that<00:13:55.019><c> when</c><00:13:55.299><c> you</c><00:13:55.580><c> read</c><00:13:55.799><c> Genesis</c><00:13:56.240><c> 22,</c>

00:13:57.279 --> 00:13:59.559
don't<00:13:57.500><c> just</c><00:13:57.919><c> think</c><00:13:58.200><c> of</c><00:13:58.399><c> Abraham</c><00:13:58.840><c> and</c><00:13:59.179><c> Isaac.</c>

00:13:59.700 --> 00:14:02.779

00:14:13.919 --> 00:14:18.919
as<00:14:14.399><c> we</c><00:14:14.639><c> set</c><00:14:14.899><c> the</c><00:14:15.259><c> scene</c><00:14:15.620><c> for</c><00:14:16.440><c> what</c><00:14:17.139><c> now</c><00:14:17.700><c> follows.</c>

00:14:27.179 --> 00:14:32.820

the<00:14:37.179><c> Gospel</c><00:14:37.559><c> writers</c><00:14:37.879><c> are</c><00:14:38.220><c> extremely</c><00:14:38.679><c> sparing,</c><00:14:39.480><c> aren't</c><00:14:39.679><c> they?</c>

00:14:40.159 --> 00:14:44.399
They<00:14:41.120><c> don't</c><00:14:41.460><c> dwell</c><00:14:42.059><c> on</c><00:14:42.679><c> the</c><00:14:43.200><c> torture</c><00:14:43.600><c> of</c><00:14:43.799><c> the</c><00:14:44.019><c> moment</c>

00:14:53.159 --> 00:14:56.360
It's<00:14:53.759><c> the</c><00:14:54.120><c> briefest</c><00:14:54.620><c> of</c><00:14:54.960><c> records</c>

00:14:56.700 --> 00:15:01.259

00:15:09.139 --> 00:15:11.120
And<00:15:09.759><c> here,</c><00:15:10.200><c> I</c><00:15:10.399><c> suggest</c><00:15:10.779><c> to</c><00:15:11.000><c> you,</c>

00:15:11.139 --> 00:15:13.820

00:21:20.039 --> 00:21:21.380
You<00:21:20.259><c> can</c><00:21:20.440><c> see</c><00:21:20.539><c> how</c><00:21:20.700><c> it</c><00:21:20.819><c> might</c><00:21:21.059><c> work.</c>

00:21:21.740 --> 00:21:23.700
Jewish<00:21:21.779><c> tradition</c><00:21:22.220><c> has</c><00:21:22.380><c> it</c><00:21:22.579><c> like</c><00:21:22.839><c> that.</c>

00:21:31.640 --> 00:21:34.700
That's<00:21:32.220><c> not</c><00:21:32.339><c> how</c><00:21:32.539><c> Scripture</c><00:21:32.920><c> presents</c><00:21:33.359><c> it</c><00:21:33.539><c> to</c><00:21:33.759><c> me.</c>

00:43:21.599 --> 00:43:24.179
Have<00:43:22.199><c> you</c><00:43:22.320><c> asked</c><00:43:22.559><c> yourself</c><00:43:23.059><c> this</c><00:43:23.619><c> question?</c>

00:43:24.440 --> 00:43:28.880
Why<00:43:25.119><c> is</c><00:43:25.400><c> it</c><00:43:25.659><c> necessary</c><00:43:26.239><c> that</c><00:43:26.980><c> a</c><00:43:27.260><c> man</c><00:43:27.500><c> takes</c><00:43:27.860><c> his</c><00:43:28.179><c> beloved</c><00:43:28.480><c> son</c>

00:43:42.840 --> 00:43:43.440
And<00:43:42.980><c> it's</c><00:43:43.159><c> interesting.</c>

00:43:43.940 --> 00:43:45.440

The<00:44:00.880><c> Passover</c><00:44:01.280><c> lamb</c><00:44:01.719><c> was</c><00:44:01.960><c> all</c><00:44:02.139><c> a</c><00:44:02.400><c> foreshadowing</c><00:44:03.059><c> of</c><00:44:03.260><c> the</c><00:44:03.460><c> sacrifice</c><00:44:03.920><c> of</c><00:44:04.159><c> Christ,</c>

00:44:12.780 --> 00:44:16.400
Why<00:44:13.260><c> did</c><00:44:13.739><c> the</c><00:44:13.980><c> Lord</c><00:44:14.199><c> design</c><00:44:14.820><c> all</c><00:44:15.139><c> these</c><00:44:15.420><c> shadows</c><00:44:15.820><c> and</c><00:44:16.159><c> types</c>

00:44:20.019 --> 00:44:21.000
Why?

00:44:22.219 --> 00:44:25.079
And<00:44:22.360><c> the</c><00:44:22.440><c> brothers</c><00:44:22.599><c> and</c><00:44:22.760><c> sisters</c><00:44:22.800><c> say,</c><00:44:23.159><c> well,</c><00:44:23.639><c> it</c><00:44:24.420><c> designed</c>

00:44:33.099 --> 00:44:36.420
Yes,<00:44:33.559><c> but</c><00:44:33.800><c> why</c><00:44:34.199><c> is</c><00:44:34.380><c> it</c><00:44:34.679><c> designed</c><00:44:35.059><c> in</c><00:44:35.300><c> that</c><00:44:35.539><c> way?</c>

00:44:36.699 --> 00:44:40.960
