00:30:28.400 --> 00:30:30.160
First,<00:30:29.680><c> in</c><00:30:29.819><c> answer</c>

00:30:38.180 --> 00:30:39.380
Therefore,

00:30:40.759 --> 00:30:41.680
their<00:30:40.980><c> inhabitants</c>

00:30:41.680 --> 00:30:43.359

00:31:04.160 --> 00:31:06.000
me,<00:31:05.519><c> says</c><00:31:05.660><c> God</c>

to<00:31:06.140><c> the</c><00:31:06.299><c> Assyrian,</c><00:31:07.019><c> because</c><00:31:07.319><c> thy</c><00:31:07.680><c> rage</c>

00:31:08.299 --> 00:31:09.960

00:31:12.720 --> 00:31:14.059
Therefore,<00:31:13.140><c> I</c><00:31:13.339><c> will</c><00:31:13.519><c> put</c><00:31:13.759><c> my</c>

00:31:30.960 --> 00:31:32.480
There<00:31:31.440><c> will</c><00:31:31.579><c> be</c><00:31:31.740><c> a</c><00:31:31.940><c> repetition</c>

00:31:34.240 --> 00:31:36.380
That's<00:31:34.819><c> the</c><00:31:35.079><c> language</c><00:31:35.519><c> of</c><00:31:35.819><c> Ezekiel</c>

00:31:36.380 --> 00:31:38.240
38,<00:31:37.160><c> and</c><00:31:37.900><c> it's</c>

00:31:38.240 --> 00:31:40.319

00:31:53.980 --> 00:31:56.240
I<00:31:54.359><c> will</c><00:31:54.619><c> turn</c><00:31:54.900><c> thee</c><00:31:55.220><c> back</c><00:31:55.519><c> by</c><00:31:55.740><c> the</c><00:31:55.900><c> way</c><00:31:56.019><c> that</c>

00:31:57.859 --> 00:32:00.400
Then<00:31:58.160><c> God</c><00:31:58.480><c> says</c><00:31:58.819><c> this</c><00:31:59.140><c> to</c><00:31:59.359><c> the</c><00:31:59.480><c> rest</c><00:31:59.619><c> of</c><00:31:59.759><c> his</c><00:31:59.960><c> people.</c>

00:34:41.659 --> 00:34:42.900
God<00:34:42.039><c> is</c><00:34:42.480><c> promising</c>

00:34:48.599 --> 00:34:50.699
You<00:34:48.739><c> might</c><00:34:48.960><c> wonder</c><00:34:49.219><c> why</c><00:34:49.480><c> He</c><00:34:49.639><c> would</c><00:34:49.860><c> give</c><00:34:50.019><c> that</c><00:34:50.320><c> promise.</c>

00:35:17.760 --> 00:35:18.980
You<00:35:17.960><c> shall</c><00:35:18.260><c> eat</c><00:35:18.559><c> of</c><00:35:18.679><c> that</c>

00:35:32.519 --> 00:35:33.239
Now,<00:35:32.699><c> brothers</c><00:35:32.760><c> and</c><00:35:33.019><c> sisters,</c>

00:35:33.260 --> 00:35:35.300

00:35:51.760 --> 00:35:53.039
These<00:35:52.039><c> are</c><00:35:52.360><c> fundamental</c>

00:35:53.039 --> 00:35:55.159

So<00:36:01.719><c> we</c><00:36:01.940><c> turn</c><00:36:02.159><c> to</c><00:36:02.360><c> Leviticus</c><00:36:02.760><c> 25,</c>

00:36:19.940 --> 00:36:21.320
The<00:36:20.179><c> rest</c><00:36:20.380><c> actually</c><00:36:20.840><c> was</c><00:36:21.079><c> to</c>
