58.099 --> 00:34:00.839
So<00:33:58.619><c> this</c><00:33:59.140><c> is</c><00:33:59.339><c> the</c><00:33:59.539><c> lowest</c><00:33:59.779><c> point</c><00:34:00.099><c> in</c><00:34:00.319><c> David's</c><00:34:00.740><c> life.</c>

00:34:00.980 --> 00:34:03.099
His<00:34:01.180><c> own</c><00:34:01.559><c> son</c><00:34:01.799><c> is</c><00:34:02.079><c> after</c><00:34:02.339><c> him.</c>

00:34:03.220 --> 00:34:05.319
Shimei<00:34:03.720><c> is</c><00:34:03.960><c> throwing</c><00:34:04.299><c> rocks</c><00:34:04.779><c> at</c><00:34:05.160><c> him.</c>

00:34:05.319 --> 00:34:06.559
You're<00:34:05.640><c> a</c><00:34:05.759><c> bloody</c><00:34:05.980><c> man.</c>

00:34:06.559 --> 00:34:10.139
It's<00:34:07.180><c> just</c><00:34:07.319><c> like</c><00:34:07.480><c> it</c><00:34:07.640><c> couldn't</c><00:34:07.759><c> get</c><00:34:08.019><c> any</c><00:34:08.300><c> worse</c><00:34:08.739><c> for</c><00:34:09.300><c> David.</c>

00:34:11.960 --> 00:34:13.300
And<00:34:12.360><c> so</c><00:34:12.539><c> this</c><00:34:12.760><c> is</c><00:34:13.000><c> interesting.</c>

00:34:13.500 --> 00:34:15.000
It<00:34:13.719><c> shows</c><00:34:14.000><c> also,</c><00:34:14.679><c> right?</c>

00:34:15.019 --> 00:34:19.260
It<00:34:15.199><c> shows</c><00:34:15.539><c> how</c><00:34:16.300><c> quickly</c><00:34:16.780><c> public</c><00:34:17.280><c> support</c><00:34:17.780><c> can</c><00:34:18.219><c> shift</c>

00:34:19.379 --> 00:34:21.719
when<00:34:19.659><c> leadership</c><00:34:20.280><c> credibility</c><00:34:21.039><c> is</c><00:34:21.440><c> lost.</c>

00:34:22.159 --> 00:34:25.980
When<00:34:22.380><c> you</c><00:34:22.639><c> lose</c><00:34:22.880><c> all</c><00:34:23.159><c> kinds</c><00:34:23.380><c> of</c><00:34:23.619><c> credibility,</c><00:34:25.019><c> it's</c><00:34:25.199><c> over.</c>

00:34:27.059 --> 00:34:31.860
And<00:34:27.219><c> then</c><00:34:27.599><c> there's</c><00:34:29.099><c> this</c><00:34:29.780><c> kinda</c><00:34:30.400><c> juxtaposition.</c>

00:34:32.679 --> 00:34:36.239
Here<00:34:33.179><c> was</c><00:34:33.400><c> David</c><00:34:33.719><c> on</c><00:34:33.900><c> top</c><00:34:34.079><c> of</c><00:34:34.239><c> the</c><00:34:34.340><c> world</c><00:34:34.500><c> on</c><00:34:34.760><c> top</c><00:34:35.000><c> of</c><00:34:35.119><c> his</c><00:34:35.340><c> roof.</c>

00:34:36.559 --> 00:34:40.840
Looking<00:34:36.980><c> down</c><00:34:37.300><c> at</c><00:34:37.480><c> the</c><00:34:37.659><c> city</c><00:34:37.920><c> that</c><00:34:38.119><c> he</c><00:34:38.340><c> built</c><00:34:38.659><c> full</c><00:34:39.460><c> of</c><00:34:39.679><c> pride.</c>

00:34:40.940 --> 00:34:42.920
He<00:34:41.079><c> looks</c><00:34:41.320><c> down</c><00:34:41.659><c> and</c><00:34:41.800><c> he</c><00:34:41.920><c> sees</c><00:34:42.079><c> Bathsheba</c>

00:34:42.920 --> 00:34:45.739
and<00:34:43.400><c> through</c><00:34:43.639><c> his</c><00:34:43.920><c> pride</c><00:34:44.179><c> and</c><00:34:44.400><c> his</c><00:34:44.579><c> lust,</c><00:34:44.860><c> he</c><00:34:45.099><c> scoops</c><00:34:45.380><c> her</c><00:34:45.599><c> up.</c>

00:34:45.880 --> 00:34:47.539
This<00:34:45.940><c> is</c><00:34:46.239><c> mine</c><00:34:46.519><c> now.</c>

00:34:48.300 --> 00:34:51.300
Now,<00:34:48.699><c> a</c><00:34:48.940><c> few</c><00:34:49.119><c> years</c><00:34:49.480><c> later,</c><00:34:49.920><c> what</c><00:34:50.019><c> do</c><00:34:50.139><c> we</c><00:34:50.380><c> have?</c>

00:34:51.719 --> 00:34:52.800
David's<00:34:52.179><c> head</c><00:34:52.340><c> is</c><00:34:52.599><c> covered.</c>

00:34:53.019 --> 00:34:53.760
He's<00:34:53.159><c> barefoot.</c>

00:34:54.059 --> 00:34:54.719
He's<00:34:54.440><c> weeping.</c>

00:34:54.820 --> 00:34:59.179
Everything<00:34:55.199><c> that</c><00:34:55.440><c> he</c><00:34:55.679><c> has</c><00:34:55.940><c> worked</c><00:34:56.300><c> for,</c><00:34:57.460><c> he's</c><00:34:57.739><c> leaving</c><00:34:58.139><c> behind.</c>

00:35:00.099 --> 00:35:01.500
He<00:35:00.619><c> wasn't</c><00:35:01.119><c> arrogant.</c>

00:35:01.699 --> 00:35:03.079
There<00:35:01.840><c> was</c><00:35:02.079><c> no</c><00:35:02.400><c> pride</c><00:35:02.719><c> in</c><00:35:02.940><c> this.</c>

00:35:03.079 --> 00:35:06.480
He<00:35:03.239><c> had</c><00:35:03.440><c> been</c><00:35:03.739><c> humbled</c><00:35:04.420><c> by</c><00:35:05.539><c> the</c><00:35:05.719><c> hand</c><00:35:05.920><c> of</c><00:35:06.199><c> God</c>

00:35:06.480 --> 00:35:10.300

And<00:36:04.940><c> the</c><00:36:04.960><c> guy</c><00:36:05.119><c> goes,</c><00:36:05.599><c> if</c><00:36:05.739><c> I'd</c><00:36:06.119><c> kill</c><00:36:06.280><c> him,</c><00:36:06.460><c> you</c><00:36:06.579><c> would've</c><00:36:06.920><c> killed</c><00:36:07.119><c> me.</c>

00:36:07.500 --> 00:36:08.920
What<00:36:07.639><c> are</c><00:36:07.719><c> you</c><00:36:07.880><c> talking</c><00:36:08.139><c> about?</c>

00:36:09.619 --> 00:36:14.000
So<00:36:10.099><c> Joab</c><00:36:10.579><c> eventually,</c><00:36:12.159><c> his</c><00:36:12.380><c> armaberes</c><00:36:12.800><c> eventually</c><00:36:13.320><c> do</c><00:36:13.619><c> kill</c><00:36:13.820><c> him,</c>

00:36:14.079 --> 00:36:16.800
throw<00:36:14.199><c> some</c><00:36:14.500><c> dots</c><00:36:14.739><c> in</c><00:36:14.920><c> his</c><00:36:15.099><c> heart</c><00:36:15.260><c> or</c><00:36:15.400><c> whatever,</c><00:36:15.699><c> and</c><00:36:15.800><c> he's</c><00:36:16.039><c> dead.</c>

00:36:17.500 --> 00:36:19.340
And<00:36:17.980><c> honestly,</c><00:36:18.599><c> brothers</c><00:36:18.699><c> and</c><00:36:18.980><c> sisters,</c>

00:36:19.460 --> 00:36:22.679
as<00:36:19.900><c> kind</c><00:36:20.139><c> of</c><00:36:20.880><c> brutal</c><00:36:21.159><c> as</c><00:36:21.420><c> that</c><00:36:21.719><c> was,</c>

00:36:23.179 --> 00:36:25.739
it<00:36:23.280><c> was</c><00:36:23.500><c> the</c><00:36:23.619><c> right</c><00:36:23.760><c> thing</c><00:36:24.000><c> to</c><00:36:24.159><c> do</c><00:36:24.280><c> at</c><00:36:24.519><c> the</c><00:36:24.679><c> time.</c>

00:36:26.340 --> 00:36:28.199
Unfortunately,<00:36:27.260><c> sadly.</c>

00:36:28.139 --> 00:36:32.780
And<00:36:28.460><c> David</c><00:36:29.340><c> is</c><00:36:29.539><c> gonna</c><00:36:29.840><c> weep,</c><00:36:30.539><c> oh,</c><00:36:30.900><c> Absalom,</c><00:36:31.519><c> my</c><00:36:31.800><c> son.</c>

00:36:33.519 --> 00:36:34.159
Absalom.

00:36:34.260 --> 00:36:37.679
And<00:36:34.380><c> to</c><00:36:34.500><c> the</c><00:36:34.719><c> point</c><00:36:34.960><c> where</c><00:36:36.079><c> the</c><00:36:36.820><c> great</c><00:36:37.179><c> victory,</c>

00:36:37.880 --> 00:36:40.300
it<00:36:38.099><c> says</c><00:36:38.239><c> it</c><00:36:38.400><c> was</c><00:36:38.579><c> turned</c><00:36:38.900><c> into</c><00:36:39.199><c> mourning.</c>

00:36:40.920 --> 00:36:46.719
And<00:36:41.099><c> Joab's</c><00:36:41.539><c> like,</c><00:36:41.699><c> if</c><00:36:41.920><c> you</c><00:36:42.239><c> don't</c><00:36:42.679><c> stop</c><00:36:43.659><c> crying</c><00:36:45.099><c> about</c><00:36:45.539><c> your</c><00:36:45.880><c> son,</c>

00:36:47.239 --> 00:36:49.380
then<00:36:47.340><c> your</c><00:36:47.619><c> whole</c><00:36:48.079><c> kingdom</c><00:36:48.559><c> is</c><00:36:48.800><c> gonna</c><00:36:48.940><c> be</c><00:36:49.199><c> taken.</c>

00:36:49.539 --> 00:36:51.059
Everyone<00:36:49.980><c> is</c><00:36:50.199><c> gonna</c><00:36:50.400><c> leave</c><00:36:50.719><c> you.</c>

00:36:51.539 --> 00:36:53.699
You<00:36:51.760><c> are</c><00:36:52.019><c> way</c><00:36:52.340><c> off</c><00:36:52.619><c> on</c><00:36:52.880><c> this.</c>

00:36:53.880 --> 00:36:55.880
Can't<00:36:54.260><c> be</c><00:36:54.559><c> crying</c><00:36:54.880><c> about</c><00:36:55.199><c> Absalom.</c>

00:36:55.880 --> 00:36:58.679
Look<00:36:55.880><c> what</c><00:36:56.880><c> he</c><00:36:57.019><c> did</c><00:36:57.219><c> to</c><00:36:57.500><c> you.</c>

00:36:59.239 --> 00:37:02.340
Joab's<00:36:59.780><c> obviously</c><00:37:00.139><c> trying</c><00:37:00.460><c> to</c><00:37:01.099><c> protect</c><00:37:01.460><c> himself</c><00:37:01.940><c> as</c><00:37:02.219><c> well.</c>

00:37:02.599 --> 00:37:05.139
But<00:37:02.599><c> it</c><00:37:03.039><c> eventually</c><00:37:03.420><c> gets</c><00:37:03.760><c> out</c><00:37:04.019><c> that,</c><00:37:04.679><c> hey,</c>

00:37:05.380 --> 00:37:08.380
despite<00:37:05.760><c> you</c><00:37:06.099><c> telling</c><00:37:06.340><c> everyone</c><00:37:07.019><c> not</c><00:37:07.460><c> to</c><00:37:07.679><c> kill</c><00:37:07.920><c> Absalom,</c>

00:37:08.659 --> 00:37:10.420
Joab<00:37:08.940><c> killed</c><00:37:09.239><c> Absalom.</c>

00:37:11.340 --> 00:37:14.719
That's<00:37:11.739><c> just,</c><00:37:12.079><c> that</c><00:37:12.840><c> tracks</c><00:37:13.119><c> for</c><00:37:13.380><c> Joab,</c><00:37:13.840><c> right?</c>

00:37:15.480 --> 00:37:16.719
So<00:37:15.880><c> there</c><00:37:16.019><c> is</c><00:37:16.260><c> a</c><00:37:16.400><c> victory.</c>

00:37:16.860 --> 00:37:20.500
It<00:37:17.079><c> restores</c><00:37:17.460><c> David's</c><00:37:18.099><c> throne,</c><00:37:18.300><c> but</c><00:37:18.820><c> at</c><00:37:19.039><c> an</c><00:37:19.320><c> enormous</c><00:37:19.679><c> personal</c>

00:37:20.500 --> 00:37:22.360
and<00:37:21.280><c> political</c><00:37:21.820><c> cost.</c>

00:37:22.360 --> 00:37:26.880
You<00:37:22.360><c> know,</c><00:37:23.760><c> a</c><00:37:23.880><c> civil</c><00:37:24.219><c> war,</c><00:37:24.679><c> bad</c><00:37:24.880><c> news,</c><00:37:25.659><c> bad</c><00:37:25.900><c> news.</c>

00:37:28.220 --> 00:37:32.039
Joab's<00:37:28.820><c> pragmatism</c><00:37:29.420><c> saves</c><00:37:29.980><c> the</c><00:37:30.280><c> kingdom,</c><00:37:31.199><c> yep.</c>

00:37:33.060 --> 00:37:37.800
David's<00:37:33.660><c> misguided</c><00:37:34.260><c> mercy</c><00:37:35.380><c> nearly</c><00:37:36.340><c> cost</c><00:37:36.739><c> it,</c><00:37:37.559><c> right?</c>

00:37:38.000 --> 00:37:39.619
Misguided<00:37:38.599><c> mercy.</c>

00:37:40.239 --> 00:37:43.199
Joab<00:37:40.559><c> didn't</c><00:37:40.780><c> have</c><00:37:41.019><c> any</c><00:37:41.320><c> misguided</c><00:37:41.800><c> mercy</c><00:37:42.139><c> at</c><00:37:42.360><c> all.</c>

00:37:43.280 --> 00:37:45.599
This<00:37:43.780><c> is</c><00:37:44.039><c> our</c><00:37:44.219><c> opportunity,</c><00:37:44.800><c> we're</c><00:37:44.840><c> not</c><00:37:45.000><c> playing</c><00:37:45.239><c> games.</c>

00:37:45.920 --> 00:37:48.380
You<00:37:46.000><c> know,</c><00:37:46.079><c> these</c><00:37:46.260><c> are</c><00:37:46.500><c> the</c><00:37:46.639><c> same,</c><00:37:46.900><c> the</c><00:37:47.039><c> sons</c><00:37:47.280><c> of</c><00:37:47.699><c> Zeruiah,</c>

00:37:48.599 --> 00:37:50.840
these<00:37:48.840><c> are</c><00:37:49.079><c> the</c><00:37:49.199><c> same</c><00:37:49.420><c> guys</c><00:37:49.659><c> that</c><00:37:49.840><c> kept</c><00:37:50.000><c> on</c><00:37:50.280><c> telling</c><00:37:50.400><c> David</c>

00:37:50.840 --> 00:37:52.739
to<00:37:51.039><c> kill</c><00:37:51.260><c> Saul,</c><00:37:52.159><c> you</c><00:37:52.380><c> know.</c>

00:37:52.900 --> 00:37:54.840
He's<00:37:53.260><c> right</c><00:37:53.480><c> here,</c><00:37:53.719><c> he's</c><00:37:53.880><c> laying</c><00:37:54.059><c> here</c><00:37:54.360><c> next</c><00:37:54.659><c> to</c><00:37:54.760><c> you.</c>

00:37:55.159 --> 00:37:57.519
Just,<00:37:55.400><c> I'll</c><00:37:55.780><c> kill</c><00:37:55.940><c> him</c><00:37:56.079><c> for</c><00:37:56.300><c> you.</c>

00:37:58.000 --> 00:38:00.460
All<00:37:58.239><c> right,</c><00:37:59.300><c> where</c><00:37:59.440><c> we</c><00:37:59.579><c> go?</c>

00:38:02.539 --> 00:38:05.579
Okay,<00:38:03.059><c> very</c><00:38:03.519><c> quickly,</c><00:38:04.119><c> Sheba's</c><00:38:04.500><c> rebellion.</c>

00:38:05.900 --> 00:38:11.800
Then<00:38:06.019><c> there</c><00:38:06.199><c> was</c><00:38:06.400><c> some,</c><00:38:07.820><c> the</c><00:38:09.139><c> land</c><00:38:10.519><c> was</c><00:38:10.820><c> stabilized</c><00:38:11.340><c> quite</c><00:38:11.599><c> a</c><00:38:11.739><c> bit.</c>

00:38:11.820 --> 00:38:13.420
It<00:38:11.860><c> was</c><00:38:12.059><c> very</c><00:38:12.460><c> brief.</c>

00:38:14.440 --> 00:38:16.400
But<00:38:14.639><c> again,</c><00:38:15.139><c> another</c><00:38:15.559><c> kind</c><00:38:15.860><c> of</c><00:38:16.079><c> rebellion.</c>

00:38:16.480 --> 00:38:18.719
People<00:38:16.840><c> are</c><00:38:17.079><c> just</c><00:38:17.239><c> kind</c><00:38:17.420><c> of</c><00:38:17.599><c> trying</c><00:38:17.920><c> to</c><00:38:18.239><c> break</c><00:38:18.420><c> away.</c>

00:38:18.719 --> 00:38:20.460
I<00:38:18.820><c> think</c><00:38:18.960><c> it</c><00:38:19.059><c> was</c><00:38:19.219><c> a</c><00:38:19.320><c> very</c><00:38:19.599><c> tribal</c><00:38:19.980><c> thing.</c>

00:38:20.920 --> 00:38:23.380
You<00:38:21.039><c> know,</c><00:38:21.280><c> the</c><00:38:21.500><c> stability</c><00:38:22.000><c> and</c><00:38:22.239><c> the</c><00:38:22.559><c> strength</c>

00:38:23.920 --> 00:38:27.280
that<00:38:24.519><c> David</c><00:38:24.960><c> had,</c><00:38:25.599><c> you</c><00:38:25.860><c> know,</c><00:38:26.760><c> placed</c><00:38:26.960><c> throughout</c>

00:38:27.280 --> 00:38:30.460
the<00:38:27.460><c> whole</c><00:38:27.679><c> kingdom,</c><00:38:28.179><c> it</c><00:38:28.340><c> was</c><00:38:28.519><c> slowly</c><00:38:29.139><c> being</c><00:38:29.599><c> worn</c><00:38:29.960><c> down.</c>

00:38:30.760 --> 00:38:33.199
And<00:38:30.900><c> this</c><00:38:31.099><c> is</c><00:38:31.280><c> a</c><00:38:31.320><c> great</c><00:38:31.460><c> picture</c><00:38:31.800><c> here</c><00:38:32.119><c> of,</c>

00:38:33.579 --> 00:38:39.739
a<00:38:33.599><c> mesa</c><00:38:33.860><c> had</c><00:38:34.119><c> been</c><00:38:34.440><c> given</c><00:38:34.719><c> the</c><00:38:37.079><c> chief</c><00:38:37.579><c> of</c><00:38:37.900><c> the</c><00:38:38.199><c> army,</c><00:38:38.599><c> okay,</c><00:38:39.019><c> by</c><00:38:39.280><c> David,</c>

00:38:40.179 --> 00:38:41.780
because<00:38:40.559><c> of</c><00:38:40.880><c> Joab's</c><00:38:41.340><c> kind</c><00:38:41.480><c> of,</c><00:38:41.579><c> you</c><00:38:41.599><c> know,</c>

00:38:41.940 --> 00:38:44.179
not<00:38:42.079><c> following</c><00:38:42.340><c> directions</c><00:38:42.940><c> very</c><00:38:43.360><c> well.</c>

00:38:44.340 --> 00:38:47.780
But<00:38:44.699><c> Joab</c><00:38:45.860><c> ends</c><00:38:46.300><c> up</c><00:38:46.519><c> killing</c><00:38:46.800><c> a</c><00:38:47.039><c> mesa</c><00:38:47.239><c> as</c><00:38:47.599><c> well.</c>

00:38:47.780 --> 00:38:50.320
Are<00:38:48.340><c> you</c><00:38:48.539><c> in</c><00:38:48.719><c> health,</c><00:38:49.039><c> my</c><00:38:49.360><c> brother?</c>

00:38:50.579 --> 00:38:51.179
Right?

00:38:51.420 --> 00:38:52.840
Right<00:38:51.760><c> in</c><00:38:51.940><c> the</c><00:38:52.059><c> fifth</c><00:38:52.280><c> rib,</c><00:38:52.460><c> baby.</c>

00:38:53.000 --> 00:38:54.860
No<00:38:53.239><c> coming</c><00:38:53.500><c> back</c><00:38:53.840><c> from</c><00:38:54.079><c> that.</c>

00:38:55.360 --> 00:38:57.800
So<00:38:55.679><c> again,</c><00:38:56.380><c> still</c><00:38:56.519><c> not</c><00:38:56.880><c> stable.</c>

00:38:59.199 --> 00:39:00.900
David's<00:38:59.719><c> final</c><00:38:59.940><c> days.</c>

00:39:00.960 --> 00:39:04.980
Succession<00:39:01.599><c> crisis,</c><00:39:02.920><c> elderly</c><00:39:03.380><c> and</c><00:39:03.820><c> frail.</c>

00:39:05.059 --> 00:39:08.059
Adenide<00:39:05.619><c> your</c><00:39:05.820><c> attempts</c><00:39:06.119><c> to</c><00:39:07.099><c> seize</c><00:39:07.340><c> the</c><00:39:07.699><c> throne.</c>

00:39:08.400 --> 00:39:11.300
This<00:39:08.639><c> is</c><00:39:08.800><c> when</c><00:39:08.940><c> Nathan</c><00:39:09.340><c> and</c><00:39:09.559><c> Bathsheba</c><00:39:10.119><c> intervene.</c>

00:39:11.539 --> 00:39:14.320
David<00:39:11.980><c> says,</c><00:39:12.579><c> no,</c><00:39:12.900><c> Solomon</c><00:39:13.280><c> is</c><00:39:13.539><c> the</c><00:39:13.659><c> year</c><00:39:13.860><c> appointed.</c>

00:39:14.599 --> 00:39:16.539
We're<00:39:14.880><c> gonna</c><00:39:15.159><c> anoint</c><00:39:15.500><c> him.</c>

00:39:17.340 --> 00:39:20.860
And<00:39:17.820><c> so</c><00:39:18.019><c> again,</c><00:39:18.420><c> more</c><00:39:18.739><c> kind</c><00:39:19.000><c> of</c><00:39:19.239><c> court</c><00:39:19.480><c> intrigue.</c>

00:39:21.139 --> 00:39:22.579
Ongoing<00:39:21.619><c> power</c><00:39:21.980><c> struggles.</c>

00:39:22.960 --> 00:39:26.300
And<00:39:23.119><c> then</c><00:39:23.380><c> finally</c><00:39:23.659><c> David</c><00:39:24.420><c> reasserts</c><00:39:25.320><c> control,</c>

00:39:26.400 --> 00:39:28.940
you<00:39:26.639><c> know,</c><00:39:26.780><c> through</c><00:39:27.000><c> the</c><00:39:27.199><c> point</c><00:39:27.400><c> of</c><00:39:27.579><c> no,</c><00:39:27.780><c> he</c><00:39:28.000><c> is</c><00:39:28.239><c> going</c><00:39:28.480><c> to</c><00:39:28.659><c> be</c><00:39:28.820><c> king.</c>

00:39:29.039 --> 00:39:31.199
And<00:39:29.239><c> Adenide</c><00:39:29.719><c> just</c><00:39:29.900><c> still</c><00:39:30.139><c> tries</c><00:39:30.440><c> to</c><00:39:30.679><c> wheel</c><00:39:30.860><c> and</c><00:39:31.059><c> deal</c>

00:39:31.199 --> 00:39:33.519
because<00:39:31.440><c> he</c><00:39:31.639><c> tries</c><00:39:31.840><c> to</c><00:39:32.019><c> get</c><00:39:32.079><c> one</c><00:39:32.260><c> of</c><00:39:32.380><c> David's</c><00:39:32.940><c> concubines.</c>

00:39:33.960 --> 00:39:35.980
I<00:39:34.159><c> think</c><00:39:34.159><c> Abishag,</c><00:39:34.800><c> right,</c><00:39:34.940><c> was</c><00:39:35.039><c> the</c><00:39:35.219><c> name?</c>

00:39:36.380 --> 00:39:37.639
All<00:39:36.559><c> right,</c><00:39:36.820><c> anyways.</c>

00:39:38.719 --> 00:39:42.260
Death,<00:39:40.159><c> he</c><00:39:40.400><c> tells</c><00:39:40.659><c> Solomon</c><00:39:41.239><c> to</c><00:39:41.440><c> be</c><00:39:41.739><c> strong,</c>

00:39:42.539 --> 00:39:45.000

00:39:45.000 --> 00:39:46.920
Keep<00:39:45.239><c> it</c><00:39:45.480><c> rolling,</c><00:39:45.800><c> keep</c><00:39:46.019><c> it</c><00:39:46.199><c> going.</c>

00:39:47.800 --> 00:39:51.079
He<00:39:48.000><c> also</c><00:39:48.380><c> tells</c><00:39:48.659><c> him</c><00:39:48.860><c> to</c><00:39:49.139><c> deal</c><00:39:49.340><c> with</c><00:39:49.699><c> unfinished</c><00:39:50.119><c> political</c><00:39:50.739><c> threats.</c>

00:39:51.559 --> 00:39:55.960
Joab,<00:39:52.800><c> Shemiah,</c><00:39:53.460><c> right,</c><00:39:53.880><c> was</c><00:39:54.199><c> throwing</c><00:39:54.460><c> rocks</c><00:39:54.800><c> at</c><00:39:55.039><c> him.</c>

00:39:56.159 --> 00:39:58.139
David's<00:39:56.440><c> gonna</c><00:39:56.599><c> die</c><00:39:56.880><c> at</c><00:39:57.139><c> 70</c><00:39:57.440><c> years</c><00:39:57.820><c> old.</c>

00:39:58.219 --> 00:40:00.880
He's<00:39:58.460><c> gonna</c><00:39:58.579><c> be</c><00:39:58.840><c> buried</c><00:39:59.099><c> in</c><00:39:59.280><c> the</c><00:39:59.460><c> city</c><00:39:59.639><c> of</c><00:39:59.920><c> David.</c>

00:40:01.659 --> 00:40:04.360
And<00:40:01.900><c> we're</c><00:40:02.119><c> told</c><00:40:02.260><c> about</c><00:40:02.539><c> this</c><00:40:02.780><c> in</c><00:40:03.119><c> First</c><00:40:03.460><c> Kings.</c>

00:40:04.960 --> 00:40:08.139
But,<00:40:05.400><c> you</c><00:40:05.539><c> know,</c><00:40:05.760><c> kind</c><00:40:05.980><c> of,</c><00:40:06.519><c> this</c><00:40:06.719><c> is</c><00:40:06.940><c> the</c><00:40:07.039><c> last</c><00:40:07.280><c> slide</c><00:40:07.579><c> right</c><00:40:07.860><c> here.</c>

00:40:08.480 --> 00:40:11.860
The<00:40:08.780><c> high</c><00:40:09.260><c> cost</c><00:40:09.699><c> of</c><00:40:10.139><c> sin</c><00:40:10.500><c> in</c><00:40:10.880><c> leadership,</c><00:40:11.599><c> right?</c>

00:40:12.280 --> 00:40:14.719
David's<00:40:12.840><c> adultery</c><00:40:13.280><c> and</c><00:40:13.519><c> murder,</c><00:40:13.960><c> family</c><00:40:14.320><c> chaos.</c>

00:40:14.719 --> 00:40:18.619
Two<00:40:15.099><c> major</c><00:40:15.840><c> rebellions</c><00:40:17.119><c> against</c><00:40:17.840><c> David</c>

00:40:21.139 --> 00:40:23.079
It<00:40:21.320><c> was</c><00:40:21.579><c> fulfilled,</c><00:40:22.480><c> the</c><00:40:22.659><c> prophecy,</c>

00:40:23.199 --> 00:40:25.219
the<00:40:23.400><c> sword</c><00:40:23.659><c> will</c><00:40:23.920><c> never</c><00:40:24.159><c> depart</c><00:40:24.559><c> from</c><00:40:24.840><c> your</c><00:40:25.000><c> house.</c>

00:40:25.340 --> 00:40:27.099
You<00:40:25.340><c> know,</c><00:40:25.539><c> David</c><00:40:25.719><c> is</c><00:40:25.920><c> gonna</c><00:40:26.119><c> lose,</c><00:40:26.880><c> you</c><00:40:27.019><c> know,</c>

00:40:27.179 --> 00:40:30.199
it<00:40:27.320><c> makes</c><00:40:27.519><c> mention</c><00:40:27.940><c> there</c><00:40:28.500><c> of</c><00:40:29.139><c> that</c><00:40:29.460><c> David</c><00:40:29.900><c> said</c>

00:40:38.820 --> 00:40:42.639
So<00:40:39.159><c> Uriah,</c><00:40:39.980><c> you</c><00:40:40.360><c> know,</c><00:40:41.159><c> was</c><00:40:41.800><c> killed.</c>

00:40:43.000 --> 00:40:44.639
And<00:40:43.300><c> you</c><00:40:43.500><c> could</c><00:40:43.760><c> make</c><00:40:43.940><c> the</c><00:40:44.199><c> argument</c>

00:40:44.639 --> 00:40:48.800
that<00:40:45.019><c> four</c><00:40:45.500><c> of</c><00:40:45.760><c> David's</c><00:40:46.360><c> sons</c><00:40:46.500><c> also</c><00:40:47.019><c> died</c><00:40:47.460><c> as</c><00:40:47.860><c> well.</c>

00:40:49.600 --> 00:40:51.699
Amnon,<00:40:50.200><c> Daniel</c><00:40:50.800><c> is</c><00:40:51.000><c> mentioned</c><00:40:51.400><c> in</c><00:40:51.579><c> there.</c>

00:40:51.699 --> 00:40:53.739
We're<00:40:51.900><c> not</c><00:40:52.159><c> told,</c><00:40:52.400><c> but</c><00:40:52.440><c> he's</c><00:40:52.659><c> never</c><00:40:52.900><c> mentioned</c><00:40:53.239><c> again.</c>

00:40:54.219 --> 00:40:59.059
Okay,<00:40:54.579><c> Amnon,</c><00:40:55.440><c> Daniel,</c><00:40:57.800><c> Absalom,</c>

00:40:59.119 --> 00:41:02.099
and<00:40:59.179><c> then</c><00:40:59.420><c> eventually</c><00:40:59.940><c> Adonijah</c><00:41:00.719><c> is</c><00:41:00.980><c> also</c><00:41:01.340><c> going</c><00:41:01.559><c> to</c><00:41:01.739><c> be</c><00:41:01.880><c> killed.</c>

00:41:02.579 --> 00:41:04.480
So<00:41:03.000><c> is</c><00:41:03.920><c> that</c><00:41:04.119><c> a</c><00:41:04.280><c> connection?</c>

00:41:04.539 --> 00:41:07.940
I<00:41:04.699><c> don't</c><00:41:04.920><c> know,</c><00:41:05.139><c> but</c><00:41:05.800><c> it</c><00:41:06.300><c> is</c><00:41:06.539><c> four</c><00:41:06.760><c> sons</c><00:41:07.159><c> fourfold.</c>

00:41:08.239 --> 00:41:09.260
Don't<00:41:08.460><c> know.</c>

00:41:10.740 --> 00:41:13.199
Personal<00:41:11.300><c> moral</c><00:41:11.760><c> feelings</c><00:41:12.219><c> erode</c><00:41:12.539><c> public</c><00:41:12.940><c> trust</c>

00:41:13.199 --> 00:41:14.760

00:41:14.920 --> 00:41:17.639
Yeah,<00:41:15.199><c> 100%,</c><00:41:16.400><c> 100%.</c>

00:41:17.639 --> 00:41:19.440
You<00:41:18.059><c> weaken</c><00:41:18.380><c> yourself,</c><00:41:19.159><c> right?</c>

00:41:19.440 --> 00:41:21.539
When<00:41:19.659><c> all</c><00:41:19.840><c> of</c><00:41:19.940><c> your</c><00:41:20.179><c> personal</c><00:41:20.619><c> flaws,</c><00:41:21.280><c> right?</c>

00:41:21.559 --> 00:41:23.380
And<00:41:21.659><c> you're</c><00:41:21.980><c> not</c><00:41:22.159><c> doing</c><00:41:22.460><c> anything</c><00:41:22.840><c> about</c><00:41:23.139><c> them.</c>

00:41:23.420 --> 00:41:24.539
They're<00:41:23.559><c> just</c><00:41:23.780><c> who</c><00:41:23.980><c> you</c><00:41:24.179><c> are.</c>

00:41:24.900 --> 00:41:27.559
You<00:41:25.019><c> know,</c><00:41:25.199><c> people</c><00:41:25.460><c> start</c><00:41:25.760><c> taking</c><00:41:26.059><c> note</c><00:41:26.440><c> of</c><00:41:26.699><c> that.</c>

00:41:28.159 --> 00:41:32.619
Even<00:41:28.500><c> a</c><00:41:28.780><c> man</c><00:41:29.019><c> after</c><00:41:29.320><c> God's</c><00:41:29.820><c> own</c><00:41:30.039><c> heart</c><00:41:30.380><c> faces</c><00:41:30.900><c> real</c><00:41:31.340><c> consequences.</c>

00:41:34.240 --> 00:41:37.340
We<00:41:34.800><c> should</c><00:41:35.360><c> expect</c><00:41:35.760><c> the</c><00:41:36.019><c> same</c><00:41:36.219><c> with</c><00:41:36.460><c> our</c><00:41:36.699><c> sins</c><00:41:36.900><c> as</c><00:41:37.179><c> well.</c>

00:41:37.340 --> 00:41:38.940
Doesn't<00:41:37.800><c> happen</c><00:41:38.219><c> all</c><00:41:38.460><c> the</c><00:41:38.639><c> time.</c>

00:41:39.400 --> 00:41:41.800
I<00:41:39.440><c> know</c><00:41:39.639><c> in</c><00:41:39.880><c> my</c><00:41:40.099><c> life,</c><00:41:41.420><c> you</c><00:41:41.440><c> know,</c>

00:41:41.840 --> 00:41:44.199
I've<00:41:42.400><c> been</c><00:41:42.579><c> given</c><00:41:42.800><c> a</c><00:41:42.900><c> lot</c><00:41:43.139><c> of</c><00:41:43.340><c> grace</c><00:41:43.579><c> from</c><00:41:43.840><c> God.</c>

00:41:44.340 --> 00:41:46.340
He<00:41:44.579><c> blessed</c><00:41:44.900><c> me</c><00:41:45.260><c> tremendously.</c>

00:41:47.700 --> 00:41:51.480
I<00:41:48.380><c> haven't</c><00:41:49.059><c> gotten</c><00:41:49.619><c> what</c><00:41:50.099><c> I</c><00:41:50.400><c> deserve</c>

00:41:51.840 --> 00:41:54.400
because<00:41:52.519><c> of</c><00:41:52.699><c> his</c><00:41:52.820><c> mercy</c><00:41:53.199><c> and</c><00:41:53.400><c> his</c><00:41:53.579><c> grace.</c>

00:41:55.179 --> 00:41:56.980
And<00:41:55.320><c> so</c><00:41:55.719><c> throughout</c><00:41:56.099><c> all</c><00:41:56.400><c> of</c><00:41:56.579><c> this,</c>

00:41:57.440 --> 00:42:01.320
the<00:41:57.579><c> one</c><00:41:57.800><c> thing</c><00:41:57.940><c> that</c><00:41:58.159><c> remained</c><00:41:58.820><c> secure</c><00:41:59.840><c> and</c><00:42:00.440><c> firm</c>

00:42:01.440 --> 00:42:06.579
was<00:42:01.780><c> God's</c><00:42:02.900><c> foundational</c><00:42:03.639><c> promise</c><00:42:04.639><c> to</c><00:42:05.659><c> David.</c>

00:42:06.690 --> 00:42:09.260
That<00:42:06.980><c> he,</c><00:42:07.760><c> from</c><00:42:08.039><c> him</c><00:42:08.420><c> and</c><00:42:08.559><c> his</c><00:42:08.880><c> line,</c>

00:42:09.519 --> 00:42:11.760
the<00:42:09.760><c> savior</c><00:42:10.280><c> of</c><00:42:10.659><c> the</c><00:42:10.840><c> world</c><00:42:11.159><c> would</c><00:42:11.480><c> come,</c>

00:42:11.980 --> 00:42:14.460
the<00:42:12.219><c> Messiah,</c><00:42:12.940><c> the</c><00:42:13.199><c> promised</c><00:42:13.480><c> Messiah.</c>

00:42:14.679 --> 00:42:16.260
And<00:42:14.800><c> so</c><00:42:14.960><c> David</c><00:42:15.159><c> was</c><00:42:15.400><c> a</c><00:42:15.619><c> flawed</c><00:42:15.820><c> man,</c>

00:42:16.599 --> 00:42:18.280
but<00:42:16.719><c> he</c><00:42:16.800><c> was</c><00:42:17.039><c> a</c><00:42:17.159><c> man</c><00:42:17.320><c> after</c><00:42:17.599><c> God's</c><00:42:18.019><c> own</c><00:42:18.159><c> heart.</c>

00:42:18.480 --> 00:42:20.539
He<00:42:18.500><c> had</c><00:42:19.039><c> some</c><00:42:19.340><c> wonderful</c><00:42:20.000><c> abilities.</c>
