00:39:25.260 --> 00:39:26.780
I<00:39:25.860><c> feel</c>

00:39:26.840 --> 00:39:29.239
because<00:39:27.360><c> of</c><00:39:27.619><c> course</c><00:39:27.820><c> there</c><00:39:28.019><c> would</c><00:39:28.239><c> be</c><00:39:28.559><c> confirmation</c>

00:39:31.599 --> 00:39:34.360
now<00:39:32.460><c> I</c><00:39:33.079><c> think</c><00:39:33.360><c> that</c><00:39:33.519><c> he</c><00:39:33.719><c> continued</c><00:39:34.119><c> on</c>

00:39:48.699 --> 00:39:50.179
now<00:39:48.960><c> you</c><00:39:49.219><c> remember</c>

00:39:50.739 --> 00:39:53.000
how<00:39:51.280><c> that</c><00:39:51.800><c> Hezekiah</c>

00:39:53.000 --> 00:39:54.920
