00:13:18.500 --> 00:13:21.779
For<00:13:18.559><c> the</c><00:13:18.740><c> Lord</c><00:13:19.120><c> God</c><00:13:19.440><c> Almighty</c><00:13:19.919><c> and</c><00:13:20.620><c> the</c><00:13:20.820><c> Lamb</c><00:13:21.100><c> are</c><00:13:21.299><c> the</c><00:13:21.480><c> temple</c>

00:13:29.000 --> 00:13:30.500
the<00:13:29.179><c> light</c><00:13:29.379><c> thereof.</c>

00:13:30.879 --> 00:13:35.240
You<00:13:31.159><c> see,</c><00:13:31.259><c> I</c><00:13:31.460><c> think</c><00:13:31.980><c> that</c><00:13:32.580><c> the</c><00:13:32.779><c> whole</c><00:13:33.120><c> city</c><00:13:33.600><c> has</c><00:13:34.039><c> become</c><00:13:34.539><c> a</c><00:13:34.799><c> temple</c><00:13:35.059><c> to</c>

the<00:13:35.360><c> living</c><00:13:35.559><c> God.</c>

00:13:36.960 --> 00:13:42.299
Similarly,<00:13:38.279><c> in</c><00:13:38.480><c> Genesis,</c><00:13:39.539><c> the</c><00:13:39.700><c> Garden</c><00:13:40.100><c> of</c><00:13:40.460><c> Eden</c><00:13:40.879><c> is</c><00:13:41.700><c> a</c><00:13:41.860><c> temple</c>

00:13:43.539 --> 00:13:47.620
Where<00:13:44.279><c> Adam</c><00:13:44.580><c> was</c><00:13:44.779><c> to</c><00:13:45.080><c> meet</c><00:13:45.480><c> and</c><00:13:45.940><c> to</c><00:13:46.120><c> worship</c><00:13:46.320><c> him.</c>

00:13:49.000 --> 00:13:50.940
It's<00:13:49.080><c> a</c><00:13:49.120><c> wonderful</c><00:13:49.460><c> thought,</c><00:13:49.899><c> brothers</c><00:13:49.960><c> and</c><00:13:50.159><c> sisters.</c>

00:13:51.940 --> 00:13:55.179
So<00:13:52.179><c> let's</c><00:13:52.340><c> go</c><00:13:52.600><c> back</c><00:13:52.820><c> to</c><00:13:53.860><c> the</c><00:13:54.000><c> Genesis</c><00:13:54.240><c> record,</c>

00:13:56.179 --> 00:13:59.100
and<00:13:56.299><c> let's</c><00:13:56.559><c> now</c><00:13:56.799><c> attempt</c><00:13:57.059><c> to</c><00:13:57.340><c> visualize</c><00:13:57.940><c> this</c><00:13:58.220><c> garden.</c>

00:13:59.860 --> 00:14:04.740
I<00:14:00.100><c> think</c><00:14:00.220><c> it</c><00:14:00.879><c> will</c><00:14:01.139><c> repay</c><00:14:01.399><c> us</c><00:14:02.179><c> because</c><00:14:03.600><c> of</c><00:14:03.759><c> its</c><00:14:03.899><c> sheer</c><00:14:04.059><c> beauty</c>

00:14:04.740 --> 00:14:07.580
and<00:14:05.580><c> the</c><00:14:05.799><c> wonder</c><00:14:06.100><c> of</c><00:14:06.259><c> it</c><00:14:06.460><c> all.</c>

00:14:08.080 --> 00:14:13.299
Genesis<00:14:08.779><c> chapter</c><00:14:09.320><c> 2</c><00:14:09.580><c> again,</c><00:14:11.179><c> and</c><00:14:11.179><c> verse</c><00:14:11.659><c> 10.</c>

00:14:15.360 --> 00:14:21.820
And<00:14:15.559><c> the</c><00:14:15.679><c> river</c><00:14:16.340><c> went</c><00:14:17.100><c> out</c><00:14:17.960><c> of</c><00:14:18.539><c> Eden</c><00:14:19.000><c> to</c><00:14:20.340><c> water</c><00:14:20.600><c> the</c><00:14:20.799><c> garden.</c>

00:14:22.980 --> 00:14:27.000
Therefore,<00:14:23.600><c> brothers</c><00:14:23.740><c> and</c><00:14:23.960><c> sisters,</c><00:14:24.919><c> this</c><00:14:25.179><c> garden</c><00:14:25.700><c> must</c><00:14:26.200><c> have</c><00:14:26.419><c> been</c><00:14:26.679><c> up</c>

00:14:27.000 --> 00:14:28.179
on<00:14:27.259><c> a</c><00:14:27.379><c> mountain</c><00:14:27.740><c> side,</c>

00:14:28.340 --> 00:14:33.919
on<00:14:28.620><c> the</c><00:14:28.720><c> top</c><00:14:28.840><c> of</c><00:14:29.059><c> a</c><00:14:29.159><c> mountain,</c><00:14:31.039><c> because</c><00:14:31.600><c> rivers</c><00:14:32.440><c> flow</c><00:14:32.879><c> downhill.</c>

00:14:34.139 --> 00:14:38.600
Therefore,<00:14:34.860><c> since</c><00:14:35.360><c> this</c><00:14:35.820><c> river</c><00:14:36.240><c> goes</c><00:14:36.860><c> out</c><00:14:37.580><c> of</c><00:14:37.860><c> Eden</c><00:14:38.120><c> to</c><00:14:38.440><c> water</c>

00:14:38.600 --> 00:14:39.740
the<00:14:38.840><c> garden,</c>

00:14:40.039 --> 00:14:45.460
then<00:14:40.460><c> it</c><00:14:40.940><c> must</c><00:14:41.340><c> have</c><00:14:41.759><c> been,</c><00:14:41.919><c> as</c><00:14:42.080><c> I</c><00:14:42.299><c> say,</c><00:14:43.139><c> pretty</c><00:14:43.379><c> high</c><00:14:43.620><c> up</c><00:14:44.259><c> somewhere.</c>

00:14:46.519 --> 00:14:49.240
And<00:14:46.879><c> what</c><00:14:47.039><c> is</c><00:14:47.259><c> more,</c><00:14:47.700><c> this</c><00:14:47.879><c> is</c><00:14:48.039><c> an</c><00:14:48.159><c> extraordinary</c><00:14:48.740><c> river,</c>

00:14:49.679 --> 00:14:50.820
most<00:14:49.860><c> peculiar.</c>

00:14:50.899 --> 00:14:54.179
It's<00:14:51.120><c> back</c><00:14:51.340><c> to</c><00:14:51.539><c> front,</c><00:14:52.639><c> totally</c><00:14:52.980><c> back</c><00:14:53.259><c> to</c><00:14:53.440><c> front.</c>

00:14:54.259 --> 00:14:55.559
Look<00:14:54.379><c> at</c><00:14:54.480><c> the</c><00:14:54.580><c> next</c><00:14:54.779><c> bit.</c>

00:14:55.700 --> 00:15:02.659
From<00:14:56.159><c> thence</c><00:14:57.259><c> it</c><00:14:57.480><c> was</c><00:14:57.919><c> parted</c><00:14:58.700><c> and</c><00:14:59.259><c> became</c><00:15:00.019><c> into</c><00:15:00.960><c> four</c><00:15:01.580><c> heads.</c>

00:15:03.120 --> 00:15:08.139
Now<00:15:03.500><c> every</c><00:15:03.820><c> river</c><00:15:04.080><c> that</c><00:15:04.279><c> I</c><00:15:04.480><c> know</c><00:15:05.559><c> collects</c><00:15:06.139><c> tributaries</c><00:15:06.899><c> running</c><00:15:07.240><c> into</c><00:15:07.700><c> it,</c>

00:15:08.139 --> 00:15:10.179
forming<00:15:08.460><c> one</c><00:15:08.960><c> main</c><00:15:09.200><c> river.</c>

00:15:10.480 --> 00:15:11.980
This<00:15:10.779><c> one's</c><00:15:11.120><c> the</c><00:15:11.220><c> wrong</c><00:15:11.340><c> way</c><00:15:11.580><c> around.</c>

00:15:12.320 --> 00:15:17.059
It<00:15:12.580><c> starts</c><00:15:12.919><c> off</c><00:15:13.179><c> as</c><00:15:13.639><c> one</c><00:15:14.000><c> river</c><00:15:14.440><c> and</c><00:15:15.019><c> splits</c><00:15:15.399><c> up</c><00:15:15.759><c> into</c><00:15:16.039><c> four.</c>

00:15:17.220 --> 00:15:21.500
It<00:15:17.419><c> was</c><00:15:17.960><c> parted</c><00:15:18.779><c> into</c><00:15:19.419><c> four</c><00:15:20.419><c> heads.</c>

00:15:21.740 --> 00:15:25.779
And<00:15:21.840><c> not</c><00:15:22.039><c> four</c><00:15:22.340><c> little</c><00:15:22.919><c> fiddling</c><00:15:23.600><c> tiny</c><00:15:24.259><c> heads,</c><00:15:24.759><c> either.</c>

00:15:25.799 --> 00:15:27.279
You<00:15:26.059><c> notice</c><00:15:26.320><c> the</c><00:15:26.440><c> name</c><00:15:26.600><c> of</c><00:15:26.779><c> these</c><00:15:26.960><c> rivers.</c>

00:15:27.720 --> 00:15:28.679
There's<00:15:28.139><c> Gaihan.</c>

00:15:29.159 --> 00:15:31.860
There's<00:15:29.659><c> Hiddikel,</c><00:15:30.159><c> which</c><00:15:30.340><c> is</c><00:15:30.559><c> an</c><00:15:31.019><c> enormous</c><00:15:31.480><c> river.</c>

00:15:31.860 --> 00:15:35.080
There's<00:15:32.500><c> Euphrates,</c><00:15:33.759><c> another</c><00:15:34.100><c> enormous</c><00:15:34.639><c> river.</c>

00:15:35.580 --> 00:15:38.279
So<00:15:35.720><c> there</c><00:15:35.779><c> must</c><00:15:36.039><c> have</c><00:15:36.159><c> been</c><00:15:36.299><c> a</c><00:15:36.600><c> colossal</c><00:15:37.399><c> source</c><00:15:37.700><c> of</c><00:15:37.940><c> water</c>

00:15:38.279 --> 00:15:40.440
where<00:15:38.840><c> this</c><00:15:39.159><c> river</c><00:15:39.399><c> began.</c>

00:15:41.039 --> 00:15:42.320
And<00:15:41.279><c> it</c><00:15:41.419><c> reminds</c><00:15:41.720><c> me,</c><00:15:42.059><c> doesn't</c><00:15:42.159><c> it?</c>

00:15:42.379 --> 00:15:46.320
It<00:15:42.500><c> must</c><00:15:42.740><c> remind</c><00:15:43.059><c> you</c><00:15:43.299><c> as</c><00:15:43.500><c> well,</c><00:15:44.539><c> of</c><00:15:44.759><c> the</c><00:15:45.259><c> prophecy</c><00:15:45.480><c> in</c><00:15:45.659><c> Ezekiel,</c>

00:15:46.600 --> 00:15:50.200
where<00:15:46.840><c> the</c><00:15:47.039><c> water</c><00:15:47.399><c> issues</c><00:15:47.820><c> out</c><00:15:48.200><c> of</c><00:15:48.379><c> the</c><00:15:48.539><c> temple,</c><00:15:49.480><c> comes</c><00:15:49.840><c> down</c>

00:15:50.200 --> 00:15:51.419
and<00:15:50.580><c> runs</c><00:15:51.019><c> along,</c>

00:15:51.539 --> 00:15:55.120
and<00:15:51.639><c> in</c><00:15:51.740><c> a</c><00:15:52.000><c> very,</c><00:15:52.399><c> very</c><00:15:52.679><c> short</c><00:15:52.940><c> time</c><00:15:53.259><c> is</c><00:15:53.519><c> so</c><00:15:54.039><c> deep</c><00:15:54.379><c> that</c><00:15:54.679><c> a</c><00:15:54.860><c> man</c>

00:15:55.120 --> 00:15:56.159
can't<00:15:55.559><c> walk</c><00:15:55.820><c> over,</c>

00:15:56.299 --> 00:16:00.179
because<00:15:56.580><c> the</c><00:15:56.940><c> water</c><00:15:57.299><c> flood</c><00:15:57.539><c> is</c><00:15:58.000><c> so</c><00:15:58.340><c> heavy,</c><00:15:58.879><c> the</c><00:15:59.120><c> depth</c><00:15:59.379><c> is</c><00:15:59.639><c> so</c><00:15:59.919><c> great,</c>

00:16:00.179 --> 00:16:02.700
the<00:16:00.679><c> current</c><00:16:00.980><c> is</c><00:16:01.200><c> so</c><00:16:01.480><c> strong.</c>

00:16:02.960 --> 00:16:04.159
Sounds<00:16:03.279><c> very</c><00:16:03.500><c> much</c><00:16:03.639><c> like</c><00:16:03.860><c> that.</c>

00:16:04.399 --> 00:16:08.179
And<00:16:04.600><c> you</c><00:16:04.700><c> remember</c><00:16:05.019><c> that</c><00:16:05.559><c> that</c><00:16:05.899><c> was</c><00:16:06.120><c> a</c><00:16:06.279><c> prophecy</c><00:16:06.600><c> of</c><00:16:06.980><c> water</c><00:16:07.259><c> coming</c><00:16:07.500><c> out</c><00:16:07.820><c> of</c>

00:16:08.179 --> 00:16:10.480
a<00:16:08.440><c> temple</c><00:16:08.879><c> of</c><00:16:09.279><c> the</c><00:16:09.419><c> living</c><00:16:09.620><c> gods.</c>

00:16:10.779 --> 00:16:14.440
So<00:16:10.940><c> we</c><00:16:11.059><c> come</c><00:16:11.200><c> back</c><00:16:11.399><c> to</c><00:16:11.580><c> the</c><00:16:11.700><c> same</c><00:16:11.840><c> idea,</c><00:16:12.799><c> once</c><00:16:13.100><c> again,</c><00:16:14.320><c> by</c>

00:16:14.440 --> 00:16:15.480
another<00:16:14.679><c> route.</c>

00:16:18.220 --> 00:16:21.759
What<00:16:18.480><c> feature</c><00:16:18.980><c> is</c><00:16:19.240><c> there</c><00:16:19.440><c> about</c><00:16:19.679><c> a</c><00:16:19.899><c> garden</c><00:16:20.200><c> that</c><00:16:20.600><c> distinguishes</c><00:16:21.059><c> it</c><00:16:21.320><c> from</c><00:16:21.539><c> a</c>

00:16:21.759 --> 00:16:23.659
field,<00:16:22.500><c> brothers</c><00:16:22.679><c> and</c><00:16:22.799><c> sisters?</c>

00:16:24.120 --> 00:16:28.240
In<00:16:24.539><c> England,</c><00:16:25.919><c> all</c><00:16:26.179><c> the</c><00:16:26.460><c> gardens,</c><00:16:27.159><c> every</c><00:16:27.419><c> single</c><00:16:27.720><c> garden</c><00:16:27.960><c> I've</c>

00:16:28.240 --> 00:16:29.200
ever<00:16:28.440><c> seen</c><00:16:28.720><c> there,</c>

00:16:29.200 --> 00:16:36.720
if<00:16:29.860><c> it's</c><00:16:31.340><c> in</c><00:16:31.480><c> reasonable</c><00:16:31.759><c> condition,</c><00:16:33.240><c> has</c><00:16:33.379><c> got</c><00:16:33.759><c> a</c><00:16:34.659><c> wall,</c><00:16:35.820><c> a</c><00:16:36.059><c> barrier,</c><00:16:36.580><c> a</c>

00:16:39.860 --> 00:16:43.460
Therefore,<00:16:40.799><c> the</c><00:16:40.940><c> Garden</c><00:16:41.120><c> of</c><00:16:41.279><c> Eden</c><00:16:41.419><c> must</c><00:16:41.659><c> have</c><00:16:41.820><c> had</c><00:16:41.980><c> one</c><00:16:42.120><c> as</c><00:16:42.340><c> well.</c>

00:16:43.620 --> 00:16:47.139
And<00:16:43.860><c> we</c><00:16:43.980><c> can</c><00:16:44.159><c> prove</c><00:16:44.399><c> this</c><00:16:44.659><c> to</c><00:16:44.860><c> you</c><00:16:45.480><c> from</c><00:16:45.899><c> chapter</c><00:16:46.240><c> 3.</c>

00:16:47.379 --> 00:16:48.820
Can<00:16:47.480><c> you</c><00:16:47.539><c> just</c><00:16:47.679><c> turn</c><00:16:47.779><c> over</c><00:16:47.980><c> there</c><00:16:48.139><c> with</c><00:16:48.279><c> me?</c>

00:16:48.940 --> 00:16:51.940

00:16:55.600 --> 00:17:00.000
So,<00:16:56.299><c> it</c><00:16:56.460><c> says,</c><00:16:57.600><c> he</c><00:16:57.720><c> drove</c><00:16:58.220><c> out</c><00:16:58.740><c> the</c><00:16:58.960><c> man,</c>

00:17:00.279 --> 00:17:04.880
and<00:17:00.799><c> he</c><00:17:01.039><c> placed</c><00:17:01.299><c> at</c><00:17:01.460><c> the</c><00:17:01.779><c> east</c><00:17:02.139><c> of</c><00:17:02.340><c> the</c><00:17:02.480><c> Garden</c><00:17:02.740><c> of</c><00:17:03.000><c> Eden</c><00:17:03.259><c> the</c><00:17:03.799><c> kerabim,</c>

00:17:11.599 --> 00:17:13.839
Well,<00:17:11.839><c> it</c><00:17:11.960><c> wouldn't</c><00:17:12.140><c> have</c><00:17:12.299><c> been</c><00:17:12.400><c> very</c><00:17:12.880><c> bright,</c><00:17:13.220><c> would</c><00:17:13.359><c> it?</c>

00:17:14.119 --> 00:17:17.160
To<00:17:14.359><c> put</c><00:17:14.559><c> the</c><00:17:14.819><c> kerabim</c><00:17:15.319><c> on</c><00:17:15.720><c> the</c><00:17:15.980><c> east</c><00:17:16.400><c> side,</c>

00:17:23.900 --> 00:17:25.720

the<00:20:37.200><c> way</c><00:20:37.359><c> around.</c>

00:20:41.559 --> 00:20:44.720
It<00:20:41.700><c> takes</c><00:20:41.920><c> the</c><00:20:42.099><c> breath</c><00:20:42.240><c> away</c><00:20:42.500><c> to</c><00:20:42.740><c> try</c><00:20:42.880><c> and</c><00:20:43.059><c> imagine</c><00:20:43.279><c> that.</c>

00:20:46.259 --> 00:20:48.200
It's<00:20:46.779><c> just</c><00:20:47.000><c> my</c><00:20:47.220><c> imagination</c><00:20:47.619><c> again.</c>

00:20:48.420 --> 00:20:53.740
But<00:20:48.940><c> I</c><00:20:49.200><c> rather</c><00:20:49.519><c> believe</c><00:20:50.099><c> that</c><00:20:50.720><c> the</c><00:20:51.059><c> center</c><00:20:51.400><c> of</c><00:20:51.579><c> the</c><00:20:51.759><c> garden</c><00:20:52.019><c> was</c><00:20:52.440><c> perhaps</c><00:20:53.180><c> led</c><00:20:53.539><c> up</c>

00:21:02.940 --> 00:21:06.960
And<00:21:03.700><c> perhaps</c><00:21:04.099><c> from</c><00:21:04.380><c> between</c><00:21:04.740><c> the</c><00:21:05.000><c> two</c><00:21:05.180><c> trees</c><00:21:05.940><c> come</c><00:21:06.460><c> running</c>

00:21:18.480 --> 00:21:20.640
It<00:21:18.500><c> must</c><00:21:18.619><c> have</c><00:21:18.720><c> been</c><00:21:18.839><c> a</c><00:21:18.980><c> wonderful</c><00:21:19.279><c> place,</c><00:21:19.660><c> brothers</c><00:21:19.759><c> and</c><00:21:19.940><c> sisters.</c>

00:21:21.140 --> 00:21:24.619
There<00:21:21.339><c> can't</c><00:21:21.700><c> have</c><00:21:21.859><c> been</c><00:21:22.000><c> any</c><00:21:22.460><c> trees</c><00:21:22.880><c> like</c><00:21:23.259><c> that</c><00:21:23.559><c> before</c><00:21:24.000><c> or</c><00:21:24.279><c> since,</c>

00:21:34.420 --> 00:21:37.200
Now<00:21:34.539><c> let's</c><00:21:34.660><c> have</c><00:21:34.839><c> a</c><00:21:34.900><c> look</c><00:21:35.400><c> at</c><00:21:36.039><c> Adam</c><00:21:36.279><c> himself,</c>

00:21:43.539 --> 00:21:47.839
God<00:21:43.759><c> makes</c><00:21:44.160><c> Adam,</c><00:21:44.799><c> verse</c><00:21:44.799><c> 7,</c><00:21:45.839><c> of</c><00:21:45.980><c> the</c><00:21:46.140><c> dust</c><00:21:46.359><c> of</c><00:21:46.519><c> the</c><00:21:46.720><c> ground,</c>

00:21:47.859 --> 00:21:50.299
breathe<00:21:48.000><c> into</c><00:21:48.259><c> his</c><00:21:48.480><c> nostrils</c><00:21:48.880><c> the</c><00:21:49.039><c> breath</c><00:21:49.220><c> of</c><00:21:49.460><c> life,</c>

And<00:21:54.819><c> he</c><00:21:54.920><c> gets</c><00:21:55.140><c> up.</c>

00:21:56.059 --> 00:21:58.779
No,<00:21:56.619><c> he</c><00:21:56.779><c> doesn't.</c><00:21:57.180><c> Let's</c><00:21:57.420><c> imagine</c><00:21:57.680><c> this</c><00:21:57.859><c> again.</c>

00:21:58.960 --> 00:22:03.240
The<00:21:59.119><c> Lord</c><00:21:59.359><c> God</c><00:21:59.640><c> forms</c><00:22:00.079><c> him,</c><00:22:00.779><c> makes</c><00:22:00.960><c> a</c><00:22:01.240><c> model</c><00:22:01.440><c> of</c><00:22:01.640><c> him,</c><00:22:02.160><c> of</c><00:22:02.420><c> clay.</c>

00:22:03.859 --> 00:22:05.319
There<00:22:04.140><c> he</c><00:22:04.279><c> is.</c>

00:22:05.599 --> 00:22:08.779
And<00:22:05.859><c> then</c><00:22:06.000><c> God</c><00:22:06.400><c> leans</c><00:22:07.059><c> over</c><00:22:07.420><c> him,</c>

00:22:09.559 --> 00:22:11.859

it<00:22:12.059><c> says,</c>

00:22:12.980 --> 00:22:14.900

Grass.

and<00:30:49.480><c> shall</c><00:30:49.680><c> cleave</c><00:30:50.000><c> unto</c><00:30:50.200><c> his</c><00:30:50.480><c> wife,</c>

00:30:50.839 --> 00:30:51.960
and<00:30:50.980><c> they</c><00:30:51.099><c> shall</c><00:30:51.279><c> be</c><00:30:51.519><c> one</c><00:30:51.759><c> flesh.</c>

00:30:52.059 --> 00:30:55.339
It<00:30:52.319><c> reads</c><00:30:52.660><c> almost</c><00:30:53.180><c> as</c><00:30:53.319><c> if</c><00:30:53.480><c> it's</c><00:30:53.660><c> Adam</c><00:30:53.880><c> that's</c><00:30:54.099><c> saying</c><00:30:54.259><c> that.</c>

00:30:55.880 --> 00:30:57.480
You<00:30:56.000><c> see,</c><00:30:56.059><c> if</c><00:30:56.240><c> Adam</c><00:30:56.400><c> is</c><00:30:56.579><c> God's</c><00:30:56.900><c> high</c><00:30:57.059><c> priest,</c>

00:30:57.880 --> 00:30:59.619
then<00:30:58.019><c> it</c><00:30:58.140><c> is</c><00:30:58.240><c> really</c><00:30:58.460><c> God</c><00:30:58.680><c> speaking</c><00:30:59.039><c> through</c><00:30:59.299><c> him</c>

00:30:59.619 --> 00:31:01.980
on<00:31:00.359><c> this</c><00:31:00.519><c> particular</c><00:31:00.940><c> occasion.</c>

00:31:02.500 --> 00:31:04.039
And<00:31:02.660><c> that</c><00:31:02.819><c> makes</c><00:31:03.000><c> sense.</c>

00:31:04.579 --> 00:31:05.700
But<00:31:04.640><c> the</c><00:31:04.779><c> function</c><00:31:05.019><c> of</c><00:31:05.220><c> a</c><00:31:05.279><c> high</c><00:31:05.460><c> priest</c>

00:31:08.200 --> 00:31:10.599
The<00:31:08.519><c> priest's</c><00:31:09.079><c> lips</c><00:31:09.339><c> should</c><00:31:09.779><c> keep</c><00:31:10.079><c> knowledge.</c>

00:31:10.980 --> 00:31:12.640
And<00:31:11.160><c> we</c><00:31:11.359><c> notice</c><00:31:11.720><c> in</c><00:31:11.940><c> all</c><00:31:12.140><c> our</c><00:31:12.319><c> reading</c>

00:31:12.640 --> 00:31:15.680

00:31:20.700 --> 00:31:22.160
Nowhere<00:31:20.960><c> does</c><00:31:21.079><c> God</c><00:31:21.240><c> tell</c><00:31:21.480><c> Eve</c><00:31:21.740><c> that.</c>

00:31:22.519 --> 00:31:24.759
He<00:31:22.720><c> tells</c><00:31:23.079><c> Adam,</c><00:31:23.880><c> verse</c><00:31:24.140><c> 16,</c>

00:31:24.759 --> 00:31:28.559
And<00:31:25.160><c> the</c><00:31:25.319><c> Lord</c><00:31:25.880><c> God</c><00:31:26.480><c> commanded</c><00:31:27.220><c> the</c><00:31:27.539><c> man,</c>

00:31:32.920 --> 00:31:35.160

00:31:35.559 --> 00:31:37.039
thou<00:31:35.700><c> shalt</c><00:31:36.079><c> not</c><00:31:36.380><c> eat</c><00:31:36.579><c> of</c><00:31:36.700><c> it.</c>

00:31:37.339 --> 00:31:39.420
For<00:31:37.519><c> in</c><00:31:37.700><c> the</c><00:31:37.900><c> day</c><00:31:38.079><c> that</c><00:31:38.240><c> thou</c><00:31:38.440><c> eatest</c><00:31:38.880><c> thereof,</c>

00:31:39.680 --> 00:31:41.759
thou<00:31:39.900><c> shalt</c><00:31:40.299><c> surely</c><00:31:40.779><c> die.</c>

00:31:42.539 --> 00:31:43.980
Didn't<00:31:42.980><c> tell</c><00:31:43.200><c> Eve?</c>

00:31:44.500 --> 00:31:46.839
Therefore<00:31:44.960><c> we</c><00:31:45.180><c> have</c><00:31:45.420><c> here</c><00:31:45.799><c> a</c><00:31:46.440><c> picture</c>

00:31:46.839 --> 00:31:49.940
that<00:31:47.299><c> God</c><00:31:47.660><c> is</c><00:31:48.079><c> conveying</c><00:31:48.759><c> knowledge</c><00:31:49.119><c> to</c><00:31:49.319><c> his</c><00:31:49.559><c> priest</c>

00:31:49.940 --> 00:31:52.799

00:31:53.299 --> 00:31:56.759
And<00:31:53.880><c> this</c><00:31:54.140><c> is</c><00:31:54.319><c> where</c><00:31:54.980><c> the</c><00:31:55.440><c> tragedy</c><00:31:55.720><c> begins.</c>

00:31:57.079 --> 00:31:59.119
Because<00:31:57.359><c> Adam</c><00:31:57.640><c> didn't</c><00:31:58.119><c> do</c><00:31:58.420><c> his</c><00:31:58.740><c> job</c>

00:31:59.119 --> 00:32:01.119
as<00:31:59.920><c> he</c><00:32:00.119><c> should.</c>

00:32:02.380 --> 00:32:04.900
Notice<00:32:02.700><c> now</c><00:32:03.059><c> the</c><00:32:03.460><c> third</c><00:32:03.700><c> chapter,</c>

00:32:05.119 --> 00:32:08.720
verse<00:32:05.619><c> 1</c><00:32:06.500><c> and</c><00:32:07.299><c> 2.</c>

00:32:08.880 --> 00:32:10.400
Temptation<00:32:09.480><c> comes,</c>

00:32:10.599 --> 00:32:11.940
trouble<00:32:10.920><c> comes,</c>

00:32:12.200 --> 00:32:13.420
trials<00:32:12.480><c> come.</c>

00:32:14.539 --> 00:32:16.839
Now<00:32:14.980><c> the</c><00:32:15.180><c> serpent</c><00:32:15.619><c> was</c><00:32:15.799><c> more</c><00:32:16.339><c> subtle</c>

00:32:16.839 --> 00:32:18.740
than<00:32:17.200><c> any</c><00:32:17.680><c> beast</c><00:32:18.079><c> of</c><00:32:18.259><c> the</c><00:32:18.460><c> field</c>

00:32:18.740 --> 00:32:20.779
which<00:32:19.059><c> the</c><00:32:19.279><c> Lord</c><00:32:19.480><c> God</c><00:32:19.680><c> had</c><00:32:19.920><c> made.</c>

00:32:20.980 --> 00:32:23.779
And<00:32:21.619><c> he</c><00:32:21.839><c> said</c><00:32:22.099><c> unto</c><00:32:22.339><c> the</c><00:32:22.559><c> woman,</c>

00:32:24.480 --> 00:32:28.220
Yea,<00:32:26.339><c> hath</c><00:32:26.559><c> God</c><00:32:27.000><c> said,</c>

00:32:28.440 --> 00:32:31.859
Ye<00:32:28.579><c> shall</c><00:32:28.839><c> not</c><00:32:29.180><c> eat</c><00:32:29.480><c> of</c><00:32:29.740><c> every</c><00:32:30.200><c> tree</c><00:32:30.440><c> of</c><00:32:30.599><c> the</c><00:32:30.779><c> garden.</c>

00:32:34.019 --> 00:32:37.200
Adam<00:32:34.519><c> did</c><00:32:35.059><c> not</c><00:32:35.420><c> do</c><00:32:35.640><c> his</c><00:32:35.980><c> job</c><00:32:36.319><c> as</c><00:32:36.599><c> he</c><00:32:36.960><c> should,</c>

00:32:37.440 --> 00:32:38.500
brothers<00:32:37.599><c> and</c><00:32:37.779><c> sisters.</c>

00:32:39.000 --> 00:32:41.779
You<00:32:39.160><c> remember</c><00:32:39.460><c> one</c><00:32:39.740><c> of</c><00:32:39.859><c> his</c><00:32:40.019><c> functions</c><00:32:40.539><c> was</c>

00:32:42.059 --> 00:32:44.839
to<00:32:42.700><c> keep</c><00:32:43.319><c> the</c><00:32:44.000><c> garden,</c>

00:32:45.500 --> 00:32:47.920
to<00:32:45.819><c> watch</c><00:32:46.119><c> over</c><00:32:46.420><c> it</c><00:32:46.740><c> as</c><00:32:46.960><c> a</c><00:32:47.099><c> watchman.</c>

00:32:48.579 --> 00:32:51.500
He,<00:32:49.519><c> Adam</c><00:32:49.720><c> had</c><00:32:50.220><c> named</c><00:32:50.680><c> that</c><00:32:51.019><c> serpent</c>

00:32:51.500 --> 00:32:54.039
and<00:32:52.099><c> the</c><00:32:52.299><c> word</c><00:32:52.519><c> for</c><00:32:52.880><c> serpent</c><00:32:53.220><c> seems</c><00:32:53.579><c> in</c><00:32:53.759><c> the</c><00:32:53.920><c> Hebrew</c>

00:32:54.039 --> 00:32:55.339
to<00:32:54.200><c> be</c><00:32:54.319><c> very</c><00:32:54.599><c> closely</c><00:32:54.940><c> related</c>

00:32:55.339 --> 00:32:56.980
for<00:32:55.660><c> that</c><00:32:55.920><c> word</c><00:32:56.059><c> for</c><00:32:56.299><c> a</c><00:32:56.519><c> deceiver.</c>

00:32:57.240 --> 00:32:59.400
Therefore<00:32:57.539><c> somehow,</c><00:32:58.359><c> I</c><00:32:58.599><c> don't</c><00:32:58.819><c> know</c><00:32:59.019><c> how,</c>

00:32:59.539 --> 00:33:01.619
Adam<00:33:00.019><c> knew</c><00:33:00.460><c> or</c><00:33:00.720><c> had</c><00:33:00.940><c> the</c><00:33:01.160><c> idea</c>

00:33:01.619 --> 00:33:04.599
that<00:33:01.940><c> this</c><00:33:02.240><c> serpent</c><00:33:02.579><c> was</c><00:33:02.900><c> deceptive.</c>

00:33:04.759 --> 00:33:07.619
Therefore<00:33:05.279><c> he</c><00:33:05.440><c> should</c><00:33:05.640><c> have</c><00:33:05.779><c> kept</c><00:33:06.000><c> it</c><00:33:06.279><c> out</c><00:33:06.500><c> of</c><00:33:06.640><c> the</c><00:33:06.779><c> garden.</c>

00:33:08.339 --> 00:33:10.140
Therefore<00:33:08.859><c> he</c><00:33:09.059><c> should</c><00:33:09.240><c> have</c><00:33:09.420><c> got</c><00:33:09.539><c> a</c><00:33:09.859><c> stick</c>

00:33:10.140 --> 00:33:12.259
and<00:33:10.839><c> at</c><00:33:11.000><c> the</c><00:33:11.220><c> first</c><00:33:11.480><c> appearance</c><00:33:11.880><c> of</c><00:33:12.099><c> it</c>

00:33:12.259 --> 00:33:14.000
he<00:33:12.500><c> should</c><00:33:12.720><c> have</c><00:33:12.920><c> beaten</c><00:33:13.200><c> it</c><00:33:13.460><c> black</c><00:33:13.660><c> and</c><00:33:13.900><c> blue</c>

00:33:14.000 --> 00:33:15.940
to<00:33:14.180><c> get</c><00:33:14.299><c> it</c><00:33:14.579><c> out</c><00:33:14.720><c> of</c><00:33:14.900><c> the</c><00:33:15.039><c> garden.</c>

00:33:16.539 --> 00:33:18.119
He<00:33:17.059><c> should</c><00:33:17.180><c> have</c><00:33:17.380><c> done.</c>

00:33:18.380 --> 00:33:19.359
But<00:33:18.539><c> he</c><00:33:18.660><c> didn't.</c>

00:33:19.660 --> 00:33:21.779
And<00:33:19.759><c> what's</c><00:33:20.119><c> more,</c><00:33:20.500><c> there</c><00:33:20.619><c> are</c><00:33:20.900><c> conversations</c><00:33:21.339><c> here</c>

00:33:21.779 --> 00:33:22.400
with<00:33:22.019><c> the</c><00:33:22.200><c> serpent.</c>

00:33:22.579 --> 00:33:23.500
Do<00:33:22.720><c> you</c><00:33:22.759><c> see</c><00:33:22.799><c> that</c><00:33:23.039><c> first</c><00:33:23.279><c> word?</c>

00:33:23.740 --> 00:33:25.359
And<00:33:23.740><c> he</c><00:33:23.880><c> said</c><00:33:24.000><c> unto</c><00:33:24.240><c> the</c><00:33:24.420><c> woman,</c>

00:33:25.819 --> 00:33:27.559
Yea,<00:33:27.119><c> hath</c><00:33:27.279><c> God,</c>

00:33:27.559 --> 00:33:29.779
it's<00:33:28.160><c> a</c><00:33:28.420><c> continuation</c><00:33:28.900><c> of</c><00:33:29.099><c> a</c><00:33:29.339><c> conversation</c>

00:33:29.779 --> 00:33:31.220
that's<00:33:30.259><c> taken</c><00:33:30.420><c> place</c><00:33:30.740><c> previously.</c>

00:33:31.619 --> 00:33:33.119
Yea,<00:33:32.359><c> hath</c><00:33:32.539><c> God</c><00:33:32.819><c> said,</c>

00:33:33.299 --> 00:33:35.720
there's<00:33:33.500><c> been</c><00:33:33.680><c> some</c><00:33:33.960><c> talk</c><00:33:34.180><c> between</c><00:33:34.519><c> them</c><00:33:34.720><c> before.</c>

00:33:36.359 --> 00:33:39.240
Why<00:33:36.759><c> didn't</c><00:33:37.140><c> Adam</c><00:33:37.400><c> chase</c><00:33:37.779><c> that</c><00:33:38.079><c> thing</c><00:33:38.319><c> out?</c>

00:33:40.279 --> 00:33:41.900
I<00:33:40.720><c> don't</c><00:33:40.940><c> know.</c>

00:33:42.240 --> 00:33:44.140
How<00:33:42.599><c> did</c><00:33:42.779><c> it</c><00:33:42.940><c> get</c><00:33:43.119><c> there?</c>

00:33:44.619 --> 00:33:46.000
It<00:33:45.200><c> flew.</c>

00:33:46.619 --> 00:33:48.779
It<00:33:47.019><c> flew</c><00:33:47.299><c> into</c><00:33:47.720><c> the</c><00:33:47.920><c> garden.</c>

00:33:49.259 --> 00:33:50.660
Because<00:33:49.380><c> when</c><00:33:49.619><c> God</c><00:33:49.859><c> curses,</c><00:33:50.440><c> it</c><00:33:50.440><c> says,</c>

00:33:51.039 --> 00:33:52.640
on<00:33:51.039><c> your</c><00:33:51.460><c> belly</c><00:33:51.759><c> shalt</c><00:33:52.099><c> thou</c><00:33:52.319><c> go.</c>

00:33:53.079 --> 00:33:54.319
Therefore<00:33:53.359><c> it</c><00:33:53.559><c> either</c><00:33:53.940><c> walked</c>

00:33:54.319 --> 00:33:55.920
or<00:33:54.920><c> it</c><00:33:55.180><c> flew.</c>

00:33:56.079 --> 00:33:57.480
And<00:33:56.220><c> I</c><00:33:56.359><c> suggest</c><00:33:56.619><c> to</c><00:33:56.759><c> you</c><00:33:56.839><c> that</c><00:33:57.000><c> it</c><00:33:57.259><c> flew.</c>

00:33:57.680 --> 00:33:59.759
And<00:33:57.880><c> this</c><00:33:58.039><c> is</c><00:33:58.259><c> the</c><00:33:58.400><c> origin</c><00:33:58.640><c> of</c><00:33:58.839><c> the</c><00:33:59.019><c> legends</c><00:33:59.279><c> concerning</c>

00:34:02.940 --> 00:34:04.160
It<00:34:03.180><c> flew</c><00:34:03.359><c> into</c><00:34:03.559><c> the</c><00:34:04.160><c> garden,</c>

00:34:04.519 --> 00:34:07.500
landed<00:34:04.839><c> on</c><00:34:05.079><c> this</c><00:34:05.940><c> wonderful</c><00:34:06.559><c> tree</c>

00:34:07.640 --> 00:34:11.019

00:34:11.880 --> 00:34:12.760
Now<00:34:12.360><c> brothers</c><00:34:12.539><c> and</c><00:34:12.659><c> sisters,</c>

00:34:14.579 --> 00:34:15.739
for<00:34:14.780><c> a</c><00:34:14.920><c> moment.</c>

00:34:17.059 --> 00:34:18.739
You've<00:34:17.199><c> just</c><00:34:17.539><c> flown</c><00:34:17.840><c> into</c><00:34:18.059><c> the</c><00:34:18.219><c> garden</c><00:34:18.480><c> of</c><00:34:18.639><c> Eden.</c>

00:34:18.840 --> 00:34:20.320
You've<00:34:19.019><c> just</c><00:34:19.460><c> landed</c><00:34:19.699><c> on</c><00:34:19.940><c> this</c><00:34:20.179><c> tree.</c>

00:34:20.539 --> 00:34:23.559
And<00:34:20.840><c> there</c><00:34:21.000><c> are</c><00:34:21.159><c> some</c><00:34:21.440><c> wonderful</c><00:34:21.880><c> looking</c><00:34:22.260><c> fruit</c><00:34:22.539><c> there.</c>

00:34:24.940 --> 00:34:26.880
What<00:34:25.119><c> would</c><00:34:25.280><c> you</c><00:34:25.380><c> be</c><00:34:25.619><c> tempted</c><00:34:25.900><c> to</c><00:34:26.179><c> do?</c>

00:34:27.039 --> 00:34:28.820
What<00:34:27.199><c> would</c><00:34:27.340><c> be</c><00:34:27.539><c> your</c><00:34:27.800><c> inclination?</c>

00:34:31.659 --> 00:34:33.360
I'd<00:34:32.139><c> be</c><00:34:32.300><c> tempted</c><00:34:32.440><c> to</c><00:34:32.619><c> have</c><00:34:32.800><c> a</c><00:34:32.900><c> taste,</c>

Wonderful<00:34:43.679><c> things.</c>

00:34:46.340 --> 00:34:48.059
I'd<00:34:46.699><c> be</c><00:34:46.800><c> tempted</c><00:34:46.980><c> to</c><00:34:47.159><c> eat</c><00:34:47.280><c> it.</c>

00:34:48.920 --> 00:34:50.420
And<00:34:49.139><c> I</c><00:34:49.340><c> feel</c><00:34:49.539><c> sure</c><00:34:49.840><c> in</c><00:34:50.019><c> my</c><00:34:50.139><c> own</c><00:34:50.320><c> mind</c>

00:35:06.280 --> 00:35:09.679
Imagine<00:35:06.880><c> the</c><00:35:07.179><c> force</c><00:35:07.400><c> of</c><00:35:07.619><c> this,</c><00:35:08.199><c> brothers</c><00:35:08.320><c> and</c><00:35:08.500><c> sisters.</c>

Did<00:39:18.780><c> he</c><00:39:19.000><c> stand</c><00:39:19.239><c> there</c><00:39:19.519><c> saying,</c><00:39:20.159><c> Eve,</c><00:39:20.340><c> don't</c><00:39:20.639><c> touch</c><00:39:20.900><c> it.</c>

00:39:21.360 --> 00:39:22.679
Eve,<00:39:21.880><c> don't</c><00:39:22.219><c> eat</c><00:39:22.460><c> it.</c>

00:39:22.780 --> 00:39:25.420
Eve,<00:39:24.119><c> no</c><00:39:24.360><c> way.</c>

00:39:30.599 --> 00:39:32.840
And<00:39:31.179><c> he</c><00:39:31.340><c> did</c><00:39:31.500><c> eat.</c>

00:39:34.239 --> 00:39:36.920
Willingly<00:39:34.820><c> and</c><00:39:35.400><c> with</c><00:39:35.639><c> malice,</c><00:39:36.340><c> a</c><00:39:36.480><c> forethought.</c>

00:39:36.920 --> 00:39:42.980
He<00:39:38.280><c> chose</c><00:39:39.179><c> voluntarily,</c><00:39:41.019><c> willingly,</c><00:39:41.780><c> with</c><00:39:41.880><c> his</c><00:39:42.139><c> eyes</c><00:39:42.619><c> wide</c>

00:39:42.980 --> 00:39:45.340
open,<00:39:43.840><c> knowingly,</c>

00:39:45.420 --> 00:39:50.460
to<00:39:45.960><c> do</c><00:39:46.639><c> what</c><00:39:47.059><c> God</c><00:39:47.480><c> had</c><00:39:47.960><c> said</c><00:39:48.239><c> he</c><00:39:48.559><c> should</c><00:39:48.960><c> not</c><00:39:49.619><c> do.</c>

00:39:50.599 --> 00:39:52.420
He<00:39:51.179><c> chose</c><00:39:51.639><c> to</c><00:39:51.900><c> do</c><00:39:52.079><c> wrong.</c>

00:39:52.739 --> 00:39:55.590
And<00:39:53.019><c> therefore,</c><00:39:53.440><c> although</c><00:39:53.980><c> Eve</c><00:39:54.280><c> was</c><00:39:54.699><c> deceived,</c>

00:39:55.880 --> 00:40:00.260
Adam<00:39:56.119><c> went</c><00:39:56.500><c> into</c><00:39:56.800><c> this</c><00:39:57.059><c> with</c><00:39:57.380><c> his</c><00:39:57.800><c> eyes,</c><00:39:58.260><c> his</c><00:39:58.719><c> mind,</c><00:39:59.239><c> and</c><00:39:59.480><c> everything</c><00:39:59.880><c> else</c>

00:40:00.260 --> 00:40:01.579
wide<00:40:01.000><c> open.</c>

00:40:01.820 --> 00:40:02.210
Why?

00:40:02.210 --> 00:40:09.190
Because<00:40:03.010><c> he</c><00:40:03.530><c> wanted</c><00:40:03.929><c> to</c><00:40:04.230><c> be,</c><00:40:04.349><c> as</c><00:40:04.510><c> it</c><00:40:04.730><c> says,</c><00:40:05.809><c> as</c><00:40:06.110><c> God's,</c><00:40:07.349><c> knowing,</c><00:40:08.289><c> good,</c>

00:40:09.329 --> 00:40:11.250
and<00:40:09.869><c> good.</c>

00:40:11.530 --> 00:40:16.269
What<00:40:12.110><c> a</c><00:40:12.349><c> remarkable</c><00:40:12.969><c> thing</c><00:40:13.269><c> that</c><00:40:13.469><c> a</c><00:40:13.690><c> man</c><00:40:13.929><c> should</c><00:40:14.289><c> choose</c><00:40:14.750><c> that</c>

00:40:16.489 --> 00:40:20.889
instead<00:40:17.210><c> of</c><00:40:17.409><c> all</c><00:40:17.570><c> those</c><00:40:17.889><c> privileges</c><00:40:18.329><c> that</c><00:40:18.670><c> God</c><00:40:18.809><c> had</c><00:40:19.030><c> given</c><00:40:19.170><c> to</c><00:40:19.369><c> him.</c>

00:40:21.269 --> 00:40:26.650
For<00:40:21.349><c> instance,</c><00:40:21.889><c> it</c><00:40:22.289><c> infuriates</c><00:40:23.309><c> me</c><00:40:24.010><c> that</c><00:40:25.090><c> this</c><00:40:25.510><c> man</c><00:40:25.769><c> should</c><00:40:26.210><c> do</c><00:40:26.489><c> a</c>

00:40:26.650 --> 00:40:28.349
thing<00:40:26.730><c> like</c><00:40:26.969><c> this.</c>

00:40:28.449 --> 00:40:29.969
Make<00:40:28.710><c> no</c><00:40:28.909><c> mistake</c><00:40:29.269><c> about</c><00:40:29.550><c> it.</c>

00:40:29.969 --> 00:40:33.369
This<00:40:30.469><c> is</c><00:40:31.070><c> not</c><00:40:31.429><c> merely</c><00:40:32.110><c> eating</c><00:40:32.650><c> of</c><00:40:32.969><c> a</c><00:40:33.130><c> fruit.</c>

00:40:33.829 --> 00:40:36.369
It<00:40:33.989><c> is</c><00:40:34.230><c> a</c><00:40:34.489><c> lifting</c><00:40:34.809><c> up</c><00:40:35.090><c> of</c><00:40:35.269><c> the</c><00:40:35.469><c> hand</c><00:40:35.670><c> against</c><00:40:36.010><c> God.</c>

00:40:36.829 --> 00:40:39.610
It<00:40:36.969><c> is</c><00:40:37.210><c> a</c><00:40:37.429><c> rebellion</c><00:40:37.949><c> against</c><00:40:38.429><c> everything</c><00:40:38.909><c> that</c><00:40:39.150><c> God</c><00:40:39.329><c> had</c>

00:40:39.610 --> 00:40:40.050
told<00:40:39.829><c> him.</c>

00:40:40.449 --> 00:40:45.289
It<00:40:40.650><c> is</c><00:40:41.389><c> willful,</c><00:40:42.429><c> perverse,</c><00:40:43.590><c> rebellious</c><00:40:44.369><c> action.</c>

00:40:45.769 --> 00:40:47.670
You<00:40:45.969><c> know</c><00:40:46.210><c> that</c><00:40:46.369><c> there's</c><00:40:46.590><c> a</c><00:40:46.730><c> law</c><00:40:46.809><c> in</c><00:40:47.070><c> physics,</c><00:40:47.449><c> don't</c><00:40:47.530><c> you,</c>

00:40:47.670 --> 00:40:48.170
that<00:40:47.909><c> says</c>

00:40:48.170 --> 00:40:51.369
every<00:40:48.869><c> action</c><00:40:49.309><c> has</c><00:40:49.530><c> an</c><00:40:49.869><c> equal</c><00:40:50.090><c> and</c><00:40:50.409><c> an</c><00:40:50.670><c> opposite</c><00:40:50.929><c> reaction.</c>

00:40:51.710 --> 00:40:53.610

00:40:54.070 --> 00:40:56.409
Therefore,<00:40:54.769><c> from</c><00:40:55.050><c> that</c><00:40:55.550><c> one</c><00:40:56.050><c> act,</c>

00:41:10.949 --> 00:41:16.429
It<00:41:11.150><c> is</c><00:41:11.469><c> a</c><00:41:11.710><c> sin</c><00:41:11.909><c> of</c><00:41:12.170><c> the</c><00:41:12.510><c> highest,</c><00:41:13.230><c> most</c><00:41:13.630><c> perverse,</c><00:41:14.329><c> and</c><00:41:14.789><c> evil</c><00:41:15.150><c> character.</c>

00:41:18.190 --> 00:41:21.349
Brothers<00:41:18.369><c> and</c><00:41:18.530><c> sisters,</c><00:41:19.250><c> we</c><00:41:19.530><c> don't</c><00:41:19.909><c> do</c><00:41:20.210><c> well</c><00:41:20.590><c> to</c><00:41:20.869><c> say</c><00:41:21.010><c> that</c><00:41:21.190><c> it</c>

00:41:21.349 --> 00:41:23.250
was<00:41:21.690><c> Eve's</c><00:41:22.389><c> fault.</c>

00:41:23.610 --> 00:41:28.849
The<00:41:24.010><c> New</c><00:41:24.329><c> Testament</c><00:41:24.769><c> makes</c><00:41:25.329><c> it</c><00:41:25.590><c> abundantly</c><00:41:26.489><c> plain</c><00:41:26.909><c> that</c><00:41:27.309><c> it</c><00:41:27.489><c> wasn't.</c>

00:41:28.969 --> 00:41:31.190
