That<00:10:13.220><c> is</c><00:10:13.539><c> not</c><00:10:14.019><c> why</c><00:10:14.600><c> the</c><00:10:14.820><c> boy</c><00:10:14.919><c> was</c><00:10:15.159><c> hidden.</c>

There's<00:10:45.519><c> the</c><00:10:45.700><c> reason.</c>

00:10:49.360 --> 00:10:52.519
Not<00:10:49.820><c> perhaps</c><00:10:50.240><c> why</c><00:10:50.539><c> we</c><00:10:50.799><c> would</c><00:10:51.039><c> have</c><00:10:51.200><c> hidden</c><00:10:51.419><c> him,</c>

Thus<00:30:12.759><c> shalt</c><00:30:12.940><c> thou</c><00:30:13.160><c> say</c><00:30:13.359><c> unto</c><00:30:13.619><c> the</c><00:30:13.819><c> children</c><00:30:14.220><c> of</c><00:30:14.440><c> Israel,</c>

00:30:15.559 --> 00:30:18.240
I<00:30:15.900><c> am,</c><00:30:17.140><c> hath</c><00:30:17.279><c> sent</c><00:30:17.559><c> me</c><00:30:17.759><c> unto</c><00:30:18.000><c> you.</c>

00:30:18.240 --> 00:30:20.059
I<00:30:18.480><c> will</c><00:30:18.720><c> be</c><00:30:19.000><c> revealed.</c>

00:30:20.259 --> 00:30:23.859
And<00:30:20.819><c> in</c><00:30:21.160><c> so</c><00:30:21.980><c> many</c><00:30:22.619><c> short</c><00:30:23.259><c> words</c>

00:30:23.859 --> 00:30:26.299
we<00:30:24.500><c> hear</c><00:30:24.819><c> the</c><00:30:25.200><c> character</c><00:30:25.700><c> of</c><00:30:25.920><c> the</c><00:30:26.079><c> Father,</c>

00:30:26.640 --> 00:30:30.519
I<00:30:26.779><c> was,</c><00:30:27.839><c> I</c><00:30:28.079><c> am,</c><00:30:28.920><c> I</c><00:30:29.119><c> will</c><00:30:29.400><c> be.</c>

00:30:32.759 --> 00:30:35.000
But<00:30:32.859><c> Moses</c><00:30:33.339><c> still</c><00:30:33.980><c> doubts.</c>

00:30:36.940 --> 00:30:39.500
And<00:30:37.059><c> the</c><00:30:37.200><c> rod</c><00:30:37.359><c> becomes</c><00:30:37.799><c> a</c><00:30:38.519><c> serpent.</c>

00:30:41.039 --> 00:30:42.779
I<00:30:41.059><c> wonder</c><00:30:41.180><c> where</c><00:30:41.380><c> his</c><00:30:41.539><c> sheep</c><00:30:41.799><c> were.</c>

00:30:45.220 --> 00:30:47.660
He<00:30:45.640><c> has</c><00:30:45.859><c> no</c><00:30:46.099><c> rod</c><00:30:46.380><c> now</c>

00:30:47.660 --> 00:30:50.420
with<00:30:48.519><c> which</c><00:30:48.740><c> to</c><00:30:48.980><c> bring</c><00:30:49.119><c> them</c><00:30:49.339><c> to</c><00:30:49.539><c> heel.</c>

00:30:52.619 --> 00:30:55.900
But<00:30:53.079><c> of</c><00:30:53.259><c> course</c><00:30:53.380><c> it</c><00:30:53.519><c> becomes</c><00:30:54.160><c> a</c><00:30:54.539><c> rod</c><00:30:54.640><c> again.</c>

00:30:58.140 --> 00:30:59.559
Remember<00:30:58.319><c> he</c><00:30:58.440><c> had</c><00:30:58.599><c> no</c><00:30:58.819><c> shoes</c><00:30:59.039><c> on,</c>

00:31:00.000 --> 00:31:02.180
no<00:31:00.259><c> stamping</c><00:31:00.619><c> on</c><00:31:00.839><c> the</c><00:31:00.920><c> head</c><00:31:01.019><c> of</c><00:31:01.259><c> the</c><00:31:01.359><c> serpent.</c>

00:31:03.859 --> 00:31:05.579
But<00:31:04.119><c> then</c><00:31:04.380><c> Moses</c><00:31:04.720><c> was</c><00:31:05.039><c> not</c><00:31:05.279><c> the</c><00:31:05.380><c> one</c>

00:31:05.579 --> 00:31:08.900
designated<00:31:06.200><c> to</c><00:31:06.440><c> wound</c><00:31:06.619><c> the</c><00:31:06.859><c> serpent</c><00:31:07.160><c> in</c><00:31:07.380><c> the</c><00:31:07.460><c> head,</c><00:31:07.819><c> was</c><00:31:07.819><c> he?</c>

00:31:09.720 --> 00:31:12.440
That<00:31:10.019><c> was</c><00:31:10.220><c> to</c><00:31:10.359><c> be</c><00:31:10.480><c> left</c><00:31:10.660><c> to</c><00:31:10.839><c> a</c><00:31:10.960><c> greater</c><00:31:11.200><c> than</c><00:31:11.380><c> Moses.</c>

00:31:14.200 --> 00:31:15.880
Take<00:31:14.599><c> it</c><00:31:14.779><c> up</c>

00:31:16.960 --> 00:31:18.880
and<00:31:17.420><c> put</c><00:31:17.640><c> thine</c><00:31:17.799><c> hand</c><00:31:18.019><c> into</c><00:31:18.259><c> thy</c><00:31:18.460><c> bosom</c>

00:31:18.880 --> 00:31:22.579
and<00:31:19.599><c> take</c><00:31:19.799><c> it</c><00:31:19.980><c> out</c><00:31:20.200><c> and</c><00:31:20.380><c> it</c><00:31:20.480><c> was</c><00:31:20.839><c> leprous,</c><00:31:21.880><c> white</c><00:31:22.140><c> as</c><00:31:22.380><c> snow.</c>

00:31:22.980 --> 00:31:24.440
I<00:31:23.140><c> suggest</c><00:31:23.400><c> to</c><00:31:23.579><c> you,</c><00:31:23.779><c> brethren</c><00:31:23.920><c> and</c><00:31:24.180><c> sisters,</c>

00:31:24.539 --> 00:31:28.519
at<00:31:24.839><c> that</c><00:31:25.160><c> time</c><00:31:25.480><c> the</c><00:31:25.920><c> two</c><00:31:26.079><c> most</c><00:31:26.579><c> dreaded</c><00:31:27.099><c> afflictions,</c>

00:31:28.599 --> 00:31:29.720
serpents<00:31:28.900><c> and</c><00:31:29.099><c> leprosy,</c>

00:31:29.980 --> 00:31:32.700
and<00:31:30.200><c> Moses</c><00:31:30.619><c> later</c><00:31:31.200><c> on</c><00:31:31.420><c> is</c><00:31:31.799><c> to</c><00:31:31.940><c> come</c><00:31:32.079><c> into</c><00:31:32.339><c> collision</c>

00:31:32.700 --> 00:31:34.640

00:31:35.700 --> 00:31:36.640
He<00:31:35.859><c> descends</c><00:31:36.140><c> the</c><00:31:36.319><c> mountain</c>

00:31:36.640 --> 00:31:40.880
and<00:31:37.299><c> explains</c><00:31:38.140><c> to</c><00:31:38.460><c> Jethro</c><00:31:38.839><c> what</c><00:31:39.660><c> has</c><00:31:39.980><c> happened.</c>

00:31:43.119 --> 00:31:45.400
Just<00:31:43.599><c> come</c><00:31:43.799><c> down</c><00:31:43.980><c> the</c><00:31:44.119><c> road</c><00:31:44.259><c> of</c><00:31:44.500><c> imagination</c><00:31:45.019><c> with</c><00:31:45.240><c> me</c>

00:31:45.400 --> 00:31:46.140
for<00:31:45.539><c> a</c><00:31:45.700><c> moment,</c><00:31:46.039><c> will</c><00:31:46.039><c> you?</c>

00:31:46.160 --> 00:31:47.779
He<00:31:46.279><c> won't</c><00:31:46.420><c> do</c><00:31:46.559><c> us</c><00:31:46.720><c> any</c><00:31:46.960><c> harm.</c>

00:31:49.279 --> 00:31:50.660
It's<00:31:49.720><c> sometimes</c><00:31:49.920><c> a</c><00:31:50.079><c> good</c><00:31:50.220><c> thing,</c><00:31:50.539><c> you</c><00:31:50.539><c> know,</c>

00:31:50.660 --> 00:31:53.140

00:31:57.539 --> 00:31:59.559
Sometimes<00:31:57.980><c> in</c><00:31:58.420><c> our</c><00:31:58.720><c> animal</c><00:31:59.140><c> readings</c>

00:31:59.559 --> 00:32:01.039

00:32:02.039 --> 00:32:06.680
we<00:32:02.480><c> fail</c><00:32:02.920><c> to</c><00:32:03.259><c> use</c><00:32:04.160><c> the</c><00:32:04.700><c> wit</c><00:32:04.859><c> that</c><00:32:05.099><c> God</c><00:32:05.259><c> has</c><00:32:05.480><c> given</c><00:32:05.619><c> us.</c>

00:32:07.640 --> 00:32:08.359
What<00:32:07.819><c> do</c><00:32:07.920><c> you</c><00:32:07.980><c> think</c><00:32:08.099><c> happened</c>

00:32:08.359 --> 00:32:09.859
when<00:32:08.519><c> Moses</c><00:32:08.839><c> comes</c><00:32:09.099><c> down</c><00:32:09.319><c> the</c><00:32:09.440><c> mountain</c>

00:32:09.859 --> 00:32:11.319
and<00:32:10.420><c> he</c><00:32:10.519><c> meets</c><00:32:10.680><c> Jethro,</c>

00:32:11.539 --> 00:32:14.039
I<00:32:11.779><c> suppose</c><00:32:12.019><c> he</c><00:32:12.160><c> brought</c><00:32:12.339><c> him</c><00:32:12.480><c> his</c><00:32:12.619><c> sheep</c><00:32:12.759><c> back,</c>

00:32:14.819 --> 00:32:18.299
and<00:32:15.220><c> he</c><00:32:15.359><c> says</c><00:32:15.559><c> to</c><00:32:15.740><c> Jethro,</c><00:32:16.599><c> I</c><00:32:16.859><c> have</c><00:32:17.059><c> to</c><00:32:17.259><c> leave.</c>

00:32:19.400 --> 00:32:21.460
Well,<00:32:20.380><c> that's</c><00:32:20.640><c> strange.</c>

00:32:22.660 --> 00:32:23.579
Where<00:32:23.059><c> are</c><00:32:23.240><c> you</c><00:32:23.380><c> going?</c>

00:32:23.720 --> 00:32:25.400
No,<00:32:23.859><c> I</c><00:32:23.880><c> have</c><00:32:24.039><c> to</c><00:32:24.079><c> go</c><00:32:24.220><c> back</c><00:32:24.380><c> into</c><00:32:24.599><c> Egypt</c>

00:32:25.720 --> 00:32:28.099
to<00:32:26.119><c> bring</c><00:32:26.440><c> out</c><00:32:26.680><c> God's</c><00:32:27.079><c> people.</c>

00:32:29.839 --> 00:32:32.319
Odd<00:32:30.000><c> thing,</c><00:32:30.819><c> if</c><00:32:31.480><c> I</c><00:32:31.700><c> remember</c><00:32:32.019><c> rightly,</c>

00:32:32.359 --> 00:32:34.299
when<00:32:32.500><c> you</c><00:32:32.619><c> were</c><00:32:32.819><c> forty</c><00:32:33.019><c> you</c><00:32:33.140><c> ran</c><00:32:33.380><c> away.</c>

00:32:34.740 --> 00:32:36.500
You<00:32:34.900><c> were</c><00:32:35.059><c> in</c><00:32:35.140><c> the</c><00:32:35.299><c> prime</c><00:32:35.440><c> of</c><00:32:35.640><c> your</c><00:32:35.819><c> strength</c><00:32:36.059><c> then.</c>

00:32:36.759 --> 00:32:37.980
And<00:32:36.900><c> now</c><00:32:36.980><c> you're</c><00:32:37.160><c> an</c><00:32:37.240><c> old</c><00:32:37.440><c> man,</c><00:32:37.720><c> you're</c><00:32:37.779><c> eighty,</c>

00:32:38.079 --> 00:32:39.859
you're<00:32:38.220><c> going</c><00:32:38.319><c> back</c><00:32:38.539><c> to</c><00:32:38.660><c> do</c><00:32:38.740><c> it</c><00:32:38.779><c> by</c><00:32:39.000><c> yourself.</c>

00:32:40.279 --> 00:32:40.859
Very<00:32:40.599><c> strange.</c>

00:32:40.859 --> 00:32:44.500
What<00:32:41.700><c> brought</c><00:32:43.480><c> about</c><00:32:43.740><c> this</c><00:32:43.960><c> turn</c><00:32:44.180><c> of</c><00:32:44.319><c> events?</c>

00:32:44.559 --> 00:32:45.619
Well,<00:32:44.839><c> says</c><00:32:45.039><c> Moses,</c><00:32:45.500><c> you</c><00:32:45.500><c> see,</c>

00:32:45.900 --> 00:32:48.039
when<00:32:45.960><c> I</c><00:32:46.079><c> was</c><00:32:46.140><c> on</c><00:32:46.960><c> the</c><00:32:47.119><c> mountain,</c>

00:32:48.799 --> 00:32:49.559
when<00:32:48.940><c> I</c><00:32:49.079><c> was</c><00:32:49.099><c> on</c><00:32:49.240><c> the</c><00:32:49.339><c> mountain</c>

00:32:49.559 --> 00:32:52.059
I<00:32:49.680><c> saw</c><00:32:49.880><c> a</c><00:32:50.039><c> bush</c><00:32:50.180><c> that</c><00:32:50.380><c> was</c><00:32:50.539><c> burning.</c>

00:32:52.160 --> 00:32:55.579
That<00:32:52.160><c> happens</c><00:32:54.599><c> all</c><00:32:54.980><c> the</c><00:32:55.160><c> time.</c>

00:32:55.920 --> 00:32:57.660
Yes,<00:32:56.059><c> but</c><00:32:56.140><c> this</c><00:32:56.339><c> one</c><00:32:56.480><c> didn't</c><00:32:56.740><c> burn</c><00:32:56.980><c> out.</c>

00:32:58.099 --> 00:33:00.680
You<00:32:58.259><c> see,</c><00:32:58.660><c> it</c><00:32:58.859><c> kept</c><00:32:59.140><c> going.</c>

00:33:02.920 --> 00:33:04.480
And<00:33:03.359><c> out</c><00:33:03.799><c> of</c><00:33:04.019><c> the</c><00:33:04.180><c> midst,</c>

00:33:06.960 --> 00:33:08.720
came<00:33:07.579><c> a</c><00:33:07.740><c> voice.</c>

00:33:09.579 --> 00:33:11.519
And<00:33:09.980><c> the</c><00:33:10.259><c> voice</c><00:33:10.559><c> said,</c>

00:33:12.200 --> 00:33:13.940
Come<00:33:12.599><c> here,</c><00:33:13.140><c> Moses,</c>

and<00:33:14.559><c> stand</c><00:33:14.799><c> still</c><00:33:15.039><c> and</c><00:33:15.319><c> take</c><00:33:15.640><c> your</c><00:33:15.799><c> shoes</c><00:33:16.059><c> off,</c>

00:33:16.779 --> 00:33:18.000
because<00:33:16.900><c> the</c><00:33:17.099><c> place</c><00:33:17.339><c> where</c><00:33:17.500><c> you're</c><00:33:17.680><c> standing</c>

00:33:19.119 --> 00:33:20.380
Hope<00:33:19.240><c> you</c><00:33:19.339><c> didn't</c><00:33:19.579><c> do</c><00:33:19.740><c> it,</c><00:33:19.900><c> said</c><00:33:20.079><c> Jethro.</c>

00:33:20.420 --> 00:33:21.140
It's<00:33:20.519><c> very</c><00:33:20.759><c> dangerous.</c>

00:33:21.240 --> 00:33:22.240
There<00:33:21.380><c> are</c><00:33:21.460><c> snakes</c><00:33:21.720><c> around</c><00:33:22.039><c> there.</c>

00:33:22.500 --> 00:33:24.140
I<00:33:22.640><c> did</c><00:33:22.759><c> it,</c><00:33:22.960><c> said</c><00:33:23.079><c> Moses.</c>

00:33:24.700 --> 00:33:25.900
And<00:33:24.940><c> then</c><00:33:25.099><c> the</c><00:33:25.220><c> voice</c><00:33:25.400><c> said</c><00:33:25.619><c> to</c><00:33:25.700><c> me,</c>

00:33:26.119 --> 00:33:27.420
Cast<00:33:26.480><c> your</c><00:33:26.700><c> rod</c><00:33:26.839><c> on</c><00:33:27.059><c> the</c><00:33:27.220><c> ground.</c>

00:33:27.720 --> 00:33:28.359
And<00:33:27.859><c> I</c><00:33:28.000><c> did.</c>

00:33:28.579 --> 00:33:30.240
And<00:33:28.740><c> it</c><00:33:28.839><c> became</c><00:33:29.099><c> a</c><00:33:29.339><c> serpent.</c>

00:33:31.119 --> 00:33:32.559
And<00:33:31.519><c> then</c><00:33:31.920><c> I</c><00:33:32.039><c> took</c><00:33:32.140><c> it</c><00:33:32.259><c> up</c><00:33:32.400><c> again.</c>

00:33:32.700 --> 00:33:34.160
It<00:33:32.859><c> became</c><00:33:33.420><c> a</c><00:33:33.539><c> rod</c><00:33:33.759><c> again.</c>

00:33:34.359 --> 00:33:35.539
And<00:33:34.500><c> then</c><00:33:34.559><c> I</c><00:33:34.640><c> put</c><00:33:34.740><c> my</c><00:33:34.880><c> hand</c><00:33:35.019><c> into</c><00:33:35.180><c> my</c><00:33:35.359><c> bosom</c>

00:33:35.539 --> 00:33:37.359
and<00:33:35.640><c> took</c><00:33:35.779><c> it</c><00:33:35.940><c> out</c><00:33:36.059><c> and</c><00:33:36.140><c> it</c><00:33:36.200><c> was</c><00:33:36.359><c> leprous.</c>

00:33:37.480 --> 00:33:38.900
Then<00:33:37.920><c> I</c><00:33:38.319><c> put</c><00:33:38.460><c> it</c><00:33:38.559><c> back</c><00:33:38.759><c> in</c>

00:33:38.900 --> 00:33:40.859
and<00:33:39.000><c> the</c><00:33:39.119><c> leprous</c><00:33:39.339><c> was</c><00:33:39.519><c> taken</c><00:33:39.859><c> away.</c>

00:33:41.480 --> 00:33:42.400
And<00:33:41.519><c> then</c><00:33:41.700><c> this</c><00:33:41.880><c> voice</c><00:33:42.039><c> said</c><00:33:42.240><c> to</c><00:33:42.319><c> me,</c>

00:33:42.420 --> 00:33:44.279
I<00:33:42.440><c> want</c><00:33:42.619><c> you</c><00:33:42.759><c> to</c><00:33:42.859><c> go</c><00:33:43.019><c> down</c><00:33:43.240><c> to</c><00:33:43.960><c> Egypt</c>

We'll<00:33:46.799><c> bring</c><00:33:46.980><c> them</c><00:33:47.140><c> out.</c>

You'll<00:33:48.220><c> do</c><00:33:48.359><c> it</c><00:33:48.700><c> through</c><00:33:48.960><c> my</c><00:33:49.279><c> power</c>

I<00:33:59.900><c> see</c><00:34:00.599><c> Jethro</c><00:34:01.059><c> saying</c><00:34:01.279><c> to</c><00:34:01.720><c> him,</c>

00:34:01.799 --> 00:34:05.019
tell<00:34:02.059><c> me,</c><00:34:03.140><c> were</c><00:34:04.539><c> you</c><00:34:04.759><c> sending</c>

00:34:23.480 --> 00:34:25.619
that's<00:34:23.780><c> the</c><00:34:23.940><c> origin</c><00:34:24.239><c> of</c><00:34:24.440><c> the</c><00:34:24.460><c> word</c><00:34:24.659><c> grass.</c>

And<00:34:27.760><c> people</c><00:34:28.079><c> smoke</c><00:34:28.400><c> it</c><00:34:28.579><c> and</c><00:34:28.619><c> they're</c><00:34:28.840><c> on</c><00:34:28.980><c> a</c><00:34:29.099><c> high.</c>

00:34:29.659 --> 00:34:30.840
They<00:34:29.840><c> can</c><00:34:30.039><c> fly</c><00:34:30.239><c> off</c><00:34:30.420><c> buildings</c>

00:34:30.840 --> 00:34:32.000

00:34:36.780 --> 00:34:38.260
You're<00:34:36.980><c> hallucinating.</c>

The<00:34:52.360><c> way</c><00:34:52.579><c> we</c><00:34:52.840><c> read</c><00:34:53.079><c> it,</c>

00:36:03.760 --> 00:36:05.539

00:36:12.519 --> 00:36:14.260
Yes,<00:36:12.840><c> it's</c><00:36:13.199><c> embarrassing.</c>

00:39:08.019 --> 00:39:10.420
When<00:39:08.019><c> Jethro,</c><00:39:08.579><c> the</c><00:39:08.739><c> priest</c><00:39:09.000><c> of</c><00:39:09.139><c> Midian,</c><00:39:09.440><c> Moses'</c><00:39:09.840><c> father</c><00:39:10.119><c>-in</c><00:39:10.300><c>-law,</c>

00:39:10.760 --> 00:39:12.440

00:39:12.440 --> 00:39:14.320
and<00:39:12.900><c> for</c><00:39:13.159><c> Israel</c><00:39:13.659><c> his</c><00:39:13.920><c> people</c>

00:39:14.320 --> 00:39:16.599
and<00:39:14.599><c> that</c><00:39:14.800><c> the</c><00:39:14.940><c> Lord</c><00:39:15.139><c> had</c><00:39:15.380><c> brought</c><00:39:15.559><c> Israel</c><00:39:15.980><c> out</c><00:39:16.219><c> of</c><00:39:16.360><c> Egypt,</c>

00:39:16.639 --> 00:39:19.440
then<00:39:17.039><c> Jethro,</c><00:39:17.619><c> Moses'</c><00:39:18.079><c> father</c><00:39:18.380><c>-in</c><00:39:18.639><c>-law,</c>

00:39:19.820 --> 00:39:22.139
took<00:39:20.059><c> Zipporah,</c><00:39:20.639><c> Moses'</c><00:39:21.139><c> wife,</c>

00:39:22.619 --> 00:39:25.360
after<00:39:23.099><c> he</c><00:39:23.500><c> had</c><00:39:23.840><c> sent</c><00:39:24.059><c> her</c><00:39:24.400><c> back.</c>

00:39:26.559 --> 00:39:28.840
So<00:39:27.079><c> this</c><00:39:27.320><c> is</c><00:39:27.440><c> what</c><00:39:27.619><c> happened.</c>

00:39:29.860 --> 00:39:33.280
Moses,<00:39:30.840><c> Zipporah,</c><00:39:31.519><c> Gershom,</c><00:39:32.099><c> Eliezer,</c>

00:39:33.320 --> 00:39:37.460

00:39:38.820 --> 00:39:41.300
There<00:39:39.159><c> they</c><00:39:39.320><c> are</c><00:39:39.599><c> interrupted</c><00:39:39.960><c> by</c><00:39:40.199><c> the</c><00:39:40.420><c> angel.</c>

00:39:41.340 --> 00:39:43.840
And<00:39:41.480><c> while</c><00:39:41.679><c> Moses</c><00:39:42.019><c> holds</c><00:39:42.340><c> the</c><00:39:42.579><c> angel</c><00:39:42.880><c> off,</c>

00:39:44.119 --> 00:39:46.400
Zipporah<00:39:44.599><c> circumcises</c><00:39:45.380><c> the</c><00:39:45.579><c> boys.</c>

00:39:47.099 --> 00:39:49.139
She<00:39:47.380><c> declares,</c><00:39:47.980><c> there</c><00:39:47.980><c> is</c><00:39:48.139><c> a</c><00:39:48.260><c> husband</c><00:39:48.480><c> of</c><00:39:48.780><c> blood</c>

00:39:49.139 --> 00:39:51.500
and<00:39:49.599><c> you're</c><00:39:50.139><c> an</c><00:39:50.320><c> abomination.</c>

00:39:52.159 --> 00:39:56.920
And<00:39:52.420><c> if</c><00:39:52.659><c> this</c><00:39:52.920><c> is</c><00:39:53.360><c> a</c><00:39:53.679><c> sample</c><00:39:54.199><c> of</c><00:39:54.780><c> the</c><00:39:55.059><c> God</c><00:39:55.360><c> and</c><00:39:55.880><c> His</c><00:39:56.119><c> demands,</c>

00:39:56.920 --> 00:40:00.440
whom<00:39:57.860><c> I</c><00:39:58.119><c> expected</c><00:39:58.559><c> to</c><00:39:58.820><c> embrace</c><00:39:59.239><c> and</c><00:39:59.480><c> worship,</c>

00:40:01.000 --> 00:40:03.579
you'd<00:40:01.340><c> better</c><00:40:01.340><c> go</c><00:40:01.559><c> down</c><00:40:01.760><c> to</c><00:40:01.920><c> Egypt</c><00:40:02.159><c> by</c><00:40:02.440><c> yourself.</c>

00:40:04.480 --> 00:40:05.880
So<00:40:04.780><c> he</c><00:40:04.880><c> does.</c>

00:40:06.320 --> 00:40:08.539
And<00:40:06.440><c> he</c><00:40:06.599><c> sends</c><00:40:06.780><c> them</c><00:40:06.980><c> back.</c>

00:40:10.099 --> 00:40:12.460
18<00:40:10.460><c> verse</c><00:40:10.719><c> 2</c><00:40:10.900><c> tells</c><00:40:11.159><c> us</c><00:40:11.420><c> he</c><00:40:11.599><c> sends</c><00:40:11.900><c> them</c><00:40:12.139><c> back.</c>

00:40:12.659 --> 00:40:15.780
They<00:40:12.820><c> go</c><00:40:13.059><c> back</c><00:40:13.360><c> to</c><00:40:14.760><c> Jethro.</c>

00:40:16.159 --> 00:40:17.840
And<00:40:16.300><c> there</c><00:40:16.519><c> they</c><00:40:16.699><c> live</c><00:40:16.900><c> and</c><00:40:17.179><c> settle</c><00:40:17.380><c> down,</c>

00:40:17.880 --> 00:40:19.400
thinking<00:40:18.179><c> they've</c><00:40:18.480><c> seen</c><00:40:18.639><c> the</c><00:40:18.800><c> last</c><00:40:18.940><c> of</c><00:40:19.119><c> Moses.</c>

00:40:19.679 --> 00:40:22.199
And<00:40:19.860><c> Moses</c><00:40:20.119><c> goes</c><00:40:20.400><c> into</c><00:40:20.659><c> Egypt</c><00:40:21.099><c> totally</c><00:40:21.639><c> convinced</c>

00:40:22.199 --> 00:40:24.079
that<00:40:22.380><c> he's</c><00:40:22.579><c> seen</c><00:40:22.739><c> the</c><00:40:22.920><c> last</c><00:40:23.039><c> of</c><00:40:23.179><c> his</c><00:40:23.300><c> wife</c><00:40:23.460><c> and</c><00:40:23.599><c> his</c><00:40:23.739><c> two</c><00:40:23.860><c> boys,</c>

00:40:24.300 --> 00:40:26.579
which<00:40:24.579><c> is</c><00:40:24.780><c> why</c><00:40:24.980><c> he</c><00:40:25.159><c> doesn't</c><00:40:25.480><c> say</c><00:40:25.699><c> to</c><00:40:25.940><c> Aaron</c><00:40:26.119><c> and</c><00:40:26.320><c> Miriam</c>

00:40:26.579 --> 00:40:29.420
when<00:40:26.739><c> he</c><00:40:26.840><c> gets</c><00:40:27.079><c> to</c><00:40:27.280><c> Egypt,</c><00:40:27.920><c> oh,</c><00:40:27.980><c> by</c><00:40:28.159><c> the</c><00:40:28.280><c> way,</c><00:40:28.420><c> I'm</c><00:40:28.559><c> married.</c>

00:40:30.300 --> 00:40:32.500
So<00:40:30.599><c> it</c><00:40:30.739><c> came</c><00:40:30.960><c> as</c><00:40:31.139><c> a</c><00:40:31.320><c> mighty</c><00:40:31.619><c> big</c><00:40:31.900><c> surprise</c>

00:40:32.500 --> 00:40:34.380
when<00:40:32.920><c> at</c><00:40:33.119><c> the</c><00:40:33.300><c> base</c><00:40:33.519><c> of</c><00:40:33.760><c> the</c><00:40:33.880><c> mountain</c>

00:40:34.380 --> 00:40:36.980
Jethro<00:40:35.119><c> turns</c><00:40:35.500><c> up</c><00:40:35.699><c> with</c><00:40:35.840><c> his</c><00:40:36.059><c> wife.</c>

00:40:39.059 --> 00:40:41.699
You<00:40:39.219><c> know,</c><00:40:39.300><c> he</c><00:40:39.420><c> has</c><00:40:39.559><c> some</c><00:40:39.739><c> very</c><00:40:39.980><c> fast</c><00:40:40.199><c> talking</c><00:40:40.599><c> to</c><00:40:40.840><c> do.</c>

00:40:42.000 --> 00:40:44.340
They<00:40:42.300><c> chided</c><00:40:42.719><c> with</c><00:40:42.940><c> him</c><00:40:43.059><c> because</c><00:40:43.380><c> of</c><00:40:43.860><c> the</c><00:40:44.059><c> woman,</c>

00:40:44.539 --> 00:40:46.599
the<00:40:44.739><c> Ethiopian,</c><00:40:45.480><c> the</c><00:40:45.579><c> woman</c><00:40:45.780><c> from</c><00:40:45.960><c> the</c><00:40:46.119><c> black</c><00:40:46.340><c> tent,</c>

00:40:46.880 --> 00:40:48.179
whom<00:40:46.980><c> he</c><00:40:47.099><c> had</c><00:40:47.320><c> married.</c>

00:40:48.199 --> 00:40:49.659
He<00:40:48.360><c> hadn't</c><00:40:48.639><c> just</c><00:40:48.980><c> married</c><00:40:49.260><c> her.</c>

00:40:49.940 --> 00:40:51.400
He'd<00:40:50.179><c> been</c><00:40:50.420><c> married</c><00:40:50.760><c> years</c><00:40:51.059><c> before,</c>

00:40:51.420 --> 00:40:53.960
but<00:40:51.579><c> they'd</c><00:40:51.760><c> only</c><00:40:51.900><c> just</c><00:40:52.159><c> found</c><00:40:52.360><c> out</c><00:40:52.579><c> that</c><00:40:52.719><c> he</c><00:40:52.800><c> was</c><00:40:53.000><c> married.</c>

00:40:55.820 --> 00:40:56.980
And<00:40:56.260><c> he</c><00:40:56.380><c> has</c><00:40:56.519><c> some</c><00:40:56.659><c> very</c><00:40:56.860><c> fast...</c>

00:40:56.980 --> 00:40:58.460
Oh,<00:40:57.260><c> by</c><00:40:57.440><c> the</c><00:40:57.539><c> way,</c><00:40:57.659><c> I</c><00:40:57.659><c> didn't</c><00:40:57.900><c> tell</c><00:40:58.079><c> you.</c>

00:40:58.840 --> 00:41:00.920
When<00:40:59.000><c> I</c><00:40:59.099><c> was</c><00:40:59.219><c> in</c><00:40:59.340><c> Midian</c><00:40:59.559><c> I</c><00:40:59.880><c> got</c><00:41:00.119><c> married</c>

00:41:01.000 --> 00:41:04.219
and<00:41:01.440><c> this</c><00:41:01.780><c> is</c><00:41:02.860><c> my</c><00:41:03.039><c> wife,</c><00:41:03.519><c> Zipporah.</c>

00:41:04.380 --> 00:41:05.760
So<00:41:04.539><c> I'll</c><00:41:04.599><c> tell</c><00:41:04.719><c> you</c><00:41:04.820><c> something,</c><00:41:05.340><c> sisters,</c>

00:41:05.940 --> 00:41:07.679
you'll<00:41:05.980><c> never</c><00:41:06.179><c> hear</c><00:41:06.440><c> her</c><00:41:06.579><c> name</c><00:41:06.699><c> again.</c>

00:41:10.699 --> 00:41:12.639
Yes,<00:41:10.860><c> she</c><00:41:11.000><c> may</c><00:41:11.179><c> have</c><00:41:11.300><c> been</c><00:41:11.400><c> his</c><00:41:11.599><c> wife.</c>

00:41:12.960 --> 00:41:16.239
We<00:41:13.400><c> never</c><00:41:13.619><c> read</c><00:41:14.000><c> of</c><00:41:14.500><c> any</c><00:41:14.780><c> assistance</c><00:41:15.400><c> that</c><00:41:15.599><c> she</c><00:41:15.760><c> gave</c><00:41:15.960><c> Moses,</c>

00:41:16.739 --> 00:41:18.920
never<00:41:17.000><c> any</c><00:41:17.400><c> encouragement</c><00:41:17.960><c> that</c><00:41:18.159><c> she</c><00:41:18.340><c> gave</c><00:41:18.519><c> Moses.</c>

00:41:19.239 --> 00:41:23.099
That's<00:41:19.679><c> what</c><00:41:19.840><c> wives</c><00:41:20.059><c> are</c><00:41:20.320><c> for,</c><00:41:21.519><c> aren't</c><00:41:21.619><c> they,</c><00:41:22.099><c> brethren?</c>

00:41:25.739 --> 00:41:28.500
Never<00:41:26.480><c> hear</c><00:41:27.219><c> her</c><00:41:27.440><c> again.</c>

00:41:30.059 --> 00:41:30.960
But<00:41:30.139><c> that</c><00:41:30.320><c> was</c><00:41:30.519><c> an</c><00:41:30.619><c> aside.</c>

00:41:31.219 --> 00:41:32.880
We've<00:41:31.460><c> moved</c><00:41:31.659><c> on</c><00:41:31.920><c> a</c><00:41:32.179><c> little.</c>

00:41:33.280 --> 00:41:35.820
Moses<00:41:33.539><c> then</c><00:41:34.480><c> presents</c><00:41:34.860><c> himself</c><00:41:35.239><c> to</c><00:41:35.559><c> Pharaoh</c>

00:41:35.820 --> 00:41:40.059
and<00:41:36.579><c> the</c><00:41:36.820><c> sequence</c><00:41:37.219><c> of</c><00:41:37.559><c> the</c><00:41:37.739><c> plagues</c><00:41:38.360><c> sets</c><00:41:38.840><c> in.</c>

00:41:40.079 --> 00:41:43.320
These<00:41:40.820><c> hammer</c><00:41:41.159><c> blows</c><00:41:41.440><c> against</c><00:41:42.199><c> Egypt.</c>

00:41:44.360 --> 00:41:45.099
Here's<00:41:44.539><c> a</c><00:41:44.659><c> question.</c>

00:41:45.480 --> 00:41:50.860
Why<00:41:46.000><c> do</c><00:41:47.099><c> you</c><00:41:47.179><c> think</c><00:41:47.440><c> God</c><00:41:47.940><c> should</c><00:41:48.559><c> supplicate</c><00:41:49.639><c> a</c><00:41:49.840><c> man?</c>

00:41:52.039 --> 00:41:58.039
Why<00:41:52.800><c> all</c><00:41:53.219><c> these</c><00:41:56.320><c> plagues?</c>

00:41:58.940 --> 00:42:02.579
Why<00:41:59.300><c> not</c><00:41:59.739><c> just</c><00:42:00.400><c> smite</c><00:42:00.679><c> the</c><00:42:00.900><c> Egyptian</c><00:42:01.280><c> army</c><00:42:01.559><c> with</c><00:42:02.039><c> blindness</c>

00:42:02.579 --> 00:42:03.940
or<00:42:03.199><c> paralysis</c>

00:42:03.940 --> 00:42:06.960
and<00:42:04.820><c> then</c><00:42:05.039><c> while</c><00:42:05.199><c> they're</c><00:42:05.480><c> in</c><00:42:05.579><c> their</c><00:42:05.880><c> paralytic</c><00:42:06.539><c> state</c>

00:42:06.960 --> 00:42:09.619
Moses<00:42:07.460><c> leads</c><00:42:07.800><c> the</c><00:42:08.019><c> people</c><00:42:08.179><c> out?</c>

00:42:10.679 --> 00:42:12.199
This<00:42:10.980><c> is</c><00:42:11.199><c> the</c><00:42:11.320><c> answer.</c>

00:42:12.579 --> 00:42:15.480
God<00:42:12.860><c> doesn't</c><00:42:13.159><c> work</c><00:42:13.500><c> like</c><00:42:13.820><c> this.</c>

00:42:18.780 --> 00:42:20.659
Note<00:42:19.300><c> the</c><00:42:19.500><c> care,</c><00:42:19.880><c> brethren</c><00:42:20.139><c> and</c><00:42:20.380><c> sisters,</c>

00:42:20.739 --> 00:42:23.099
with<00:42:20.980><c> which</c><00:42:21.539><c> the</c><00:42:22.019><c> people</c><00:42:22.260><c> are</c><00:42:22.539><c> prepared.</c>

Exodus<00:42:23.780><c> chapter</c><00:42:24.139><c> 5.</c>

00:42:25.780 --> 00:42:28.340
And<00:42:25.820><c> afterward</c><00:42:26.219><c> Moses</c><00:42:26.659><c> and</c><00:42:27.019><c> Aaron</c><00:42:27.199><c> went</c><00:42:27.460><c> in</c><00:42:27.719><c> and</c><00:42:27.900><c> told</c><00:42:28.119><c> Pharaoh,</c>

00:42:28.679 --> 00:42:30.400
Thus<00:42:28.679><c> saith</c><00:42:28.980><c> the</c><00:42:29.199><c> Lord</c><00:42:29.519><c> God</c><00:42:29.760><c> of</c><00:42:29.920><c> Israel,</c>

00:42:30.860 --> 00:42:33.960
Let<00:42:31.059><c> my</c><00:42:31.360><c> people</c><00:42:31.619><c> go,</c><00:42:31.920><c> that</c><00:42:32.059><c> we</c><00:42:32.260><c> may</c><00:42:32.420><c> hold</c><00:42:32.679><c> a</c><00:42:32.880><c> feast</c><00:42:33.139><c> in</c><00:42:33.500><c> the</c><00:42:33.619><c> wilderness.</c>

00:42:34.260 --> 00:42:36.099
And<00:42:34.519><c> Pharaoh</c><00:42:34.719><c> said,</c><00:42:34.960><c> Who</c><00:42:35.199><c> is</c><00:42:35.599><c> the</c><00:42:35.820><c> Lord</c>

00:42:38.639 --> 00:42:42.219
I<00:42:38.920><c> know</c><00:42:39.159><c> not</c><00:42:39.440><c> the</c><00:42:39.639><c> Lord,</c><00:42:40.380><c> neither</c><00:42:40.619><c> will</c><00:42:40.860><c> I</c><00:42:40.960><c> let</c><00:42:41.179><c> Israel</c><00:42:41.739><c> go.</c>

Verse<00:42:42.699><c> 5.</c>

00:42:43.960 --> 00:42:44.960
Pharaoh<00:42:44.300><c> said,</c><00:42:44.639><c> Behold</c><00:42:44.960><c> the</c><00:42:44.960><c> people</c><00:42:44.960><c> of</c><00:42:44.960><c> Israel,</c>

00:42:48.860 --> 00:42:51.559
And<00:42:48.940><c> Pharaoh</c><00:42:49.099><c> commanded</c><00:42:49.659><c> the</c><00:42:49.900><c> same</c><00:42:50.000><c> day</c><00:42:50.320><c> the</c><00:42:50.679><c> taskmasters</c><00:42:51.340><c> of</c>

You<00:42:53.280><c> shall</c><00:42:53.460><c> no</c><00:42:53.639><c> more</c><00:42:53.739><c> give</c><00:42:53.880><c> the</c><00:42:54.059><c> people</c><00:42:54.280><c> straw.</c>

We've<00:42:54.980><c> been</c><00:42:55.159><c> down</c><00:42:55.360><c> that</c><00:42:55.579><c> road.</c>

00:42:58.219 --> 00:43:00.539
If<00:42:58.659><c> you</c><00:42:59.099><c> had</c><00:42:59.280><c> all</c><00:42:59.579><c> sorts</c><00:42:59.840><c> of</c><00:43:00.159><c> power</c>

How<00:43:10.619><c> would</c><00:43:10.780><c> you</c><00:43:10.900><c> make</c><00:43:11.019><c> them</c><00:43:11.260><c> fit</c><00:43:11.500><c> for</c><00:43:11.719><c> the</c><00:43:11.880><c> journey?</c>
