00:00:20.079 --> 00:00:22.140
Hopefully<00:00:20.339><c> we'll</c><00:00:20.519><c> be</c><00:00:20.660><c> able</c><00:00:20.739><c> to</c><00:00:20.859><c> slow</c><00:00:21.039><c> down</c><00:00:21.219><c> a</c><00:00:21.399><c> little</c><00:00:21.420><c> later.</c>

00:00:22.160 --> 00:00:23.980
This<00:00:22.399><c> is</c><00:00:22.559><c> where</c><00:00:22.640><c> we</c><00:00:22.820><c> finished</c><00:00:23.039><c> off</c><00:00:23.320><c> yesterday.</c>

00:00:24.280 --> 00:00:27.800
We<00:00:24.460><c> were</c><00:00:24.640><c> talking</c><00:00:24.899><c> about</c><00:00:25.539><c> the</c><00:00:25.960><c> diminishing</c><00:00:26.500><c> threats</c><00:00:26.980><c> to</c><00:00:27.600><c> the</c>

00:00:27.800 --> 00:00:29.980
nation<00:00:28.059><c> of</c><00:00:28.260><c> Israel</c><00:00:28.719><c> and</c><00:00:29.140><c> how</c><00:00:29.339><c> that</c><00:00:29.559><c> is</c><00:00:29.859><c> a</c>

00:00:29.980 --> 00:00:33.320
continuing<00:00:30.420><c> fulfillment</c><00:00:31.179><c> of</c><00:00:31.719><c> the</c><00:00:31.960><c> drying</c><00:00:32.240><c> up</c><00:00:32.539><c> of</c><00:00:32.740><c> the</c><00:00:32.960><c> powers</c>

of<00:00:33.719><c> the</c><00:00:33.880><c> Euphrates.</c>

00:00:36.600 --> 00:00:39.079
Brother<00:00:36.759><c> Kurt</c><00:00:37.039><c> Ruhlen</c><00:00:37.280><c> just</c><00:00:37.719><c> noticed</c><00:00:37.939><c> something</c><00:00:38.200><c> very</c><00:00:38.479><c> interesting</c><00:00:38.799><c> about</c>

00:00:39.079 --> 00:00:42.640
this<00:00:40.979><c> satellite</c><00:00:41.520><c> picture.</c>

00:00:43.719 --> 00:00:46.539
And<00:00:43.859><c> that's</c><00:00:44.039><c> why</c><00:00:44.200><c> they</c><00:00:44.479><c> call</c><00:00:44.960><c> that</c><00:00:45.439><c> line</c><00:00:45.759><c> between</c><00:00:46.100><c> the</c><00:00:46.280><c> West</c>

00:00:46.539 --> 00:00:49.560
Bank<00:00:46.820><c> and</c><00:00:47.219><c> Israel</c><00:00:47.560><c> the</c><00:00:47.840><c> green</c><00:00:48.079><c> line,</c><00:00:49.039><c> because</c>

00:00:49.560 --> 00:00:50.640
there's<00:00:49.899><c> a</c><00:00:50.060><c> green</c><00:00:50.219><c> line.</c>

00:00:50.840 --> 00:00:54.399
And<00:00:51.020><c> it's</c><00:00:51.240><c> where</c><00:00:51.740><c> Israel</c><00:00:52.359><c> has</c><00:00:52.960><c> full</c><00:00:53.219><c> control</c><00:00:53.640><c> over</c><00:00:53.899><c> the</c><00:00:54.079><c> land,</c>

00:00:54.740 --> 00:00:56.079
and<00:00:54.920><c> you</c><00:00:55.000><c> can</c><00:00:55.240><c> see</c><00:00:55.399><c> where</c><00:00:55.619><c> they</c><00:00:55.859><c> have</c>

00:00:56.079 --> 00:00:58.659
developed<00:00:56.500><c> it,</c><00:00:57.380><c> agriculture.</c>

00:00:58.539 --> 00:01:02.359
But<00:00:58.820><c> as</c><00:00:59.560><c> soon</c><00:00:59.700><c> as</c><00:00:59.799><c> you</c><00:00:59.899><c> go</c><00:01:00.100><c> over</c><00:01:00.340><c> that</c><00:01:00.600><c> line,</c><00:01:00.840><c> it's</c><00:01:01.119><c> immediately</c><00:01:01.899><c> changing</c>

00:01:02.359 --> 00:01:04.659
color,<00:01:03.240><c> because</c><00:01:04.140><c> there</c>

00:01:04.659 --> 00:01:08.019
hasn't<00:01:04.939><c> been</c><00:01:05.159><c> the</c><00:01:05.319><c> same</c><00:01:05.599><c> care</c><00:01:06.019><c> to</c><00:01:06.659><c> develop</c><00:01:07.040><c> the</c><00:01:07.280><c> land</c><00:01:07.500><c> on</c><00:01:07.819><c> the</c>

00:01:08.019 --> 00:01:09.359
other<00:01:08.280><c> side</c><00:01:08.700><c> of</c><00:01:08.980><c> that</c><00:01:09.159><c> line.</c>

00:01:09.400 --> 00:01:11.760
So<00:01:09.500><c> it's</c><00:01:09.599><c> really</c><00:01:09.859><c> quite</c><00:01:10.459><c> interesting.</c>

00:01:13.280 --> 00:01:16.359
Well,<00:01:13.500><c> one</c><00:01:13.659><c> of</c><00:01:13.760><c> the</c><00:01:13.900><c> things</c><00:01:14.019><c> that</c><00:01:14.280><c> we</c><00:01:14.560><c> definitely</c><00:01:15.180><c> do</c><00:01:15.659><c> see</c><00:01:16.019><c> in</c>

00:01:16.359 --> 00:01:18.739
Ezekiel<00:01:16.719><c> 38,</c><00:01:17.120><c> there's</c><00:01:17.459><c> peace</c><00:01:17.939><c> and</c><00:01:18.439><c> there's</c>

00:01:18.739 --> 00:01:19.260
prosperity.

00:01:19.700 --> 00:01:23.159
And<00:01:19.900><c> we</c><00:01:19.980><c> definitely</c><00:01:20.359><c> see</c><00:01:20.739><c> Israel</c><00:01:21.159><c> becoming</c><00:01:21.540><c> quite</c><00:01:22.099><c> a</c><00:01:22.379><c> prosperous</c><00:01:22.700><c> nation,</c>

00:01:23.319 --> 00:01:24.319
and<00:01:23.560><c> I'm</c><00:01:23.700><c> sure</c><00:01:23.959><c> you'll</c><00:01:24.200><c> all</c>

00:01:28.900 --> 00:01:33.920
And<00:01:29.099><c> even</c><00:01:29.260><c> though</c><00:01:29.900><c> the</c><00:01:30.200><c> price</c><00:01:30.439><c> of</c><00:01:30.920><c> oil</c><00:01:31.299><c> has</c><00:01:31.799><c> gone</c><00:01:32.180><c> down,</c><00:01:33.579><c> that</c>

00:01:33.920 --> 00:01:36.980
is<00:01:34.219><c> still</c><00:01:34.579><c> a</c><00:01:34.859><c> massive</c><00:01:35.439><c> benefit</c><00:01:36.040><c> to</c><00:01:36.439><c> Israel</c>

00:01:36.980 --> 00:01:41.640
who<00:01:37.519><c> used</c><00:01:37.879><c> to</c><00:01:38.159><c> have</c><00:01:38.359><c> to</c><00:01:38.599><c> buy</c><00:01:38.879><c> it</c><00:01:39.519><c> from</c><00:01:40.459><c> limited</c><00:01:40.799><c> means,</c><00:01:41.079><c> because</c><00:01:41.319><c> they</c>

00:01:41.640 --> 00:01:42.540
wouldn't<00:01:41.799><c> be</c><00:01:41.939><c> able</c><00:01:42.079><c> to</c><00:01:42.239><c> necessarily</c>

00:01:45.599 --> 00:01:50.420
So<00:01:46.000><c> it's</c><00:01:46.299><c> a</c><00:01:46.459><c> strategic</c><00:01:47.159><c> asset</c><00:01:47.920><c> as</c><00:01:48.640><c> well</c><00:01:48.959><c> as</c><00:01:49.340><c> supplying</c><00:01:49.799><c> their</c>

just<00:02:38.259><c> like</c><00:02:38.479><c> Brother</c><00:02:38.759><c> Thomas</c><00:02:39.060><c> said.</c>

00:02:39.620 --> 00:02:42.259
Sometimes<00:02:40.000><c> people</c><00:02:40.300><c> say,</c><00:02:40.879><c> well,</c><00:02:41.099><c> only</c><00:02:41.439><c> some</c><00:02:41.699><c> of</c><00:02:41.860><c> what</c><00:02:41.979><c> Brother</c>

00:02:42.259 --> 00:02:43.659
Thomas<00:02:42.580><c> said</c><00:02:42.759><c> has</c><00:02:42.939><c> come</c><00:02:43.060><c> to</c><00:02:43.259><c> pass,</c><00:02:43.520><c> and</c>

00:02:43.659 --> 00:02:45.780
that's<00:02:43.919><c> because</c><00:02:44.159><c> Christ</c><00:02:44.419><c> hasn't</c><00:02:44.659><c> returned</c><00:02:45.020><c> yet.</c>

00:02:46.020 --> 00:02:47.919
More<00:02:46.419><c> of</c><00:02:46.560><c> what</c><00:02:46.680><c> he</c><00:02:46.900><c> said</c><00:02:47.099><c> just</c><00:02:47.360><c> keeps</c><00:02:47.620><c> coming.</c>

00:02:47.919 --> 00:02:49.960
You<00:02:48.039><c> know,</c><00:02:48.219><c> usually</c><00:02:48.479><c> with</c><00:02:48.699><c> Brother</c><00:02:48.900><c> Thomas</c><00:02:49.159><c> you</c><00:02:49.319><c> say,</c><00:02:49.560><c> I'm</c><00:02:49.580><c> not</c><00:02:49.780><c> sure</c><00:02:49.879><c> if</c>

00:02:49.960 --> 00:02:50.879
he's<00:02:50.120><c> right</c><00:02:50.300><c> about</c><00:02:50.500><c> that,</c>

00:02:50.960 --> 00:02:53.740
and<00:02:51.159><c> then</c><00:02:51.400><c> down</c><00:02:51.560><c> the</c><00:02:51.699><c> road</c><00:02:51.840><c> you're</c><00:02:52.060><c> like,</c><00:02:52.280><c> yeah,</c><00:02:52.479><c> he</c><00:02:52.539><c> was</c><00:02:52.719><c> right,</c><00:02:53.620><c> you</c>

00:02:53.740 --> 00:02:56.120
know,<00:02:53.939><c> again,</c><00:02:54.780><c> and</c><00:02:55.479><c> he</c><00:02:55.759><c> really</c>

00:02:56.120 --> 00:02:59.120
did<00:02:56.500><c> because</c><00:02:57.039><c> he's</c><00:02:57.520><c> based</c><00:02:57.740><c> on</c><00:02:57.919><c> the</c><00:02:58.120><c> scripture,</c><00:02:58.439><c> his</c><00:02:58.639><c> work's</c>

00:02:59.120 --> 00:03:00.740
based<00:02:59.340><c> on</c><00:02:59.680><c> the</c><00:02:59.900><c> scripture.</c>

00:03:01.460 --> 00:03:04.259
This<00:03:01.900><c> is</c><00:03:02.099><c> a</c><00:03:02.180><c> big</c><00:03:02.319><c> question</c><00:03:02.659><c> that</c><00:03:02.800><c> we</c><00:03:03.000><c> talked</c><00:03:03.180><c> about,</c><00:03:03.699><c> how</c><00:03:04.020><c> will</c>

00:03:04.259 --> 00:03:05.599
there<00:03:04.479><c> be</c><00:03:04.699><c> peace?</c>

00:03:05.780 --> 00:03:11.439
And<00:03:06.159><c> yesterday</c><00:03:06.539><c> we</c><00:03:06.759><c> did</c><00:03:07.000><c> make</c><00:03:07.219><c> a</c><00:03:07.340><c> suggestion</c><00:03:07.699><c> that</c><00:03:07.960><c> this</c><00:03:08.280><c> could</c><00:03:08.919><c> happen</c><00:03:09.319><c> after</c><00:03:09.919><c> Christ</c><00:03:10.280><c> returns</c><00:03:10.900><c> and</c>

00:03:11.439 --> 00:03:14.060
after<00:03:11.740><c> those</c><00:03:12.000><c> teachers</c><00:03:12.439><c> go</c><00:03:12.740><c> to</c><00:03:12.919><c> the</c><00:03:13.020><c> nation</c><00:03:13.259><c> of</c><00:03:13.500><c> Israel,</c><00:03:13.979><c> and</c>

00:03:14.060 --> 00:03:16.719
we<00:03:14.259><c> saw</c><00:03:14.460><c> how</c><00:03:14.659><c> that</c><00:03:14.860><c> in</c><00:03:15.080><c> the</c><00:03:15.300><c> past</c><00:03:15.740><c> under,</c><00:03:16.539><c> when</c>

00:03:16.719 --> 00:03:19.979
Jehoshaphat<00:03:17.340><c> was</c><00:03:17.639><c> king,</c><00:03:18.219><c> that's</c><00:03:18.699><c> exactly</c><00:03:19.180><c> what</c><00:03:19.599><c> happened.</c>

00:03:20.219 --> 00:03:23.300
So<00:03:20.639><c> that's</c><00:03:21.300><c> definitely</c><00:03:21.560><c> a</c><00:03:21.800><c> possibility,</c><00:03:22.560><c> either</c><00:03:22.919><c> that</c><00:03:23.139><c> could</c>

00:03:23.300 --> 00:03:25.879
be<00:03:23.560><c> a</c><00:03:23.740><c> contributing</c><00:03:24.120><c> factor</c><00:03:24.659><c> or</c><00:03:25.400><c> that</c>

00:03:25.879 --> 00:03:28.139
could<00:03:26.139><c> bring</c><00:03:26.460><c> about</c><00:03:26.860><c> that</c><00:03:27.259><c> peace.</c>

00:03:29.240 --> 00:03:32.039
But<00:03:29.639><c> we're</c><00:03:30.259><c> going</c><00:03:30.379><c> to</c><00:03:30.620><c> just</c><00:03:30.919><c> have</c><00:03:31.099><c> a</c><00:03:31.180><c> look</c><00:03:31.280><c> at</c><00:03:31.439><c> the</c><00:03:31.639><c> situation</c>

00:03:32.039 --> 00:03:34.000
around<00:03:32.300><c> Israel</c><00:03:32.800><c> quickly.</c>

00:03:34.060 --> 00:03:36.319
One<00:03:34.219><c> of</c><00:03:34.300><c> the</c><00:03:34.439><c> biggest</c><00:03:34.599><c> problems</c><00:03:34.939><c> Israel</c><00:03:35.340><c> still</c><00:03:35.699><c> has</c><00:03:35.960><c> and</c><00:03:36.099><c> why</c>

00:03:36.319 --> 00:03:38.419
it's<00:03:36.580><c> so</c><00:03:36.819><c> hard</c><00:03:37.000><c> to</c><00:03:37.319><c> see</c><00:03:37.599><c> how</c><00:03:37.919><c> that</c><00:03:38.240><c> peace</c>

00:03:38.419 --> 00:03:41.919
can<00:03:38.659><c> come</c><00:03:38.860><c> about</c><00:03:39.259><c> is</c><00:03:39.740><c> because</c><00:03:40.199><c> of</c><00:03:40.460><c> the</c><00:03:40.759><c> Palestinians</c><00:03:41.280><c> in</c><00:03:41.680><c> the</c>

00:03:41.919 --> 00:03:42.599
West<00:03:42.180><c> Bank.</c>

00:03:42.599 --> 00:03:48.639
So<00:03:43.199><c> there</c><00:03:43.419><c> could</c><00:03:43.780><c> yet</c><00:03:44.180><c> still</c><00:03:44.520><c> be</c><00:03:44.879><c> a</c><00:03:45.159><c> major</c><00:03:45.620><c> upheaval</c><00:03:46.460><c> in</c><00:03:47.199><c> that</c><00:03:47.639><c> area.</c>

00:03:49.599 --> 00:03:52.199
We<00:03:49.740><c> looked</c><00:03:49.919><c> at</c><00:03:50.099><c> how</c><00:03:50.280><c> the</c><00:03:50.460><c> idea</c><00:03:50.740><c> of</c><00:03:50.939><c> the</c><00:03:51.120><c> two</c><00:03:51.280><c>-state</c><00:03:51.520><c> solution</c>

00:03:52.199 --> 00:03:55.900
is<00:03:53.039><c> really</c><00:03:53.340><c> just</c><00:03:54.500><c> past</c><00:03:55.039><c> the</c><00:03:55.280><c> best</c><00:03:55.520><c> before</c>

00:03:55.900 --> 00:04:01.180
date<00:03:56.159><c> and</c><00:03:56.879><c> it's</c><00:03:57.620><c> expired</c><00:03:58.060><c> and</c><00:03:58.960><c> really</c><00:03:59.400><c> it's</c><00:03:59.939><c> impractical</c><00:04:00.659><c> to</c>

00:04:01.180 --> 00:04:05.360
think<00:04:01.419><c> of</c><00:04:01.759><c> moving</c><00:04:02.659><c> half</c><00:04:03.439><c> a</c><00:04:03.620><c> million</c><00:04:03.960><c> Jews</c><00:04:04.680><c> from</c>

00:04:05.360 --> 00:04:09.280
their<00:04:05.659><c> homes</c><00:04:06.139><c> in</c><00:04:06.460><c> the</c><00:04:06.620><c> West</c><00:04:06.860><c> Bank</c><00:04:07.240><c> to</c><00:04:07.719><c> create</c><00:04:08.000><c> a</c><00:04:08.300><c> Palestinian</c><00:04:08.699><c> state.</c>

00:04:09.280 --> 00:04:14.719
And<00:04:09.819><c> so</c><00:04:10.319><c> even</c><00:04:11.120><c> the</c><00:04:11.460><c> peace</c><00:04:11.719><c> envoys</c><00:04:12.060><c> are</c><00:04:12.259><c> beginning</c><00:04:12.460><c> to</c><00:04:12.719><c> say,</c><00:04:13.699><c> look,</c><00:04:14.180><c> we</c>

00:04:14.719 --> 00:04:16.560
can't<00:04:15.280><c> do</c><00:04:15.520><c> this.</c>

00:04:17.980 --> 00:04:21.819
Next<00:04:18.680><c> to</c><00:04:19.379><c> Israel</c><00:04:19.740><c> is</c><00:04:20.120><c> the</c><00:04:20.279><c> Kingdom</c><00:04:20.600><c> of</c><00:04:20.920><c> Jordan.</c>

00:04:21.920 --> 00:04:25.879
And<00:04:22.459><c> we've</c><00:04:22.779><c> seen</c><00:04:23.019><c> the</c><00:04:23.480><c> Arab</c><00:04:23.720><c> Spring,</c><00:04:24.220><c> as</c><00:04:24.439><c> it's</c><00:04:24.699><c> been</c><00:04:25.040><c> called,</c>

00:04:26.199 --> 00:04:27.319
change<00:04:26.519><c> the</c><00:04:26.720><c> Middle</c><00:04:26.959><c> East.</c>

00:04:27.560 --> 00:04:33.920
We've<00:04:27.800><c> seen</c><00:04:27.980><c> it</c><00:04:28.339><c> destroy</c><00:04:29.379><c> Syria</c><00:04:30.259><c> and</c><00:04:32.279><c> Jordan</c><00:04:33.120><c> is</c><00:04:33.420><c> in</c><00:04:33.519><c> a</c><00:04:33.560><c> very</c>

00:04:33.920 --> 00:04:35.199
dangerous<00:04:34.519><c> position.</c>

00:04:35.199 --> 00:04:38.199
Again,<00:04:36.079><c> just</c><00:04:36.360><c> another</c><00:04:36.579><c> reason</c><00:04:36.920><c> that</c><00:04:37.139><c> Israel</c><00:04:37.459><c> can't</c><00:04:37.920><c> give</c><00:04:38.060><c> up</c>

00:04:38.199 --> 00:04:40.660
that<00:04:38.480><c> strategic</c><00:04:39.180><c> Jordan</c><00:04:39.920><c> Valley</c><00:04:40.319><c> because</c>

00:04:40.660 --> 00:04:44.360
they<00:04:40.899><c> need</c><00:04:41.079><c> to</c><00:04:41.279><c> be</c><00:04:41.399><c> able</c><00:04:41.600><c> to</c><00:04:42.240><c> protect</c><00:04:42.639><c> themselves</c><00:04:43.259><c> on</c><00:04:43.740><c> a</c>

00:04:44.360 --> 00:04:45.240
practical<00:04:44.839><c> level.</c>

00:04:45.720 --> 00:04:52.420
But<00:04:45.939><c> Jordan</c><00:04:46.120><c> has</c><00:04:46.360><c> a</c><00:04:46.519><c> population</c><00:04:46.920><c> of</c><00:04:47.160><c> six</c><00:04:47.319><c> and</c><00:04:47.480><c> a</c><00:04:47.519><c> half</c><00:04:47.699><c> million,</c><00:04:48.800><c> 3</c><00:04:49.079><c>.5</c><00:04:49.939><c> million</c><00:04:50.680><c> Palestinian</c><00:04:51.319><c> Arabs</c><00:04:51.839><c> and</c>

one<00:04:52.720><c> million</c><00:04:53.100><c> Palestinian</c><00:04:53.699><c> refugees.</c>

00:04:54.240 --> 00:04:57.500
Really<00:04:54.759><c> Jordan</c><00:04:55.220><c> is</c><00:04:55.600><c> the</c><00:04:55.839><c> Palestinian</c><00:04:56.259><c> state</c><00:04:56.680><c> and</c><00:04:57.160><c> that's,</c>

00:04:57.579 --> 00:05:00.160
you<00:04:57.579><c> know,</c><00:04:57.920><c> people</c><00:04:58.379><c> will</c><00:04:58.620><c> say</c><00:04:58.839><c> that</c><00:04:59.500><c> that's</c>

00:05:00.160 --> 00:05:00.699
the<00:05:00.420><c> case.</c>

00:05:00.699 --> 00:05:04.000

00:05:45.100 --> 00:05:47.139
But<00:05:45.540><c> Jordan</c><00:05:46.060><c> has</c><00:05:46.519><c> major</c><00:05:46.800><c> problems.</c>

00:05:47.199 --> 00:05:48.379

00:06:00.500 --> 00:06:03.259

00:06:05.779 --> 00:06:08.680
Jordan<00:06:05.980><c> is</c><00:06:06.199><c> in</c><00:06:06.300><c> a</c><00:06:06.500><c> very</c><00:06:06.800><c> precarious</c><00:06:07.480><c> situation.</c>

00:06:09.079 --> 00:06:12.639
This<00:06:09.319><c> is</c><00:06:09.600><c> conjecture,</c><00:06:10.459><c> but</c><00:06:10.579><c> if</c><00:06:10.800><c> Jordan</c><00:06:11.120><c> were</c><00:06:11.399><c> to</c><00:06:11.660><c> fall,</c><00:06:12.000><c> if</c><00:06:12.100><c> there</c><00:06:12.259><c> was</c><00:06:12.500><c> a</c>

00:06:12.639 --> 00:06:13.800
major<00:06:12.920><c> upheaval</c><00:06:13.480><c> there,</c>

00:06:14.019 --> 00:06:17.399
it<00:06:14.300><c> could</c><00:06:14.579><c> end</c><00:06:14.839><c> up</c><00:06:15.100><c> transforming</c><00:06:15.579><c> the</c><00:06:15.860><c> situation</c><00:06:16.199><c> in</c><00:06:16.379><c> the</c><00:06:16.459><c> West</c><00:06:16.660><c> Bank</c><00:06:16.860><c> as</c><00:06:17.120><c> well.</c>

00:06:17.399 --> 00:06:21.879
We<00:06:17.699><c> don't</c><00:06:17.939><c> know,</c><00:06:18.139><c> but</c><00:06:18.360><c> it's</c><00:06:18.819><c> definitely</c><00:06:19.300><c> something</c><00:06:19.720><c> that</c><00:06:20.980><c> we</c>

00:06:24.040 --> 00:06:25.779
So<00:06:24.259><c> whether</c><00:06:24.379><c> it's</c><00:06:24.660><c> Jordan</c><00:06:24.860><c> or</c><00:06:24.980><c> something</c><00:06:25.300><c> else,</c><00:06:25.500><c> there</c><00:06:25.620><c> could</c>

00:06:25.779 --> 00:06:29.000
be<00:06:26.040><c> a</c><00:06:26.160><c> major</c><00:06:26.519><c> upheaval</c><00:06:27.259><c> in</c><00:06:27.720><c> that</c><00:06:28.000><c> area</c>

00:06:29.339 --> 00:06:31.100
that<00:06:29.899><c> transforms</c><00:06:30.459><c> that</c><00:06:30.740><c> territory.</c>

00:06:31.220 --> 00:06:36.300
One<00:06:31.420><c> thing</c><00:06:31.639><c> that</c><00:06:31.800><c> we</c><00:06:31.939><c> should</c><00:06:32.160><c> know</c><00:06:32.600><c> is</c><00:06:33.000><c> that</c><00:06:33.139><c> if</c><00:06:33.240><c> we</c><00:06:33.500><c> ever</c><00:06:33.800><c> do</c><00:06:34.079><c> see</c><00:06:34.220><c> the</c><00:06:34.500><c> peace</c><00:06:34.660><c> and</c><00:06:34.899><c> safety,</c><00:06:35.319><c> I</c><00:06:35.339><c> believe,</c>

00:06:37.139 --> 00:06:40.019
that<00:06:37.139><c> peace</c><00:06:37.600><c> come,</c><00:06:38.339><c> it</c><00:06:38.519><c> will</c><00:06:38.779><c> not</c><00:06:38.980><c> be</c><00:06:39.160><c> for</c><00:06:39.360><c> very</c><00:06:39.720><c> long.</c>

00:06:40.439 --> 00:06:44.420
Because<00:06:40.779><c> a</c><00:06:41.040><c> situation</c><00:06:41.579><c> of</c><00:06:41.860><c> peace</c><00:06:42.100><c> and</c><00:06:42.379><c> prosperity</c><00:06:43.040><c> does</c><00:06:43.819><c> not</c>

00:06:44.420 --> 00:06:46.879
work<00:06:44.759><c> very</c><00:06:45.240><c> well</c><00:06:45.540><c> for</c><00:06:46.120><c> doing</c><00:06:46.399><c> what</c><00:06:46.620><c> we've</c>

00:06:46.879 --> 00:06:50.660
been<00:06:46.959><c> talking</c><00:06:47.300><c> about,</c><00:06:47.699><c> which</c><00:06:47.819><c> is</c><00:06:48.079><c> preparing</c><00:06:48.740><c> the</c><00:06:49.199><c> hearts</c><00:06:49.660><c> to</c>

00:06:50.660 --> 00:06:52.720
trust<00:06:51.139><c> and</c><00:06:51.480><c> need</c><00:06:51.819><c> God.</c>

00:06:52.759 --> 00:06:54.199
It<00:06:52.980><c> doesn't</c><00:06:53.339><c> help</c><00:06:53.680><c> for</c><00:06:53.920><c> that.</c>

00:06:54.480 --> 00:06:56.459
So<00:06:54.660><c> I</c><00:06:54.720><c> don't</c><00:06:54.959><c> think</c><00:06:55.079><c> that</c><00:06:55.339><c> period</c><00:06:55.660><c> will</c><00:06:55.879><c> be</c><00:06:56.040><c> very</c><00:06:56.300><c> long.</c>

00:06:56.500 --> 00:06:58.279
I<00:06:56.560><c> think</c><00:06:56.720><c> it</c><00:06:56.839><c> will</c><00:06:56.959><c> be</c><00:06:57.160><c> quite</c><00:06:57.379><c> short.</c>

00:06:58.399 --> 00:07:01.779
And<00:06:58.579><c> again,</c><00:06:58.759><c> that's</c><00:06:59.019><c> why</c><00:06:59.180><c> it</c><00:06:59.279><c> could</c><00:06:59.439><c> be</c><00:06:59.620><c> after</c><00:07:00.139><c> Christ</c><00:07:00.699><c> returns.</c>

00:07:03.459 --> 00:07:07.600
So<00:07:04.019><c> again,</c><00:07:04.740><c> as</c><00:07:05.019><c> Jordan</c><00:07:05.279><c> faces</c><00:07:05.660><c> terrorist</c><00:07:06.060><c> threats,</c><00:07:07.220><c> Israel</c>

00:07:07.600 --> 00:07:10.240
has<00:07:07.899><c> to</c><00:07:08.180><c> now</c><00:07:08.680><c> fortify</c><00:07:09.480><c> the</c><00:07:09.720><c> Jordan</c><00:07:09.920><c> Valley.</c>

00:07:10.300 --> 00:07:12.839
So<00:07:10.500><c> again,</c><00:07:10.660><c> it's</c><00:07:10.959><c> reinforcing</c><00:07:11.639><c> that</c><00:07:12.040><c> border.</c>

00:07:12.899 --> 00:07:17.259
Israel<00:07:13.399><c> needs</c><00:07:13.879><c> that</c><00:07:14.199><c> strategic</c><00:07:15.199><c> territory</c><00:07:15.860><c> and</c><00:07:16.379><c> can't</c><00:07:17.060><c> give</c>

00:07:17.259 --> 00:07:18.379
it<00:07:17.420><c> up.</c>

00:07:18.579 --> 00:07:21.180
I<00:07:18.579><c> don't</c><00:07:18.740><c> think</c><00:07:18.899><c> I'm</c><00:07:18.980><c> going</c><00:07:19.220><c> to</c><00:07:19.240><c> go</c><00:07:19.379><c> into</c><00:07:19.759><c> who</c><00:07:20.000><c> Sheba</c><00:07:20.319><c> and</c><00:07:20.579><c> Dedan</c><00:07:20.879><c> are</c>

00:07:21.180 --> 00:07:23.199
very<00:07:21.519><c> much</c><00:07:22.240><c> right</c><00:07:22.720><c> now.</c>

00:07:23.500 --> 00:07:25.699
John<00:07:23.680><c> had</c><00:07:23.879><c> a</c><00:07:23.959><c> couple</c><00:07:24.160><c> of</c><00:07:24.259><c> verses</c><00:07:24.500><c> the</c><00:07:24.680><c> other</c><00:07:24.860><c> night.</c>

00:07:25.720 --> 00:07:28.199
And<00:07:25.720><c> we</c><00:07:26.019><c> do</c><00:07:26.160><c> want</c><00:07:26.319><c> to</c><00:07:26.519><c> keep</c><00:07:26.920><c> moving</c><00:07:27.360><c> this</c><00:07:27.939><c> morning.</c>

00:07:28.300 --> 00:07:33.399
If<00:07:28.360><c> anybody</c><00:07:28.639><c> wants</c><00:07:29.279><c> these</c><00:07:30.220><c> quotes</c><00:07:30.540><c> from</c><00:07:31.079><c> Jesenius</c><00:07:31.579><c> and</c><00:07:31.720><c> so</c><00:07:31.980><c> forth,</c><00:07:32.939><c> I</c>

00:07:33.399 --> 00:07:35.279
can<00:07:33.699><c> certainly</c><00:07:33.939><c> provide</c><00:07:34.240><c> them.</c>

00:07:35.379 --> 00:07:39.660
But<00:07:35.800><c> we</c><00:07:35.980><c> do</c><00:07:36.360><c> see</c><00:07:36.759><c> that</c><00:07:37.240><c> continued</c><00:07:37.560><c> division</c><00:07:38.000><c> in</c><00:07:38.180><c> the</c><00:07:38.399><c> Arab</c><00:07:38.579><c> world</c><00:07:38.819><c> become</c><00:07:39.160><c> more</c><00:07:39.620><c> and</c>

00:07:39.660 --> 00:07:40.560
more<00:07:40.079><c> pronounced.</c>

00:07:40.560 --> 00:07:42.959
And<00:07:40.720><c> it</c><00:07:40.759><c> really</c><00:07:41.139><c> is</c><00:07:41.480><c> quite</c><00:07:41.819><c> amazing.</c>

00:07:43.980 --> 00:07:47.920
This<00:07:44.100><c> is</c><00:07:44.279><c> the</c><00:07:44.500><c> Saudis,</c><00:07:45.259><c> a</c><00:07:45.300><c> tried</c><00:07:45.560><c> and</c><00:07:46.079><c> attested</c><00:07:46.579><c> ally</c><00:07:47.019><c> for</c><00:07:47.620><c> Britain.</c>

00:07:48.060 --> 00:07:50.819
Britain<00:07:48.379><c> must</c><00:07:48.699><c> side</c><00:07:48.920><c> with</c><00:07:49.160><c> the</c><00:07:49.399><c> Saudis</c><00:07:49.959><c> against</c><00:07:50.379><c> Iran.</c>

00:07:51.000 --> 00:07:53.180
And<00:07:51.160><c> that's</c><00:07:51.399><c> the</c><00:07:51.639><c> division</c><00:07:51.879><c> in</c><00:07:52.120><c> the</c><00:07:52.220><c> Middle</c><00:07:52.399><c> East,</c><00:07:52.839><c> exactly</c>

00:07:53.180 --> 00:07:54.540
like<00:07:53.720><c> Ezekiel</c><00:07:54.100><c> 38.</c>

00:07:54.779 --> 00:07:58.100
It<00:07:55.040><c> really,</c><00:07:55.360><c> really</c><00:07:55.600><c> is</c><00:07:56.339><c> quite</c><00:07:56.939><c> incredible.</c>

00:07:59.100 --> 00:08:03.480
And<00:07:59.100><c> this</c><00:08:00.019><c> news</c><00:08:00.259><c> report</c><00:08:00.600><c> says</c><00:08:00.819><c> the</c><00:08:01.019><c> UK</c><00:08:01.339><c> is</c><00:08:01.540><c> building</c><00:08:01.839><c> the</c><00:08:02.139><c> first</c><00:08:02.379><c> permanent</c><00:08:02.860><c> Middle</c><00:08:03.240><c> East</c>

00:08:03.480 --> 00:08:04.480
base<00:08:03.920><c> since</c>

00:08:04.480 --> 00:08:06.699
1971<00:08:05.639><c> in</c><00:08:06.300><c> Bahrain.</c>

00:08:06.699 --> 00:08:11.379
And<00:08:06.779><c> so</c><00:08:07.420><c> Britain</c><00:08:07.879><c> sees</c><00:08:08.240><c> that</c><00:08:08.899><c> as</c><00:08:09.100><c> very</c><00:08:09.500><c> important</c><00:08:09.959><c> and</c><00:08:10.259><c> very</c><00:08:10.860><c> strategic.</c>

00:08:11.779 --> 00:08:14.319
And<00:08:11.879><c> the</c><00:08:12.019><c> Gulf</c><00:08:12.220><c> states</c><00:08:12.519><c> are</c><00:08:12.740><c> even</c><00:08:13.060><c> looking</c><00:08:13.399><c> to</c><00:08:13.699><c> purchase</c>

00:08:14.319 --> 00:08:15.839
Israeli<00:08:14.920><c> defense</c><00:08:15.360><c> systems.</c>

00:08:16.139 --> 00:08:19.980
So<00:08:16.240><c> there's</c><00:08:16.420><c> a</c><00:08:16.480><c> lot</c><00:08:16.699><c> of</c><00:08:17.439><c> sort</c><00:08:17.699><c> of</c><00:08:17.920><c> under</c><00:08:18.079><c> the</c><00:08:18.319><c> table</c><00:08:19.040><c> back</c><00:08:19.680><c> and</c>

00:08:19.980 --> 00:08:21.740
forth<00:08:20.199><c> between</c><00:08:20.720><c> Israel</c><00:08:21.120><c> and</c><00:08:21.279><c> the</c><00:08:21.459><c> Saudis</c>

00:08:21.740 --> 00:08:23.600
because<00:08:21.939><c> they</c><00:08:22.139><c> have</c><00:08:22.259><c> a</c><00:08:22.459><c> common</c><00:08:22.779><c> enemy,</c><00:08:23.439><c> Iran.</c>

00:08:24.019 --> 00:08:26.939
And<00:08:24.579><c> the</c><00:08:24.800><c> Saudis</c><00:08:25.399><c> hate</c><00:08:25.699><c> Iran</c><00:08:26.079><c> more</c><00:08:26.319><c> than</c><00:08:26.500><c> Israel.</c>

00:08:27.220 --> 00:08:28.839
And<00:08:27.660><c> they</c><00:08:27.899><c> just</c><00:08:28.060><c> have</c><00:08:28.220><c> this</c><00:08:28.519><c> rhetoric.</c>

00:08:29.300 --> 00:08:31.980
But<00:08:29.300><c> otherwise,</c><00:08:30.220><c> in</c><00:08:30.420><c> the</c><00:08:30.600><c> past,</c><00:08:30.860><c> there's</c><00:08:30.939><c> been</c><00:08:31.120><c> several</c><00:08:31.379><c> reports</c><00:08:31.860><c> of</c>

00:08:31.980 --> 00:08:34.740
them<00:08:32.179><c> saying</c><00:08:32.620><c> to</c><00:08:33.799><c> the</c><00:08:34.059><c> Israelis,</c><00:08:34.460><c> you're</c>

00:08:34.740 --> 00:08:36.519
quite<00:08:34.980><c> welcome</c><00:08:35.259><c> to</c><00:08:35.480><c> use</c><00:08:35.759><c> our</c><00:08:36.019><c> airspace.</c>

00:08:36.620 --> 00:08:39.240
Just<00:08:36.820><c> don't</c><00:08:37.139><c> tell</c><00:08:37.279><c> anybody,</c><00:08:38.059><c> you</c><00:08:38.159><c> know,</c><00:08:38.360><c> we</c><00:08:38.580><c> said</c><00:08:38.720><c> you</c><00:08:38.919><c> could.</c>

00:08:39.740 --> 00:08:42.519
We'll<00:08:40.320><c> just</c><00:08:40.580><c> turn</c><00:08:40.759><c> a</c><00:08:40.940><c> blind</c><00:08:41.120><c> eye</c><00:08:41.340><c> to</c><00:08:41.519><c> it.</c>

00:08:43.179 --> 00:08:47.539
And<00:08:43.440><c> again,</c><00:08:44.480><c> that</c><00:08:44.639><c> issue</c><00:08:45.139><c> of</c><00:08:45.440><c> Hezbollah</c><00:08:46.039><c> is</c><00:08:46.679><c> splitting</c><00:08:47.059><c> the</c>

00:08:47.539 --> 00:08:48.220
Arab<00:08:47.799><c> world.</c>

00:08:48.500 --> 00:08:50.879
Hezbollah<00:08:49.019><c> is</c><00:08:49.279><c> supporting</c><00:08:49.700><c> the</c><00:08:49.960><c> Assad</c><00:08:50.220><c> regime.</c>

00:08:51.360 --> 00:08:52.840
It's<00:08:51.919><c> allied</c><00:08:52.139><c> with</c><00:08:52.440><c> Iran.</c>

00:08:53.200 --> 00:08:56.960
And<00:08:53.480><c> that</c><00:08:53.720><c> is</c><00:08:54.179><c> splitting</c><00:08:54.419><c> them</c><00:08:54.940><c> from</c><00:08:55.860><c> the</c><00:08:56.240><c> Saudis</c><00:08:56.580><c> and</c><00:08:56.759><c> from</c>

00:08:56.960 --> 00:08:59.139
those<00:08:57.460><c> nations,</c><00:08:58.019><c> those</c><00:08:58.279><c> Shiba</c><00:08:58.620><c> and</c><00:08:58.820><c> Dina</c>

00:08:59.139 --> 00:09:03.299
nations<00:08:59.700><c> in</c><00:09:00.000><c> the</c><00:09:00.159><c> south</c><00:09:00.519><c> and</c><00:09:01.299><c> Russia</c><00:09:01.759><c> warning</c><00:09:02.159><c> the</c><00:09:02.500><c> Saudis,</c>

00:09:03.460 --> 00:09:06.019
deploying<00:09:03.840><c> ground</c><00:09:04.379><c> troops</c><00:09:04.679><c> in</c><00:09:04.899><c> Syria</c><00:09:05.320><c> would</c>

00:09:06.019 --> 00:09:08.120
unleash<00:09:06.600><c> a</c><00:09:06.960><c> new</c><00:09:07.320><c> world</c><00:09:07.820><c> war.</c>

00:09:08.340 --> 00:09:11.379
So<00:09:08.559><c> Russia</c><00:09:08.840><c> getting</c><00:09:09.139><c> very</c><00:09:09.659><c> threatening</c><00:09:10.059><c> against</c><00:09:10.799><c> the</c><00:09:11.080><c> Saudis</c>

00:09:11.379 --> 00:09:15.240
that<00:09:11.519><c> you</c><00:09:11.679><c> better</c><00:09:11.919><c> not</c><00:09:12.299><c> come</c><00:09:12.919><c> into</c><00:09:14.299><c> Syria</c>

00:09:15.240 --> 00:09:17.220
in<00:09:16.019><c> any</c><00:09:16.379><c> way.</c>

00:09:17.919 --> 00:09:18.159
All<00:09:18.039><c> right.</c>

00:09:18.179 --> 00:09:19.860
So<00:09:18.259><c> that's</c><00:09:18.539><c> the</c><00:09:18.679><c> one</c><00:09:18.860><c> thing</c><00:09:19.000><c> we</c><00:09:19.159><c> just</c><00:09:19.279><c> want</c><00:09:19.340><c> to</c><00:09:19.480><c> take</c><00:09:19.600><c> a</c><00:09:19.720><c> brief</c>

00:09:19.860 --> 00:09:20.379
look<00:09:20.080><c> at.</c>

00:09:20.600 --> 00:09:23.820
And<00:09:20.759><c> now</c><00:09:20.980><c> we</c><00:09:21.100><c> want</c><00:09:21.299><c> to</c><00:09:21.899><c> just</c><00:09:22.279><c> mention</c><00:09:22.620><c> this</c><00:09:22.899><c> and</c><00:09:23.440><c> go</c><00:09:23.659><c> through</c>

00:09:23.820 --> 00:09:24.759
this<00:09:24.019><c> as</c><00:09:24.200><c> fast</c><00:09:24.320><c> as</c><00:09:24.500><c> we</c><00:09:24.559><c> can.</c>

00:09:25.039 --> 00:09:27.179
So<00:09:25.360><c> again,</c><00:09:25.779><c> hopefully</c><00:09:25.940><c> you'll</c><00:09:26.200><c> excuse</c><00:09:26.399><c> me</c><00:09:26.559><c> for</c><00:09:26.740><c> doing</c><00:09:26.919><c> this,</c>

00:09:27.340 --> 00:09:29.120
but<00:09:27.559><c> we've</c><00:09:27.759><c> already</c><00:09:27.980><c> seen</c><00:09:28.259><c> this</c><00:09:28.600><c> quote</c><00:09:28.820><c> and</c>

00:09:29.120 --> 00:09:32.299
the<00:09:29.460><c> Catholic</c><00:09:30.080><c> attitude</c><00:09:30.799><c> to</c><00:09:31.279><c> the</c><00:09:31.399><c> nation</c><00:09:31.679><c> of</c><00:09:31.919><c> Israel.</c>

00:09:32.740 --> 00:09:35.200
And<00:09:33.039><c> really</c><00:09:33.220><c> in</c><00:09:33.419><c> understanding</c><00:09:34.080><c> what's</c><00:09:34.700><c> happening</c><00:09:34.940><c> in</c><00:09:35.100><c> the</c>

00:09:46.120 --> 00:09:49.080

00:09:49.500 --> 00:09:52.620
And<00:09:49.779><c> so</c><00:09:49.919><c> they</c><00:09:50.080><c> were</c><00:09:50.299><c> objecting</c><00:09:50.840><c> to</c><00:09:51.480><c> the</c><00:09:51.860><c> state</c><00:09:52.039><c> of</c><00:09:52.240><c> Israel</c><00:09:52.440><c> in</c>

00:09:52.620 --> 00:09:54.000
the<00:09:52.720><c> very</c><00:09:52.919><c> beginning.</c>

00:09:54.340 --> 00:09:57.840
Then<00:09:54.539><c> it</c><00:09:54.679><c> was</c><00:09:54.919><c> the</c><00:09:55.100><c> reason</c><00:09:55.379><c> that</c><00:09:55.559><c> it</c><00:09:55.740><c> wasn't</c><00:09:56.100><c> a</c><00:09:56.299><c> biblical</c><00:09:56.659><c> Israel,</c><00:09:57.580><c> but</c>

00:09:57.840 --> 00:09:58.720
a<00:09:58.039><c> secular</c><00:09:58.399><c> state.</c>

00:09:58.720 --> 00:10:02.659
The<00:09:58.899><c> thing</c><00:09:59.159><c> that</c><00:09:59.360><c> the</c><00:09:59.539><c> Vatican</c><00:09:59.820><c> fears</c><00:10:00.200><c> the</c><00:10:00.539><c> most</c><00:10:00.919><c> is</c><00:10:01.419><c> a</c><00:10:01.639><c> biblical</c><00:10:02.059><c> Israel</c>

00:10:04.299 --> 00:10:07.799
that<00:10:04.659><c> has</c><00:10:04.960><c> control</c><00:10:05.659><c> of</c><00:10:06.179><c> what</c><00:10:06.399><c> they</c><00:10:06.720><c> call</c><00:10:06.899><c> the</c><00:10:07.159><c> holy</c><00:10:07.360><c> places.</c>

00:10:07.980 --> 00:10:10.299
That<00:10:08.139><c> is</c><00:10:08.360><c> the</c><00:10:08.500><c> Catholic</c><00:10:08.799><c> nightmare</c><00:10:09.240><c> and</c><00:10:09.659><c> it's</c><00:10:09.899><c> coming</c><00:10:10.059><c> to</c>

00:10:10.299 --> 00:10:11.679
pass<00:10:10.480><c> very</c><00:10:10.860><c> quickly.</c>

00:10:12.539 --> 00:10:17.320
This<00:10:12.779><c> is</c><00:10:13.080><c> a</c><00:10:13.279><c> religious</c><00:10:13.519><c> Zionist</c><00:10:13.940><c> rabbi,</c><00:10:14.360><c> one</c><00:10:14.500><c> of</c><00:10:14.620><c> the</c><00:10:14.799><c> top</c><00:10:15.000><c> religious</c><00:10:15.399><c> Zionist</c><00:10:15.779><c> rabbis,</c><00:10:17.080><c> the</c>

00:10:20.299 --> 00:10:23.720
And<00:10:20.500><c> just</c><00:10:20.620><c> look</c><00:10:20.720><c> at</c><00:10:20.860><c> the</c><00:10:21.019><c> antagonism</c><00:10:21.600><c> to</c><00:10:21.779><c> the</c><00:10:21.940><c> Vatican</c><00:10:22.220><c> in</c><00:10:22.679><c> his</c><00:10:22.919><c> statement.</c>

00:10:23.779 --> 00:10:27.120
When<00:10:24.299><c> the</c><00:10:24.519><c> flag</c><00:10:24.720><c> of</c><00:10:24.940><c> the</c><00:10:25.059><c> state</c><00:10:25.179><c> of</c><00:10:25.320><c> Israel</c><00:10:25.559><c> was</c><00:10:25.840><c> raised,</c><00:10:26.700><c> all</c>

00:10:27.120 --> 00:10:29.539

00:10:29.539 --> 00:10:31.259
miserable<00:10:30.200><c> Jews</c><00:10:30.580><c> collapsed.</c>

00:10:31.700 --> 00:10:34.539
We<00:10:31.840><c> returned</c><00:10:32.200><c> to</c><00:10:32.419><c> our</c><00:10:32.600><c> land</c><00:10:32.799><c> and</c><00:10:32.940><c> it</c><00:10:33.120><c> became</c><00:10:33.399><c> clear</c><00:10:33.799><c> that</c><00:10:34.299><c> the</c>

00:10:34.539 --> 00:10:36.419

00:10:36.820 --> 00:10:40.259
Proved<00:10:37.240><c> the</c><00:10:37.399><c> Catholic</c><00:10:37.779><c> doctrine</c><00:10:38.240><c> wrong,</c><00:10:39.259><c> that</c><00:10:39.379><c> the</c><00:10:39.580><c> Jews</c><00:10:39.779><c> were</c><00:10:40.019><c> to</c>

00:10:40.259 --> 00:10:42.600

00:10:42.600 --> 00:10:44.539
in<00:10:42.960><c> the</c><00:10:43.179><c> earth</c><00:10:43.340><c> because</c><00:10:43.659><c> they</c><00:10:43.919><c> killed</c><00:10:44.120><c> God.</c>

00:10:44.919 --> 00:10:47.580
That<00:10:45.120><c> was</c><00:10:45.360><c> the</c><00:10:45.620><c> Catholic</c><00:10:45.980><c> doctrine</c><00:10:46.440><c> and</c><00:10:46.820><c> when</c><00:10:47.000><c> the</c><00:10:47.120><c> Jews</c><00:10:47.299><c> came</c>

00:10:47.580 --> 00:10:49.740
back,<00:10:48.019><c> it</c><00:10:48.220><c> proved</c><00:10:48.419><c> that</c><00:10:48.799><c> wrong</c><00:10:49.059><c> and</c><00:10:49.519><c> they're</c>

00:10:49.740 --> 00:10:50.379
saying<00:10:50.039><c> so.</c>

00:10:50.379 --> 00:10:53.799
So<00:10:50.840><c> the</c><00:10:51.299><c> state</c><00:10:51.519><c> of</c><00:10:51.720><c> Israel,</c><00:10:52.360><c> especially</c><00:10:52.700><c> a</c><00:10:52.860><c> biblical</c><00:10:53.220><c> Israel,</c>

00:10:54.159 --> 00:10:56.940
is<00:10:54.320><c> a</c><00:10:54.580><c> challenge</c><00:10:55.039><c> to</c><00:10:55.320><c> basic</c><00:10:55.720><c> Catholic</c><00:10:56.320><c> theology</c>

00:10:56.940 --> 00:10:58.899
and<00:10:57.559><c> so</c><00:10:57.919><c> they</c><00:10:58.179><c> don't</c><00:10:58.399><c> like</c><00:10:58.600><c> it.</c>

00:10:59.159 --> 00:11:04.120
So<00:10:59.200><c> from</c><00:10:59.399><c> the</c><00:10:59.480><c> very</c><00:10:59.720><c> beginning,</c><00:11:01.080><c> Herzl</c><00:11:01.879><c> right</c><00:11:02.360><c> at</c><00:11:02.539><c> the</c><00:11:02.639><c> beginning</c><00:11:02.940><c> he</c><00:11:03.200><c> says,</c><00:11:04.120><c> I</c>

00:11:04.120 --> 00:11:05.679
believe<00:11:04.580><c> Rome</c><00:11:05.220><c> will</c>

00:11:05.679 --> 00:11:09.039
be<00:11:05.940><c> against</c><00:11:06.299><c> this</c><00:11:06.580><c> because</c><00:11:06.879><c> she</c><00:11:07.080><c> does</c><00:11:07.320><c> not</c><00:11:07.500><c> consider</c><00:11:07.799><c> the</c><00:11:08.000><c> solution</c><00:11:08.519><c> of</c>

00:11:09.039 --> 00:11:10.519
the<00:11:09.200><c> Jewish</c><00:11:09.399><c> question</c><00:11:09.879><c> in</c><00:11:10.120><c> a</c><00:11:10.200><c> Jewish</c>

00:11:10.519 --> 00:11:13.179
state<00:11:10.860><c> and</c><00:11:11.340><c> perhaps</c><00:11:11.860><c> even</c><00:11:12.659><c> fears</c><00:11:12.899><c> it.</c>

00:11:13.360 --> 00:11:15.340
So<00:11:13.580><c> from</c><00:11:13.779><c> the</c><00:11:13.879><c> very</c><00:11:14.139><c> beginning</c><00:11:14.340><c> they've</c><00:11:14.600><c> been</c><00:11:14.720><c> against</c><00:11:14.980><c> it</c><00:11:15.120><c> and</c><00:11:15.200><c> we</c>

00:11:15.340 --> 00:11:17.440
saw<00:11:15.480><c> that</c><00:11:15.740><c> quote</c><00:11:15.879><c> in</c><00:11:16.679><c> the</c><00:11:16.820><c> Christadelphian</c>

00:11:17.440 --> 00:11:19.000
there<00:11:17.639><c> the</c><00:11:17.840><c> other</c><00:11:18.080><c> day.</c>

00:11:19.580 --> 00:11:21.980
We'll<00:11:20.240><c> miss</c><00:11:20.460><c> out</c><00:11:20.679><c> that</c><00:11:20.899><c> guy.</c>

00:11:23.419 --> 00:11:28.120
So<00:11:23.559><c> again,</c><00:11:23.720><c> they're</c><00:11:23.899><c> just</c><00:11:24.080><c> talking</c><00:11:24.299><c> about</c><00:11:25.779><c> the</c><00:11:27.320><c> Jews</c><00:11:27.759><c> having</c>

00:11:28.120 --> 00:11:30.860
rule<00:11:28.440><c> over</c><00:11:28.720><c> what</c><00:11:28.860><c> they</c><00:11:29.179><c> call</c><00:11:29.299><c> the</c><00:11:29.559><c> holy</c><00:11:29.779><c> places</c>

00:11:31.070 --> 00:11:33.779
is<00:11:31.399><c> intolerable</c><00:11:32.279><c> for</c><00:11:32.659><c> Christians.</c>

00:11:34.220 --> 00:11:39.600
Haim<00:11:34.419><c> Weissman</c><00:11:34.980><c> in</c><00:11:35.379><c> this</c><00:11:35.659><c> letter</c><00:11:36.620><c> says</c><00:11:37.240><c> the</c><00:11:37.500><c> Vatican</c><00:11:37.919><c> was</c><00:11:38.720><c> organizing</c><00:11:39.220><c> all</c>

00:11:41.059 --> 00:11:43.980

00:11:43.980 --> 00:11:47.220
So<00:11:44.139><c> this</c><00:11:44.299><c> is</c><00:11:44.519><c> 1917</c><00:11:45.320><c> and</c><00:11:45.980><c> this</c><00:11:46.159><c> is</c><00:11:46.379><c> essentially</c><00:11:46.620><c> the</c><00:11:46.820><c> same</c><00:11:46.960><c> thing</c><00:11:47.120><c> that</c>

00:11:56.480 --> 00:11:58.940
And<00:11:56.559><c> if</c><00:11:56.740><c> you</c><00:11:56.919><c> look</c><00:11:57.080><c> at</c><00:11:57.240><c> any</c><00:11:57.440><c> of</c><00:11:57.539><c> the</c><00:11:57.740><c> early</c><00:11:57.980><c> partition</c><00:11:58.399><c> plans</c><00:11:58.700><c> and</c><00:11:58.820><c> I</c>

00:11:58.940 --> 00:12:00.200

and<00:24:23.720><c> look</c><00:24:24.000><c> at</c><00:24:24.420><c> this</c><00:24:25.700><c> little</c><00:24:26.140><c> saying</c><00:24:26.559><c> in</c><00:24:27.660><c> Revelation,</c><00:24:28.160><c> chapter</c>

00:24:28.400 --> 00:24:29.799
16,<00:24:28.920><c> verse</c><00:24:29.160><c> 12,</c>

00:24:30.259 --> 00:24:32.460
about<00:24:30.519><c> the</c><00:24:30.799><c> way</c><00:24:31.119><c> of</c><00:24:31.420><c> the</c><00:24:31.599><c> kings</c><00:24:31.859><c> of</c><00:24:32.059><c> the</c><00:24:32.240><c> East.</c>

00:24:32.500 --> 00:24:34.980
And<00:24:32.640><c> hopefully</c><00:24:32.900><c> we</c><00:24:33.019><c> have</c><00:24:33.140><c> enough</c><00:24:33.319><c> time</c><00:24:33.559><c> just</c><00:24:33.759><c> to</c><00:24:33.960><c> fill</c><00:24:34.059><c> it</c><00:24:34.279><c> out</c>

00:24:34.980 --> 00:24:37.500
because<00:24:35.460><c> it</c><00:24:35.660><c> really</c><00:24:35.859><c> brings</c><00:24:36.079><c> together</c><00:24:36.460><c> a</c><00:24:36.519><c> lot</c><00:24:36.660><c> of</c><00:24:36.799><c> the</c><00:24:37.019><c> ideas</c>

00:24:37.500 --> 00:24:39.859
that<00:24:37.859><c> we've</c><00:24:38.200><c> been</c><00:24:38.579><c> talking</c><00:24:38.960><c> about.</c>

00:24:40.079 --> 00:24:42.539
So<00:24:40.519><c> the</c><00:24:40.720><c> sixth</c><00:24:40.920><c> angel</c><00:24:41.200><c> poured</c><00:24:41.400><c> out</c><00:24:41.539><c> his</c><00:24:41.740><c> vial</c><00:24:41.920><c> upon</c><00:24:42.180><c> the</c><00:24:42.400><c> great</c>

00:24:42.539 --> 00:24:43.440
river<00:24:42.799><c> Euphrates</c>

00:24:43.440 --> 00:24:44.799
and<00:24:43.660><c> the</c><00:24:43.779><c> water</c><00:24:43.980><c> was</c><00:24:44.279><c> dried</c><00:24:44.460><c> up.</c>

00:24:45.000 --> 00:24:46.900
And<00:24:45.160><c> we've</c><00:24:45.319><c> been</c><00:24:45.460><c> looking</c><00:24:45.740><c> at</c><00:24:45.920><c> that</c><00:24:46.200><c> yesterday,</c>

00:24:47.319 --> 00:24:50.319
how<00:24:47.440><c> the</c><00:24:47.640><c> power</c><00:24:48.039><c> of</c><00:24:48.220><c> those</c><00:24:48.440><c> nations</c><00:24:48.799><c> in</c><00:24:49.160><c> the</c><00:24:49.299><c> region</c><00:24:49.539><c> of</c><00:24:49.720><c> the</c><00:24:49.839><c> Euphrates</c>

00:24:50.319 --> 00:24:53.420
has<00:24:51.059><c> been</c><00:24:51.380><c> dried</c><00:24:51.539><c> up</c><00:24:51.740><c> and</c><00:24:51.940><c> continues</c><00:24:52.480><c> to</c><00:24:52.779><c> dry</c><00:24:52.900><c> up</c>

00:24:53.420 --> 00:24:57.539
so<00:24:53.599><c> that</c><00:24:53.740><c> it</c><00:24:53.880><c> wouldn't</c><00:24:54.140><c> impede</c><00:24:54.640><c> the</c><00:24:56.180><c> physical</c><00:24:56.700><c> development</c>

00:24:57.539 --> 00:24:59.779
taking<00:24:58.940><c> place</c><00:24:59.299><c> in</c><00:24:59.460><c> the</c><00:24:59.619><c> land</c>

00:24:59.779 --> 00:25:03.759
or<00:25:00.079><c> the</c><00:25:00.400><c> spiritual</c><00:25:00.980><c> development</c><00:25:01.740><c> that</c><00:25:02.099><c> is</c><00:25:02.279><c> beginning</c><00:25:02.599><c> to</c><00:25:03.000><c> take</c><00:25:03.180><c> place</c><00:25:03.539><c> in</c>

00:25:03.759 --> 00:25:04.039
the<00:25:03.900><c> land.</c>

00:25:04.059 --> 00:25:07.579
So<00:25:04.279><c> that</c><00:25:04.440><c> even</c><00:25:04.759><c> though</c><00:25:05.200><c> the</c><00:25:05.440><c> nations</c><00:25:05.839><c> may</c><00:25:06.259><c> want</c><00:25:06.500><c> to</c><00:25:07.200><c> get</c><00:25:07.380><c> rid</c>

00:25:07.579 --> 00:25:08.339
of<00:25:07.720><c> the</c><00:25:07.859><c> Jewish</c><00:25:08.039><c> state,</c>

00:25:08.339 --> 00:25:12.240
they<00:25:08.519><c> have</c><00:25:08.960><c> been</c><00:25:09.480><c> unable</c><00:25:10.019><c> to</c><00:25:10.500><c> do</c><00:25:10.759><c> so</c><00:25:11.160><c> and</c><00:25:11.539><c> that</c><00:25:11.779><c> development</c>

00:25:12.240 --> 00:25:15.519
continues<00:25:12.859><c> to</c><00:25:13.079><c> be</c><00:25:13.259><c> able</c><00:25:13.500><c> to</c><00:25:14.559><c> grow.</c>

00:25:16.920 --> 00:25:19.380
Well,<00:25:17.099><c> all</c><00:25:17.319><c> that</c><00:25:17.579><c> happened</c><00:25:17.980><c> so</c><00:25:18.240><c> that</c><00:25:18.400><c> the</c><00:25:18.619><c> way</c><00:25:18.779><c> of</c><00:25:19.000><c> the</c><00:25:19.160><c> kings</c>

00:25:19.380 --> 00:25:21.599
of<00:25:19.579><c> the</c><00:25:19.779><c> East</c><00:25:20.019><c> might</c><00:25:20.299><c> be</c><00:25:20.680><c> prepared.</c>

00:25:21.799 --> 00:25:23.700
And<00:25:22.119><c> that</c><00:25:22.240><c> man,</c><00:25:22.640><c> Samuel</c><00:25:22.819><c> Craddock,</c><00:25:23.700><c> said,</c>

00:25:24.039 --> 00:25:26.359
so<00:25:24.180><c> that</c><00:25:24.359><c> the</c><00:25:24.579><c> Jews</c><00:25:24.799><c> would</c><00:25:25.119><c> be</c><00:25:25.380><c> able</c><00:25:25.599><c> to</c><00:25:25.819><c> be</c><00:25:26.000><c> restored.</c>

00:25:26.359 --> 00:25:28.660
And<00:25:26.539><c> we've</c><00:25:26.839><c> seen</c><00:25:27.180><c> that</c><00:25:27.740><c> happen.</c>

00:25:28.799 --> 00:25:31.640
But<00:25:29.119><c> we</c><00:25:29.720><c> believe</c><00:25:29.940><c> that</c><00:25:30.059><c> there's</c><00:25:30.259><c> more</c><00:25:30.480><c> to</c><00:25:30.680><c> this</c><00:25:30.920><c> saying</c><00:25:31.160><c> than</c>

00:25:31.640 --> 00:25:32.539
just<00:25:32.259><c> that.</c>

00:25:32.640 --> 00:25:34.759
So<00:25:33.119><c> we're</c><00:25:33.339><c> going</c><00:25:33.420><c> to</c><00:25:33.559><c> ask</c><00:25:33.859><c> some</c><00:25:34.059><c> of</c><00:25:34.180><c> these</c><00:25:34.380><c> questions</c>

00:25:34.759 --> 00:25:38.400
and<00:25:34.920><c> try</c><00:25:35.140><c> and</c><00:25:35.380><c> answer</c><00:25:35.599><c> them</c><00:25:35.799><c> over</c><00:25:36.099><c> the</c><00:25:36.259><c> next</c><00:25:36.720><c> half</c><00:25:37.859><c> an</c><00:25:38.059><c> hour,</c><00:25:38.240><c> I</c>

00:25:38.400 --> 00:25:39.619
suppose<00:25:38.619><c> we</c><00:25:38.859><c> have.</c>

00:25:40.380 --> 00:25:41.440
So<00:25:40.619><c> who</c><00:25:40.740><c> are</c><00:25:40.920><c> these</c><00:25:41.119><c> kings?</c>

00:25:41.519 --> 00:25:42.400
What<00:25:41.680><c> is</c><00:25:41.900><c> their</c><00:25:42.079><c> way?</c>

00:25:42.440 --> 00:25:43.380
Where<00:25:42.619><c> does</c><00:25:42.819><c> it</c><00:25:43.019><c> go?</c>

00:25:43.599 --> 00:25:44.640
Who<00:25:43.779><c> will</c><00:25:44.039><c> prepare</c><00:25:44.339><c> it?</c>

00:25:44.660 --> 00:25:46.319
And<00:25:44.799><c> how</c><00:25:45.019><c> will</c><00:25:45.200><c> it</c><00:25:45.400><c> be</c><00:25:45.900><c> prepared?</c>

00:25:46.660 --> 00:25:49.700
So<00:25:46.759><c> let's</c><00:25:46.940><c> take</c><00:25:47.180><c> a</c><00:25:47.259><c> look</c><00:25:47.420><c> at</c><00:25:47.660><c> Revelation</c><00:25:48.039><c> 16,</c><00:25:48.940><c> verse</c><00:25:49.099><c> 12.</c>

00:25:50.099 --> 00:25:52.759
And<00:25:50.279><c> one</c><00:25:50.380><c> of</c><00:25:50.500><c> the</c><00:25:50.579><c> things</c><00:25:50.839><c> that</c><00:25:51.259><c> we</c><00:25:51.539><c> do</c><00:25:51.839><c> have</c><00:25:52.099><c> to</c><00:25:52.279><c> do</c><00:25:52.480><c> here</c>

00:25:52.759 --> 00:25:59.119
is<00:25:52.920><c> a</c><00:25:52.960><c> little</c><00:25:53.240><c> bit</c><00:25:53.579><c> of</c><00:25:54.180><c> research</c><00:25:54.660><c> into</c><00:25:54.920><c> some</c><00:25:55.259><c> words</c><00:25:55.720><c> just</c><00:25:56.980><c> to</c>

00:25:59.119 --> 00:26:01.799
help<00:25:59.400><c> us</c><00:25:59.799><c> to</c><00:26:00.240><c> understand</c><00:26:00.799><c> it.</c>

00:26:02.180 --> 00:26:10.019
So<00:26:02.480><c> the</c><00:26:03.019><c> literal</c><00:26:03.640><c> translation</c><00:26:04.539><c> of</c><00:26:05.440><c> that</c><00:26:06.079><c> word</c><00:26:06.599><c> East</c><00:26:07.240><c> is</c><00:26:08.359><c> risings</c><00:26:09.039><c> of</c><00:26:09.480><c> a</c><00:26:09.779><c> sun.</c>

00:26:10.380 --> 00:26:12.720
And<00:26:10.599><c> it's</c><00:26:10.859><c> not</c><00:26:11.180><c> the</c><00:26:11.460><c> usual</c><00:26:11.920><c> word</c><00:26:12.240><c> for</c><00:26:12.559><c> East.</c>

00:26:12.759 --> 00:26:15.200
Sometimes<00:26:13.200><c> you</c><00:26:13.420><c> can</c><00:26:13.720><c> take,</c><00:26:14.099><c> like</c><00:26:14.240><c> we</c><00:26:14.420><c> talked</c><00:26:14.599><c> about</c><00:26:14.799><c> the</c><00:26:15.000><c> word</c>

00:26:15.200 --> 00:26:16.319
before<00:26:15.660><c> in</c><00:26:15.940><c> Malachi,</c>

00:26:16.400 --> 00:26:18.480
and<00:26:16.500><c> you</c><00:26:16.539><c> can</c><00:26:16.700><c> say,</c><00:26:17.099><c> well,</c><00:26:17.099><c> literally</c><00:26:17.440><c> this</c><00:26:17.720><c> means</c><00:26:17.980><c> in</c><00:26:18.299><c> the</c>

00:26:18.480 --> 00:26:18.940
face<00:26:18.740><c> of.</c>

00:26:19.279 --> 00:26:21.720
But<00:26:19.599><c> that's</c><00:26:20.099><c> only</c><00:26:20.339><c> sort</c><00:26:20.539><c> of</c><00:26:20.720><c> an</c><00:26:20.900><c> idiomatic</c><00:26:21.359><c> way.</c>

00:26:21.819 --> 00:26:23.680
Really,<00:26:22.160><c> it</c><00:26:22.339><c> does</c><00:26:22.700><c> mean</c><00:26:23.079><c> before.</c>

00:26:23.759 --> 00:26:25.920
And<00:26:23.859><c> you</c><00:26:24.720><c> can't</c><00:26:25.019><c> change</c><00:26:25.559><c> that.</c>

00:26:25.920 --> 00:26:31.480
But<00:26:26.359><c> in</c><00:26:26.599><c> this</c><00:26:26.880><c> case,</c><00:26:27.380><c> the</c><00:26:27.420><c> word</c><00:26:27.640><c> East,</c><00:26:29.980><c> the</c><00:26:30.660><c> Greek</c><00:26:30.960><c> word</c><00:26:31.160><c> East</c>

00:26:31.480 --> 00:26:32.160
is<00:26:31.680><c> different.</c>

00:26:32.359 --> 00:26:33.720
It's<00:26:32.680><c> not</c><00:26:33.079><c> risings</c><00:26:33.359><c> of</c><00:26:33.559><c> a</c><00:26:33.640><c> sun.</c>

00:26:33.759 --> 00:26:37.259

The<00:27:55.940><c> angel</c><00:27:56.519><c> came</c><00:27:56.980><c> with</c><00:27:57.259><c> the</c><00:27:57.579><c> true</c><00:27:57.859><c> truth</c><00:27:58.200><c> to</c><00:27:58.420><c> develop</c><00:27:58.859><c> it</c><00:27:59.099><c> in</c>

00:28:04.759 --> 00:28:11.019
He<00:28:05.119><c> had</c><00:28:05.400><c> the</c><00:28:05.759><c> same</c><00:28:06.279><c> origin</c><00:28:06.980><c> as</c><00:28:08.039><c> the</c><00:28:08.380><c> kings</c><00:28:08.799><c> who</c><00:28:09.059><c> would</c><00:28:09.359><c> come</c><00:28:09.779><c> from</c><00:28:10.259><c> the</c><00:28:10.460><c> rising</c><00:28:10.779><c> of</c>

00:28:11.380 --> 00:28:13.200
Those<00:28:11.579><c> are</c><00:28:11.759><c> the</c><00:28:11.859><c> only</c><00:28:12.119><c> two</c><00:28:12.359><c> places</c><00:28:12.680><c> in</c><00:28:12.880><c> Revelation.</c>

00:28:13.299 --> 00:28:14.559
They<00:28:13.420><c> have</c><00:28:13.599><c> the</c><00:28:13.900><c> same</c><00:28:14.140><c> origin.</c>

00:28:20.000 --> 00:28:25.200
And<00:28:20.160><c> I</c><00:28:20.299><c> think</c><00:28:20.519><c> that's</c><00:28:20.900><c> very</c><00:28:21.980><c> important</c><00:28:22.480><c> to</c><00:28:22.740><c> notice</c><00:28:23.099><c> that</c><00:28:23.779><c> in</c><00:28:24.240><c> Scripture.</c>

00:28:25.880 --> 00:28:31.660
So<00:28:26.180><c> then,</c><00:28:27.539><c> there</c><00:28:27.740><c> is</c><00:28:28.559><c> this</c><00:28:29.039><c> idea</c><00:28:29.460><c> and</c><00:28:29.700><c> this</c><00:28:30.079><c> type</c><00:28:30.539><c> of</c><00:28:31.019><c> the</c><00:28:31.299><c> way</c>

00:28:33.960 --> 00:28:37.099
So<00:28:34.519><c> the</c><00:28:34.839><c> type</c><00:28:35.119><c> is</c><00:28:35.559><c> with</c><00:28:36.119><c> Cyrus.</c>

00:34:09.219 --> 00:34:13.980
So<00:34:09.599><c> John</c><00:34:09.800><c> Baptist</c><00:34:10.159><c> was</c><00:34:10.440><c> to</c><00:34:10.719><c> go</c><00:34:10.900><c> before</c><00:34:11.300><c> to</c><00:34:11.900><c> prepare</c><00:34:12.539><c> a</c><00:34:13.000><c> way</c><00:34:13.380><c> for</c>

00:34:17.139 --> 00:34:21.340
And<00:34:17.199><c> we've</c><00:34:17.460><c> seen</c><00:34:17.679><c> how</c><00:34:18.880><c> John</c><00:34:19.320><c> the</c><00:34:19.539><c> Baptist</c><00:34:19.820><c> came</c><00:34:20.179><c> in</c><00:34:20.360><c> the</c><00:34:20.639><c> spirit</c><00:34:21.039><c> and</c>

00:34:29.019 --> 00:34:33.760
and<00:34:29.739><c> also</c><00:34:30.460><c> prepare</c><00:34:31.019><c> that</c><00:34:31.440><c> way</c><00:34:31.860><c> just</c><00:34:32.360><c> the</c><00:34:32.619><c> same</c><00:34:32.900><c> as</c><00:34:33.280><c> John</c><00:34:33.579><c> the</c>

00:34:33.760 --> 00:34:34.440
Baptist<00:34:34.079><c> did</c>

00:34:34.440 --> 00:34:37.539
and<00:34:34.800><c> to</c><00:34:35.019><c> bring</c><00:34:35.199><c> that</c><00:34:35.739><c> light</c><00:34:36.000><c> to</c><00:34:36.659><c> the</c><00:34:36.780><c> nation</c><00:34:37.039><c> of</c><00:34:37.199><c> Israel.</c>

00:34:37.840 --> 00:34:43.079
So<00:34:38.039><c> we</c><00:34:38.159><c> talked</c><00:34:38.400><c> about</c><00:34:38.639><c> that</c><00:34:38.820><c> yesterday,</c><00:34:39.360><c> how</c><00:34:39.780><c> Elijah</c><00:34:42.579><c> truly</c>

00:34:43.079 --> 00:34:44.079

00:34:44.079 --> 00:34:46.059
and<00:34:44.719><c> restore</c><00:34:45.260><c> all</c><00:34:45.699><c> things.</c>

00:34:46.059 --> 00:34:49.659
Well,<00:34:46.719><c> what</c><00:34:46.900><c> was</c><00:34:47.159><c> the</c><00:34:47.400><c> way</c><00:34:47.860><c> that</c><00:34:48.260><c> was</c><00:34:48.599><c> being</c><00:34:49.059><c> prepared?</c>

00:34:49.920 --> 00:34:52.360
So<00:34:50.119><c> there</c><00:34:50.219><c> is</c><00:34:50.460><c> a</c><00:34:50.699><c> symbolic</c><00:34:51.219><c> way,</c><00:34:51.820><c> isn't</c><00:34:52.079><c> there?</c>

00:34:52.699 --> 00:34:56.300
It's<00:34:53.039><c> the</c><00:34:53.260><c> symbolic</c><00:34:53.840><c> way</c><00:34:54.599><c> to</c><00:34:55.300><c> Zion.</c>

00:34:56.380 --> 00:35:00.480
So<00:34:56.559><c> Jesus</c><00:34:56.920><c> Christ</c><00:34:57.320><c> said,</c><00:34:58.079><c> I</c><00:34:58.380><c> am</c><00:34:58.940><c> the</c><00:34:59.199><c> way,</c><00:34:59.480><c> the</c><00:34:59.760><c> truth,</c><00:35:00.159><c> and</c>

00:35:00.480 --> 00:35:01.059
the<00:35:00.659><c> life.</c>

00:35:01.420 --> 00:35:04.900
No<00:35:01.679><c> man</c><00:35:02.019><c> cometh</c><00:35:02.320><c> unto</c><00:35:02.579><c> the</c><00:35:02.840><c> Father</c><00:35:03.280><c> but</c><00:35:03.960><c> by</c><00:35:04.539><c> me.</c>

00:35:05.019 --> 00:35:12.019
So<00:35:05.219><c> this</c><00:35:05.400><c> is</c><00:35:05.599><c> the</c><00:35:05.840><c> symbolic</c><00:35:06.500><c> way</c><00:35:07.360><c> to</c><00:35:10.000><c> the</c><00:35:10.260><c> Kingdom</c><00:35:10.599><c> of</c><00:35:10.820><c> God.</c>

00:35:16.719 --> 00:35:21.900
And<00:35:17.400><c> John</c><00:35:17.760><c> the</c><00:35:17.940><c> Baptist</c><00:35:18.260><c> then</c><00:35:18.639><c> prepared</c><00:35:19.199><c> that</c><00:35:19.619><c> way</c><00:35:19.960><c> in</c><00:35:20.780><c> Christ's</c><00:35:21.579><c> first</c><00:35:21.739><c> coming.</c>

00:35:21.980 --> 00:35:25.559
Let's<00:35:22.119><c> just</c><00:35:22.360><c> turn</c><00:35:22.480><c> to</c><00:35:22.559><c> Matthew</c><00:35:22.920><c> chapter</c><00:35:23.400><c> 3.</c>

00:35:29.619 --> 00:35:32.059
Matthew<00:35:30.000><c> chapter</c><00:35:30.340><c> 3,</c><00:35:30.739><c> verses</c><00:35:31.039><c> 1</c><00:35:31.440><c> to</c><00:35:31.579><c> 5.</c>

00:35:32.219 --> 00:35:35.960
In<00:35:32.280><c> those</c><00:35:32.659><c> days</c><00:35:32.940><c> came</c><00:35:33.260><c> John</c><00:35:33.559><c> the</c><00:35:33.780><c> Baptist</c><00:35:34.199><c> preaching</c><00:35:35.000><c> in</c><00:35:35.440><c> the</c><00:35:35.599><c> wilderness.</c>

00:35:36.059 --> 00:35:40.300
So<00:35:36.320><c> John</c><00:35:36.900><c> prepared</c><00:35:37.539><c> a</c><00:35:37.780><c> way</c><00:35:37.980><c> in</c><00:35:38.559><c> the</c><00:35:38.880><c> wilderness</c><00:35:39.460><c> for</c><00:35:39.980><c> the</c><00:35:40.139><c> Lord</c>

Jesus<00:35:40.659><c> Christ.</c>

00:35:41.460 --> 00:35:44.360
In<00:35:41.659><c> those</c><00:35:41.940><c> days</c><00:35:42.179><c> came</c><00:35:42.400><c> John</c><00:35:42.659><c> the</c><00:35:43.039><c> Baptist</c><00:35:43.340><c> preaching</c><00:35:43.800><c> in</c><00:35:44.199><c> the</c>

00:35:49.099 --> 00:35:51.820
For<00:35:49.300><c> this</c><00:35:49.539><c> is</c><00:35:49.719><c> he</c><00:35:49.820><c> that</c><00:35:49.960><c> was</c><00:35:50.280><c> spoken</c><00:35:50.679><c> of</c><00:35:51.019><c> by</c><00:35:51.340><c> the</c><00:35:51.480><c> prophet</c>

00:35:51.820 --> 00:35:52.820
Isaiah,<00:35:52.400><c> saying,</c>

00:35:53.179 --> 00:35:57.440
The<00:35:53.300><c> voice</c><00:35:53.699><c> of</c><00:35:53.940><c> one</c><00:35:54.179><c> crying</c><00:35:54.900><c> in</c><00:35:55.860><c> the</c><00:35:56.139><c> wilderness,</c><00:35:56.820><c> prepare</c><00:35:57.199><c> ye</c>

00:36:00.219 --> 00:36:02.500
So<00:36:00.519><c> John</c><00:36:00.820><c> came</c><00:36:01.219><c> to</c><00:36:01.619><c> prepare</c><00:36:02.119><c> the</c><00:36:02.340><c> way.</c>

00:36:02.500 --> 00:36:07.000

00:36:07.460 --> 00:36:11.579
And<00:36:07.699><c> really</c><00:36:07.920><c> he</c><00:36:08.059><c> came</c><00:36:08.400><c> in</c><00:36:08.619><c> the</c><00:36:08.920><c> spirit</c><00:36:09.219><c> of</c><00:36:09.579><c> Isaiah</c><00:36:10.079><c> chapter</c><00:36:11.019><c> 40.</c>

00:36:11.579 --> 00:36:16.860
But<00:36:12.059><c> although</c><00:36:12.539><c> Isaiah</c><00:36:13.019><c> chapter</c><00:36:13.420><c> 40</c><00:36:13.900><c> applies</c><00:36:14.880><c> to</c><00:36:15.480><c> John</c><00:36:15.719><c> the</c><00:36:15.900><c> Baptist,</c>

00:36:20.400 --> 00:36:24.760
And<00:36:20.559><c> it</c><00:36:20.760><c> really</c><00:36:21.079><c> tells</c><00:36:21.400><c> us</c><00:36:21.719><c> maybe</c><00:36:22.000><c> some</c><00:36:22.239><c> of</c><00:36:22.380><c> the</c><00:36:22.539><c> words</c><00:36:22.900><c> and</c><00:36:23.320><c> the</c><00:36:23.739><c> spirit</c><00:36:24.039><c> of</c>

00:36:34.300 --> 00:36:37.320
So<00:36:34.519><c> Isaiah</c><00:36:34.800><c> says,</c><00:36:35.460><c> Comfort</c><00:36:35.599><c> ye,</c><00:36:35.820><c> comfort</c><00:36:36.099><c> ye</c><00:36:36.300><c> my</c><00:36:36.519><c> people,</c>

00:37:12.659 --> 00:37:17.260
And<00:37:12.920><c> we</c><00:37:13.019><c> can</c><00:37:13.219><c> see</c><00:37:13.679><c> from</c><00:37:13.960><c> those</c><00:37:14.219><c> words</c><00:37:14.440><c> that</c><00:37:14.599><c> it</c><00:37:14.780><c> is</c><00:37:14.940><c> talking</c><00:37:15.239><c> about</c><00:37:15.780><c> the</c><00:37:16.199><c> second</c><00:37:16.400><c> coming</c><00:37:16.639><c> of</c><00:37:16.860><c> Christ,</c>

00:37:17.599 --> 00:37:19.840
and<00:37:17.699><c> of</c><00:37:17.840><c> course</c><00:37:18.019><c> in</c><00:37:18.199><c> verse</c><00:37:18.420><c> 10,</c><00:37:18.820><c> Behold</c><00:37:19.039><c> the</c><00:37:19.139><c> Lord</c><00:37:19.400><c> God</c><00:37:19.619><c> will</c>

00:37:19.840 --> 00:37:20.920
come<00:37:20.019><c> with</c><00:37:20.340><c> strong</c><00:37:20.559><c> hand,</c>

00:37:21.199 --> 00:37:24.679
and<00:37:21.400><c> his</c><00:37:21.639><c> arm</c><00:37:21.880><c> shall</c><00:37:22.179><c> rule</c><00:37:22.480><c> for</c><00:37:22.760><c> him,</c><00:37:23.360><c> behold</c><00:37:23.760><c> his</c><00:37:24.079><c> reward</c><00:37:24.460><c> is</c>

00:37:24.679 --> 00:37:25.019
with<00:37:24.860><c> him.</c>

00:37:25.179 --> 00:37:28.599
So<00:37:25.400><c> it's</c><00:37:25.559><c> at</c><00:37:25.699><c> that</c><00:37:25.920><c> time</c><00:37:26.139><c> when</c><00:37:26.400><c> Christ</c><00:37:26.780><c> will</c><00:37:27.099><c> come</c><00:37:27.500><c> as</c><00:37:27.920><c> a</c><00:37:28.159><c> king</c>

to<00:37:29.320><c> rule</c><00:37:29.780><c> in</c><00:37:30.739><c> Zion.</c>

00:37:31.059 --> 00:37:35.579
So<00:37:31.980><c> we</c><00:37:32.820><c> can</c><00:37:33.139><c> see</c><00:37:33.380><c> then</c><00:37:33.619><c> how</c><00:37:33.820><c> the</c><00:37:33.980><c> Lord</c><00:37:34.260><c> Jesus</c><00:37:34.639><c> Christ</c><00:37:34.980><c> is</c><00:37:35.239><c> like</c>

00:37:35.579 --> 00:37:38.239
a<00:37:35.860><c> sun</c><00:37:36.260><c> that</c><00:37:37.059><c> rises</c><00:37:37.679><c> up,</c>

00:37:38.440 --> 00:37:41.039
and<00:37:38.539><c> that's</c><00:37:38.880><c> the</c><00:37:39.000><c> biblical</c><00:37:39.400><c> symbology</c><00:37:40.159><c> of</c><00:37:40.400><c> his</c><00:37:40.599><c> coming,</c><00:37:40.880><c> as</c>

00:37:41.039 --> 00:37:43.659
the<00:37:41.199><c> sun</c><00:37:41.679><c> rises</c><00:37:42.360><c> in</c><00:37:43.000><c> the</c><00:37:43.280><c> east.</c>

00:37:43.980 --> 00:37:48.480
But<00:37:44.159><c> then</c><00:37:44.420><c> why</c><00:37:44.619><c> does</c><00:37:44.820><c> it</c><00:37:45.059><c> say</c><00:37:45.260><c> the</c><00:37:45.579><c> kings</c><00:37:46.280><c> of</c><00:37:46.760><c> the</c><00:37:46.960><c> east,</c><00:37:47.559><c> plural,</c><00:37:48.260><c> if</c>

00:37:48.480 --> 00:37:49.460
that's<00:37:48.880><c> the</c><00:37:49.079><c> case?</c>

00:37:49.960 --> 00:37:55.019
Well,<00:37:50.159><c> Matthew</c><00:37:50.460><c> chapter</c><00:37:50.860><c> 13</c><00:37:51.340><c> and</c><00:37:51.539><c> verse</c><00:37:52.139><c> 43,</c><00:37:54.320><c> which</c><00:37:54.619><c> is</c><00:37:54.880><c> the</c>

00:37:55.019 --> 00:37:56.300
words<00:37:55.179><c> of</c><00:37:55.340><c> the</c><00:37:55.460><c> Lord</c><00:37:55.579><c> Jesus</c><00:37:55.960><c> Christ,</c>

00:37:56.539 --> 00:37:59.460
I<00:37:56.639><c> think</c><00:37:56.780><c> really</c><00:37:57.059><c> gives</c><00:37:57.239><c> us</c><00:37:57.480><c> the</c><00:37:57.699><c> answer</c><00:37:58.179><c> to</c><00:37:58.659><c> that</c><00:37:58.980><c> question.</c>

00:37:59.460 --> 00:38:04.960
So<00:38:00.019><c> Jesus</c><00:38:00.360><c> says</c><00:38:00.840><c> in</c><00:38:01.000><c> Matthew</c><00:38:01.380><c> chapter</c><00:38:01.760><c> 13</c><00:38:02.440><c> and</c><00:38:02.780><c> verse</c><00:38:03.420><c> 43,</c>

00:38:05.059 --> 00:38:10.920
Then<00:38:05.300><c> shall</c><00:38:05.719><c> the</c><00:38:06.039><c> righteous</c><00:38:06.599><c> shine</c><00:38:07.440><c> forth</c><00:38:08.000><c> as</c><00:38:08.539><c> the</c><00:38:08.920><c> sun</c><00:38:09.300><c> in</c><00:38:09.920><c> the</c><00:38:10.159><c> kingdom</c><00:38:10.579><c> of</c>

00:38:10.920 --> 00:38:12.179
their<00:38:11.139><c> father,</c>

00:38:12.199 --> 00:38:14.880
who<00:38:12.360><c> hath</c><00:38:12.679><c> ears</c><00:38:13.039><c> to</c><00:38:13.340><c> hear,</c><00:38:13.960><c> let</c><00:38:14.239><c> him</c><00:38:14.519><c> hear.</c>

00:38:15.139 --> 00:38:18.300
Then<00:38:15.360><c> shall</c><00:38:15.619><c> the</c><00:38:15.880><c> righteous</c><00:38:16.480><c> shine</c><00:38:17.139><c> forth</c><00:38:17.579><c> as</c><00:38:17.940><c> the</c><00:38:18.119><c> sun,</c>

00:38:18.320 --> 00:38:21.380
because<00:38:18.659><c> they</c><00:38:19.019><c> will</c><00:38:19.219><c> be</c><00:38:19.420><c> kings</c><00:38:19.860><c> and</c><00:38:20.340><c> priests,</c><00:38:20.780><c> and</c><00:38:21.000><c> they</c><00:38:21.179><c> will</c>

00:38:21.380 --> 00:38:21.980
rule<00:38:21.539><c> with</c><00:38:21.780><c> him.</c>

00:38:22.139 --> 00:38:24.820
So<00:38:22.360><c> it</c><00:38:22.460><c> takes</c><00:38:22.699><c> that</c><00:38:23.019><c> figure</c><00:38:23.239><c> in</c><00:38:23.400><c> Daniel</c><00:38:23.679><c> chapter</c><00:38:23.980><c> 12,</c><00:38:24.340><c> doesn't</c><00:38:24.519><c> it?</c>

00:38:24.860 --> 00:38:27.460
And<00:38:25.039><c> it</c><00:38:25.219><c> says</c><00:38:25.420><c> that</c><00:38:25.639><c> the</c><00:38:25.820><c> wise</c><00:38:25.960><c> shall</c><00:38:26.199><c> shine</c><00:38:26.480><c> as</c><00:38:26.679><c> the</c><00:38:26.860><c> brightness</c><00:38:27.099><c> of</c><00:38:27.320><c> the</c>

firmament<00:38:27.760><c> and</c><00:38:27.920><c> as</c><00:38:28.159><c> the</c><00:38:28.440><c> stars.</c>

00:38:28.840 --> 00:38:31.500
And<00:38:29.260><c> that's</c><00:38:29.599><c> the</c><00:38:29.780><c> same</c><00:38:30.019><c> type</c><00:38:30.300><c> of</c><00:38:30.559><c> idea,</c><00:38:30.920><c> that</c><00:38:31.039><c> they</c><00:38:31.239><c> would</c>

00:38:31.500 --> 00:38:35.139
have<00:38:31.659><c> that</c><00:38:31.940><c> same</c><00:38:34.059><c> shine,</c>

00:38:35.219 --> 00:38:40.820
that<00:38:35.440><c> same</c><00:38:35.820><c> glory</c><00:38:36.440><c> as</c><00:38:37.059><c> the</c><00:38:37.260><c> Lord</c><00:38:37.440><c> Jesus</c><00:38:37.880><c> Christ</c><00:38:38.320><c> would</c><00:38:39.059><c> to</c><00:38:40.260><c> the</c><00:38:40.599><c> earth.</c>

00:38:40.960 --> 00:38:44.280
So<00:38:41.039><c> the</c><00:38:41.179><c> righteous</c><00:38:41.679><c> shall</c><00:38:42.079><c> shine</c><00:38:42.539><c> forth</c><00:38:42.840><c> as</c><00:38:43.239><c> the</c><00:38:43.480><c> sun</c><00:38:43.719><c> in</c><00:38:44.139><c> the</c>

00:38:44.280 --> 00:38:45.039
kingdom<00:38:44.460><c> of</c><00:38:44.679><c> the</c><00:38:44.800><c> father.</c>

00:38:45.400 --> 00:38:49.260
And<00:38:45.719><c> they</c><00:38:46.039><c> have</c><00:38:46.239><c> the</c><00:38:46.559><c> same</c><00:38:46.900><c> origin</c><00:38:47.559><c> from</c><00:38:48.320><c> the</c><00:38:48.539><c> rising</c><00:38:48.860><c> of</c><00:38:49.039><c> the</c>

00:38:49.260 --> 00:38:50.659
sun<00:38:49.440><c> as</c><00:38:49.699><c> that</c><00:38:50.000><c> angel</c><00:38:50.300><c> had</c>

00:38:50.659 --> 00:38:54.380
that<00:38:51.179><c> came</c><00:38:51.599><c> to</c><00:38:52.320><c> seal</c><00:38:52.559><c> them</c><00:38:53.079><c> in</c><00:38:53.820><c> the</c><00:38:54.099><c> forehead.</c>

00:38:54.460 --> 00:38:57.599
So<00:38:54.679><c> it</c><00:38:54.800><c> really</c><00:38:55.079><c> is</c><00:38:55.519><c> a</c><00:38:55.719><c> very</c><00:38:56.179><c> beautiful</c><00:38:56.719><c> figure.</c>

00:39:00.840 --> 00:39:03.619
Also<00:39:01.400><c> there's</c><00:39:01.780><c> Isaiah</c><00:39:02.059><c> 41.</c>

00:39:03.880 --> 00:39:05.340
I<00:39:04.039><c> think</c><00:39:04.579><c> we</c><00:39:04.699><c> can</c><00:39:04.900><c> turn</c><00:39:05.039><c> to</c><00:39:05.219><c> that.</c>

00:39:05.500 --> 00:39:12.159

This<00:46:29.239><c> morning</c><00:46:29.460><c> we</c><00:46:29.579><c> get</c><00:46:29.739><c> to</c><00:46:29.880><c> do</c><00:46:29.980><c> some</c><00:46:30.219><c> good</c><00:46:30.460><c> Christadelfian</c><00:46:31.000><c> turning</c><00:46:31.280><c> up</c><00:46:31.519><c> passages.</c>

00:46:50.179 --> 00:46:52.280
That<00:46:50.400><c> was</c><00:46:50.679><c> the</c><00:46:50.860><c> thing</c><00:46:51.039><c> that</c><00:46:51.260><c> really</c><00:46:51.739><c> they</c><00:46:52.099><c> thought,</c>

00:46:54.400 --> 00:46:56.300

00:47:26.019 --> 00:47:29.619

and<00:49:59.019><c> come</c><00:49:59.460><c> to</c><00:49:59.719><c> Zion</c><00:50:00.019><c> to</c><00:50:00.440><c> the</c><00:50:00.679><c> truth</c><00:50:01.059><c> and</c><00:50:01.840><c> enter</c><00:50:02.239><c> into</c><00:50:02.780><c> the</c><00:50:03.000><c> kingdom</c><00:50:03.199><c> of</c><00:50:03.440><c> God.</c>

00:50:04.059 --> 00:50:09.780
So<00:50:04.280><c> that's</c><00:50:04.780><c> the</c><00:50:04.940><c> way</c><00:50:05.480><c> then</c><00:50:06.360><c> that</c><00:50:07.039><c> we're</c><00:50:07.400><c> waiting</c><00:50:07.739><c> for</c><00:50:08.019><c> that</c><00:50:08.380><c> stumbling</c><00:50:08.760><c> stone</c><00:50:09.280><c> to</c>

00:50:09.780 --> 00:50:11.519
be<00:50:10.280><c> removed.</c>

00:50:11.780 --> 00:50:15.739
And<00:50:11.980><c> that</c><00:50:12.260><c> way,</c><00:50:12.500><c> it</c><00:50:12.719><c> says,</c><00:50:13.000><c> is</c><00:50:13.300><c> prepared</c><00:50:13.880><c> in</c><00:50:14.519><c> the</c><00:50:14.739><c> wilderness</c>

00:50:15.760 --> 00:50:19.739
where<00:50:16.159><c> we</c><00:50:16.579><c> believe</c><00:50:16.860><c> the</c><00:50:17.039><c> Lord</c><00:50:17.199><c> Jesus</c><00:50:17.599><c> Christ</c><00:50:18.099><c> will</c><00:50:18.559><c> come</c><00:50:18.880><c> from.</c>

00:50:20.199 --> 00:50:22.500
There's<00:50:20.480><c> a</c><00:50:20.639><c> picture</c><00:50:20.840><c> of</c><00:50:21.019><c> the</c><00:50:21.199><c> Sinai</c><00:50:21.519><c> Desert.</c>

00:50:22.679 --> 00:50:28.019
It's<00:50:23.400><c> a</c><00:50:23.639><c> very</c><00:50:24.380><c> beautiful</c><00:50:25.360><c> but</c><00:50:26.480><c> very</c><00:50:27.099><c> rugged</c><00:50:27.539><c> place.</c>

00:50:28.019 --> 00:50:31.880
I<00:50:28.460><c> don't</c><00:50:28.699><c> think</c><00:50:28.840><c> any</c><00:50:29.019><c> of</c><00:50:29.099><c> us</c><00:50:29.199><c> would</c><00:50:29.380><c> really</c><00:50:29.579><c> want</c><00:50:29.719><c> to</c><00:50:29.900><c> spend</c><00:50:30.079><c> too</c><00:50:30.420><c> much</c><00:50:30.719><c> time</c><00:50:31.500><c> in</c>

00:50:31.880 --> 00:50:32.420
the<00:50:32.139><c> Sinai</c>

00:50:32.420 --> 00:50:33.900
as<00:50:32.659><c> the</c><00:50:32.820><c> children</c><00:50:33.079><c> of</c><00:50:33.239><c> Israel</c><00:50:33.539><c> did.</c>

00:50:34.380 --> 00:50:38.519
This<00:50:34.739><c> was</c><00:50:35.039><c> taken</c><00:50:35.300><c> by</c><00:50:35.599><c> a</c><00:50:35.719><c> famous</c><00:50:36.320><c> Israeli</c><00:50:37.519><c> photographer.</c>

00:50:38.940 --> 00:50:41.820
His<00:50:38.980><c> name</c><00:50:39.139><c> is</c><00:50:39.320><c> Neil</c><00:50:39.599><c> Folberg,</c><00:50:40.679><c> and</c><00:50:40.900><c> he</c><00:50:41.139><c> spent</c><00:50:41.260><c> actually</c><00:50:41.639><c> quite</c>

00:50:41.820 --> 00:50:43.679
a<00:50:41.920><c> bit</c><00:50:42.059><c> of</c><00:50:42.199><c> time</c><00:50:42.360><c> in</c><00:50:42.480><c> the</c><00:50:42.719><c> Sinai.</c>

00:50:43.699 --> 00:50:46.800
And<00:50:43.940><c> it's</c><00:50:44.039><c> very</c><00:50:44.320><c> interesting</c><00:50:44.840><c> what</c><00:50:45.019><c> he</c><00:50:45.219><c> had</c><00:50:45.380><c> to</c><00:50:45.760><c> say</c><00:50:46.179><c> about</c>

00:50:46.800 --> 00:50:49.500
the<00:50:47.179><c> Sinai</c><00:50:47.579><c> having</c><00:50:47.880><c> spent</c><00:50:48.380><c> some</c><00:50:48.860><c> time</c><00:50:49.139><c> there.</c>

00:50:50.000 --> 00:50:54.059
He<00:50:50.199><c> says,</c><00:50:50.500><c> the</c><00:50:50.599><c> desert</c><00:50:51.059><c> instills</c><00:50:51.920><c> a</c><00:50:52.239><c> sense</c><00:50:52.619><c> of</c><00:50:53.099><c> humility.</c>

00:50:54.300 --> 00:50:57.880
Perhaps<00:50:54.900><c> that</c><00:50:55.139><c> is</c><00:50:55.260><c> why</c><00:50:55.500><c> most</c><00:50:55.800><c> people</c><00:50:56.099><c> prefer</c><00:50:56.519><c> a</c><00:50:56.719><c> more</c><00:50:57.039><c> urban</c><00:50:57.360><c> environment.</c>

00:50:58.039 --> 00:51:01.059
God<00:50:58.320><c> knew</c><00:50:58.619><c> what</c><00:50:58.820><c> he</c><00:50:59.039><c> was</c><00:50:59.219><c> doing</c><00:50:59.639><c> when</c><00:51:00.079><c> he</c><00:51:00.320><c> commanded</c><00:51:00.659><c> Moses</c>

00:51:01.059 --> 00:51:01.860
and<00:51:01.260><c> the</c><00:51:01.500><c> Israelites</c>

00:51:01.860 --> 00:51:05.079
to<00:51:02.199><c> spend</c><00:51:02.440><c> 40</c><00:51:02.820><c> years</c><00:51:03.260><c> wandering</c><00:51:03.739><c> in</c><00:51:04.219><c> Sinai.</c>

00:51:05.159 --> 00:51:07.840
They<00:51:05.340><c> had</c><00:51:05.539><c> a</c><00:51:05.619><c> lot</c><00:51:05.840><c> of</c><00:51:06.119><c> thinking</c><00:51:06.539><c> to</c><00:51:06.980><c> do.</c>

00:51:07.920 --> 00:51:12.320
Every<00:51:08.320><c> generation,</c><00:51:08.960><c> I</c><00:51:09.300><c> say,</c><00:51:09.739><c> should</c><00:51:09.940><c> spend</c><00:51:10.340><c> some</c><00:51:10.760><c> time</c><00:51:11.000><c> in</c><00:51:11.340><c> Sinai.</c>

00:51:12.420 --> 00:51:15.739
Our<00:51:12.699><c> sages</c><00:51:13.059><c> teach</c><00:51:13.460><c> that</c><00:51:13.639><c> a</c><00:51:13.800><c> man</c><00:51:13.980><c> should</c><00:51:14.239><c> make</c><00:51:14.460><c> himself</c><00:51:14.900><c> like</c><00:51:15.199><c> a</c><00:51:15.380><c> desert,</c>

00:51:16.159 --> 00:51:19.239
humble<00:51:16.539><c> and</c><00:51:16.960><c> receptive</c><00:51:17.519><c> to</c><00:51:17.920><c> guidance</c><00:51:18.360><c> from</c><00:51:18.860><c> above.</c>

00:51:19.519 --> 00:51:21.460
And<00:51:19.699><c> that's</c><00:51:19.940><c> the</c><00:51:20.159><c> heart</c><00:51:20.360><c> that</c><00:51:20.519><c> we</c><00:51:20.719><c> have</c><00:51:21.019><c> to</c><00:51:21.199><c> have.</c>

00:51:21.460 --> 00:51:25.579
And<00:51:21.780><c> that</c><00:51:22.119><c> heart</c><00:51:22.360><c> is</c><00:51:23.019><c> often</c><00:51:23.360><c> developed</c><00:51:23.920><c> on</c><00:51:24.579><c> our</c><00:51:25.039><c> wilderness</c>

00:51:25.579 --> 00:51:26.760
journey<00:51:26.099><c> to</c><00:51:26.440><c> Zion.</c>

00:51:27.000 --> 00:51:30.519
And<00:51:27.199><c> that's</c><00:51:27.420><c> why</c><00:51:27.679><c> the</c><00:51:27.920><c> way</c><00:51:28.260><c> goes</c><00:51:28.920><c> through</c><00:51:29.500><c> the</c><00:51:30.019><c> wilderness.</c>

00:51:30.780 --> 00:51:33.679
So<00:51:31.000><c> there's</c><00:51:31.420><c> another</c><00:51:31.619><c> picture</c><00:51:32.019><c> of</c><00:51:32.300><c> the</c><00:51:32.579><c> Sinai.</c>

00:51:35.320 --> 00:51:38.300
And<00:51:35.440><c> this</c><00:51:35.699><c> is</c><00:51:35.900><c> Isaiah</c><00:51:36.219><c> 40</c><00:51:36.579><c> verse</c><00:51:36.840><c> 3</c><00:51:37.400><c> that</c><00:51:37.719><c> we</c><00:51:37.900><c> already</c><00:51:38.099><c> looked</c>

00:51:38.300 --> 00:51:41.480
at,<00:51:38.539><c> but</c><00:51:38.760><c> from</c><00:51:39.079><c> the</c><00:51:39.340><c> JPS</c><00:51:40.219><c> publication.</c>

00:51:41.739 --> 00:51:44.219
And<00:51:42.079><c> it</c><00:51:42.239><c> brings</c><00:51:42.500><c> out</c><00:51:42.760><c> the</c><00:51:42.900><c> sense</c><00:51:43.059><c> quite</c><00:51:43.340><c> beautifully.</c>

00:51:44.280 --> 00:51:48.260
A<00:51:44.420><c> voice</c><00:51:44.920><c> rings</c><00:51:45.400><c> out,</c><00:51:46.039><c> clear</c><00:51:46.539><c> in</c><00:51:46.820><c> the</c><00:51:47.019><c> desert,</c><00:51:47.500><c> a</c><00:51:47.699><c> road</c><00:51:48.000><c> for</c>

00:51:48.260 --> 00:51:48.940
the<00:51:48.440><c> Lord.</c>

00:51:48.940 --> 00:51:53.960
Level<00:51:49.719><c> in</c><00:51:50.099><c> the</c><00:51:50.340><c> wilderness</c><00:51:50.880><c> a</c><00:51:51.340><c> highway</c><00:51:51.840><c> for</c><00:51:52.599><c> our</c><00:51:53.039><c> God.</c>

00:51:54.360 --> 00:51:59.099

00:51:59.139 --> 00:52:01.539
as<00:51:59.440><c> Christ</c><00:51:59.699><c> will</c><00:51:59.960><c> also</c><00:52:00.300><c> make</c><00:52:00.440><c> that</c><00:52:00.679><c> journey</c><00:52:00.920><c> to</c><00:52:01.199><c> Zion,</c>

00:52:01.860 --> 00:52:06.780
it<00:52:02.000><c> says,</c><00:52:02.239><c> cast</c><00:52:02.800><c> up</c><00:52:03.119><c> a</c><00:52:03.380><c> highway</c><00:52:03.820><c> for</c><00:52:04.480><c> him</c><00:52:05.059><c> who</c><00:52:05.639><c> rideth</c><00:52:06.139><c> through</c>

the<00:52:07.300><c> deserts.</c>

00:52:07.860 --> 00:52:08.699
Isn't<00:52:08.059><c> that</c><00:52:08.280><c> beautiful?</c>

00:52:09.119 --> 00:52:12.920
So<00:52:09.500><c> there's</c><00:52:09.760><c> going</c><00:52:09.880><c> to</c><00:52:10.099><c> be</c><00:52:10.440><c> a</c><00:52:10.619><c> way</c><00:52:10.960><c> then</c><00:52:11.760><c> to</c><00:52:12.480><c> Zion.</c>

00:52:12.920 --> 00:52:18.880
And<00:52:13.659><c> it's</c><00:52:13.940><c> going</c><00:52:14.239><c> to</c><00:52:14.599><c> be</c><00:52:15.300><c> a</c><00:52:16.380><c> literal</c><00:52:17.500><c> highway,</c>

00:52:19.780 --> 00:52:24.199
as<00:52:20.039><c> well</c><00:52:20.400><c> as</c><00:52:20.800><c> a</c><00:52:21.099><c> figurative</c><00:52:21.460><c> one</c><00:52:21.860><c> with</c><00:52:23.019><c> figurative</c><00:52:23.619><c> lessons</c><00:52:23.920><c> now.</c>

00:52:24.219 --> 00:52:29.739
If<00:52:24.300><c> I</c><00:52:24.440><c> could</c><00:52:24.699><c> find</c><00:52:25.500><c> my</c><00:52:26.860><c> other</c><00:52:27.119><c> notes</c><00:52:27.380><c> at</c><00:52:27.579><c> this</c><00:52:27.800><c> point,</c><00:52:29.000><c> it</c><00:52:29.360><c> would</c><00:52:29.559><c> be</c>

00:52:29.739 --> 00:52:30.900
quite<00:52:29.920><c> useful.</c>

00:52:32.539 --> 00:52:35.199
Oh,<00:52:32.820><c> here</c><00:52:33.000><c> they</c><00:52:33.179><c> are,</c><00:52:33.880><c> hiding</c><00:52:34.119><c> away.</c>

00:52:35.739 --> 00:52:39.360
Okay,<00:52:36.500><c> so</c><00:52:36.679><c> let's</c><00:52:36.780><c> look</c><00:52:37.019><c> at</c><00:52:37.159><c> Isaiah</c><00:52:37.539><c> chapter</c><00:52:37.920><c> 19.</c>

00:52:48.719 --> 00:52:53.699
So<00:52:48.900><c> Isaiah</c><00:52:49.239><c> chapter</c><00:52:49.619><c> 19</c><00:52:50.539><c> describes</c><00:52:51.559><c> for</c><00:52:51.840><c> us</c><00:52:52.119><c> this</c><00:52:52.619><c> literal</c><00:52:53.039><c> highway</c>

00:52:53.699 --> 00:52:57.179
that<00:52:54.260><c> will</c><00:52:54.519><c> be</c><00:52:54.780><c> there</c><00:52:55.039><c> at</c><00:52:55.380><c> the</c><00:52:55.579><c> time</c><00:52:55.840><c> of</c><00:52:56.119><c> the</c><00:52:56.280><c> kingdom.</c>

00:52:57.400 --> 00:53:01.500
So<00:52:58.059><c> Isaiah</c><00:52:58.360><c> 19</c><00:52:59.000><c> and</c><00:52:59.300><c> verse</c><00:52:59.940><c> 22.</c>

00:53:02.619 --> 00:53:06.559
The<00:53:03.119><c> Lord</c><00:53:03.400><c> shall</c><00:53:03.760><c> smite</c><00:53:04.139><c> Egypt.</c><00:53:04.800><c> He</c><00:53:04.960><c> shall</c><00:53:05.260><c> smite</c><00:53:05.820><c> and</c><00:53:06.059><c> heal</c><00:53:06.239><c> it.</c>

00:53:06.840 --> 00:53:08.599
So<00:53:07.059><c> Egypt's</c><00:53:07.420><c> going</c><00:53:07.500><c> to</c><00:53:07.599><c> be</c><00:53:07.699><c> one</c><00:53:07.880><c> of</c><00:53:07.960><c> those</c><00:53:08.179><c> countries</c>

00:53:08.599 --> 00:53:11.880
that's<00:53:08.980><c> going</c><00:53:09.099><c> to</c><00:53:09.219><c> come</c><00:53:09.480><c> under</c><00:53:09.820><c> the</c><00:53:10.119><c> rule</c><00:53:10.519><c> of</c><00:53:10.980><c> the</c><00:53:11.099><c> nation</c><00:53:11.360><c> of</c><00:53:11.659><c> Israel,</c>

00:53:11.900 --> 00:53:14.440
under<00:53:12.159><c> the</c><00:53:12.380><c> rule</c><00:53:12.539><c> of</c><00:53:12.699><c> the</c><00:53:12.840><c> Lord</c><00:53:12.980><c> Jesus</c><00:53:13.360><c> Christ.</c>

00:53:14.539 --> 00:53:17.280
He<00:53:14.880><c> shall</c><00:53:15.059><c> smite</c><00:53:15.460><c> and</c><00:53:15.639><c> heal</c><00:53:15.820><c> Egypt,</c><00:53:16.320><c> and</c><00:53:16.380><c> they</c><00:53:16.619><c> shall</c><00:53:16.800><c> return</c>

00:53:17.280 --> 00:53:18.440
even<00:53:17.639><c> to</c><00:53:17.940><c> the</c><00:53:18.119><c> Lord.</c>

00:53:18.699 --> 00:53:21.079
And<00:53:18.920><c> he</c><00:53:19.059><c> shall</c><00:53:19.199><c> be</c><00:53:19.460><c> entreated</c><00:53:19.780><c> of</c><00:53:19.940><c> them</c><00:53:20.159><c> and</c><00:53:20.340><c> shall</c><00:53:20.579><c> heal</c><00:53:20.820><c> them.</c>

00:53:21.079 --> 00:53:25.760
In<00:53:21.280><c> that</c><00:53:21.599><c> day</c><00:53:22.179><c> there</c><00:53:22.699><c> shall</c><00:53:22.940><c> be</c><00:53:23.219><c> a</c><00:53:23.460><c> highway</c><00:53:23.900><c> out</c><00:53:24.320><c> of</c><00:53:24.500><c> Egypt</c><00:53:24.840><c> to</c><00:53:25.159><c> Assyria,</c>

00:53:26.119 --> 00:53:29.579
and<00:53:26.280><c> the</c><00:53:26.480><c> Assyrians</c><00:53:26.860><c> shall</c><00:53:27.079><c> come</c><00:53:27.320><c> into</c><00:53:27.539><c> Egypt</c><00:53:27.960><c> and</c><00:53:28.099><c> the</c><00:53:28.300><c> Egyptians</c><00:53:28.559><c> into</c><00:53:29.000><c> Assyria,</c>

00:53:29.579 --> 00:53:32.940
and<00:53:29.639><c> the</c><00:53:29.840><c> Egyptians</c><00:53:30.260><c> shall</c><00:53:30.619><c> serve</c><00:53:31.320><c> with</c><00:53:32.019><c> the</c><00:53:32.300><c> Assyrians.</c>

00:53:33.420 --> 00:53:36.360
In<00:53:33.679><c> that</c><00:53:33.940><c> day</c><00:53:34.139><c> shall</c><00:53:34.380><c> Israel</c><00:53:34.780><c> be</c><00:53:34.960><c> the</c><00:53:35.199><c> third</c><00:53:35.440><c> with</c><00:53:35.619><c> Egypt</c><00:53:36.099><c> and</c>

00:53:36.360 --> 00:53:37.059
with<00:53:36.599><c> Assyria,</c>

00:53:37.380 --> 00:53:41.500
even<00:53:37.940><c> a</c><00:53:38.539><c> blessing</c><00:53:39.019><c> in</c><00:53:39.579><c> the</c><00:53:39.739><c> midst</c><00:53:40.039><c> of</c><00:53:40.320><c> the</c><00:53:40.500><c> land.</c>

00:53:42.780 --> 00:53:45.780
So<00:53:43.079><c> there's</c><00:53:43.219><c> going</c><00:53:43.340><c> to</c><00:53:43.400><c> be</c><00:53:43.559><c> a</c><00:53:43.719><c> highway</c><00:53:44.139><c> from</c><00:53:44.519><c> Egypt</c><00:53:45.000><c> to</c><00:53:45.400><c> Assyria.</c>

00:53:45.820 --> 00:53:49.239
And<00:53:45.960><c> that</c><00:53:46.099><c> highway,</c><00:53:46.579><c> it</c><00:53:46.960><c> won't</c><00:53:47.099><c> go</c><00:53:47.340><c> right</c><00:53:47.639><c> through</c><00:53:47.940><c> the</c><00:53:48.059><c> middle</c><00:53:48.239><c> of</c><00:53:48.420><c> the</c><00:53:48.519><c> land</c><00:53:48.679><c> of</c><00:53:48.920><c> Israel.</c>

00:53:49.519 --> 00:53:51.639
It<00:53:49.619><c> will</c><00:53:49.780><c> go</c><00:53:49.980><c> through</c><00:53:50.159><c> the</c><00:53:50.380><c> wilderness,</c><00:53:50.840><c> and</c><00:53:51.039><c> it</c><00:53:51.239><c> will</c><00:53:51.440><c> then</c>

00:53:51.639 --> 00:53:54.000
go<00:53:51.840><c> up</c><00:53:52.119><c> on</c><00:53:53.179><c> the</c><00:53:53.280><c> east</c><00:53:53.659><c> side</c>

00:53:54.000 --> 00:53:56.760
of<00:53:54.159><c> the</c><00:53:54.280><c> Jordan</c><00:53:54.519><c> River</c><00:53:55.099><c> in</c><00:53:55.539><c> the</c><00:53:55.719><c> route</c><00:53:55.900><c> that</c><00:53:56.400><c> there</c><00:53:56.559><c> used</c><00:53:56.699><c> to</c>

00:53:56.760 --> 00:53:58.280
be<00:53:56.900><c> an</c><00:53:57.039><c> ancient</c><00:53:57.260><c> highway</c><00:53:57.599><c> that</c><00:53:57.900><c> way.</c>

00:53:58.739 --> 00:54:01.300
I<00:53:59.179><c> think</c><00:53:59.599><c> Israel</c><00:53:59.920><c> wanted</c><00:54:00.199><c> to</c><00:54:00.440><c> travel</c><00:54:00.679><c> on</c><00:54:00.820><c> it,</c><00:54:00.960><c> didn't</c><00:54:01.099><c> they?</c>

00:54:01.320 --> 00:54:03.219
And<00:54:01.500><c> they</c><00:54:01.619><c> weren't</c><00:54:01.840><c> allowed</c><00:54:02.199><c> to.</c>

00:54:03.480 --> 00:54:06.940
So<00:54:03.639><c> there's</c><00:54:03.699><c> going</c><00:54:03.820><c> to</c><00:54:03.860><c> be</c><00:54:04.019><c> a</c><00:54:04.139><c> highway</c><00:54:04.340><c> that</c><00:54:04.539><c> goes</c><00:54:04.760><c> up</c><00:54:05.239><c> that</c><00:54:05.500><c> way</c><00:54:05.760><c> to</c><00:54:05.940><c> Syria.</c>

00:54:07.119 --> 00:54:10.000
And<00:54:07.239><c> that</c><00:54:07.719><c> way</c><00:54:07.980><c> the</c><00:54:08.280><c> Egyptians</c><00:54:08.639><c> and</c><00:54:08.840><c> the</c><00:54:09.019><c> Assyrians</c><00:54:09.260><c> can</c><00:54:09.539><c> go</c><00:54:09.780><c> up.</c>

00:54:10.119 --> 00:54:13.340
And<00:54:10.239><c> actually</c><00:54:10.739><c> the</c><00:54:11.079><c> purpose</c><00:54:11.940><c> of</c><00:54:12.139><c> it</c><00:54:12.300><c> is</c><00:54:12.420><c> so</c><00:54:12.519><c> they</c><00:54:12.639><c> can</c><00:54:12.820><c> go</c><00:54:13.079><c> up</c>

00:54:13.340 --> 00:54:16.139
to<00:54:15.039><c> the</c><00:54:15.219><c> land</c><00:54:15.539><c> of</c><00:54:15.739><c> Israel,</c>

00:54:16.460 --> 00:54:19.500
as<00:54:16.659><c> it</c><00:54:16.840><c> says</c><00:54:17.019><c> in</c><00:54:17.159><c> Zechariah</c><00:54:17.559><c> 14</c><00:54:18.019><c> verse</c><00:54:18.239><c> 6,</c><00:54:18.860><c> that</c><00:54:19.000><c> the</c><00:54:19.179><c> nations</c>

00:54:19.500 --> 00:54:21.360
will<00:54:19.679><c> go</c><00:54:19.860><c> up</c><00:54:20.159><c> to</c><00:54:20.380><c> the</c><00:54:20.519><c> Feast</c><00:54:20.699><c> of</c><00:54:20.860><c> Tabernacles.</c>

00:54:21.719 --> 00:54:26.099
So<00:54:21.880><c> let's</c><00:54:22.119><c> turn</c><00:54:22.460><c> to</c><00:54:23.239><c> Isaiah</c><00:54:23.579><c> 35,</c><00:54:24.260><c> one</c><00:54:24.440><c> of</c><00:54:24.500><c> those</c><00:54:25.179><c> chapters</c><00:54:25.639><c> that</c><00:54:25.880><c> we</c>

00:54:26.099 --> 00:54:27.679
all<00:54:26.320><c> love</c><00:54:26.639><c> in</c><00:54:27.199><c> the</c><00:54:27.420><c> Bible</c>

00:54:27.679 --> 00:54:31.179

00:54:33.800 --> 00:54:36.099
And<00:54:33.920><c> it</c><00:54:34.059><c> tells</c><00:54:34.320><c> us</c><00:54:34.539><c> how</c><00:54:34.679><c> the</c><00:54:34.820><c> wilderness</c><00:54:35.219><c> and</c><00:54:35.539><c> the</c><00:54:35.760><c> solitary</c>

00:54:41.119 --> 00:54:45.840
It<00:54:41.360><c> shall</c><00:54:41.679><c> blossom</c><00:54:42.280><c> abundantly</c><00:54:43.179><c> and</c><00:54:43.699><c> rejoice</c><00:54:44.179><c> with</c><00:54:44.619><c> joy</c><00:54:45.059><c> and</c>

00:54:45.840 --> 00:54:47.119
with<00:54:46.179><c> singing.</c>

00:54:48.559 --> 00:54:50.940
And<00:54:48.699><c> the</c><00:54:48.840><c> eyes</c><00:54:49.039><c> of</c><00:54:49.179><c> the</c><00:54:49.340><c> blind</c><00:54:49.519><c> will</c><00:54:49.699><c> be</c><00:54:49.940><c> opened</c><00:54:50.260><c> and</c><00:54:50.559><c> the</c><00:54:50.699><c> ears</c>

00:54:50.940 --> 00:54:53.119

00:54:57.179 --> 00:55:00.239
So<00:54:57.619><c> that</c><00:54:58.059><c> will</c><00:54:58.280><c> literally</c><00:54:58.719><c> happen,</c><00:54:59.219><c> but</c><00:54:59.360><c> also</c><00:54:59.780><c> those</c><00:54:59.980><c> that</c>

So<00:57:09.179><c> the</c><00:57:09.739><c> nation</c><00:57:10.059><c> of</c><00:57:10.199><c> Israel</c><00:57:10.480><c> will</c><00:57:10.679><c> go</c><00:57:10.900><c> on</c><00:57:11.079><c> the</c><00:57:11.300><c> way</c><00:57:11.500><c> of</c><00:57:11.760><c> holiness,</c><00:57:12.179><c> and</c><00:57:12.280><c> they</c><00:57:12.460><c> will</c><00:57:12.659><c> come</c><00:57:12.900><c> to</c><00:57:13.099><c> Zion.</c>

00:57:13.420 --> 00:57:17.840
And<00:57:13.800><c> then</c><00:57:14.239><c> the</c><00:57:15.079><c> nations</c><00:57:15.539><c> of</c><00:57:15.760><c> the</c><00:57:15.940><c> world</c><00:57:16.199><c> will</c><00:57:16.480><c> come</c><00:57:16.760><c> on</c><00:57:17.039><c> the</c><00:57:17.199><c> way</c><00:57:17.340><c> of</c><00:57:17.599><c> holiness,</c>

00:57:18.019 --> 00:57:21.199
and<00:57:18.239><c> everybody</c><00:57:18.539><c> will</c><00:57:18.760><c> have</c><00:57:18.960><c> to</c><00:57:19.139><c> go</c><00:57:19.440><c> in</c><00:57:19.940><c> that</c><00:57:20.280><c> way.</c>

00:57:21.360 --> 00:57:24.880
So<00:57:21.820><c> these</c><00:57:22.179><c> two</c><00:57:22.420><c> ideas</c><00:57:22.900><c> then</c><00:57:23.519><c> come</c><00:57:23.860><c> together.</c>

00:57:25.159 --> 00:57:29.079
The<00:57:25.679><c> kings</c><00:57:26.039><c> of</c><00:57:26.280><c> the</c><00:57:26.460><c> east</c><00:57:26.739><c> will</c><00:57:27.079><c> arise,</c><00:57:27.960><c> and</c><00:57:28.199><c> the</c><00:57:28.400><c> way</c><00:57:28.559><c> will</c><00:57:28.820><c> be</c>

00:57:29.079 --> 00:57:29.960
prepared<00:57:29.539><c> for</c><00:57:29.760><c> them,</c>

00:57:29.960 --> 00:57:32.880
and<00:57:30.139><c> the</c><00:57:30.380><c> stumbling</c><00:57:30.679><c> stone</c><00:57:31.019><c> will</c><00:57:31.239><c> be</c><00:57:31.460><c> taken</c><00:57:31.760><c> out</c><00:57:32.460><c> of</c><00:57:32.639><c> the</c><00:57:32.760><c> way</c>

00:57:32.880 --> 00:57:33.519
of<00:57:33.079><c> Israel.</c>

00:57:33.840 --> 00:57:36.219
So<00:57:34.039><c> that</c><00:57:34.179><c> will</c><00:57:34.340><c> be</c><00:57:34.519><c> the</c><00:57:34.719><c> way</c><00:57:35.119><c> to</c><00:57:35.340><c> destroy</c><00:57:35.719><c> Babylon,</c>

00:57:36.280 --> 00:57:39.960
and<00:57:36.440><c> it</c><00:57:36.559><c> will</c><00:57:36.679><c> be</c><00:57:36.840><c> the</c><00:57:37.000><c> way</c><00:57:37.599><c> for</c><00:57:37.980><c> Israel</c><00:57:38.360><c> then</c><00:57:38.679><c> to</c><00:57:38.900><c> become</c><00:57:39.360><c> the</c>

00:57:39.960 --> 00:57:41.340
kingdom<00:57:40.400><c> of</c><00:57:41.079><c> God.</c>

00:57:41.340 --> 00:57:46.260
And<00:57:41.440><c> so</c><00:57:41.820><c> all</c><00:57:42.400><c> the</c><00:57:42.599><c> nations</c><00:57:43.199><c> will</c><00:57:43.900><c> flow</c><00:57:44.320><c> up</c><00:57:44.820><c> to</c><00:57:45.179><c> the</c><00:57:45.340><c> new</c><00:57:45.599><c> temple</c>

00:57:46.260 --> 00:57:47.820
that<00:57:47.019><c> will</c><00:57:47.300><c> be</c><00:57:47.559><c> built,</c>

00:57:47.980 --> 00:57:53.159
and<00:57:48.019><c> they</c><00:57:48.119><c> will</c><00:57:49.199><c> be</c><00:57:49.360><c> educated</c><00:57:49.860><c> in</c><00:57:50.760><c> the</c><00:57:50.960><c> ways</c><00:57:51.460><c> of</c><00:57:52.199><c> God.</c>

00:57:54.300 --> 00:57:57.280
So<00:57:54.519><c> we</c><00:57:54.719><c> have</c><00:57:55.000><c> exactly</c><00:57:55.519><c> 50</c><00:57:55.840><c> seconds</c><00:57:56.239><c> left.</c>

00:58:00.480 --> 00:58:04.179
We<00:58:00.679><c> could</c><00:58:00.960><c> have</c><00:58:01.159><c> just</c><00:58:01.440><c> talked</c><00:58:01.679><c> a</c><00:58:01.780><c> little</c><00:58:02.039><c> bit</c><00:58:02.219><c> about</c><00:58:02.599><c> the</c><00:58:02.739><c> Jubilees.</c>

00:58:06.420 --> 00:58:09.559
So<00:58:07.019><c> we'll</c><00:58:07.619><c> just</c><00:58:08.119><c> bend</c><00:58:08.260><c> the</c><00:58:08.420><c> rules</c><00:58:08.579><c> a</c><00:58:08.820><c> teeny</c><00:58:08.960><c> bit.</c>

00:58:09.559 --> 00:58:14.380
Just<00:58:10.360><c> to</c><00:58:10.619><c> sort</c><00:58:10.760><c> of</c><00:58:11.099><c> say</c><00:58:11.360><c> where</c><00:58:11.579><c> that</c><00:58:11.920><c> idea</c><00:58:12.300><c> comes</c><00:58:12.760><c> from.</c>

00:58:14.460 --> 00:58:17.000
And<00:58:14.500><c> many</c><00:58:14.679><c> of</c><00:58:14.840><c> you</c><00:58:14.900><c> already</c><00:58:15.139><c> know,</c><00:58:15.380><c> so</c><00:58:15.579><c> that's</c><00:58:16.139><c> great.</c>

00:58:18.179 --> 00:58:23.139
So<00:58:18.380><c> Israel's</c><00:58:18.820><c> biblical</c><00:58:19.179><c> calendar</c><00:58:19.599><c> was</c><00:58:19.980><c> divided</c><00:58:20.440><c> into</c><00:58:21.460><c> sevens,</c><00:58:22.260><c> periods</c><00:58:22.539><c> of</c><00:58:22.860><c> sevens.</c>

00:58:23.139 --> 00:58:25.920
So<00:58:23.380><c> every</c><00:58:23.699><c> seven</c><00:58:23.920><c> days</c><00:58:24.179><c> you</c><00:58:24.320><c> have</c><00:58:24.480><c> the</c><00:58:24.739><c> Sabbath,</c><00:58:25.400><c> every</c><00:58:25.639><c> seven</c>

00:58:25.920 --> 00:58:27.539
years<00:58:26.239><c> the</c><00:58:26.659><c> sabbatical</c><00:58:27.219><c> year</c>

00:58:27.539 --> 00:58:31.340
when<00:58:27.760><c> debts</c><00:58:28.039><c> were</c><00:58:28.320><c> forgiven,</c><00:58:29.019><c> and</c><00:58:29.300><c> every</c><00:58:29.639><c> seven</c><00:58:30.000><c> sabbatical</c>

00:58:31.340 --> 00:58:33.019
cycles,<00:58:32.059><c> 49</c><00:58:32.480><c> years,</c>

00:58:33.119 --> 00:58:34.920
it's<00:58:33.400><c> the</c><00:58:33.599><c> great</c><00:58:33.920><c> year</c><00:58:34.199><c> of</c><00:58:34.460><c> Jubilee.</c>

00:58:34.920 --> 00:58:37.659
And<00:58:35.280><c> on</c><00:58:35.420><c> the</c><00:58:35.539><c> great</c><00:58:35.679><c> year</c><00:58:35.840><c> of</c><00:58:36.079><c> Jubilee</c><00:58:36.360><c> every</c><00:58:36.760><c> man</c><00:58:37.019><c> is</c><00:58:37.239><c> free</c><00:58:37.440><c> to</c>

00:58:37.659 --> 00:58:39.619
return<00:58:37.980><c> to</c><00:58:38.420><c> his</c><00:58:38.920><c> inheritance.</c>

00:58:39.980 --> 00:58:43.980
So<00:58:40.159><c> it's</c><00:58:40.380><c> about</c><00:58:40.599><c> returning</c><00:58:41.119><c> to</c><00:58:41.539><c> your</c><00:58:41.940><c> inheritance</c><00:58:42.500><c> on</c><00:58:43.179><c> the</c><00:58:43.380><c> Jubilee.</c>

00:58:44.400 --> 00:58:47.699
Those<00:58:44.639><c> were</c><00:58:44.840><c> the</c><00:58:45.119><c> milestones</c><00:58:45.760><c> for</c><00:58:46.179><c> Israel's</c><00:58:47.019><c> national</c><00:58:47.300><c> life,</c>

00:58:47.900 --> 00:58:50.519
and<00:58:48.099><c> they</c><00:58:48.280><c> were</c><00:58:48.579><c> regulated</c><00:58:49.159><c> in</c><00:58:49.960><c> that</c><00:58:50.280><c> way.</c>

00:58:50.639 --> 00:58:53.780
Even<00:58:50.900><c> the</c><00:58:51.199><c> seventh</c><00:58:51.500><c> month</c><00:58:52.079><c> was</c><00:58:52.480><c> significant</c><00:58:53.159><c> because</c><00:58:53.500><c> that</c>

00:58:53.780 --> 00:58:55.639
was<00:58:54.059><c> the</c><00:58:54.239><c> day</c><00:58:54.739><c> of</c><00:58:55.059><c> atonement</c>

00:58:55.639 --> 00:58:58.320
on<00:58:56.039><c> the</c><00:58:56.260><c> tenth</c><00:58:56.539><c> day</c><00:58:57.219><c> of</c><00:58:57.679><c> that</c><00:58:57.980><c> month.</c>

00:58:58.320 --> 00:59:00.980
The<00:58:58.599><c> first</c><00:58:58.860><c> day</c><00:58:59.059><c> was</c><00:58:59.179><c> when</c><00:58:59.380><c> the</c><00:58:59.619><c> elders</c><00:58:59.840><c> of</c><00:59:00.039><c> Israel</c><00:59:00.480><c> were</c>

00:59:00.980 --> 00:59:02.960
gathered<00:59:01.440><c> together.</c>

00:59:05.139 --> 00:59:12.280
So<00:59:05.340><c> the</c><00:59:05.519><c> day</c><00:59:05.780><c> of</c><00:59:06.059><c> atonement</c><00:59:06.880><c> was</c><00:59:08.059><c> the</c><00:59:08.400><c> day</c><00:59:08.719><c> on</c><00:59:09.079><c> which</c><00:59:09.420><c> the</c><00:59:09.960><c> Jubilee</c><00:59:10.460><c> trumpet</c><00:59:11.019><c> was</c><00:59:11.800><c> blown,</c>

00:59:12.300 --> 00:59:13.780
and<00:59:12.480><c> that's</c><00:59:12.699><c> significant.</c>

00:59:13.980 --> 00:59:17.059
So<00:59:14.320><c> in</c><00:59:14.500><c> Leviticus</c><00:59:14.820><c> 25,</c><00:59:15.800><c> I'll</c><00:59:15.920><c> read</c><00:59:16.119><c> you</c><00:59:16.239><c> the</c><00:59:16.360><c> verses,</c><00:59:16.719><c> verses</c>

00:59:19.619 --> 00:59:20.639
It<00:59:19.800><c> says,</c>

every<00:59:52.039><c> man</c><00:59:52.340><c> unto</c><00:59:52.619><c> his</c><00:59:52.880><c> possession,</c>

00:59:53.480 --> 00:59:57.119
and<00:59:53.840><c> ye</c><00:59:54.059><c> shall</c><00:59:54.239><c> return</c><00:59:54.619><c> every</c><00:59:55.059><c> man</c><00:59:55.420><c> unto</c><00:59:55.739><c> his</c><00:59:56.079><c> family.</c>

00:59:58.239 --> 01:00:01.300
In<00:59:58.579><c> the</c><00:59:58.760><c> year</c><00:59:59.079><c> of</c><00:59:59.320><c> this</c><00:59:59.599><c> Jubilee,</c><01:00:00.019><c> ye</c><01:00:00.219><c> shall</c><01:00:00.360><c> return</c><01:00:00.800><c> every</c>

man<01:00:01.940><c> unto</c><01:00:02.440><c> his</c><01:00:02.900><c> possession.</c>

01:00:04.579 --> 01:00:08.920
So<01:00:04.900><c> from</c><01:00:05.099><c> this</c><01:00:05.320><c> law</c><01:00:05.500><c> of</c><01:00:05.659><c> the</c><01:00:05.739><c> Jubilee,</c><01:00:06.860><c> we</c><01:00:07.019><c> learn</c><01:00:07.320><c> that</c><01:00:07.639><c> the</c><01:00:07.900><c> major</c><01:00:08.260><c> feature</c><01:00:08.679><c> of</c>

01:00:08.920 --> 01:00:10.760
the<01:00:09.059><c> Jubilee</c><01:00:09.539><c> was</c><01:00:10.280><c> liberty</c>

01:00:10.760 --> 01:00:14.280
and<01:00:11.460><c> returning</c><01:00:12.000><c> every</c><01:00:12.500><c> man</c><01:00:12.880><c> to</c><01:00:13.320><c> his</c><01:00:13.780><c> inheritance.</c>

01:00:14.599 --> 01:00:17.619
If<01:00:14.760><c> you</c><01:00:15.019><c> lost</c><01:00:15.420><c> your</c><01:00:15.699><c> land</c><01:00:15.920><c> for</c><01:00:16.219><c> some</c><01:00:16.500><c> reason,</c><01:00:17.139><c> you</c><01:00:17.260><c> would</c><01:00:17.460><c> get</c>

01:00:17.619 --> 01:00:20.280
it<01:00:17.900><c> back</c><01:00:18.360><c> on</c><01:00:18.820><c> the</c><01:00:19.079><c> year</c><01:00:19.400><c> of</c><01:00:19.800><c> Jubilee.</c>

01:00:20.519 --> 01:00:21.960
Now<01:00:20.780><c> why</c><01:00:20.980><c> would</c><01:00:21.159><c> you</c><01:00:21.340><c> lose</c><01:00:21.599><c> your</c><01:00:21.800><c> land?</c>

01:00:21.960 --> 01:00:24.900
Well,<01:00:22.119><c> there's</c><01:00:22.239><c> lots</c><01:00:22.500><c> of</c><01:00:22.699><c> reasons</c><01:00:23.039><c> why</c><01:00:23.400><c> you</c><01:00:23.639><c> would</c><01:00:24.039><c> lose</c><01:00:24.360><c> your</c><01:00:24.599><c> land,</c>

01:00:25.199 --> 01:00:28.940
but<01:00:25.420><c> Israel</c><01:00:25.880><c> as</c><01:00:26.179><c> a</c><01:00:26.420><c> nation</c><01:00:26.900><c> lost</c><01:00:27.679><c> their</c><01:00:28.039><c> land</c><01:00:28.340><c> because</c><01:00:28.679><c> they</c>

01:00:28.940 --> 01:00:31.099
didn't<01:00:29.280><c> keep</c><01:00:29.619><c> the</c><01:00:29.860><c> word</c><01:00:30.019><c> of</c><01:00:30.260><c> God.</c>

01:00:31.579 --> 01:00:33.820
So<01:00:31.739><c> Leviticus</c><01:00:32.099><c> 20</c><01:00:32.679><c> verse</c><01:00:32.840><c> 22</c><01:00:33.260><c> says,</c>

01:00:34.219 --> 01:00:37.360
Ye<01:00:34.219><c> shall</c><01:00:34.460><c> therefore</c><01:00:34.820><c> keep</c><01:00:35.059><c> all</c><01:00:35.260><c> my</c><01:00:35.500><c> statutes</c><01:00:35.960><c> and</c><01:00:36.099><c> all</c><01:00:36.239><c> my</c><01:00:36.420><c> judgments</c><01:00:36.760><c> and</c><01:00:36.980><c> do</c><01:00:37.199><c> them,</c>

01:00:37.440 --> 01:00:40.019
that<01:00:37.500><c> the</c><01:00:37.739><c> land</c><01:00:37.960><c> whither</c><01:00:38.179><c> I</c><01:00:38.440><c> bring</c><01:00:38.639><c> you</c><01:00:38.940><c> to</c><01:00:39.099><c> dwell</c><01:00:39.380><c> therein,</c>

01:00:40.400 --> 01:00:41.559
spew<01:00:40.659><c> you</c><01:00:40.980><c> not</c><01:00:41.199><c> out.</c>

01:00:41.860 --> 01:00:44.440
And<01:00:42.219><c> it</c><01:00:42.420><c> did,</c><01:00:42.699><c> and</c><01:00:42.900><c> they</c><01:00:43.099><c> lost</c><01:00:43.639><c> their</c><01:00:43.980><c> land.</c>

01:00:44.739 --> 01:00:47.280
So<01:00:45.099><c> they</c><01:00:45.300><c> need</c><01:00:45.519><c> to</c><01:00:45.820><c> then</c><01:00:46.119><c> come</c><01:00:46.420><c> back</c><01:00:46.659><c> to</c><01:00:46.820><c> their</c><01:00:46.980><c> land</c><01:00:47.119><c> again,</c>

01:00:47.280 --> 01:00:49.800
and<01:00:47.400><c> we</c><01:00:47.559><c> see</c><01:00:47.739><c> the</c><01:00:47.940><c> process</c><01:00:48.460><c> of</c><01:00:49.059><c> that</c><01:00:49.460><c> happening.</c>

01:00:49.800 --> 01:00:53.699
So<01:00:50.320><c> it's</c><01:00:50.699><c> significant</c><01:00:51.519><c> that</c><01:00:51.960><c> the</c><01:00:52.440><c> trumpet</c><01:00:52.780><c> of</c><01:00:53.039><c> the</c><01:00:53.219><c> Jubilee</c>

01:00:53.699 --> 01:00:56.059
is<01:00:54.219><c> blown</c><01:00:54.579><c> on</c><01:00:54.880><c> the</c><01:00:55.039><c> day</c><01:00:55.239><c> of</c><01:00:55.480><c> atonement</c>

01:00:56.059 --> 01:00:59.139
because<01:00:56.519><c> that</c><01:00:56.780><c> is</c><01:00:57.019><c> the</c><01:00:57.179><c> day</c><01:00:57.500><c> of</c><01:00:58.079><c> forgiveness.</c>

01:00:59.360 --> 01:01:02.920
It<01:00:59.780><c> is</c><01:01:00.059><c> that</c><01:01:00.300><c> day</c><01:01:00.559><c> that</c><01:01:00.679><c> you</c><01:01:00.860><c> were</c><01:01:01.099><c> able</c><01:01:01.440><c> to</c><01:01:01.679><c> return</c><01:01:02.179><c> to</c><01:01:02.659><c> your</c>

01:01:02.920 --> 01:01:03.920
land<01:01:03.380><c> again.</c>

01:01:04.199 --> 01:01:05.679
And<01:01:04.480><c> so</c><01:01:04.599><c> it</c><01:01:04.719><c> is</c><01:01:04.860><c> for</c><01:01:05.059><c> Israel.</c>

01:01:05.960 --> 01:01:08.579
Eventually<01:01:06.360><c> they</c><01:01:06.579><c> will</c><01:01:06.880><c> completely</c><01:01:07.380><c> return</c><01:01:07.880><c> to</c><01:01:08.079><c> their</c><01:01:08.300><c> land</c>

01:01:08.579 --> 01:01:09.599
and<01:01:08.780><c> their</c><01:01:09.119><c> inheritance</c>

01:01:09.599 --> 01:01:15.260
when<01:01:10.559><c> they</c><01:01:11.079><c> are</c><01:01:11.420><c> atoned</c><01:01:11.780><c> for</c><01:01:12.320><c> and</c><01:01:12.699><c> in</c><01:01:13.179><c> the</c><01:01:13.420><c> Lord</c><01:01:13.780><c> Jesus</c><01:01:14.280><c> Christ.</c>

01:01:15.960 --> 01:01:19.280
So<01:01:16.480><c> that</c><01:01:17.000><c> was</c><01:01:17.219><c> a</c><01:01:17.440><c> time</c><01:01:17.679><c> of</c><01:01:17.920><c> redemption,</c><01:01:18.460><c> a</c><01:01:18.619><c> time</c><01:01:18.739><c> of</c><01:01:19.039><c> liberty,</c>

01:01:19.480 --> 01:01:22.559
a<01:01:20.059><c> time</c><01:01:20.239><c> of</c><01:01:20.480><c> returning</c><01:01:20.820><c> to</c><01:01:21.260><c> your</c><01:01:21.960><c> inheritance.</c>

01:01:22.679 --> 01:01:28.619
And<01:01:22.820><c> it</c><01:01:23.199><c> related</c><01:01:23.500><c> to</c><01:01:24.300><c> the</c><01:01:24.519><c> day</c><01:01:24.920><c> of</c><01:01:25.199><c> atonement,</c><01:01:25.980><c> to</c><01:01:26.239><c> forgiveness,</c><01:01:27.019><c> and</c><01:01:27.179><c> the</c><01:01:27.380><c> renewal</c><01:01:27.800><c> of</c>

01:01:28.619 --> 01:01:29.139
the<01:01:28.880><c> covenant.</c>

01:01:29.260 --> 01:01:33.139
So<01:01:29.420><c> it</c><01:01:29.420><c> was</c><01:01:29.679><c> also</c><01:01:29.920><c> connected</c><01:01:30.340><c> to</c><01:01:30.800><c> solemn</c><01:01:31.239><c> worship,</c><01:01:32.380><c> the</c><01:01:32.780><c> year</c>

01:01:33.139 --> 01:01:34.139
of<01:01:33.500><c> Jubilee,</c>

01:01:34.380 --> 01:01:36.480
even<01:01:34.639><c> though</c><01:01:34.820><c> it</c><01:01:34.920><c> was</c><01:01:35.119><c> a</c><01:01:35.320><c> time</c><01:01:35.559><c> of</c><01:01:35.860><c> great</c><01:01:36.079><c> rejoicing.</c>

01:01:36.480 --> 01:01:38.199
And<01:01:36.619><c> you</c><01:01:36.699><c> would</c><01:01:36.920><c> travel</c><01:01:37.280><c> up</c><01:01:37.539><c> to</c><01:01:37.739><c> Jerusalem.</c>

01:01:38.219 --> 01:01:40.679
That<01:01:38.360><c> was</c><01:01:38.500><c> one</c><01:01:38.659><c> of</c><01:01:38.760><c> the</c><01:01:38.980><c> feasts</c><01:01:39.360><c> that</c><01:01:39.699><c> we</c><01:01:39.900><c> talked</c><01:01:40.079><c> about</c><01:01:40.340><c> last</c>

01:01:40.679 --> 01:01:42.300
night,<01:01:40.900><c> the</c><01:01:41.159><c> Feasts</c><01:01:41.539><c> of</c><01:01:41.880><c> the</c><01:01:42.079><c> Feet.</c>

01:01:42.300 --> 01:01:46.179
Now<01:01:42.659><c> it</c><01:01:42.860><c> tells</c><01:01:43.139><c> us</c><01:01:43.320><c> in</c><01:01:43.500><c> Isaiah</c><01:01:43.780><c> chapter</c><01:01:44.159><c> 27,</c><01:01:44.800><c> one</c><01:01:45.019><c> of</c><01:01:45.199><c> the</c><01:01:45.699><c> verses</c><01:01:45.960><c> that</c>

we<01:01:46.280><c> saw</c><01:01:46.460><c> them</c><01:01:46.699><c> singing</c><01:01:47.239><c> last</c><01:01:47.820><c> night</c><01:01:48.059><c> on</c><01:01:48.260><c> that</c><01:01:48.500><c> march,</c>

01:01:56.980 --> 01:01:57.579
And<01:01:57.079><c> then</c><01:01:57.219><c> it</c><01:01:57.400><c> says,</c>

01:01:57.780 --> 01:02:00.199
And<01:01:57.780><c> it</c><01:01:57.780><c> shall</c><01:01:57.960><c> come</c><01:01:58.159><c> to</c><01:01:58.300><c> pass</c><01:01:58.500><c> in</c><01:01:58.619><c> that</c><01:01:58.820><c> day</c><01:01:59.000><c> that</c><01:01:59.219><c> the</c><01:01:59.619><c> great</c>

01:02:10.360 --> 01:02:14.639

01:02:26.739 --> 01:02:29.400
And<01:02:26.940><c> actually</c><01:02:27.260><c> in</c><01:02:27.400><c> Isaiah</c><01:02:27.659><c> 27,</c><01:02:28.119><c> if</c><01:02:28.239><c> you</c><01:02:28.320><c> go</c><01:02:28.480><c> back</c><01:02:28.619><c> to</c><01:02:28.760><c> the</c><01:02:28.880><c> beginning,</c><01:02:29.099><c> you'll</c><01:02:29.280><c> see</c>

01:02:29.400 --> 01:02:30.820
that<01:02:29.599><c> it</c><01:02:29.840><c> actually</c><01:02:29.920><c> also</c><01:02:30.219><c> talks</c><01:02:30.440><c> there</c>

about<01:02:31.300><c> the</c><01:02:31.559><c> forgiveness</c><01:02:32.099><c> and</c><01:02:32.360><c> the</c><01:02:32.480><c> iniquity,</c><01:02:33.559><c> or</c><01:02:33.699><c> the</c><01:02:33.760><c> forgiveness</c><01:02:34.059><c> of</c><01:02:34.300><c> Jacob,</c><01:02:34.679><c> the</c>

01:02:38.599 --> 01:02:43.039
And<01:02:39.139><c> also</c><01:02:39.559><c> in</c><01:02:39.739><c> Isaiah</c><01:02:40.019><c> 27,</c><01:02:40.599><c> the</c><01:02:40.840><c> destruction</c><01:02:41.400><c> of</c><01:02:42.059><c> Israel's</c><01:02:42.800><c> enemies.</c>

01:02:43.059 --> 01:02:45.159
And<01:02:43.219><c> that's</c><01:02:43.480><c> by</c><01:02:44.039><c> the</c><01:02:44.280><c> Lord</c><01:02:44.480><c> Jesus</c><01:02:44.840><c> Christ.</c>

01:02:45.199 --> 01:02:49.360
He<01:02:45.340><c> is</c><01:02:45.599><c> the</c><01:02:45.840><c> one</c><01:02:46.280><c> that</c><01:02:46.599><c> has</c><01:02:46.920><c> gone</c><01:02:47.119><c> to</c><01:02:47.480><c> prepare</c><01:02:47.719><c> the</c><01:02:48.039><c> place</c><01:02:48.780><c> of</c>

01:02:51.159 --> 01:02:53.480
So<01:02:51.300><c> when</c><01:02:51.440><c> you</c><01:02:51.639><c> put</c><01:02:51.760><c> all</c><01:02:51.980><c> those</c><01:02:52.199><c> together,</c><01:02:52.679><c> it</c><01:02:52.800><c> really</c><01:02:53.039><c> does</c><01:02:53.260><c> get</c><01:02:53.400><c> a</c>

01:02:53.480 --> 01:02:54.199
bit<01:02:53.619><c> exciting.</c>

01:02:54.480 --> 01:02:57.840
Just<01:02:54.719><c> to</c><01:02:54.940><c> think</c><01:02:55.059><c> that</c><01:02:55.300><c> it's</c><01:02:55.619><c> 49</c><01:02:56.059><c> years</c><01:02:56.380><c> this</c><01:02:56.699><c> year</c><01:02:56.900><c> since</c><01:02:57.320><c> the</c>

01:02:57.840 --> 01:02:59.739
Six<01:02:58.079><c>-Day</c><01:02:58.239><c> War</c><01:02:58.599><c> when</c><01:02:58.880><c> Jerusalem</c><01:02:59.260><c> was</c><01:02:59.460><c> liberated.</c>

01:02:59.739 --> 01:03:08.079
And<01:02:59.920><c> it's</c><01:03:00.539><c> 49</c><01:03:01.159><c> and</c><01:03:02.239><c> a</c><01:03:02.480><c> few</c><01:03:03.000><c> months</c><01:03:03.400><c> before</c><01:03:04.239><c> that,</c><01:03:06.960><c> that</c><01:03:06.960><c> Jerusalem</c><01:03:07.760><c> was</c>

01:03:08.079 --> 01:03:09.500
liberated<01:03:08.519><c> from</c><01:03:08.780><c> the</c><01:03:08.960><c> Ottoman</c><01:03:09.199><c> Empire</c>

01:03:09.500 --> 01:03:11.539
and<01:03:09.659><c> the</c><01:03:09.820><c> Jews</c><01:03:09.980><c> were</c><01:03:10.239><c> first</c><01:03:10.579><c> able</c><01:03:10.900><c> to</c><01:03:11.079><c> go</c><01:03:11.340><c> back.</c>

01:03:11.900 --> 01:03:15.760
So<01:03:12.039><c> like</c><01:03:12.219><c> I</c><01:03:12.340><c> said</c><01:03:12.420><c> before,</c><01:03:12.739><c> I</c><01:03:12.800><c> don't</c><01:03:13.000><c> want</c><01:03:13.139><c> to</c><01:03:13.559><c> make</c><01:03:13.980><c> predictions</c><01:03:14.539><c> because</c><01:03:15.340><c> I</c>

01:03:15.760 --> 01:03:16.579
don't<01:03:15.980><c> really</c><01:03:16.300><c> know,</c>

01:03:16.599 --> 01:03:18.619
but<01:03:16.760><c> we</c><01:03:16.980><c> definitely</c><01:03:17.320><c> see</c><01:03:17.539><c> a</c><01:03:17.860><c> pattern</c><01:03:18.099><c> here.</c>

01:03:18.840 --> 01:03:22.739
And<01:03:19.000><c> it</c><01:03:19.099><c> just</c><01:03:19.579><c> gives</c><01:03:19.840><c> us</c><01:03:20.800><c> maybe</c><01:03:21.079><c> a</c><01:03:21.119><c> little</c><01:03:21.360><c> kick</c><01:03:21.659><c> and</c><01:03:22.239><c> makes</c><01:03:22.500><c> us</c>

01:03:22.739 --> 01:03:23.559
wake<01:03:22.920><c> up</c><01:03:23.119><c> a</c><01:03:23.199><c> little</c><01:03:23.380><c> bit</c>

01:03:23.559 --> 01:03:27.219
and<01:03:23.760><c> watch</c><01:03:24.800><c> carefully</c><01:03:25.460><c> over</c><01:03:26.099><c> the</c><01:03:26.260><c> next</c><01:03:26.539><c> couple</c><01:03:26.780><c> of</c><01:03:27.039><c> years,</c>

01:03:27.300 --> 01:03:29.480
watch<01:03:27.800><c> Israel</c><01:03:28.280><c> and</c><01:03:28.500><c> see</c><01:03:28.840><c> what</c><01:03:29.119><c> happens.</c>

01:03:29.480 --> 01:03:34.260
And<01:03:29.559><c> we</c><01:03:29.679><c> may</c><01:03:29.940><c> be</c><01:03:30.239><c> surprised</c><01:03:30.860><c> that</c><01:03:32.260><c> something</c><01:03:32.579><c> really</c><01:03:32.940><c> big</c><01:03:33.059><c> could</c><01:03:33.300><c> happen,</c><01:03:33.900><c> but</c>

01:03:34.260 --> 01:03:36.099
we'll<01:03:34.460><c> have</c><01:03:34.719><c> to</c><01:03:34.940><c> wait</c><01:03:35.139><c> and</c><01:03:35.360><c> see.</c>
