And<00:04:36.660><c> there</c><00:04:36.759><c> was</c><00:04:36.939><c> a</c><00:04:37.060><c> massive</c><00:04:37.319><c> amount</c><00:04:37.579><c> of</c><00:04:37.759><c> people,</c><00:04:38.279><c> 300</c><00:04:38.819><c> people</c>

00:04:39.300 --> 00:04:40.620
that<00:04:39.459><c> were</c><00:04:39.720><c> hiding</c><00:04:40.180><c> in</c><00:04:40.459><c> there.</c>

00:04:40.620 --> 00:04:41.560
And<00:04:40.860><c> Saul</c><00:04:41.019><c> comes</c><00:04:41.339><c> in.</c>

00:04:41.660 --> 00:04:44.240
And<00:04:41.819><c> David</c><00:04:42.000><c> could</c><00:04:42.180><c> have</c><00:04:42.360><c> killed</c><00:04:42.579><c> him</c><00:04:42.779><c> right</c><00:04:43.040><c> then</c><00:04:43.240><c> and</c><00:04:43.459><c> there.</c>

00:04:44.319 --> 00:04:45.079
But<00:04:44.519><c> he</c><00:04:44.680><c> didn't.</c>

00:04:45.339 --> 00:04:48.379
He<00:04:45.579><c> just</c><00:04:45.860><c> cuts</c><00:04:46.019><c> off</c><00:04:46.319><c> a</c><00:04:46.579><c> little</c><00:04:46.839><c> corner</c><00:04:47.240><c> of</c><00:04:47.500><c> Saul's</c><00:04:48.019><c> robe</c>

00:04:48.379 --> 00:04:49.800
but<00:04:48.740><c> refuses</c><00:04:49.259><c> to</c><00:04:49.540><c> kill</c><00:04:49.680><c> him.</c>

00:04:49.800 --> 00:04:53.019
He<00:04:49.959><c> says,</c><00:04:50.160><c> I</c><00:04:50.199><c> won't</c><00:04:50.899><c> raise</c><00:04:51.420><c> my</c><00:04:51.779><c> hand</c><00:04:51.980><c> to</c><00:04:52.160><c> the</c><00:04:52.339><c> Lord's</c><00:04:52.740><c> anointed.</c>

00:04:53.279 --> 00:04:54.899
It's<00:04:53.680><c> interesting</c><00:04:54.040><c> that</c><00:04:54.339><c> connection</c><00:04:54.740><c> here</c>

00:04:54.899 --> 00:04:56.860
with<00:04:55.040><c> the</c><00:04:55.259><c> cutting</c><00:04:55.420><c> of</c><00:04:55.680><c> the</c><00:04:55.899><c> robe.</c>

00:04:58.720 --> 00:05:00.019
I<00:04:59.240><c> think</c><00:04:59.759><c> so.</c>

00:05:00.019 --> 00:05:03.800
Saul's<00:05:00.360><c> mantle,</c><00:05:02.439><c> Samuel</c><00:05:02.939><c> went</c><00:05:03.199><c> to</c><00:05:03.459><c> leave.</c>

00:05:04.259 --> 00:05:08.339
And<00:05:04.740><c> he</c><00:05:04.939><c> grabbed</c><00:05:05.240><c> onto</c><00:05:05.579><c> Samuel's</c><00:05:06.779><c> mantle,</c><00:05:07.019><c> and</c><00:05:07.180><c> it</c><00:05:07.420><c> ripped.</c>

00:05:08.560 --> 00:05:10.779
And<00:05:08.839><c> I</c><00:05:08.959><c> think</c><00:05:09.199><c> there's</c><00:05:09.500><c> a</c><00:05:09.699><c> connection</c><00:05:09.980><c> here</c><00:05:10.300><c> as</c><00:05:10.560><c> well.</c>

00:05:11.040 --> 00:05:14.480
David<00:05:11.379><c> is</c><00:05:11.660><c> cutting</c><00:05:11.980><c> Saul's</c><00:05:12.639><c> mantle</c><00:05:12.920><c> now,</c><00:05:13.639><c> cutting</c><00:05:13.920><c> his</c><00:05:14.279><c> robe.</c>

00:05:14.500 --> 00:05:15.759
And<00:05:14.639><c> he</c><00:05:14.800><c> shows</c><00:05:15.040><c> it</c><00:05:15.300><c> to</c><00:05:15.439><c> him.</c>

00:05:16.060 --> 00:05:17.699
Could<00:05:16.240><c> have</c><00:05:16.399><c> killed</c><00:05:16.620><c> you</c><00:05:17.000><c> easy,</c><00:05:17.339><c> Saul.</c>

00:05:17.839 --> 00:05:19.819
You<00:05:18.040><c> didn't</c><00:05:18.180><c> even</c><00:05:18.339><c> know</c><00:05:18.480><c> I</c><00:05:18.699><c> was</c><00:05:18.899><c> here.</c>

00:05:21.579 --> 00:05:24.800
And<00:05:21.740><c> Saul</c><00:05:22.600><c> has</c><00:05:23.519><c> another</c><00:05:23.879><c> moment</c><00:05:24.360><c> where</c>

00:05:24.800 --> 00:05:28.639
his<00:05:25.199><c> affection</c><00:05:25.699><c> and</c><00:05:25.939><c> his</c><00:05:26.139><c> compassion</c><00:05:26.839><c> and</c><00:05:27.040><c> his</c><00:05:27.339><c> love</c><00:05:27.939><c> for</c><00:05:28.220><c> David</c>

00:05:28.639 --> 00:05:31.060
comes<00:05:28.980><c> out,</c><00:05:29.160><c> just</c><00:05:29.439><c> for</c><00:05:29.720><c> a</c><00:05:29.779><c> little</c><00:05:29.980><c> minute.</c>

00:05:31.360 --> 00:05:34.540
Because<00:05:31.920><c> David</c><00:05:32.480><c> just</c><00:05:32.959><c> showed</c><00:05:33.199><c> him</c><00:05:33.519><c> mercy.</c>

00:05:35.040 --> 00:05:38.740
David<00:05:35.680><c> just</c><00:05:36.060><c> showed</c><00:05:36.379><c> his</c><00:05:36.800><c> enemy</c><00:05:37.180><c> compassion.</c>

00:05:39.800 --> 00:05:41.819
You<00:05:40.019><c> want</c><00:05:40.459><c> to</c><00:05:40.600><c> talk</c><00:05:40.779><c> about</c><00:05:40.980><c> love</c><00:05:41.300><c> your</c><00:05:41.540><c> enemies.</c>

00:05:41.920 --> 00:05:43.740
Do<00:05:42.100><c> good</c><00:05:42.300><c> to</c><00:05:42.459><c> those</c><00:05:42.860><c> that</c><00:05:43.160><c> hate</c><00:05:43.399><c> you.</c>

00:05:44.160 --> 00:05:45.459
This<00:05:44.339><c> was</c><00:05:44.639><c> a</c><00:05:44.720><c> perfect</c><00:05:45.040><c> example.</c>

00:05:45.540 --> 00:05:46.720
David<00:05:45.879><c> was</c><00:05:46.199><c> a</c><00:05:46.279><c> warrior.</c>

00:05:47.160 --> 00:05:50.199
Any<00:05:47.480><c> other</c><00:05:47.819><c> warrior</c><00:05:48.339><c> during</c><00:05:48.720><c> this</c><00:05:48.980><c> time,</c><00:05:49.319><c> brothers</c><00:05:49.660><c> and</c><00:05:49.800><c> sisters,</c>

00:05:50.639 --> 00:05:52.600
would<00:05:50.839><c> have</c><00:05:51.300><c> killed</c><00:05:51.600><c> Saul</c><00:05:52.000><c> in</c><00:05:52.300><c> an</c><00:05:52.399><c> instant.</c>

00:05:52.699 --> 00:05:53.680
I<00:05:52.699><c> mean,</c><00:05:52.860><c> let's</c><00:05:53.079><c> be</c><00:05:53.300><c> honest.</c>

00:05:54.120 --> 00:05:57.540
And<00:05:54.279><c> so</c><00:05:54.480><c> David</c><00:05:54.819><c> does</c><00:05:55.060><c> something</c><00:05:55.420><c> really</c><00:05:55.839><c> extraordinary</c><00:05:56.540><c> here.</c>

00:05:57.780 --> 00:06:02.620
He<00:05:58.420><c> saved</c><00:05:59.019><c> Saul</c><00:05:59.500><c> from</c><00:05:59.899><c> death,</c><00:06:01.180><c> even</c><00:06:01.980><c> though</c><00:06:02.339><c> Saul</c>

00:06:02.620 --> 00:06:04.879
was<00:06:02.860><c> his</c><00:06:03.300><c> mortal</c><00:06:03.639><c> enemy</c><00:06:03.980><c> at</c><00:06:04.220><c> the</c><00:06:04.399><c> time.</c>

00:06:05.279 --> 00:06:06.279
Great<00:06:05.519><c> lesson</c><00:06:05.899><c> there.</c>

00:06:06.480 --> 00:06:07.839
Jesus<00:06:06.839><c> talks</c><00:06:07.180><c> about</c><00:06:07.500><c> that.</c>

00:06:07.939 --> 00:06:11.319
One<00:06:08.160><c> greater</c><00:06:08.540><c> than</c><00:06:08.740><c> David,</c><00:06:09.540><c> the</c><00:06:09.699><c> son</c><00:06:09.839><c> of</c><00:06:10.060><c> David,</c><00:06:10.800><c> he</c><00:06:11.040><c> talks</c>

00:06:11.319 --> 00:06:11.839
about<00:06:11.639><c> that,</c>

00:06:11.899 --> 00:06:14.600
loving<00:06:12.160><c> our</c><00:06:12.439><c> enemies</c><00:06:12.839><c> when</c><00:06:13.199><c> we're</c><00:06:13.399><c> in</c><00:06:13.560><c> situations</c><00:06:14.160><c> like</c><00:06:14.439><c> this.</c>

00:06:14.800 --> 00:06:16.199
David<00:06:15.060><c> could</c><00:06:15.259><c> have</c><00:06:15.339><c> done</c><00:06:15.540><c> it.</c>

00:06:16.300 --> 00:06:18.019
And<00:06:16.480><c> in</c><00:06:16.680><c> another</c><00:06:17.079><c> situation</c><00:06:17.740><c> that</c><00:06:17.879><c> we're</c>

00:06:26.279 --> 00:06:26.920
I'll<00:06:26.439><c> do</c><00:06:26.660><c> it.</c>

00:06:26.959 --> 00:06:28.459
I'll<00:06:27.319><c> do</c><00:06:27.480><c> it</c><00:06:27.579><c> for</c><00:06:27.839><c> you.</c>

All<00:06:28.779><c> right.</c>

00:06:30.019 --> 00:06:32.540
And<00:06:30.120><c> so</c><00:06:30.300><c> David</c><00:06:30.720><c> says,</c><00:06:31.060><c> the</c><00:06:31.060><c> Lord</c><00:06:31.279><c> judge</c><00:06:31.500><c> between</c><00:06:31.839><c> me</c><00:06:32.100><c> and</c><00:06:32.180><c> you,</c>

00:10:34.259 --> 00:10:35.659
That's<00:10:34.659><c> a</c><00:10:34.759><c> bad</c><00:10:34.919><c> mindset</c><00:10:35.299><c> to</c><00:10:35.500><c> be</c><00:10:35.580><c> in.</c>

00:10:35.779 --> 00:10:37.019

He<00:11:42.259><c> pretty</c><00:11:42.460><c> much</c><00:11:42.700><c> saved</c><00:11:43.059><c> his</c><00:11:43.299><c> life</c><00:11:43.580><c> at</c><00:11:43.799><c> this</c><00:11:44.019><c> time</c><00:11:44.240><c> from</c><00:11:44.419><c> being</c><00:11:44.779><c> slaughtered.</c>

00:11:45.580 --> 00:11:48.700
Abigail<00:11:45.720><c> goes</c><00:11:46.019><c> and</c><00:11:46.179><c> is</c><00:11:46.360><c> really</c><00:11:46.600><c> just</c><00:11:46.860><c> a</c><00:11:46.960><c> wonderful</c><00:11:47.460><c> peacemaker,</c>

00:11:49.700 --> 00:11:53.320
humbles<00:11:50.220><c> herself</c><00:11:50.740><c> to</c><00:11:51.059><c> David,</c><00:11:51.559><c> changes</c><00:11:52.000><c> David's</c><00:11:52.759><c> mind,</c>

00:11:53.759 --> 00:11:55.240
and<00:11:54.000><c> really,</c><00:11:54.539><c> brothers</c><00:11:54.700><c> and</c><00:11:55.000><c> sisters,</c>

00:11:55.480 --> 00:11:58.320
prevents<00:11:55.779><c> him</c><00:11:56.080><c> from</c><00:11:56.580><c> doing</c><00:11:56.919><c> a</c><00:11:57.080><c> grievous</c><00:11:57.440><c> sin.</c>

00:11:58.700 --> 00:12:01.019
He<00:11:59.220><c> would</c><00:11:59.460><c> have</c><00:11:59.559><c> gone</c><00:11:59.740><c> in</c><00:11:59.919><c> there</c><00:12:00.059><c> and</c><00:12:00.279><c> wiped</c><00:12:00.480><c> out</c><00:12:00.759><c> everything,</c>

00:12:01.379 --> 00:12:04.559
used<00:12:01.500><c> violence</c><00:12:02.059><c> because</c><00:12:02.419><c> of</c><00:12:02.600><c> a</c><00:12:02.919><c> personal</c><00:12:03.559><c> slight.</c>

00:12:06.279 --> 00:12:08.820
I'm<00:12:06.799><c> trying</c><00:12:07.000><c> to</c><00:12:07.159><c> think</c><00:12:07.360><c> in</c><00:12:07.519><c> the</c><00:12:07.720><c> law</c><00:12:07.940><c> if</c><00:12:08.100><c> that's</c><00:12:08.539><c> permitted.</c>

00:12:08.820 --> 00:12:11.879
Personal<00:12:09.460><c> slights</c><00:12:09.980><c> can</c><00:12:10.159><c> murder</c><00:12:10.580><c> everybody.</c>

00:12:12.139 --> 00:12:12.460
Right?

00:12:12.740 --> 00:12:14.279
I<00:12:12.879><c> don't</c><00:12:13.100><c> think</c><00:12:13.320><c> so.</c>

00:12:14.620 --> 00:12:19.120
And<00:12:14.799><c> so</c><00:12:15.139><c> Abigail,</c><00:12:15.980><c> in</c><00:12:16.159><c> her</c><00:12:16.460><c> spiritual</c><00:12:17.139><c> wisdom,</c><00:12:18.320><c> prevents</c><00:12:18.720><c> David.</c>

00:12:19.259 --> 00:12:21.039
A<00:12:19.460><c> man</c><00:12:19.620><c> after</c><00:12:19.879><c> God's</c><00:12:20.320><c> own</c><00:12:20.500><c> heart,</c><00:12:20.879><c> right?</c>

00:12:21.039 --> 00:12:23.279
He<00:12:21.159><c> was</c><00:12:21.399><c> righteous</c><00:12:21.919><c> as</c><00:12:22.259><c> well.</c>

00:12:24.720 --> 00:12:28.159
She<00:12:25.320><c> saves</c><00:12:25.779><c> David</c><00:12:26.080><c> from</c><00:12:26.340><c> doing</c><00:12:26.539><c> something</c><00:12:26.879><c> very</c><00:12:27.279><c> grievous.</c>

00:12:28.639 --> 00:12:32.220
And<00:12:28.899><c> hey,</c><00:12:29.279><c> that's</c><00:12:29.860><c> a</c><00:12:30.019><c> great</c><00:12:30.139><c> lesson</c><00:12:30.460><c> for</c><00:12:30.679><c> us</c><00:12:30.980><c> as</c><00:12:31.240><c> well.</c>

00:12:32.539 --> 00:12:36.120
We<00:12:33.139><c> should</c><00:12:33.740><c> be</c><00:12:34.000><c> Abigail's</c><00:12:34.519><c> to</c><00:12:34.639><c> each</c><00:12:34.860><c> other,</c><00:12:35.240><c> giving</c><00:12:35.460><c> good</c><00:12:35.720><c> advice,</c>

00:12:39.899 --> 00:12:43.000
Making<00:12:40.179><c> good</c><00:12:40.440><c> decisions,</c><00:12:41.200><c> but</c><00:12:41.399><c> helping</c><00:12:41.779><c> other</c><00:12:42.039><c> people,</c>

00:12:43.179 --> 00:12:46.200

to<00:12:46.460><c> make</c><00:12:46.600><c> good</c><00:12:46.879><c> decisions.</c>

00:12:47.919 --> 00:12:51.320
We<00:12:48.179><c> can</c><00:12:48.340><c> make</c><00:12:48.500><c> some</c><00:12:49.080><c> bad</c><00:12:49.500><c> decisions,</c><00:12:50.139><c> brothers</c><00:12:50.279><c> and</c><00:12:50.460><c> sisters.</c>

00:12:51.460 --> 00:12:54.840
You<00:12:51.879><c> may</c><00:12:52.159><c> have</c><00:12:52.379><c> made</c><00:12:52.600><c> some</c><00:12:52.860><c> bad</c><00:12:53.100><c> decisions</c><00:12:53.539><c> in</c><00:12:53.740><c> life,</c><00:12:54.559><c> right?</c>

00:12:54.940 --> 00:12:55.659
Hand<00:12:55.279><c> up.</c>

00:12:55.879 --> 00:12:58.259
Made<00:12:56.039><c> some</c><00:12:56.279><c> bad</c><00:12:56.600><c> decisions</c><00:12:57.080><c> in</c><00:12:57.419><c> life,</c><00:12:57.860><c> right?</c>

00:12:58.700 --> 00:13:00.480
But<00:12:58.860><c> the</c><00:12:59.100><c> fact</c><00:12:59.259><c> of</c><00:12:59.419><c> the</c><00:12:59.480><c> matter</c><00:12:59.720><c> is,</c><00:13:00.080><c> you</c>

00:13:00.480 --> 00:13:01.879
got<00:13:00.639><c> to</c><00:13:00.759><c> come</c><00:13:00.980><c> back</c><00:13:01.240><c> from</c><00:13:01.419><c> those</c><00:13:01.720><c> things.</c>

00:13:01.899 --> 00:13:03.320
You<00:13:02.019><c> can't</c><00:13:02.360><c> dwell</c><00:13:02.559><c> on</c><00:13:02.860><c> mistakes.</c>

00:13:03.320 --> 00:13:06.700
And<00:13:03.820><c> so</c><00:13:04.279><c> David,</c><00:13:05.860><c> Nabal's</c><00:13:06.200><c> going</c><00:13:06.360><c> to</c><00:13:06.519><c> die.</c>

00:13:06.799 --> 00:13:09.179
God's<00:13:07.220><c> hand</c><00:13:07.419><c> is</c><00:13:07.600><c> going</c><00:13:07.700><c> to</c><00:13:07.799><c> be</c><00:13:07.960><c> involved</c><00:13:08.340><c> in</c><00:13:08.460><c> this,</c><00:13:08.720><c> right?</c>

00:13:09.360 --> 00:13:11.100
Abigail's<00:13:09.840><c> going</c><00:13:09.940><c> to</c><00:13:10.000><c> tell</c><00:13:10.240><c> him</c><00:13:10.399><c> all</c><00:13:10.580><c> of</c><00:13:10.679><c> these</c><00:13:10.840><c> things.</c>

00:13:11.320 --> 00:13:14.480
He<00:13:11.500><c> had</c><00:13:11.659><c> a</c><00:13:11.700><c> big</c><00:13:11.980><c> drinking</c><00:13:13.299><c> bout,</c><00:13:13.539><c> big</c><00:13:13.879><c> potty.</c>

00:13:14.940 --> 00:13:17.559
He<00:13:15.139><c> overindulged,</c><00:13:16.059><c> so</c><00:13:16.059><c> obviously</c><00:13:16.299><c> he</c><00:13:16.399><c> was</c><00:13:16.580><c> completely</c><00:13:17.120><c> wasted,</c>

00:13:17.679 --> 00:13:19.240
or<00:13:17.860><c> whatever</c><00:13:18.120><c> word</c><00:13:18.419><c> you</c><00:13:18.580><c> want</c><00:13:18.759><c> to</c><00:13:18.940><c> use.</c>

00:13:19.600 --> 00:13:21.919
And<00:13:19.820><c> he</c><00:13:19.940><c> woke</c><00:13:20.220><c> up,</c><00:13:20.559><c> and</c><00:13:20.700><c> he's</c><00:13:21.059><c> told</c><00:13:21.279><c> all</c><00:13:21.559><c> this</c><00:13:21.679><c> stuff</c>

00:13:21.919 --> 00:13:24.840
in<00:13:22.080><c> the</c><00:13:22.139><c> sense</c><00:13:22.259><c> that</c><00:13:22.740><c> he</c><00:13:23.059><c> became</c><00:13:23.500><c> as</c><00:13:23.799><c> a</c><00:13:23.980><c> stone.</c>

00:13:25.759 --> 00:13:28.500
Sounds<00:13:25.960><c> like</c><00:13:26.139><c> he</c><00:13:26.500><c> stroked</c><00:13:26.779><c> out</c><00:13:27.100><c> or</c><00:13:27.179><c> something</c><00:13:27.480><c> like</c><00:13:27.759><c> that.</c>

00:13:28.659 --> 00:13:31.879
And<00:13:28.659><c> then</c><00:13:28.740><c> a</c><00:13:29.419><c> couple</c><00:13:29.500><c> days</c><00:13:30.580><c> later,</c><00:13:30.940><c> he</c><00:13:31.100><c> ended</c><00:13:31.360><c> up</c><00:13:31.620><c> dying.</c>

00:13:31.879 --> 00:13:33.559
So<00:13:32.179><c> the</c><00:13:32.320><c> whole</c><00:13:32.620><c> thing</c><00:13:32.840><c> took</c><00:13:33.120><c> place.</c>

00:13:34.039 --> 00:13:35.940
David<00:13:34.240><c> comes</c><00:13:34.559><c> out</c><00:13:35.220><c> great.</c>

00:13:36.000 --> 00:13:37.759
He<00:13:36.100><c> actually</c><00:13:36.460><c> gets</c><00:13:36.720><c> everything.</c>

00:13:39.000 --> 00:13:40.159
And<00:13:39.100><c> he</c><00:13:39.480><c> builds</c><00:13:39.820><c> up.</c>

00:13:40.179 --> 00:13:43.899
He's<00:13:40.559><c> slowly</c><00:13:40.879><c> building</c><00:13:41.320><c> up</c><00:13:41.639><c> wealth</c><00:13:41.940><c> and</c><00:13:42.200><c> power</c><00:13:42.539><c> in</c><00:13:42.740><c> this</c><00:13:42.840><c> situation.</c>

00:13:43.960 --> 00:13:47.899
Mary's<00:13:44.460><c> Abigail</c><00:13:44.779><c> has</c><00:13:45.080><c> all</c><00:13:45.559><c> of</c><00:13:45.899><c> Abigail's</c><00:13:46.460><c> wealth</c><00:13:46.679><c> now.</c>

00:13:49.200 --> 00:13:49.720
There<00:13:49.379><c> you</c><00:13:49.519><c> go.</c>

00:13:49.799 --> 00:13:51.440
David's<00:13:50.179><c> in</c><00:13:50.299><c> a</c><00:13:50.460><c> different</c><00:13:50.659><c> situation</c><00:13:51.240><c> now.</c>

00:13:54.220 --> 00:13:57.500
He's<00:13:54.600><c> becoming</c><00:13:54.980><c> more</c><00:13:55.399><c> powerful</c><00:13:55.840><c> down</c><00:13:56.240><c> in</c><00:13:56.460><c> the</c><00:13:56.639><c> south,</c>

00:14:04.120 --> 00:14:06.620
David's<00:14:04.620><c> growing</c><00:14:04.940><c> more</c><00:14:06.080><c> powerful.</c>

I<00:14:13.480><c> would</c><00:14:13.700><c> say.</c>

00:14:14.919 --> 00:14:17.320
Questions,<00:14:15.500><c> comments</c><00:14:15.799><c> on</c><00:14:16.019><c> any</c><00:14:16.279><c> of</c><00:14:16.440><c> this?</c>

00:14:19.379 --> 00:14:20.379
OK.

00:14:21.840 --> 00:14:22.259
All<00:14:22.039><c> right.</c>

00:14:22.360 --> 00:14:23.759
Second<00:14:22.700><c> act</c><00:14:23.179><c> of</c><00:14:23.399><c> mercy.</c>

00:14:23.820 --> 00:14:24.840
This<00:14:24.039><c> one's</c><00:14:24.340><c> pretty</c><00:14:24.559><c> good.</c>

00:14:24.879 --> 00:14:26.980
I<00:14:25.019><c> always</c><00:14:25.259><c> liked</c><00:14:25.480><c> this</c><00:14:25.679><c> when</c><00:14:25.820><c> I</c><00:14:25.940><c> was</c><00:14:26.120><c> a</c><00:14:26.279><c> kid.</c>

00:14:27.159 --> 00:14:28.000
Here<00:14:27.379><c> we</c><00:14:27.639><c> go.</c>

00:14:28.279 --> 00:14:29.200
Saul's<00:14:28.779><c> back</c><00:14:28.940><c> to</c><00:14:29.120><c> his</c><00:14:29.200><c> old</c><00:14:29.200><c> man.</c>

00:14:29.200 --> 00:14:30.039
He's<00:14:29.200><c> got</c><00:14:29.200><c> his</c><00:14:29.200><c> old</c><00:14:29.320><c> tricks</c><00:14:29.659><c> again.</c>

00:14:30.200 --> 00:14:31.840
Oh,<00:14:30.360><c> now</c><00:14:30.500><c> I'm</c><00:14:30.639><c> going</c><00:14:30.679><c> to</c><00:14:30.740><c> get</c><00:14:30.860><c> David</c><00:14:31.200><c> this</c><00:14:31.539><c> time.</c>

00:14:32.279 --> 00:14:34.019
And<00:14:32.539><c> so</c><00:14:32.700><c> they're</c><00:14:32.980><c> all</c><00:14:33.279><c> stretched</c><00:14:33.580><c> out.</c>

00:14:34.159 --> 00:14:36.220
They're<00:14:34.639><c> taking</c><00:14:34.879><c> a</c><00:14:35.559><c> sleep.</c>

00:14:36.480 --> 00:14:40.419
And<00:14:36.480><c> so</c><00:14:37.240><c> the</c><00:14:37.779><c> king,</c><00:14:38.799><c> just</c><00:14:39.059><c> think</c><00:14:39.240><c> of</c><00:14:39.340><c> it</c><00:14:39.460><c> like</c><00:14:39.580><c> I'm</c><00:14:39.779><c> a</c><00:14:40.000><c> spoke</c><00:14:40.220><c> of</c>

00:14:40.419 --> 00:14:40.559
a<00:14:40.480><c> wheel.</c>

00:14:40.580 --> 00:14:44.820
The<00:14:40.720><c> most</c><00:14:41.039><c> important</c><00:14:41.539><c> parts</c><00:14:42.120><c> of</c><00:14:42.759><c> an</c><00:14:42.960><c> encampment</c><00:14:43.580><c> were</c><00:14:43.799><c> in</c><00:14:43.960><c> the</c><00:14:44.100><c> middle.</c>

00:14:44.940 --> 00:14:48.740
The<00:14:45.200><c> further</c><00:14:45.500><c> you</c><00:14:45.759><c> got</c><00:14:45.980><c> out,</c><00:14:46.519><c> the</c><00:14:46.720><c> less</c><00:14:47.019><c> valuable</c><00:14:47.639><c> you</c><00:14:48.019><c> were.</c>

00:14:49.160 --> 00:14:52.340
So<00:14:49.680><c> Saul</c><00:14:50.200><c> and</c><00:14:50.559><c> Abner</c><00:14:50.879><c> and</c><00:14:51.039><c> everybody</c><00:14:51.500><c> was</c><00:14:51.740><c> in</c><00:14:52.019><c> the</c><00:14:52.200><c> middle.</c>

00:14:52.440 --> 00:14:54.419
Everybody<00:14:52.799><c> else</c><00:14:53.100><c> was</c><00:14:53.340><c> around.</c>

00:14:54.500 --> 00:14:55.620
David<00:14:54.940><c> and</c><00:14:55.179><c> his</c><00:14:55.419><c> men.</c>

00:14:55.860 --> 00:14:57.840
I<00:14:55.960><c> think</c><00:14:56.120><c> it</c><00:14:56.200><c> was</c><00:14:56.340><c> his</c><00:14:56.519><c> nephews</c><00:14:57.019><c> he</c><00:14:57.340><c> went</c><00:14:57.539><c> with.</c>

00:14:57.840 --> 00:14:59.340
Abishai<00:14:58.879><c> was</c><00:14:59.100><c> with</c><00:14:59.220><c> him.</c>

00:14:59.419 --> 00:14:59.799
I<00:14:59.419><c> can't</c><00:14:59.559><c> remember.</c>

00:14:59.960 --> 00:15:01.940
But<00:15:00.059><c> anyways,</c><00:15:00.299><c> it's</c><00:15:00.500><c> in</c><00:15:00.620><c> the</c><00:15:00.799><c> account</c><00:15:00.980><c> in</c><00:15:01.120><c> the</c><00:15:01.240><c> 26th</c><00:15:01.759><c> chapter</c>

00:15:01.940 --> 00:15:02.480
of<00:15:02.100><c> 1</c><00:15:02.299><c> Saul.</c>

00:15:02.879 --> 00:15:05.580
But<00:15:03.019><c> they</c><00:15:03.220><c> snuck</c><00:15:03.480><c> into</c><00:15:03.799><c> Saul's</c><00:15:04.240><c> camp</c><00:15:04.519><c> at</c><00:15:04.779><c> night.</c>

00:15:06.600 --> 00:15:08.740
And<00:15:06.759><c> this</c><00:15:07.519><c> is</c><00:15:07.720><c> why,</c><00:15:08.100><c> brothers</c><00:15:08.320><c> and</c><00:15:08.580><c> sisters,</c>

00:15:08.740 --> 00:15:10.960
you<00:15:08.940><c> had</c><00:15:09.200><c> centuries</c><00:15:09.759><c> of</c><00:15:10.080><c> security</c><00:15:10.600><c> around</c>

00:15:10.960 --> 00:15:12.840
to<00:15:11.500><c> prevent</c><00:15:11.899><c> this</c><00:15:12.200><c> from</c><00:15:12.480><c> happening.</c>

00:15:13.340 --> 00:15:15.700
People<00:15:13.620><c> would</c><00:15:13.960><c> send</c><00:15:14.220><c> in</c><00:15:14.519><c> assassins</c><00:15:15.159><c> all</c><00:15:15.399><c> the</c><00:15:15.580><c> time</c>

00:15:15.700 --> 00:15:17.139
to<00:15:15.860><c> try</c><00:15:16.019><c> to</c><00:15:16.240><c> kill</c><00:15:16.399><c> another</c><00:15:16.720><c> leader.</c>

00:15:17.539 --> 00:15:20.100
Happened<00:15:17.799><c> all</c><00:15:18.059><c> the</c><00:15:18.279><c> time,</c><00:15:18.460><c> assassins.</c>

00:15:20.840 --> 00:15:23.500
We<00:15:21.360><c> think</c><00:15:21.639><c> about</c><00:15:22.019><c> special</c><00:15:22.460><c> forces</c><00:15:22.980><c> today</c>

00:15:23.500 --> 00:15:25.500
and<00:15:23.679><c> the</c><00:15:23.940><c> training</c><00:15:24.159><c> that</c><00:15:24.340><c> goes</c><00:15:24.559><c> into,</c><00:15:24.860><c> let's</c><00:15:25.120><c> say,</c>

00:15:25.500 --> 00:15:28.799
Delta<00:15:26.019><c> Force</c><00:15:26.620><c> or</c><00:15:27.600><c> Navy</c><00:15:28.279><c> SEALs.</c>

00:15:28.799 --> 00:15:30.440
Just<00:15:29.019><c> think</c><00:15:29.220><c> about</c><00:15:29.440><c> the</c><00:15:29.679><c> training.</c>

00:15:30.700 --> 00:15:34.940
There<00:15:30.940><c> were</c><00:15:31.179><c> guys</c><00:15:31.700><c> like</c><00:15:32.139><c> those</c><00:15:32.480><c> Navy</c><00:15:32.960><c> SEALs</c><00:15:33.759><c> in</c><00:15:33.960><c> the</c><00:15:34.159><c> ancient</c><00:15:34.519><c> world.</c>

00:15:35.240 --> 00:15:37.600
They<00:15:35.480><c> just</c><00:15:35.860><c> had</c><00:15:36.120><c> a</c><00:15:36.279><c> knack</c><00:15:36.500><c> for</c><00:15:36.799><c> fighting.</c>

00:15:37.919 --> 00:15:39.320
You<00:15:38.059><c> know</c><00:15:38.220><c> guys</c><00:15:38.539><c> like</c><00:15:38.879><c> that?</c>

00:15:39.419 --> 00:15:41.179
They<00:15:39.960><c> loved</c><00:15:40.240><c> to</c><00:15:40.480><c> fight.</c>

00:15:41.240 --> 00:15:43.019
These<00:15:41.580><c> guys,</c><00:15:42.100><c> they</c><00:15:42.639><c> went</c><00:15:42.820><c> in.</c>

00:15:43.019 --> 00:15:44.080
They<00:15:43.139><c> were</c><00:15:43.399><c> real</c><00:15:43.799><c> sneaky.</c>

00:15:44.159 --> 00:15:45.480
They<00:15:44.279><c> knew</c><00:15:44.460><c> everything</c><00:15:44.840><c> about</c><00:15:45.179><c> war.</c>

00:15:45.519 --> 00:15:46.820
They<00:15:45.639><c> knew</c><00:15:45.799><c> the</c><00:15:46.139><c> secret</c><00:15:46.440><c> trails.</c>

00:15:47.100 --> 00:15:49.080
They<00:15:47.240><c> knew</c><00:15:47.440><c> all</c><00:15:47.740><c> the</c><00:15:48.000><c> secrets</c><00:15:48.340><c> of</c><00:15:48.639><c> war.</c>

00:15:49.480 --> 00:15:52.600
And<00:15:49.679><c> so</c><00:15:49.799><c> you</c><00:15:50.000><c> had</c><00:15:50.220><c> to</c><00:15:50.399><c> be</c><00:15:50.620><c> ready</c><00:15:50.799><c> to</c><00:15:51.039><c> prevent</c><00:15:51.419><c> these</c><00:15:51.820><c> guys</c><00:15:52.059><c> from</c><00:15:52.360><c> coming</c>

00:15:52.600 --> 00:15:55.340
into<00:15:52.899><c> your</c><00:15:53.179><c> camp,</c><00:15:53.960><c> particularly</c><00:15:54.460><c> if</c><00:15:54.639><c> you're</c><00:15:54.840><c> going</c><00:15:55.039><c> out</c>

00:15:55.340 --> 00:15:58.659
against<00:15:55.659><c> an</c><00:15:56.879><c> enemy</c><00:15:57.279><c> like</c><00:15:57.639><c> David.</c>

00:15:58.740 --> 00:16:00.700
And<00:15:58.919><c> sure</c><00:15:59.139><c> enough,</c><00:15:59.419><c> what</c><00:15:59.620><c> happens?</c>

00:16:01.039 --> 00:16:04.320
They<00:16:01.159><c> snuck</c><00:16:01.480><c> right</c><00:16:01.740><c> in</c><00:16:02.000><c> there,</c><00:16:02.200><c> right</c><00:16:02.559><c> up</c><00:16:02.840><c> to</c><00:16:03.059><c> Saul,</c><00:16:03.519><c> imagine.</c>

00:16:05.139 --> 00:16:08.840
And<00:16:05.519><c> they</c><00:16:05.779><c> could</c><00:16:05.919><c> have</c><00:16:06.039><c> just,</c><00:16:07.879><c> I</c><00:16:08.299><c> think</c>

00:16:08.840 --> 00:16:11.720
Abishai<00:16:09.379><c> says,</c><00:16:09.860><c> hey,</c><00:16:10.019><c> just</c><00:16:10.259><c> let</c><00:16:10.379><c> me</c><00:16:10.980><c> strike</c><00:16:11.259><c> him</c><00:16:11.500><c> once.</c>

00:16:11.740 --> 00:16:12.940
I<00:16:11.879><c> won't</c><00:16:12.080><c> do</c><00:16:12.240><c> it</c><00:16:12.399><c> a</c><00:16:12.559><c> second</c><00:16:12.740><c> time.</c>

00:16:12.960 --> 00:16:15.220
I'll<00:16:13.100><c> do</c><00:16:13.240><c> it</c><00:16:13.480><c> once</c><00:16:14.299><c> with</c><00:16:14.639><c> my</c><00:16:14.960><c> spear.</c>

00:16:15.559 --> 00:16:19.159
And<00:16:15.720><c> this</c><00:16:15.899><c> is</c><00:16:16.080><c> where</c><00:16:16.200><c> he</c><00:16:16.440><c> says,</c><00:16:17.779><c> you</c><00:16:17.940><c> sons</c><00:16:18.460><c> of</c><00:16:18.720><c> Zerui</c>

00:16:19.159 --> 00:16:21.379
are<00:16:19.379><c> too</c><00:16:19.700><c> strong,</c><00:16:20.179><c> too</c><00:16:20.519><c> hard</c><00:16:20.899><c> for</c><00:16:21.139><c> me.</c>

00:16:21.759 --> 00:16:23.419
It's<00:16:21.960><c> tough</c><00:16:22.179><c> dealing</c><00:16:22.460><c> with</c><00:16:22.679><c> these</c><00:16:22.980><c> guys.</c>

00:16:23.419 --> 00:16:25.700
They<00:16:23.759><c> wanted</c><00:16:24.080><c> just</c><00:16:24.379><c> to</c><00:16:24.639><c> slaughter</c><00:16:24.840><c> everything.</c>

00:16:25.720 --> 00:16:30.840
On<00:16:25.899><c> some</c><00:16:26.419><c> level,</c><00:16:27.139><c> brothers</c><00:16:27.259><c> and</c><00:16:27.600><c> sisters,</c><00:16:29.039><c> it</c><00:16:29.299><c> made</c><00:16:29.639><c> sense.</c>

00:16:31.000 --> 00:16:33.659
And<00:16:31.240><c> they</c><00:16:31.460><c> even</c><00:16:31.799><c> said</c><00:16:32.019><c> this</c><00:16:32.360><c> in</c><00:16:32.519><c> the</c><00:16:32.740><c> account.</c>

00:16:33.820 --> 00:16:39.080
The<00:16:34.259><c> Lord</c><00:16:35.059><c> has</c><00:16:35.860><c> given</c><00:16:36.220><c> you,</c><00:16:36.600><c> given</c><00:16:37.080><c> Saul</c><00:16:37.460><c> into</c><00:16:37.820><c> your</c><00:16:38.139><c> hand.</c>

00:16:39.120 --> 00:16:40.200
For<00:16:39.259><c> years.</c>

00:16:40.639 --> 00:16:41.779
How<00:16:40.919><c> cold.</c>

00:16:42.320 --> 00:16:43.840
One<00:16:42.679><c> second</c><00:16:43.019><c> changes</c><00:16:43.480><c> everything.</c>

00:16:43.980 --> 00:16:45.080
David<00:16:44.200><c> wouldn't</c><00:16:44.419><c> do</c><00:16:44.659><c> it.</c>

00:16:45.500 --> 00:16:48.019
Wouldn't<00:16:45.820><c> raise</c><00:16:46.139><c> his</c><00:16:46.379><c> hand</c><00:16:46.559><c> to</c><00:16:46.740><c> the</c><00:16:46.840><c> Lord's</c><00:16:47.220><c> anointed.</c>

00:16:48.200 --> 00:16:50.500
But<00:16:48.879><c> it's</c><00:16:49.399><c> another</c><00:16:49.639><c> act</c><00:16:49.899><c> of</c><00:16:50.139><c> mercy.</c>

00:16:50.500 --> 00:16:54.379
Twice<00:16:51.179><c> now</c><00:16:51.559><c> David</c><00:16:51.879><c> has</c><00:16:52.220><c> saved</c><00:16:52.500><c> Saul</c><00:16:52.799><c> from</c><00:16:53.159><c> death.</c>

00:16:55.879 --> 00:16:59.000
You<00:16:56.000><c> wonder</c><00:16:56.320><c> what</c><00:16:56.500><c> their</c><00:16:56.679><c> mindset,</c><00:16:57.519><c> too,</c><00:16:57.600><c> David's</c><00:16:58.799><c> men.</c>

00:16:59.460 --> 00:17:00.759
This<00:16:59.700><c> is</c><00:16:59.940><c> the</c><00:16:59.940><c> second</c><00:17:00.159><c> time.</c>

00:17:01.059 --> 00:17:03.179
We're<00:17:01.259><c> going</c><00:17:01.299><c> to</c><00:17:01.320><c> go</c><00:17:01.519><c> back</c><00:17:01.700><c> to</c><00:17:01.820><c> the</c><00:17:02.000><c> cave</c><00:17:02.279><c> now.</c>

00:17:03.259 --> 00:17:05.440
Their<00:17:03.580><c> life</c><00:17:03.899><c> wasn't</c><00:17:04.279><c> great.</c>

00:17:06.559 --> 00:17:09.160
But<00:17:06.740><c> I</c><00:17:06.839><c> think</c><00:17:06.980><c> it</c><00:17:07.140><c> just</c><00:17:07.380><c> shows</c><00:17:07.599><c> David's</c><00:17:08.220><c> leadership</c>

00:17:09.519 --> 00:17:11.539
and<00:17:10.039><c> the</c><00:17:10.440><c> strength</c><00:17:10.740><c> of</c><00:17:10.940><c> his</c><00:17:11.160><c> leadership</c>

00:17:11.539 --> 00:17:15.839
and<00:17:11.700><c> the</c><00:17:11.940><c> power</c><00:17:12.319><c> that</c><00:17:12.660><c> he</c><00:17:12.859><c> had</c><00:17:13.059><c> and</c><00:17:13.319><c> how</c><00:17:14.880><c> exalted</c><00:17:15.579><c> he</c>

00:17:15.839 --> 00:17:17.460
was<00:17:16.160><c> in</c><00:17:16.339><c> the</c><00:17:16.539><c> eyes</c><00:17:16.759><c> of</c><00:17:17.000><c> his</c><00:17:17.200><c> men.</c>

00:17:17.680 --> 00:17:18.240
They<00:17:17.980><c> followed.</c>

00:17:18.319 --> 00:17:19.779
They<00:17:18.460><c> did</c><00:17:18.519><c> whatever</c><00:17:18.819><c> he</c><00:17:19.079><c> said.</c>

00:17:19.599 --> 00:17:21.579
I'm<00:17:19.859><c> with</c><00:17:20.140><c> David</c><00:17:20.420><c> to</c><00:17:20.599><c> the</c><00:17:20.779><c> death.</c>

00:17:21.640 --> 00:17:23.599
His<00:17:21.880><c> mighty</c><00:17:22.119><c> men</c><00:17:22.380><c> said</c><00:17:22.599><c> that.</c>

00:17:23.819 --> 00:17:26.180
Who<00:17:24.299><c> were</c><00:17:24.680><c> Gentiles,</c><00:17:25.319><c> by</c><00:17:25.579><c> the</c><00:17:25.759><c> way?</c>

00:17:26.619 --> 00:17:29.059
The<00:17:26.799><c> Cherithites</c><00:17:27.259><c> and</c><00:17:27.380><c> the</c><00:17:27.519><c> Perithites</c><00:17:27.940><c> were</c><00:17:28.200><c> not</c><00:17:28.640><c> Israeli.</c>

00:17:29.200 --> 00:17:30.019
They<00:17:29.259><c> were</c><00:17:29.440><c> not</c><00:17:29.660><c> Hebrews.</c>

00:17:30.460 --> 00:17:31.920
They<00:17:30.660><c> were</c><00:17:30.660><c> most</c><00:17:30.880><c> likely</c><00:17:31.259><c> Philistines,</c>

00:17:32.039 --> 00:17:33.960
like<00:17:32.240><c> a</c><00:17:32.440><c> branch</c><00:17:32.660><c> of</c><00:17:32.819><c> the</c><00:17:32.960><c> Philistines.</c>

00:17:34.420 --> 00:17:36.039
And<00:17:34.940><c> this</c><00:17:35.160><c> is</c><00:17:35.279><c> what</c><00:17:35.480><c> David</c><00:17:35.779><c> said.</c>

00:17:36.119 --> 00:17:39.299
Who<00:17:36.599><c> can</c><00:17:37.019><c> stretch</c><00:17:37.319><c> out</c><00:17:37.559><c> his</c><00:17:37.799><c> hand</c><00:17:38.019><c> against</c><00:17:38.339><c> the</c><00:17:38.579><c> Lord's</c><00:17:38.980><c> anointed</c>

00:17:39.299 --> 00:17:41.319
and<00:17:39.759><c> be</c><00:17:40.059><c> guiltless?</c>

00:17:41.640 --> 00:17:43.619
And<00:17:41.779><c> then</c><00:17:42.059><c> Saul</c><00:17:42.299><c> admits</c><00:17:42.700><c> his</c><00:17:42.960><c> sin</c><00:17:43.079><c> once</c><00:17:43.480><c> more.</c>

00:17:43.720 --> 00:17:44.980
And<00:17:43.720><c> I</c><00:17:43.779><c> think</c><00:17:43.980><c> after</c><00:17:44.299><c> this,</c><00:17:44.720><c> right</c><00:17:44.740><c> around,</c>

00:17:45.240 --> 00:17:46.660
Saul<00:17:45.519><c> stops</c><00:17:45.920><c> chasing</c><00:17:46.299><c> David.</c>

00:17:46.660 --> 00:17:48.160
He<00:17:47.339><c> finally</c><00:17:47.740><c> gets</c><00:17:48.039><c> it.</c>

00:17:48.200 --> 00:17:50.000
You're<00:17:48.519><c> not</c><00:17:48.700><c> going</c><00:17:48.799><c> to</c><00:17:48.900><c> get</c><00:17:49.000><c> this</c><00:17:49.299><c> guy.</c>

00:17:50.319 --> 00:17:51.480
And<00:17:50.920><c> that's</c><00:17:51.220><c> what</c><00:17:51.359><c> happened.</c>

00:17:51.539 --> 00:17:55.380
But<00:17:51.680><c> he</c><00:17:51.740><c> gets</c><00:17:51.980><c> his</c><00:17:52.440><c> spear</c><00:17:52.880><c> and</c><00:17:53.059><c> his</c><00:17:53.279><c> crews</c><00:17:53.519><c> of</c><00:17:54.380><c> water,</c>

00:17:56.380 --> 00:17:59.720
like<00:17:56.579><c> two</c><00:17:56.960><c> very</c><00:17:57.420><c> intimate</c><00:17:57.859><c> things</c><00:17:58.359><c> for</c><00:17:58.740><c> a</c><00:17:58.859><c> king,</c><00:17:59.119><c> his</c><00:17:59.440><c> crews</c>

00:17:59.720 --> 00:18:01.359
of<00:18:00.140><c> water.</c>

00:18:01.920 --> 00:18:04.339
This<00:18:02.119><c> is</c><00:18:02.319><c> how</c><00:18:02.339><c> you</c><00:18:02.579><c> poison</c><00:18:02.960><c> people,</c><00:18:03.839><c> right?</c>

00:18:04.880 --> 00:18:09.440
He's<00:18:05.480><c> showing</c><00:18:06.079><c> Saul</c><00:18:06.519><c> and</c><00:18:06.880><c> Abner</c><00:18:07.160><c> how</c><00:18:07.500><c> close</c><00:18:08.220><c> Saul</c><00:18:08.619><c> was</c><00:18:08.980><c> to</c><00:18:09.220><c> death.</c>

00:18:09.819 --> 00:18:13.980
And<00:18:10.099><c> David</c><00:18:10.359><c> calls</c><00:18:10.660><c> out</c><00:18:10.900><c> to</c><00:18:11.160><c> Abner,</c><00:18:11.579><c> taunts</c><00:18:12.039><c> Abner</c><00:18:12.500><c> a</c><00:18:12.640><c> little</c><00:18:12.940><c> bit.</c>

00:18:14.299 --> 00:18:16.799
Where<00:18:14.819><c> is</c><00:18:14.980><c> the</c><00:18:15.140><c> captain</c><00:18:15.440><c> of</c><00:18:15.640><c> the</c><00:18:15.859><c> army,</c><00:18:16.339><c> Abner?</c>

00:18:17.079 --> 00:18:18.779
He<00:18:17.339><c> didn't</c><00:18:17.339><c> even</c><00:18:17.579><c> protect</c><00:18:17.859><c> your</c><00:18:18.099><c> king</c><00:18:18.279><c> in</c><00:18:18.420><c> one</c><00:18:18.599><c> job.</c>

00:18:18.779 --> 00:18:20.940
He<00:18:18.880><c> could</c><00:18:19.039><c> have</c><00:18:19.160><c> been</c><00:18:19.319><c> killed</c><00:18:19.579><c> for</c><00:18:19.740><c> that,</c><00:18:19.940><c> by</c><00:18:20.160><c> the</c><00:18:20.319><c> way,</c>

00:18:21.279 --> 00:18:23.680
leaving<00:18:21.480><c> the</c><00:18:21.720><c> king</c><00:18:21.920><c> exposed</c><00:18:22.420><c> like</c><00:18:22.779><c> that.</c>

00:18:27.039 --> 00:18:31.500
David<00:18:27.559><c> is</c><00:18:27.819><c> given</c><00:18:28.079><c> Ziklag</c><00:18:28.779><c> by</c><00:18:29.500><c> Achish</c><00:18:29.940><c> of</c><00:18:30.180><c> Gath.</c>

00:18:31.859 --> 00:18:34.299
And<00:18:31.980><c> this</c><00:18:32.819><c> is</c><00:18:33.000><c> interesting,</c><00:18:33.539><c> because</c><00:18:33.839><c> David</c>

00:18:34.299 --> 00:18:37.559
is<00:18:34.539><c> going</c><00:18:34.680><c> to</c><00:18:34.839><c> use</c><00:18:35.019><c> this</c><00:18:35.380><c> Ziklag</c><00:18:35.819><c> as</c><00:18:36.059><c> the</c><00:18:36.319><c> base</c><00:18:36.500><c> of</c><00:18:36.819><c> operations</c>

00:18:37.559 --> 00:18:40.779
to<00:18:38.140><c> go</c><00:18:38.299><c> and</c><00:18:38.599><c> attack</c><00:18:38.960><c> the</c><00:18:39.240><c> Amalekites.</c>

00:18:40.940 --> 00:18:44.079
But<00:18:41.539><c> he</c><00:18:41.740><c> doesn't</c><00:18:42.339><c> tell</c><00:18:43.079><c> Achish</c><00:18:43.559><c> that</c><00:18:43.779><c> he's</c>

00:18:44.079 --> 00:18:45.460
attacking<00:18:44.539><c> the</c><00:18:44.859><c> Amalekites.</c>

00:18:45.500 --> 00:18:46.779
Who<00:18:45.640><c> does</c><00:18:45.839><c> he</c><00:18:46.019><c> say</c><00:18:46.160><c> he's</c><00:18:46.480><c> attacking?</c>

00:18:46.900 --> 00:18:48.980
Anybody<00:18:47.200><c> remember</c><00:18:47.779><c> this</c><00:18:48.099><c> account?</c>

00:18:50.220 --> 00:18:51.559
What's<00:18:50.559><c> that,</c><00:18:51.059><c> Ma?</c>

00:18:51.880 --> 00:18:54.039
Yeah,<00:18:52.460><c> he</c><00:18:52.559><c> says</c><00:18:52.799><c> he's</c><00:18:53.420><c> not</c><00:18:53.440><c> the</c><00:18:53.700><c> Philistines.</c>

00:18:54.079 --> 00:18:59.240
He's<00:18:54.460><c> attacking</c><00:18:55.700><c> Israelites</c><00:18:56.500><c> on</c><00:18:57.200><c> behalf</c><00:18:57.660><c> of</c><00:18:57.819><c> the</c><00:18:58.039><c> Philistines.</c>

00:18:59.339 --> 00:19:01.680
And<00:18:59.480><c> Achish</c><00:18:59.740><c> says</c><00:19:00.059><c> there's</c><00:19:00.319><c> no</c><00:19:00.619><c> way</c><00:19:00.859><c> David</c><00:19:01.240><c> could</c><00:19:01.460><c> ever</c>

00:19:01.680 --> 00:19:02.500
come<00:19:01.940><c> back</c><00:19:02.140><c> from</c><00:19:02.319><c> this.</c>

00:19:02.680 --> 00:19:04.140
He's<00:19:03.039><c> my</c><00:19:03.279><c> servant</c><00:19:03.680><c> forever.</c>

00:19:04.559 --> 00:19:05.700
He's<00:19:04.900><c> a</c><00:19:05.059><c> vassal.</c>

00:19:06.000 --> 00:19:08.599
In<00:19:06.299><c> Achish's</c><00:19:06.859><c> mind,</c><00:19:07.019><c> he's</c><00:19:07.240><c> my</c><00:19:07.500><c> vassal.</c>

00:19:08.920 --> 00:19:11.160
He's<00:19:09.220><c> killing</c><00:19:09.579><c> his</c><00:19:09.819><c> own</c><00:19:10.099><c> people.</c>

00:19:11.640 --> 00:19:12.559
I<00:19:11.819><c> got</c><00:19:12.039><c> him</c><00:19:12.200><c> now.</c>

00:19:12.859 --> 00:19:13.759
But<00:19:13.019><c> he</c><00:19:13.240><c> wasn't.</c>

00:19:14.079 --> 00:19:18.440
He<00:19:14.220><c> was</c><00:19:14.480><c> actually</c><00:19:14.960><c> assaulting</c><00:19:15.960><c> the</c><00:19:16.200><c> Amalekites</c><00:19:16.940><c> down</c><00:19:17.440><c> south,</c>

00:19:18.720 --> 00:19:23.539
and<00:19:18.720><c> then</c><00:19:19.200><c> bringing</c><00:19:19.460><c> all</c><00:19:19.779><c> the</c><00:19:20.079><c> booty</c><00:19:20.519><c> to</c><00:19:21.680><c> his</c><00:19:21.940><c> kinsmen</c><00:19:22.460><c> in</c><00:19:22.740><c> Judah,</c>

00:19:23.599 --> 00:19:26.319
strengthening<00:19:23.980><c> those</c><00:19:24.380><c> ties,</c><00:19:25.019><c> while</c><00:19:25.160><c> telling</c><00:19:25.480><c> the</c><00:19:25.799><c> Philistines,</c>

00:19:26.759 --> 00:19:29.700
oh,<00:19:27.039><c> yeah,</c><00:19:27.319><c> killing</c><00:19:27.619><c> your</c><00:19:27.900><c> enemies,</c><00:19:28.440><c> the</c><00:19:28.799><c> Hebrews,</c><00:19:29.279><c> definitely.</c>

00:19:29.819 --> 00:19:31.059
I<00:19:29.980><c> hate</c><00:19:30.220><c> the</c><00:19:30.339><c> Hebrews,</c><00:19:31.059><c> too.</c>

00:19:31.559 --> 00:19:32.180
But<00:19:31.720><c> he</c><00:19:31.819><c> wasn't.</c>

00:19:32.220 --> 00:19:33.839
He<00:19:32.319><c> was</c><00:19:32.539><c> building</c><00:19:32.920><c> those</c><00:19:33.299><c> relationships,</c>

00:19:34.079 --> 00:19:38.019
actually<00:19:34.599><c> making</c><00:19:35.240><c> the</c><00:19:35.799><c> Israelites,</c><00:19:36.819><c> the</c><00:19:37.059><c> people</c><00:19:37.279><c> living</c><00:19:37.519><c> in</c><00:19:37.779><c> Judah,</c>

00:19:38.019 --> 00:19:40.859
stronger,<00:19:39.160><c> having</c><00:19:39.559><c> all</c><00:19:40.099><c> of</c><00:19:40.299><c> this</c><00:19:40.539><c> wealth</c>

00:19:40.859 --> 00:19:43.259
moved<00:19:41.240><c> into</c><00:19:42.059><c> the</c><00:19:42.220><c> area</c><00:19:42.640><c> by</c><00:19:42.920><c> David.</c>

00:19:43.299 --> 00:19:47.000
So<00:19:43.539><c> pretty</c><00:19:43.759><c> interesting</c><00:19:44.220><c> as</c><00:19:44.460><c> far</c><00:19:44.759><c> as</c><00:19:45.500><c> all</c><00:19:45.980><c> of</c><00:19:46.180><c> the</c><00:19:46.500><c> politics</c>

00:19:47.000 --> 00:19:48.839
that's<00:19:47.380><c> going</c><00:19:47.660><c> on</c><00:19:47.900><c> here.</c>

00:19:49.940 --> 00:19:53.380
So<00:19:49.980><c> big</c><00:19:50.440><c> battle</c><00:19:50.859><c> happens</c><00:19:51.440><c> at</c><00:19:51.980><c> Mount</c><00:19:52.279><c> Gilboa.</c>

00:19:53.519 --> 00:19:59.140
Saul,<00:19:53.740><c> God</c><00:19:54.039><c> has</c><00:19:54.359><c> completely</c><00:19:54.880><c> withdrawn</c><00:19:55.579><c> his</c><00:19:56.700><c> hand</c><00:19:57.400><c> from</c><00:19:58.220><c> Saul.</c>

00:19:59.240 --> 00:20:02.960
He<00:19:59.400><c> goes</c><00:19:59.700><c> and</c><00:19:59.839><c> makes</c><00:19:59.980><c> the</c><00:20:00.160><c> mistake,</c><00:20:00.519><c> goes</c><00:20:00.859><c> to</c><00:20:01.079><c> the</c><00:20:01.240><c> witch</c><00:20:01.420><c> of</c><00:20:01.660><c> Endor.</c>

00:20:03.519 --> 00:20:06.160
And<00:20:03.700><c> Samuel</c><00:20:04.200><c> says</c><00:20:04.759><c> he's</c><00:20:05.200><c> going</c><00:20:05.319><c> to</c><00:20:05.500><c> die</c><00:20:05.720><c> with</c><00:20:05.900><c> his.</c>

00:20:06.160 --> 00:20:07.460
And<00:20:06.400><c> that's</c><00:20:06.640><c> exactly</c><00:20:06.920><c> what</c><00:20:07.160><c> happens.</c>

00:20:07.460 --> 00:20:09.779
Massive<00:20:08.160><c> battle</c><00:20:08.500><c> on</c><00:20:08.720><c> Mount</c><00:20:09.019><c> Gilboa.</c>

00:20:12.380 --> 00:20:17.539
Both<00:20:12.900><c> Saul</c><00:20:13.420><c> and</c><00:20:13.960><c> his</c><00:20:14.220><c> sons</c><00:20:14.579><c> are</c><00:20:15.700><c> killed,</c><00:20:15.980><c> particularly</c><00:20:16.460><c> Jonathan.</c>

00:20:17.720 --> 00:20:21.220
And<00:20:17.920><c> David</c><00:20:18.119><c> has</c><00:20:18.480><c> a</c><00:20:18.700><c> big</c><00:20:19.240><c> limitation</c><00:20:19.980><c> in</c><00:20:20.440><c> the</c><00:20:20.599><c> first</c><00:20:20.839><c> chapter</c>

00:20:21.220 --> 00:20:23.680
of<00:20:21.460><c> Samuel,</c><00:20:22.319><c> the</c><00:20:22.519><c> second</c><00:20:22.759><c> Samuel.</c>

00:20:26.700 --> 00:20:28.380
Saul<00:20:26.980><c> is</c><00:20:27.140><c> going</c><00:20:27.240><c> to</c><00:20:27.420><c> fall</c><00:20:27.599><c> on</c><00:20:27.700><c> his</c><00:20:27.900><c> own</c><00:20:28.160><c> sword.</c>

00:20:28.480 --> 00:20:30.019
He<00:20:28.500><c> didn't</c><00:20:28.740><c> want</c><00:20:28.940><c> to</c><00:20:29.039><c> be</c><00:20:29.240><c> taken</c><00:20:29.500><c> alive,</c>

00:20:30.039 --> 00:20:32.880
because<00:20:30.519><c> they</c><00:20:30.920><c> would</c><00:20:31.079><c> have</c><00:20:31.240><c> tortured</c><00:20:31.559><c> him</c><00:20:31.819><c> to</c><00:20:32.000><c> death.</c>

00:20:33.299 --> 00:20:36.000
He<00:20:33.539><c> might</c><00:20:34.119><c> have</c><00:20:34.259><c> been</c><00:20:34.539><c> flayed</c><00:20:34.720><c> alive,</c><00:20:35.240><c> just</c><00:20:35.579><c> bad.</c>

00:20:36.000 --> 00:20:39.579
And<00:20:36.559><c> so</c><00:20:36.799><c> he's</c><00:20:37.059><c> like,</c><00:20:37.279><c> I'm</c><00:20:37.339><c> going</c><00:20:37.480><c> to</c><00:20:37.640><c> die</c><00:20:38.079><c> by</c><00:20:38.259><c> my</c><00:20:38.519><c> own</c><00:20:38.720><c> hand.</c>

00:20:41.019 --> 00:20:43.920
And<00:20:41.079><c> the</c><00:20:41.339><c> men</c><00:20:41.539><c> of</c><00:20:41.759><c> Jabesh</c><00:20:42.119><c> Gilead</c><00:20:42.500><c> put</c><00:20:42.720><c> their</c><00:20:43.000><c> lives</c><00:20:43.240><c> on</c><00:20:43.480><c> the</c><00:20:43.680><c> line</c>

00:20:43.920 --> 00:20:46.200
to<00:20:44.119><c> take</c><00:20:44.380><c> the</c><00:20:44.660><c> body</c><00:20:44.980><c> in</c><00:20:45.660><c> the</c><00:20:45.920><c> armors.</c>

00:20:46.240 --> 00:20:49.380
They<00:20:46.599><c> hung</c><00:20:46.779><c> the</c><00:20:47.079><c> armor</c><00:20:47.480><c> on</c><00:20:48.000><c> the</c><00:20:48.220><c> walls</c><00:20:48.559><c> and</c><00:20:48.740><c> the</c><00:20:48.920><c> bodies</c><00:20:49.160><c> on</c>

00:20:49.380 --> 00:20:50.380
the<00:20:49.559><c> wall.</c>

00:20:50.440 --> 00:20:52.319
Very<00:20:50.799><c> common</c><00:20:51.180><c> practice.</c>

00:20:52.460 --> 00:20:56.740
Even<00:20:52.720><c> up</c><00:20:53.140><c> to,</c><00:20:55.359><c> it's</c><00:20:55.640><c> happening</c><00:20:55.900><c> now,</c><00:20:56.579><c> actually,</c>

00:20:56.759 --> 00:20:58.720
in<00:20:57.400><c> the</c><00:20:57.460><c> Russian</c><00:20:57.799><c>-Ukrainian</c><00:20:58.480><c> War.</c>

00:20:58.880 --> 00:21:02.839
They<00:20:58.960><c> hang</c><00:20:59.640><c> body</c><00:21:00.339><c> parts</c><00:21:00.640><c> out</c><00:21:00.880><c> for</c><00:21:01.000><c> people</c><00:21:01.299><c> to</c><00:21:01.579><c> see,</c><00:21:01.839><c> brutality.</c>

00:21:04.099 --> 00:21:05.000
All<00:21:04.099><c> right.</c>

00:21:05.240 --> 00:21:05.779
Saul's<00:21:05.660><c> dead.</c>

00:21:05.779 --> 00:21:07.799
House<00:21:06.039><c> of</c><00:21:06.339><c> Saul,</c><00:21:06.940><c> gone.</c>

00:21:08.700 --> 00:21:10.960
David's<00:21:09.240><c> really</c><00:21:09.519><c> the</c><00:21:09.740><c> only</c><00:21:10.059><c> warrior</c><00:21:10.480><c> left.</c>

00:21:11.299 --> 00:21:14.859
We<00:21:11.640><c> have</c><00:21:11.839><c> a</c><00:21:12.119><c> major</c><00:21:12.500><c> political</c><00:21:13.079><c> crisis</c><00:21:13.519><c> on</c><00:21:13.839><c> our</c><00:21:14.119><c> hand.</c>

00:21:15.180 --> 00:21:18.279
This<00:21:15.539><c> confederacy</c><00:21:16.720><c> that</c><00:21:17.500><c> Saul</c><00:21:17.759><c> was</c><00:21:18.059><c> trying</c>

00:21:18.279 --> 00:21:21.319
to<00:21:18.559><c> build</c><00:21:18.740><c> into</c><00:21:19.039><c> one</c><00:21:19.319><c> nation</c><00:21:19.660><c> kind</c><00:21:20.000><c> of</c><00:21:20.299><c> fractures</c><00:21:20.819><c> now,</c>

00:21:21.579 --> 00:21:23.180
because<00:21:21.900><c> he's</c><00:21:22.200><c> dead.</c>

00:21:23.700 --> 00:21:28.359
It<00:21:23.859><c> was</c><00:21:24.160><c> really</c><00:21:24.519><c> like</c><00:21:25.200><c> a</c><00:21:25.460><c> lot</c><00:21:25.720><c> of</c><00:21:26.660><c> the</c><00:21:26.900><c> success</c><00:21:27.440><c> of</c><00:21:27.740><c> nations</c>

00:21:35.519 --> 00:21:38.779
So<00:21:35.680><c> if</c><00:21:35.779><c> you</c><00:21:35.940><c> had</c><00:21:36.039><c> a</c><00:21:36.200><c> good</c><00:21:36.359><c> king</c><00:21:36.779><c> who</c><00:21:37.400><c> was</c><00:21:37.680><c> wise</c><00:21:38.119><c> and</c><00:21:38.400><c> smart</c>

00:21:38.779 --> 00:21:41.680

00:21:55.619 --> 00:22:00.359
and<00:21:55.859><c> he</c><00:21:56.279><c> coalesced</c><00:21:56.960><c> them</c><00:21:57.660><c> into</c><00:21:58.099><c> a</c><00:21:59.460><c> pretty</c><00:21:59.460><c> powerful,</c>

00:22:04.960 --> 00:22:06.859
The<00:22:05.140><c> Hebrews</c><00:22:05.460><c> were</c><00:22:05.720><c> on</c><00:22:05.839><c> the</c><00:22:06.000><c> move.</c>

00:22:09.039 --> 00:22:12.200
And<00:22:09.180><c> they</c><00:22:09.359><c> wanted</c><00:22:09.720><c> access</c><00:22:10.359><c> to</c><00:22:11.339><c> the</c><00:22:11.599><c> Mediterranean,</c>

00:22:14.440 --> 00:22:16.859
But<00:22:14.720><c> this</c><00:22:14.960><c> was</c><00:22:15.200><c> a</c><00:22:15.279><c> bad</c><00:22:15.519><c> time,</c><00:22:15.859><c> because</c><00:22:16.200><c> the</c><00:22:16.319><c> king</c><00:22:16.539><c> of</c><00:22:16.720><c> Israel,</c>

00:22:21.900 --> 00:22:24.000
But<00:22:22.160><c> David</c><00:22:22.480><c> was</c><00:22:22.740><c> still</c><00:22:23.019><c> around.</c>

00:22:26.319 --> 00:22:28.299

00:22:32.319 --> 00:22:35.619
It<00:22:32.799><c> says</c><00:22:33.059><c> that</c><00:22:33.700><c> Israel</c><00:22:34.359><c> was</c><00:22:34.680><c> scattered.</c>

00:22:35.680 --> 00:22:37.019
They<00:22:35.839><c> were</c><00:22:36.079><c> scattered</c><00:22:36.420><c> into</c><00:22:36.680><c> the</c><00:22:36.880><c> hills.</c>

00:22:37.180 --> 00:22:37.759
They<00:22:37.200><c> took</c><00:22:37.440><c> off.</c>

00:22:37.779 --> 00:22:40.039
They<00:22:37.900><c> were</c><00:22:38.160><c> afraid</c><00:22:38.619><c> that</c><00:22:39.180><c> the</c><00:22:39.400><c> Philistines</c><00:22:39.759><c> were</c><00:22:39.940><c> going</c>
