00:01:07.000 --> 00:01:11.359
That<00:01:07.340><c> was</c><00:01:07.599><c> actually</c><00:01:08.180><c> destroyed</c><00:01:08.879><c> by</c><00:01:09.140><c> the</c><00:01:09.299><c> Amalekites</c><00:01:10.280><c> when</c><00:01:11.120><c> he</c>

00:01:11.359 --> 00:01:14.379
was<00:01:11.659><c> away</c><00:01:12.019><c> with</c><00:01:12.280><c> the</c><00:01:12.480><c> Philistines,</c><00:01:14.239><c> kind</c>

00:01:14.379 --> 00:01:16.519
of<00:01:14.560><c> playing</c><00:01:14.739><c> political</c><00:01:15.280><c> games</c><00:01:15.640><c> with</c><00:01:15.840><c> the</c><00:01:16.040><c> Philistines.</c>

00:01:16.579 --> 00:01:18.280
Was<00:01:16.719><c> he</c><00:01:16.879><c> going</c><00:01:17.019><c> to</c><00:01:17.120><c> be</c><00:01:17.260><c> with</c><00:01:17.420><c> the</c><00:01:17.640><c> Philistines?</c>

00:01:18.560 --> 00:01:19.819
Was<00:01:18.760><c> he</c><00:01:18.980><c> not</c><00:01:19.260><c> going</c><00:01:19.560><c> to</c><00:01:19.719><c> be?</c>

00:01:19.819 --> 00:01:25.200
So<00:01:20.079><c> while</c><00:01:20.319><c> he</c><00:01:20.420><c> was</c><00:01:20.620><c> doing</c><00:01:20.900><c> all</c><00:01:21.200><c> this,</c><00:01:21.859><c> he</c><00:01:22.000><c> left</c><00:01:22.420><c> his</c><00:01:23.319><c> city</c><00:01:23.640><c> exposed,</c><00:01:25.040><c> and</c>

00:01:25.200 --> 00:01:26.519
the<00:01:25.340><c> Amalekites,</c><00:01:25.920><c> as</c><00:01:26.140><c> we</c><00:01:26.319><c> know,</c>

00:01:26.560 --> 00:01:29.200
I<00:01:26.700><c> think</c><00:01:26.799><c> this</c><00:01:27.060><c> 31st</c><00:01:27.560><c> chapter</c><00:01:27.859><c> of</c><00:01:28.019><c> 1</c><00:01:28.219><c> Samuel</c><00:01:28.480><c> came</c><00:01:28.799><c> up</c><00:01:29.060><c> and</c>

00:01:29.200 --> 00:01:29.879
took<00:01:29.439><c> everything.</c>

00:01:29.920 --> 00:01:33.000
It<00:01:30.040><c> was</c><00:01:30.219><c> a</c><00:01:30.359><c> raiding</c><00:01:30.659><c> party,</c><00:01:31.540><c> and</c><00:01:31.719><c> they</c><00:01:31.920><c> took</c><00:01:32.079><c> away</c><00:01:32.319><c> all</c><00:01:32.620><c> of</c><00:01:32.780><c> the</c>

00:01:33.000 --> 00:01:34.480
goods<00:01:33.239><c> and</c><00:01:33.459><c> the</c><00:01:33.680><c> wealth</c><00:01:33.900><c> that</c><00:01:34.099><c> was</c><00:01:34.340><c> in</c>

00:01:34.480 --> 00:01:38.019
Ziklag,<00:01:34.859><c> which</c><00:01:35.040><c> I</c><00:01:35.219><c> would</c><00:01:35.500><c> imagine</c><00:01:36.159><c> was</c><00:01:36.799><c> considerable.</c>

00:01:39.320 --> 00:01:42.760
David,<00:01:39.840><c> this</c><00:01:40.040><c> was</c><00:01:40.180><c> really</c><00:01:40.459><c> a</c><00:01:40.620><c> very</c><00:01:40.980><c> low</c><00:01:41.239><c> point</c><00:01:41.579><c> of</c><00:01:41.799><c> David.</c>

00:01:42.900 --> 00:01:47.299
It<00:01:43.420><c> says</c><00:01:43.700><c> that</c><00:01:43.959><c> the</c><00:01:44.159><c> people</c><00:01:44.840><c> spoke</c><00:01:45.719><c> of</c><00:01:46.120><c> stoning</c><00:01:46.579><c> him</c><00:01:46.980><c> because</c>

00:01:47.299 --> 00:01:49.640
they<00:01:47.480><c> were</c><00:01:47.739><c> so</c><00:01:48.019><c> distressed,</c><00:01:49.060><c> and</c><00:01:49.379><c> there's</c>

00:01:49.640 --> 00:01:52.480
one<00:01:49.739><c> great</c><00:01:50.120><c> little</c><00:01:50.400><c> line</c><00:01:50.719><c> in</c><00:01:50.959><c> there</c><00:01:51.180><c> that</c><00:01:51.319><c> I</c><00:01:51.379><c> think</c><00:01:51.599><c> we</c><00:01:52.019><c> should</c>

00:01:52.480 --> 00:01:55.439
remember<00:01:53.439><c> this,</c><00:01:53.819><c> that</c><00:01:53.939><c> in</c><00:01:54.239><c> David's</c><00:01:54.840><c> distress</c>

00:01:55.439 --> 00:02:03.099
and<00:01:55.700><c> in</c><00:01:55.879><c> his</c><00:01:56.239><c> sadness,</c><00:01:57.299><c> he</c><00:01:57.579><c> did</c><00:01:57.859><c> one</c><00:01:58.299><c> thing</c><00:01:58.819><c> and</c><00:01:59.439><c> says</c><00:01:59.739><c> that</c><00:02:00.040><c> David</c><00:02:01.019><c> strengthened</c><00:02:02.200><c> himself</c><00:02:02.900><c> in</c>

00:02:03.099 --> 00:02:04.099
the<00:02:03.280><c> Lord.</c>

00:02:04.680 --> 00:02:07.700
And<00:02:05.000><c> I</c><00:02:05.099><c> think</c><00:02:05.239><c> that</c><00:02:05.439><c> comes</c><00:02:05.700><c> out</c><00:02:05.900><c> in</c><00:02:06.079><c> the</c><00:02:06.239><c> Psalms</c><00:02:06.560><c> as</c><00:02:06.840><c> well.</c>

00:02:07.900 --> 00:02:09.900
David<00:02:08.259><c> is</c><00:02:08.659><c> always</c><00:02:09.099><c> strengthening</c><00:02:09.560><c> himself.</c>

00:02:09.960 --> 00:02:13.979
The<00:02:10.180><c> psalm</c><00:02:10.360><c> that</c><00:02:10.520><c> we</c><00:02:10.680><c> read</c><00:02:10.840><c> today,</c><00:02:11.800><c> he's</c><00:02:12.479><c> strengthening</c><00:02:12.960><c> himself</c><00:02:13.520><c> in</c><00:02:13.780><c> God.</c>

00:02:14.139 --> 00:02:17.099
He's<00:02:14.360><c> remembering</c><00:02:14.800><c> the</c><00:02:15.060><c> power</c><00:02:15.460><c> of</c><00:02:15.719><c> God</c><00:02:15.900><c> that</c><00:02:16.120><c> despite</c><00:02:16.599><c> all</c><00:02:16.939><c> of</c>

00:02:17.099 --> 00:02:19.319
the<00:02:17.379><c> oppression</c><00:02:17.860><c> that</c><00:02:18.460><c> he's</c><00:02:18.759><c> going</c><00:02:19.060><c> to,</c>

00:02:19.319 --> 00:02:20.580
God<00:02:19.860><c> is</c><00:02:20.099><c> still</c><00:02:20.379><c> there.</c>

00:02:20.840 --> 00:02:23.319
And<00:02:20.960><c> ultimately,</c><00:02:21.400><c> David</c><00:02:21.699><c> trusted</c><00:02:22.139><c> in</c><00:02:22.340><c> him,</c><00:02:22.719><c> and</c><00:02:22.879><c> he</c><00:02:23.039><c> asked</c>

00:02:23.319 --> 00:02:24.639
through<00:02:23.699><c> the</c><00:02:23.879><c> Urim</c><00:02:24.039><c> and</c><00:02:24.180><c> the</c><00:02:24.360><c> Thorim,</c>

00:02:24.819 --> 00:02:26.319
shall<00:02:25.080><c> I</c><00:02:25.340><c> go?</c>

00:02:27.319 --> 00:02:31.819
And<00:02:27.800><c> God</c><00:02:28.280><c> said,</c><00:02:28.699><c> pursue,</c><00:02:29.840><c> for</c><00:02:29.939><c> thou</c><00:02:30.159><c> shalt</c><00:02:30.659><c> recover</c><00:02:31.360><c> all.</c>

00:02:32.259 --> 00:02:32.900
And<00:02:32.520><c> he</c><00:02:32.659><c> did.</c>

00:02:33.080 --> 00:02:37.120
So<00:02:33.379><c> it's</c><00:02:33.560><c> a</c><00:02:33.699><c> great</c><00:02:33.840><c> story,</c><00:02:34.719><c> and</c><00:02:35.340><c> it</c><00:02:35.599><c> should</c><00:02:35.740><c> encourage</c><00:02:36.240><c> us</c><00:02:36.659><c> when</c><00:02:36.919><c> we</c>

00:02:37.120 --> 00:02:38.340
go<00:02:37.319><c> through</c><00:02:37.560><c> difficult</c><00:02:38.039><c> times.</c>

00:02:38.439 --> 00:02:40.740
David<00:02:38.680><c> went</c><00:02:38.860><c> through</c><00:02:39.080><c> a</c><00:02:39.120><c> lot</c><00:02:39.360><c> of</c><00:02:39.539><c> ups</c><00:02:39.699><c> and</c><00:02:39.939><c> downs</c><00:02:40.159><c> in</c><00:02:40.340><c> his</c><00:02:40.539><c> life.</c>

00:02:41.080 --> 00:02:44.840
And<00:02:41.300><c> most</c><00:02:41.599><c> assuredly,</c><00:02:42.340><c> brothers</c><00:02:42.460><c> and</c><00:02:42.699><c> sisters,</c><00:02:43.300><c> losing</c><00:02:43.819><c> everything</c><00:02:44.560><c> that</c>

00:02:44.840 --> 00:02:45.879
you<00:02:45.159><c> have,</c><00:02:45.580><c> including</c>

00:02:45.879 --> 00:02:49.599
your<00:02:46.139><c> family,</c><00:02:47.919><c> is</c><00:02:48.099><c> rock</c><00:02:48.560><c> bottom.</c>

00:02:50.580 --> 00:02:53.319
But<00:02:50.740><c> he</c><00:02:51.000><c> overcame</c><00:02:51.379><c> that,</c><00:02:52.060><c> which</c><00:02:52.199><c> is</c><00:02:52.620><c> pretty</c><00:02:52.900><c> incredible.</c>

00:02:53.800 --> 00:02:55.039
All<00:02:53.939><c> right.</c>

00:02:55.319 --> 00:02:59.479
You<00:02:55.400><c> know,</c><00:02:55.879><c> there's</c><00:02:57.180><c> an</c><00:02:57.360><c> Amalekite</c><00:02:58.120><c> that</c><00:02:58.360><c> actually</c><00:02:58.919><c> brings</c>

00:02:59.479 --> 00:03:02.680
the<00:02:59.840><c> crown</c><00:03:00.439><c> to</c><00:03:01.860><c> David.</c>

00:03:02.819 --> 00:03:05.539
You<00:03:02.939><c> know,</c><00:03:03.060><c> once</c><00:03:03.300><c> again,</c><00:03:03.580><c> the</c><00:03:03.699><c> Amalekites</c><00:03:04.300><c> are</c><00:03:04.479><c> in</c><00:03:04.599><c> the</c><00:03:04.759><c> mix,</c><00:03:05.240><c> right?</c>

00:03:05.539 --> 00:03:09.240
This<00:03:05.759><c> is</c><00:03:06.000><c> why,</c><00:03:06.379><c> you</c><00:03:06.539><c> know,</c><00:03:06.599><c> they</c><00:03:06.780><c> loved</c><00:03:07.080><c> war,</c><00:03:07.659><c> they</c><00:03:07.740><c> loved</c><00:03:08.039><c> raiding,</c><00:03:08.599><c> that</c><00:03:08.800><c> type</c><00:03:09.020><c> of</c><00:03:09.159><c> thing.</c>

00:03:09.280 --> 00:03:12.280
And<00:03:09.400><c> this</c><00:03:09.479><c> is</c><00:03:09.620><c> one</c><00:03:09.740><c> of</c><00:03:09.840><c> the</c><00:03:09.919><c> reasons</c><00:03:10.300><c> why,</c><00:03:10.719><c> that</c><00:03:10.919><c> God</c><00:03:11.159><c> says,</c><00:03:12.000><c> I</c>

00:03:12.280 --> 00:03:14.780
am<00:03:12.639><c> forever</c><00:03:13.280><c> at</c><00:03:13.580><c> war</c><00:03:13.879><c> against</c><00:03:14.280><c> Amalek.</c>

00:03:14.780 --> 00:03:18.419
And<00:03:15.219><c> it</c><00:03:15.340><c> wasn't</c><00:03:15.599><c> just</c><00:03:15.879><c> because,</c><00:03:16.219><c> like,</c><00:03:16.759><c> a</c><00:03:16.979><c> racial</c><00:03:17.460><c> thing</c><00:03:17.979><c> or</c>

00:03:18.419 --> 00:03:20.300
anything<00:03:18.780><c> had</c><00:03:19.400><c> nothing</c><00:03:19.680><c> to</c><00:03:19.860><c> do</c><00:03:19.939><c> with</c><00:03:20.159><c> that.</c>

00:03:20.379 --> 00:03:23.080
In<00:03:20.460><c> fact,</c><00:03:21.960><c> they</c><00:03:22.039><c> were</c><00:03:22.280><c> related</c><00:03:22.520><c> to</c><00:03:22.740><c> each</c><00:03:22.919><c> other.</c>

00:03:23.199 --> 00:03:26.280
The<00:03:23.319><c> Hebrews</c><00:03:23.560><c> and</c><00:03:23.740><c> the</c><00:03:23.840><c> Amalekites</c><00:03:24.360><c> were</c><00:03:24.539><c> related</c><00:03:24.900><c> to</c><00:03:25.099><c> each</c><00:03:25.300><c> other.</c>

00:03:26.419 --> 00:03:29.939
Jacob<00:03:26.659><c> and</c><00:03:26.900><c> Esau,</c><00:03:27.159><c> Esau's</c><00:03:27.699><c> descendants,</c><00:03:28.439><c> were</c><00:03:28.639><c> the</c><00:03:28.800><c> Amalekites.</c>

00:03:30.800 --> 00:03:32.340
But,<00:03:30.979><c> you</c><00:03:31.099><c> know,</c><00:03:31.199><c> there</c><00:03:31.300><c> was</c><00:03:31.539><c> always</c><00:03:31.860><c> this</c><00:03:32.080><c> tension.</c>

00:03:32.419 --> 00:03:35.800
And<00:03:32.620><c> God</c><00:03:33.120><c> didn't</c><00:03:33.620><c> want</c><00:03:33.960><c> those</c><00:03:34.300><c> types</c><00:03:34.599><c> of</c><00:03:34.879><c> people</c><00:03:35.180><c> near</c><00:03:35.460><c> his</c>

00:03:35.800 --> 00:03:37.319
people<00:03:36.139><c> because</c><00:03:36.460><c> they</c><00:03:36.680><c> were</c><00:03:36.900><c> vicious.</c>

00:03:37.699 --> 00:03:39.419
They<00:03:37.840><c> were</c><00:03:38.080><c> always</c><00:03:38.379><c> looking</c><00:03:38.699><c> to</c><00:03:39.060><c> fight.</c>

00:03:39.900 --> 00:03:42.900
And<00:03:40.080><c> the</c><00:03:40.319><c> biggest</c><00:03:40.599><c> thing</c><00:03:40.939><c> was</c><00:03:41.319><c> they</c><00:03:41.620><c> attacked</c><00:03:42.180><c> the</c><00:03:42.580><c> weak.</c>

00:03:42.900 --> 00:03:46.580
And<00:03:43.539><c> that</c><00:03:43.759><c> was</c><00:03:44.020><c> really</c><00:03:44.400><c> why</c><00:03:44.719><c> God</c><00:03:44.979><c> was</c><00:03:45.240><c> so</c><00:03:45.479><c> upset</c><00:03:45.819><c> and</c><00:03:46.180><c> angry</c><00:03:46.439><c> at</c>

00:03:46.580 --> 00:03:49.060
them<00:03:46.840><c> because</c><00:03:47.759><c> as</c><00:03:48.419><c> they</c><00:03:48.599><c> were</c><00:03:48.800><c> coming</c>

00:03:49.060 --> 00:03:54.439
out<00:03:49.319><c> of</c><00:03:49.520><c> Egypt,</c><00:03:51.080><c> the</c><00:03:51.159><c> Amalekites</c><00:03:51.960><c> attacked</c><00:03:52.979><c> the</c><00:03:53.539><c> old</c><00:03:53.900><c> and</c><00:03:54.120><c> the</c>

00:03:54.439 --> 00:03:55.539
infirmed<00:03:54.939><c> and</c><00:03:55.080><c> the</c><00:03:55.340><c> weak</c>

00:03:55.539 --> 00:03:57.460
and<00:03:55.699><c> the</c><00:03:55.860><c> people</c><00:03:56.000><c> that</c><00:03:56.139><c> couldn't</c><00:03:56.379><c> keep</c><00:03:56.620><c> up,</c><00:03:56.780><c> the</c><00:03:57.000><c> children.</c>

00:03:57.819 --> 00:04:00.460
And<00:03:58.039><c> they</c><00:03:58.240><c> took</c><00:03:58.479><c> all</c><00:03:58.879><c> of</c><00:03:59.080><c> them</c><00:03:59.900><c> away.</c>

00:04:00.620 --> 00:04:02.060
Yes,<00:04:00.879><c> Brother</c><00:04:01.180><c> Chris?</c>

00:04:04.800 --> 00:04:07.979
How<00:04:05.159><c> God</c><00:04:05.479><c> might</c><00:04:05.680><c> look</c><00:04:05.879><c> upon</c><00:04:06.139><c> October</c><00:04:06.520><c> 7th,</c><00:04:07.180><c> okay,</c><00:04:07.599><c> with</c><00:04:07.800><c> the</c>

00:04:07.979 --> 00:04:10.659
idea<00:04:08.240><c> of</c><00:04:09.219><c> the</c><00:04:09.439><c> Amalekites</c><00:04:10.080><c> and</c><00:04:10.259><c> Hamas,</c>

00:04:10.659 --> 00:04:14.080
how<00:04:10.919><c> they</c><00:04:11.180><c> came</c><00:04:11.400><c> in</c><00:04:12.020><c> and,</c><00:04:12.719><c> you</c><00:04:12.900><c> know,</c><00:04:13.419><c> slaughtered</c><00:04:13.759><c> very</c><00:04:13.919><c> much</c>

00:04:14.080 --> 00:04:15.180
the<00:04:14.360><c> innocent.</c>

00:04:15.360 --> 00:04:17.620
Yeah.<00:04:16.259><c> Great</c><00:04:16.660><c> point,</c><00:04:17.480><c> Chris.</c>

00:04:17.699 --> 00:04:21.459
And<00:04:17.800><c> that's</c><00:04:18.079><c> really,</c><00:04:19.319><c> you</c><00:04:19.459><c> know,</c><00:04:19.759><c> particularly</c><00:04:20.040><c> with</c><00:04:20.360><c> the</c><00:04:21.019><c> Amalekites.</c>

00:04:21.519 --> 00:04:23.420
But<00:04:21.620><c> if</c><00:04:21.779><c> you</c><00:04:21.879><c> look</c><00:04:22.040><c> at</c><00:04:22.180><c> a</c><00:04:22.240><c> lot</c><00:04:22.379><c> of</c><00:04:22.480><c> the</c><00:04:22.660><c> history</c><00:04:22.819><c> of</c><00:04:22.939><c> the</c><00:04:23.079><c> Middle</c><00:04:23.240><c> East,</c>

00:04:23.540 --> 00:04:26.779
particularly<00:04:23.759><c> with</c><00:04:23.959><c> the</c><00:04:24.120><c> Muslim</c><00:04:24.459><c> conquests</c><00:04:25.980><c> of</c><00:04:26.160><c> the</c><00:04:26.279><c> Middle</c><00:04:26.500><c> East,</c>

00:04:27.120 --> 00:04:28.759
a<00:04:27.139><c> lot</c><00:04:27.319><c> of</c><00:04:27.459><c> that</c><00:04:27.680><c> stuff</c><00:04:27.839><c> happened</c><00:04:28.220><c> as</c><00:04:28.519><c> well.</c>

00:04:29.160 --> 00:04:31.259
There<00:04:29.259><c> was,</c><00:04:29.600><c> you</c><00:04:29.740><c> know,</c><00:04:30.000><c> invasions,</c><00:04:30.500><c> people</c><00:04:30.779><c> were</c><00:04:31.040><c> killed,</c>

00:04:31.519 --> 00:04:32.939
taken<00:04:31.680><c> captive</c><00:04:32.259><c> as</c><00:04:32.560><c> slaves,</c>

00:04:33.100 --> 00:04:35.480
that<00:04:33.220><c> type</c><00:04:33.379><c> of</c><00:04:33.439><c> thing</c><00:04:33.620><c> over</c><00:04:33.980><c> and</c><00:04:34.060><c> over</c><00:04:34.399><c> and</c><00:04:34.459><c> over</c><00:04:34.779><c> again.</c>

00:04:35.680 --> 00:04:37.040
So<00:04:35.839><c> anyways,</c><00:04:36.300><c> yes.</c>

00:04:37.520 --> 00:04:41.339
So<00:04:38.040><c> David</c><00:04:38.420><c> is</c><00:04:38.620><c> going</c><00:04:38.800><c> to</c><00:04:38.959><c> execute</c><00:04:39.279><c> the</c><00:04:39.519><c> messenger</c><00:04:40.079><c> for</c><00:04:40.860><c> claiming</c><00:04:41.079><c> to</c>

00:04:42.259 --> 00:04:45.040
We<00:04:42.420><c> know</c><00:04:42.680><c> that</c><00:04:43.139><c> the</c><00:04:43.300><c> Amalekite</c><00:04:43.860><c> lied</c><00:04:44.279><c> about</c><00:04:44.680><c> that.</c>

00:04:45.060 --> 00:04:46.160
He<00:04:45.160><c> didn't</c><00:04:45.439><c> kill</c><00:04:45.699><c> him.</c>

00:04:46.459 --> 00:04:48.779
Saul<00:04:46.620><c> took</c><00:04:46.819><c> his</c><00:04:47.060><c> own</c><00:04:47.300><c> life</c><00:04:47.480><c> by</c><00:04:47.740><c> falling</c><00:04:48.079><c> on</c><00:04:48.319><c> his</c><00:04:48.519><c> sword.</c>

00:04:49.160 --> 00:04:54.160
The<00:04:49.300><c> Amalekite</c><00:04:49.899><c> obviously</c><00:04:50.319><c> kind</c><00:04:50.540><c> of</c><00:04:50.980><c> scavenging</c><00:04:51.399><c> around</c><00:04:51.939><c> after</c><00:04:53.040><c> the</c><00:04:53.279><c> battle,</c>

00:04:54.360 --> 00:04:56.819
stripping<00:04:54.720><c> everybody</c><00:04:55.300><c> of</c><00:04:55.980><c> their</c><00:04:56.519><c> armor.</c>

00:04:56.879 --> 00:04:57.779
And<00:04:56.980><c> that's</c><00:04:57.120><c> what</c><00:04:57.259><c> they</c><00:04:57.439><c> were</c><00:04:57.560><c> doing.</c>

00:04:57.899 --> 00:05:00.959
You<00:04:57.899><c> know,</c><00:04:58.339><c> armor</c><00:04:58.439><c> was</c><00:04:59.459><c> very</c><00:04:59.779><c> expensive.</c>

00:05:01.100 --> 00:05:03.939
And<00:05:01.279><c> if</c><00:05:01.439><c> you</c><00:05:01.600><c> can</c><00:05:01.779><c> go</c><00:05:02.019><c> and</c><00:05:02.319><c> find</c><00:05:02.579><c> armor,</c><00:05:03.319><c> you</c><00:05:03.319><c> know,</c><00:05:03.540><c> imagine</c>

00:05:03.939 --> 00:05:05.980
finding<00:05:04.439><c> Saul's</c><00:05:05.120><c> armor.</c>

00:05:06.000 --> 00:05:07.060
Pretty<00:05:06.319><c> good,</c><00:05:06.779><c> right?</c>

00:05:07.220 --> 00:05:10.240
Not<00:05:07.439><c> only</c><00:05:07.699><c> was</c><00:05:07.920><c> it</c><00:05:08.240><c> technologically</c><00:05:08.959><c> advanced,</c><00:05:09.839><c> they</c><00:05:10.000><c> all</c>

00:05:10.240 --> 00:05:11.160
had<00:05:10.379><c> the</c><00:05:10.560><c> best,</c><00:05:10.800><c> you</c><00:05:11.019><c> know,</c>

00:05:11.339 --> 00:05:12.959
weapons<00:05:11.579><c> and</c><00:05:11.779><c> the</c><00:05:11.899><c> best</c><00:05:12.199><c> armor.</c>

00:05:13.000 --> 00:05:16.019
But<00:05:13.199><c> think</c><00:05:13.459><c> about</c><00:05:13.720><c> it,</c><00:05:13.879><c> you</c><00:05:14.199><c> could</c><00:05:14.540><c> offer</c><00:05:14.860><c> that</c><00:05:15.100><c> up</c><00:05:15.259><c> to</c><00:05:15.439><c> your</c><00:05:15.699><c> God.</c>

00:05:16.360 --> 00:05:16.959
You<00:05:16.439><c> know</c><00:05:16.560><c> what</c><00:05:16.579><c> I'm</c><00:05:16.699><c> saying?</c>

00:05:17.000 --> 00:05:19.939
Like<00:05:17.279><c> the</c><00:05:17.899><c> armor</c><00:05:18.319><c> of</c><00:05:18.579><c> your</c><00:05:19.040><c> enemy.</c>

00:05:20.120 --> 00:05:21.939
Again,<00:05:20.199><c> that's</c><00:05:20.420><c> why</c><00:05:20.560><c> they</c><00:05:20.740><c> cut</c><00:05:20.879><c> off</c><00:05:21.060><c> his</c><00:05:21.300><c> head</c><00:05:21.459><c> and</c><00:05:21.639><c> hung</c><00:05:21.759><c> his</c>

00:05:21.939 --> 00:05:23.019

00:05:23.459 --> 00:05:25.639
This<00:05:23.620><c> is</c><00:05:23.720><c> what</c><00:05:23.779><c> you</c><00:05:24.000><c> did</c><00:05:24.079><c> in</c><00:05:24.220><c> the</c><00:05:24.399><c> Bronze</c><00:05:24.699><c> Age</c><00:05:25.000><c> and</c><00:05:25.139><c> the</c><00:05:25.319><c> early</c>

00:05:25.639 --> 00:05:26.500
Iron<00:05:25.959><c> Age,</c><00:05:26.279><c> right?</c>

00:05:26.560 --> 00:05:29.079
You<00:05:27.019><c> let</c><00:05:27.220><c> everyone</c><00:05:27.660><c> know</c><00:05:27.920><c> that</c><00:05:28.100><c> you</c><00:05:28.259><c> were</c><00:05:28.439><c> victorious.</c>

00:05:29.399 --> 00:05:32.939
And<00:05:29.740><c> you</c><00:05:30.079><c> degraded</c><00:05:31.279><c> and</c><00:05:31.740><c> debased</c><00:05:32.259><c> your</c><00:05:32.560><c> enemies.</c>

00:05:33.060 --> 00:05:34.160
And<00:05:33.279><c> that's</c><00:05:33.639><c> exactly</c><00:05:33.920><c> right.</c>

00:05:34.160 --> 00:05:38.439
And<00:05:34.639><c> after</c><00:05:35.040><c> that</c><00:05:35.339><c> war</c><00:05:35.600><c> on</c><00:05:35.759><c> Mount</c><00:05:35.980><c> Gilboa,</c><00:05:36.519><c> Israel</c><00:05:36.980><c> was</c><00:05:37.519><c> debased.</c>

00:05:38.819 --> 00:05:41.259
They<00:05:38.980><c> didn't</c><00:05:39.199><c> have</c><00:05:39.420><c> any</c><00:05:39.680><c> power</c><00:05:40.079><c> anymore</c><00:05:40.500><c> really</c><00:05:40.879><c> to</c><00:05:41.100><c> fight</c>

00:05:41.259 --> 00:05:41.920
the<00:05:41.519><c> Philistines.</c>

00:05:42.279 --> 00:05:45.100
Philistines<00:05:42.680><c> were</c><00:05:42.939><c> coming</c><00:05:43.180><c> and</c><00:05:43.480><c> going</c><00:05:43.699><c> as</c><00:05:43.939><c> they</c><00:05:44.259><c> pleased.</c>

00:05:45.939 --> 00:05:48.560
You<00:05:45.939><c> know,</c><00:05:46.279><c> David</c><00:05:46.500><c> was</c><00:05:46.740><c> down</c><00:05:47.019><c> in</c><00:05:47.180><c> the</c><00:05:47.360><c> south,</c><00:05:47.819><c> so</c><00:05:48.259><c> it</c><00:05:48.360><c> was</c><00:05:48.500><c> a</c>

00:05:48.560 --> 00:05:49.600
very<00:05:48.819><c> difficult</c><00:05:49.199><c> time.</c>

00:05:49.899 --> 00:05:53.779
I<00:05:49.899><c> think</c><00:05:50.100><c> that</c><00:05:50.300><c> says</c><00:05:50.459><c> that</c><00:05:50.660><c> they</c><00:05:50.839><c> all</c><00:05:51.060><c> fled,</c><00:05:51.459><c> like</c><00:05:51.699><c> all</c><00:05:52.040><c> of</c><00:05:52.199><c> Israel</c><00:05:52.519><c> fled,</c><00:05:53.300><c> you</c><00:05:53.519><c> know,</c>

00:05:57.379 --> 00:06:00.500
They<00:05:57.540><c> were</c><00:05:57.720><c> just</c><00:05:58.279><c> completely</c><00:05:58.800><c> afraid</c><00:05:59.379><c> no</c><00:05:59.639><c> one</c><00:05:59.819><c> could</c><00:06:00.000><c> help</c><00:06:00.279><c> them.</c>

00:06:05.399 --> 00:06:06.319
Difficult<00:06:05.959><c> time.</c>

00:06:06.740 --> 00:06:10.759
And<00:06:06.939><c> so</c><00:06:07.079><c> you</c><00:06:07.180><c> can</c><00:06:07.459><c> understand</c><00:06:08.240><c> why</c><00:06:09.079><c> people</c><00:06:09.540><c> were</c><00:06:09.920><c> looking</c><00:06:10.339><c> to</c>

00:06:15.360 --> 00:06:18.439
You<00:06:15.480><c> know,</c><00:06:15.680><c> it's</c><00:06:15.839><c> almost</c><00:06:16.160><c> like</c><00:06:16.480><c> we're</c><00:06:16.980><c> in</c><00:06:17.120><c> a</c><00:06:17.300><c> tough</c><00:06:17.439><c> time,</c><00:06:17.980><c> but</c>

And<00:06:20.879><c> David,</c><00:06:21.579><c> I</c><00:06:22.100><c> think,</c><00:06:22.379><c> had</c><00:06:22.519><c> some</c><00:06:22.920><c> foresight</c><00:06:23.339><c> in</c><00:06:23.480><c> this,</c><00:06:23.699><c> brothers</c><00:06:23.899><c> and</c><00:06:24.160><c> sisters,</c>

Every<00:06:39.240><c> time</c><00:06:39.379><c> we</c><00:06:39.500><c> went</c><00:06:39.620><c> on</c><00:06:39.819><c> a</c><00:06:39.959><c> raiding</c><00:06:40.180><c> party,</c><00:06:41.100><c> what</c><00:06:41.699><c> did</c><00:06:41.800><c> he</c><00:06:41.899><c> do?</c>

00:08:27.379 --> 00:08:29.639
just<00:08:27.600><c> because</c><00:08:27.959><c> of</c><00:08:28.160><c> the</c><00:08:28.420><c> technology</c><00:08:28.959><c> that</c><00:08:29.220><c> they</c><00:08:29.420><c> had.</c>

00:08:29.720 --> 00:08:33.820
They<00:08:29.879><c> had</c><00:08:30.120><c> a</c><00:08:30.240><c> lot</c><00:08:30.500><c> more,</c><00:08:31.040><c> you</c><00:08:32.080><c> know,</c><00:08:32.539><c> iron</c><00:08:32.700><c> weapons,</c><00:08:33.279><c> that</c><00:08:33.419><c> type</c><00:08:33.620><c> of</c>

00:08:36.659 --> 00:08:39.600
So,<00:08:37.440><c> and</c><00:08:37.600><c> they</c><00:08:37.759><c> came</c><00:08:37.960><c> from</c><00:08:38.179><c> different</c><00:08:38.419><c> parts</c><00:08:38.720><c> of</c><00:08:38.860><c> the</c><00:08:39.039><c> world,</c><00:08:39.419><c> too.</c>

00:08:39.620 --> 00:08:43.000
So<00:08:39.799><c> it</c><00:08:39.820><c> was</c><00:08:40.399><c> a</c><00:08:40.419><c> giant</c><00:08:40.879><c> big</c><00:08:41.220><c> upheaval</c><00:08:41.639><c> during</c><00:08:41.960><c> this</c><00:08:42.220><c> time.</c>

00:08:45.279 --> 00:08:52.220

00:08:52.899 --> 00:08:55.759
So<00:08:53.039><c> these</c><00:08:53.200><c> are</c><00:08:53.360><c> the</c><00:08:53.460><c> kingdoms</c><00:08:53.759><c> of</c><00:08:54.039><c> David</c><00:08:54.299><c> and</c><00:08:54.500><c> Ishbosheth.</c>

00:09:01.740 --> 00:09:05.539

Massive<00:09:22.500><c> metropolis,</c><00:09:23.779><c> okay?</c>

00:09:23.940 --> 00:09:28.139
Maybe<00:09:24.279><c> had,</c><00:09:24.639><c> you</c><00:09:24.740><c> know,</c><00:09:25.139><c> 50,</c><00:09:25.320><c> 60</c><00:09:25.940><c>,000</c><00:09:27.019><c> people</c><00:09:27.559><c> in</c><00:09:27.740><c> and</c><00:09:27.960><c> around</c>

00:09:28.139 --> 00:09:28.960
here,<00:09:28.440><c> okay?</c>

00:09:29.440 --> 00:09:33.019
And<00:09:29.960><c> so</c><00:09:30.279><c> that's</c><00:09:30.659><c> huge</c><00:09:31.080><c> for</c><00:09:31.740><c> that</c><00:09:31.980><c> period</c><00:09:32.379><c> of</c><00:09:32.679><c> time.</c>

00:09:33.500 --> 00:09:36.220
And<00:09:33.799><c> so</c><00:09:33.980><c> this</c><00:09:34.159><c> is</c><00:09:34.440><c> where</c><00:09:34.679><c> all</c><00:09:34.980><c> of</c><00:09:35.139><c> the</c><00:09:35.419><c> raiders</c><00:09:35.740><c> would</c><00:09:36.000><c> come</c>

00:09:36.220 --> 00:09:36.820
out,<00:09:36.659><c> too.</c>

00:09:36.840 --> 00:09:40.059
The<00:09:37.139><c> oppression</c><00:09:37.559><c> from</c><00:09:37.840><c> the</c><00:09:38.019><c> Philistines</c><00:09:38.460><c> would</c><00:09:38.679><c> come</c><00:09:38.860><c> from</c><00:09:39.080><c> Gath.</c>

00:09:40.020 --> 00:09:42.820
And<00:09:40.320><c> in</c><00:09:40.580><c> fact,</c><00:09:41.019><c> you</c><00:09:41.100><c> know,</c><00:09:41.480><c> who</c><00:09:41.779><c> else</c><00:09:42.059><c> came</c><00:09:42.340><c> from</c><00:09:42.620><c> Gath?</c>

00:09:42.820 --> 00:09:44.779
Well,<00:09:43.000><c> we</c><00:09:43.080><c> know</c><00:09:43.240><c> who</c><00:09:43.480><c> came</c><00:09:43.639><c> from</c><00:09:43.840><c> Gath,</c><00:09:44.299><c> right?</c>

00:09:45.179 --> 00:09:51.600
Goliath.<00:09:47.059><c> So</c><00:09:47.500><c> up</c><00:09:48.320><c> in</c><00:09:48.480><c> the</c><00:09:48.679><c> north,</c><00:09:49.179><c> particularly</c><00:09:49.519><c> in</c><00:09:49.820><c> Benjamin,</c><00:09:51.100><c> this</c><00:09:51.360><c> is</c>

00:09:51.600 --> 00:09:54.859
where<00:09:51.799><c> we</c><00:09:52.059><c> have,</c><00:09:52.639><c> you</c><00:09:53.940><c> know,</c>

00:09:55.519 --> 00:09:58.399
Saul's<00:09:56.120><c> family</c><00:09:56.559><c> still</c><00:09:57.019><c> controlling</c><00:09:57.679><c> this</c><00:09:58.019><c> area.</c>

00:09:58.620 --> 00:10:01.720
But<00:09:58.960><c> as</c><00:09:59.279><c> you</c><00:09:59.440><c> can</c><00:09:59.679><c> see,</c><00:10:00.000><c> the</c><00:10:00.220><c> Philistines</c><00:10:00.759><c> with</c><00:10:00.980><c> the</c><00:10:01.399><c> arrows</c>

00:10:01.720 --> 00:10:04.639
there<00:10:02.159><c> are</c><00:10:02.860><c> invading</c><00:10:03.399><c> all</c><00:10:03.720><c> of</c><00:10:03.899><c> these</c><00:10:04.139><c> areas.</c>

00:10:05.080 --> 00:10:06.960
So<00:10:05.360><c> they</c><00:10:05.559><c> don't</c><00:10:05.820><c> have</c><00:10:06.139><c> strong</c><00:10:06.539><c> borders.</c>

00:10:06.960 --> 00:10:11.240
The<00:10:07.600><c> Philistines</c><00:10:08.059><c> are</c><00:10:08.320><c> coming</c><00:10:08.519><c> and</c><00:10:08.860><c> going</c><00:10:09.059><c> as</c><00:10:09.360><c> they</c><00:10:09.639><c> want,</c><00:10:10.539><c> and</c><00:10:10.940><c> a</c>

00:10:11.240 --> 00:10:12.299
very<00:10:11.539><c> difficult</c><00:10:12.019><c> time.</c>

00:10:12.320 --> 00:10:15.559
But<00:10:12.460><c> you</c><00:10:12.539><c> can</c><00:10:12.740><c> see</c><00:10:12.860><c> that</c><00:10:13.080><c> David</c><00:10:13.299><c> starts</c><00:10:13.720><c> out</c><00:10:13.940><c> with</c><00:10:14.080><c> a</c><00:10:14.200><c> very</c><00:10:14.480><c> small</c><00:10:14.820><c> region</c><00:10:15.279><c> of</c>

00:10:15.559 --> 00:10:15.980
what<00:10:15.720><c> is</c><00:10:15.879><c> going</c>

00:10:15.980 --> 00:10:17.899
to<00:10:16.059><c> be</c><00:10:16.259><c> Israel</c><00:10:16.820><c> down</c><00:10:17.360><c> in</c><00:10:17.559><c> the</c><00:10:17.720><c> south.</c>

00:10:18.039 --> 00:10:20.559
And<00:10:18.299><c> there's</c><00:10:18.500><c> names</c><00:10:18.799><c> that</c><00:10:19.039><c> are</c><00:10:19.259><c> all</c><00:10:19.519><c> familiar</c><00:10:19.879><c> with</c><00:10:20.080><c> this,</c><00:10:20.379><c> right?</c>

00:10:20.679 --> 00:10:22.879
Jerusalem,<00:10:21.799><c> Bethlehem,</c><00:10:22.679><c> Hebron.</c>

00:10:22.919 --> 00:10:24.360
Look<00:10:23.080><c> where</c><00:10:23.259><c> Jerusalem</c><00:10:23.840><c> is.</c>

00:10:24.740 --> 00:10:29.080
It's<00:10:24.960><c> like</c><00:10:25.980><c> right</c><00:10:26.159><c> on</c><00:10:26.379><c> the</c><00:10:26.659><c> border</c><00:10:27.000><c> between</c><00:10:27.879><c> Israel</c><00:10:28.559><c> and</c><00:10:28.840><c> Judah.</c>

00:10:29.139 --> 00:10:30.039
That's<00:10:29.500><c> interesting.</c>

00:10:30.460 --> 00:10:33.360
David's<00:10:30.940><c> down</c><00:10:31.220><c> in</c><00:10:31.480><c> Hebron</c><00:10:31.840><c> for</c><00:10:32.059><c> seven</c><00:10:32.379><c> and</c><00:10:32.600><c> a</c><00:10:32.639><c> half</c><00:10:32.879><c> years.</c>

00:10:33.360 --> 00:10:37.559
He's<00:10:34.080><c> going</c><00:10:34.179><c> to</c><00:10:34.340><c> move</c><00:10:34.679><c> northward</c><00:10:35.539><c> up</c><00:10:35.759><c> to</c><00:10:36.019><c> Jerusalem</c><00:10:36.740><c> and</c><00:10:37.399><c> make</c>

00:10:37.559 --> 00:10:38.659
that<00:10:37.899><c> his</c><00:10:38.159><c> capital.</c>

00:10:38.940 --> 00:10:40.100
And<00:10:39.259><c> that</c><00:10:39.480><c> makes</c><00:10:39.759><c> sense.</c>

00:10:40.120 --> 00:10:46.080
You<00:10:40.279><c> want</c><00:10:40.440><c> to</c><00:10:40.620><c> move</c><00:10:40.940><c> closer</c><00:10:41.379><c> to</c><00:10:41.600><c> kind</c><00:10:41.759><c> of</c><00:10:41.860><c> the</c><00:10:42.120><c> middle</c><00:10:42.600><c> of</c><00:10:43.919><c> Israel,</c><00:10:46.080><c> you</c>

00:10:46.080 --> 00:10:47.299
know,<00:10:46.320><c> in</c><00:10:46.360><c> order</c><00:10:46.659><c> to,</c><00:10:47.080><c> you</c><00:10:47.179><c> know,</c>

00:10:47.399 --> 00:10:49.220
as<00:10:47.519><c> far</c><00:10:47.600><c> as</c><00:10:47.759><c> communication</c><00:10:48.360><c> and</c><00:10:48.620><c> stuff</c><00:10:48.799><c> like</c><00:10:49.080><c> that.</c>

00:10:49.220 --> 00:10:51.159
So<00:10:49.360><c> I</c><00:10:49.480><c> think</c><00:10:49.600><c> that's</c><00:10:49.840><c> pretty</c><00:10:50.080><c> interesting.</c>

00:10:51.440 --> 00:10:52.799
So<00:10:51.620><c> David</c><00:10:51.860><c> is</c><00:10:52.019><c> going</c><00:10:52.100><c> to</c><00:10:52.179><c> be</c><00:10:52.299><c> in</c><00:10:52.440><c> Hebron.</c>

00:10:52.820 --> 00:10:55.539
He's<00:10:52.980><c> going</c><00:10:53.100><c> to</c><00:10:53.179><c> be</c><00:10:53.299><c> in</c><00:10:53.379><c> there</c><00:10:53.600><c> seven,</c><00:10:53.940><c> seven</c><00:10:54.240><c> and</c><00:10:54.360><c> a</c><00:10:54.379><c> half</c><00:10:54.539><c> years</c><00:10:54.840><c> as</c><00:10:55.100><c> king.</c>

00:10:55.740 --> 00:11:00.240
And<00:10:56.100><c> very</c><00:10:56.759><c> slowly,</c><00:10:57.940><c> he's</c><00:10:58.399><c> going</c><00:10:58.580><c> to</c><00:10:58.980><c> consolidate</c><00:10:59.539><c> his</c><00:10:59.840><c> power</c>

00:11:00.240 --> 00:11:01.679
base,<00:11:00.799><c> strengthen</c><00:11:01.080><c> himself.</c>

00:11:01.679 --> 00:11:05.039
It<00:11:02.360><c> says</c><00:11:02.720><c> that</c><00:11:02.980><c> there</c><00:11:03.200><c> was</c><00:11:03.659><c> sore</c><00:11:04.000><c> war,</c><00:11:04.720><c> all</c><00:11:04.940><c> right?</c>

00:11:05.059 --> 00:11:07.179
So<00:11:05.240><c> there</c><00:11:05.340><c> was,</c><00:11:06.059><c> it</c><00:11:06.059><c> was</c><00:11:06.059><c> hard</c><00:11:06.340><c> war.</c>

00:11:07.220 --> 00:11:09.019
Most<00:11:07.480><c> civil</c><00:11:07.820><c> wars</c><00:11:08.080><c> are</c><00:11:08.399><c> hard,</c><00:11:08.799><c> right?</c>

00:11:09.200 --> 00:11:11.100
Brutal.<00:11:10.039><c> Violent.</c>

00:11:11.779 --> 00:11:14.779
Some<00:11:12.059><c> of</c><00:11:12.220><c> the</c><00:11:12.379><c> worst</c><00:11:12.659><c> wars</c><00:11:13.120><c> fought</c><00:11:13.399><c> in</c><00:11:13.600><c> history</c><00:11:13.919><c> are</c><00:11:14.139><c> civil</c><00:11:14.480><c> wars.</c>

00:11:15.039 --> 00:11:17.159
Okay?<00:11:15.240><c> Just</c><00:11:15.419><c> think</c><00:11:15.620><c> about</c><00:11:15.840><c> this</c><00:11:16.080><c> country</c><00:11:16.399><c> here,</c><00:11:16.639><c> the</c><00:11:16.840><c> civil</c>

00:11:17.159 --> 00:11:18.519
war<00:11:17.539><c> that</c><00:11:18.059><c> we</c><00:11:18.340><c> had.</c>

00:11:18.720 --> 00:11:22.860
Six<00:11:18.899><c> hundred</c><00:11:19.320><c> thousand</c><00:11:20.399><c> Americans</c><00:11:21.480><c> are</c><00:11:21.679><c> going</c><00:11:21.799><c> to</c><00:11:22.019><c> die.</c>

00:11:23.519 --> 00:11:28.840
Up<00:11:24.080><c> until</c><00:11:24.460><c> the</c><00:11:24.720><c> Vietnam</c><00:11:25.299><c> War,</c><00:11:26.620><c> all</c><00:11:27.059><c> of</c><00:11:27.259><c> the</c><00:11:27.480><c> wars</c><00:11:27.679><c> that</c><00:11:27.960><c> we</c><00:11:28.220><c> were</c><00:11:28.519><c> in</c>

00:11:28.840 --> 00:11:31.039
after<00:11:29.200><c> the</c><00:11:29.460><c> civil</c><00:11:29.799><c> war</c><00:11:30.259><c> didn't,</c>

00:11:31.099 --> 00:11:33.039
didn't<00:11:31.579><c> reach</c><00:11:32.059><c> six</c><00:11:32.360><c> hundred</c><00:11:32.700><c> thousand.</c>

00:11:33.039 --> 00:11:36.299
That<00:11:33.240><c> just</c><00:11:33.440><c> shows</c><00:11:33.659><c> you</c><00:11:33.820><c> how</c><00:11:34.120><c> brutal</c><00:11:34.480><c> the</c><00:11:35.019><c> war</c><00:11:35.220><c> was.</c>

00:11:37.000 --> 00:11:40.039
Anyways,<00:11:38.340><c> civil</c><00:11:38.539><c> war</c><00:11:38.919><c> between</c><00:11:39.279><c> the</c><00:11:39.480><c> House</c><00:11:39.679><c> of</c><00:11:39.919><c> David.</c>

00:11:40.039 --> 00:11:43.620
We<00:11:40.179><c> have</c><00:11:40.320><c> this</c><00:11:40.559><c> great</c><00:11:40.820><c> little</c><00:11:41.120><c> story</c><00:11:41.620><c> where</c><00:11:42.460><c> Abner</c><00:11:42.980><c> and</c><00:11:43.279><c> Joab</c>

00:11:43.620 --> 00:11:45.419

You<00:11:52.039><c> got</c><00:11:52.179><c> twelve</c><00:11:52.519><c> really</c><00:11:52.840><c> good</c><00:11:53.019><c> guys.</c>

00:11:53.419 --> 00:11:55.340
And<00:11:53.539><c> they</c><00:11:53.700><c> all</c><00:11:53.960><c> fought</c><00:11:54.139><c> each</c><00:11:54.399><c> other.</c>

00:11:55.399 --> 00:11:57.399
And<00:11:55.580><c> I</c><00:11:55.659><c> think</c><00:11:55.779><c> they</c><00:11:56.000><c> all,</c><00:11:56.220><c> they</c><00:11:56.360><c> ended</c><00:11:56.500><c> up</c><00:11:56.700><c> killing</c><00:11:56.940><c> each</c><00:11:57.240><c> other.</c>

00:11:57.399 --> 00:11:59.419
Like<00:11:57.639><c> all,</c><00:11:58.080><c> all</c><00:11:58.279><c> twelve</c><00:11:58.559><c> of</c><00:11:58.639><c> them</c><00:11:58.860><c> were</c><00:11:59.039><c> gone</c><00:11:59.100><c> and</c><00:11:59.259><c> then</c><00:11:59.379><c> they</c>

Hold<00:12:01.120><c> on,</c><00:12:01.399><c> hold</c><00:12:01.580><c> on.</c>

00:12:02.980 --> 00:12:09.720
No,<00:12:03.279><c> no.</c><00:12:04.960><c> And</c><00:12:05.299><c> so</c><00:12:05.539><c> it</c><00:12:05.779><c> also</c><00:12:06.320><c> says</c><00:12:06.940><c> that</c><00:12:07.980><c> the</c><00:12:08.480><c> House</c><00:12:08.860><c> of</c><00:12:09.220><c> David</c>

00:12:09.720 --> 00:12:13.059
grew<00:12:10.139><c> stronger</c><00:12:10.820><c> and</c><00:12:11.320><c> stronger</c><00:12:11.860><c> while</c><00:12:12.480><c> the</c><00:12:12.740><c> House</c>

00:12:13.059 --> 00:12:14.919
of<00:12:13.399><c> Saul</c><00:12:13.559><c> grew</c><00:12:13.879><c> weaker</c><00:12:14.220><c> and</c><00:12:14.480><c> weaker.</c>

00:12:15.399 --> 00:12:18.200
And<00:12:15.679><c> so</c><00:12:15.799><c> it's</c><00:12:16.039><c> almost</c><00:12:16.299><c> like,</c><00:12:16.519><c> it's</c><00:12:16.700><c> very</c><00:12:17.039><c> interesting,</c><00:12:17.639><c> brothers</c><00:12:17.759><c> and</c><00:12:17.960><c> sisters,</c>

00:12:18.200 --> 00:12:22.820

00:12:22.820 --> 00:12:26.500
Even,<00:12:23.779><c> you</c><00:12:23.879><c> know,</c><00:12:24.080><c> even</c><00:12:24.299><c> after</c><00:12:24.600><c> all</c><00:12:24.960><c> the</c><00:12:25.100><c> prophecies</c><00:12:26.059><c> over</c>

every,<00:12:26.980><c> you</c><00:12:27.039><c> know,</c>

00:12:27.200 --> 00:12:30.899
all<00:12:27.399><c> the</c><00:12:27.580><c> things</c><00:12:27.740><c> that</c><00:12:27.919><c> had</c><00:12:28.120><c> happened,</c><00:12:29.379><c> the</c><00:12:29.659><c> destruction</c><00:12:30.139><c> of</c>

00:12:33.399 --> 00:12:34.200
And<00:12:33.700><c> here</c><00:12:33.840><c> we</c><00:12:34.039><c> go.</c>

00:12:34.220 --> 00:12:35.259
They're<00:12:34.480><c> still</c><00:12:34.740><c> hanging</c><00:12:35.000><c> on.</c>

00:12:35.360 --> 00:12:39.399
It's<00:12:35.500><c> very</c><00:12:35.860><c> difficult</c><00:12:36.500><c> to</c><00:12:36.860><c> give</c><00:12:37.100><c> up</c><00:12:37.399><c> power</c><00:12:37.799><c> once</c><00:12:38.059><c> you</c><00:12:38.320><c> have</c><00:12:38.519><c> it.</c>

House<00:12:39.779><c> of</c><00:12:40.039><c> Saul</c><00:12:40.240><c> wasn't</c><00:12:40.519><c> going</c><00:12:40.779><c> anywhere.</c>

00:12:41.919 --> 00:12:43.820
You<00:12:41.919><c> know,</c><00:12:42.440><c> Ishbo</c><00:12:42.779><c> Sheth</c><00:12:43.019><c> was</c><00:12:43.240><c> still</c><00:12:43.580><c> alive.</c>

00:12:43.860 --> 00:12:45.340
We<00:12:44.059><c> have</c><00:12:44.240><c> a</c><00:12:44.500><c> king.</c>

00:12:45.860 --> 00:12:46.759
What<00:12:46.039><c> are</c><00:12:46.120><c> you</c><00:12:46.240><c> talking</c><00:12:46.519><c> about?</c>

00:12:46.820 --> 00:12:49.360
Yeah,<00:12:47.019><c> it's</c><00:12:47.279><c> a</c><00:12:47.419><c> down</c><00:12:47.740><c> time,</c><00:12:47.980><c> but</c><00:12:48.100><c> we're</c><00:12:48.279><c> going</c><00:12:48.379><c> to</c><00:12:48.559><c> still,</c><00:12:48.740><c> we'll</c><00:12:49.179><c> get</c>

00:12:49.360 --> 00:12:49.940
back<00:12:49.700><c> there.</c>

00:12:49.940 --> 00:12:52.659
Remember<00:12:50.659><c> as</c><00:12:50.879><c> well,</c><00:12:51.200><c> brothers</c><00:12:51.320><c> and</c><00:12:51.500><c> sisters,</c><00:12:52.159><c> that,</c><00:12:52.220><c> you</c><00:12:52.320><c> know,</c><00:12:52.460><c> a</c>

00:12:52.659 --> 00:12:53.960
civil<00:12:52.919><c> war,</c><00:12:53.100><c> this</c><00:12:53.259><c> was</c><00:12:53.500><c> also</c><00:12:53.740><c> kind</c>

00:12:53.960 --> 00:12:56.179
of<00:12:54.100><c> a</c><00:12:54.220><c> family</c><00:12:54.679><c> feud</c><00:12:55.100><c> as</c><00:12:55.399><c> well,</c><00:12:55.659><c> wasn't</c><00:12:55.879><c> it?</c>

00:12:56.480 --> 00:12:59.960
Because<00:12:56.919><c> David</c><00:12:57.340><c> was</c><00:12:57.639><c> son</c><00:12:57.960><c>-in</c><00:12:58.179><c>-law</c><00:12:58.740><c> to</c><00:12:59.399><c> the</c><00:12:59.620><c> king.</c>

00:13:00.340 --> 00:13:01.600
So<00:13:00.519><c> he</c><00:13:00.620><c> was</c><00:13:00.820><c> part</c><00:13:01.059><c> of</c><00:13:01.240><c> the</c><00:13:01.379><c> family.</c>

00:13:01.659 --> 00:13:03.299
He<00:13:01.799><c> knew</c><00:13:02.019><c> these</c><00:13:02.340><c> guys</c><00:13:02.700><c> intimately.</c>

00:13:03.440 --> 00:13:05.559
You<00:13:03.539><c> don't</c><00:13:03.720><c> think</c><00:13:03.940><c> that</c><00:13:04.100><c> he</c><00:13:04.179><c> knew</c><00:13:04.399><c> Ishbo</c><00:13:04.820><c> Sheth</c><00:13:05.039><c> intimately?</c>

00:13:05.659 --> 00:13:06.139
He<00:13:05.879><c> knew</c><00:13:05.980><c> him.</c>

00:13:06.139 --> 00:13:09.700
He<00:13:06.340><c> probably</c><00:13:06.500><c> had</c><00:13:06.759><c> conversations</c><00:13:07.340><c> with</c><00:13:07.519><c> them,</c><00:13:07.679><c> hung</c><00:13:07.820><c> out</c><00:13:08.059><c> with</c><00:13:08.200><c> them,</c><00:13:08.899><c> had,</c><00:13:09.179><c> you</c><00:13:09.360><c> know,</c>

00:13:10.000 --> 00:13:12.600
maybe<00:13:10.220><c> celebrated</c><00:13:10.779><c> the</c><00:13:11.100><c> Passover</c><00:13:11.580><c> with</c><00:13:11.879><c> him.</c>

00:13:14.879 --> 00:13:18.220
So<00:13:15.320><c> Ishbo</c><00:13:15.759><c> Sheth</c><00:13:15.980><c> is</c><00:13:16.240><c> going</c><00:13:16.539><c> to</c><00:13:16.879><c> be</c><00:13:17.240><c> assassinated.</c>

00:13:18.220 --> 00:13:19.679
That's<00:13:18.779><c> the</c><00:13:18.919><c> other</c><00:13:19.139><c> thing,</c><00:13:19.500><c> too.</c>

00:13:19.919 --> 00:13:23.220
Abner<00:13:20.139><c> really</c><00:13:20.539><c> was</c><00:13:20.720><c> the</c><00:13:20.960><c> power</c><00:13:21.200><c> behind</c><00:13:21.580><c> the</c><00:13:21.840><c> throne,</c><00:13:22.059><c> wasn't</c><00:13:22.440><c> he?</c>

00:13:23.360 --> 00:13:27.679
And<00:13:23.600><c> once</c><00:13:24.259><c> he</c><00:13:24.639><c> changed</c><00:13:24.960><c> sides,</c><00:13:25.460><c> it</c><00:13:25.539><c> was</c><00:13:25.759><c> a</c><00:13:25.879><c> big</c><00:13:26.620><c> fight</c><00:13:26.960><c> over</c><00:13:27.240><c> one</c><00:13:27.519><c> of</c>

00:13:27.679 --> 00:13:29.120
Saul's<00:13:28.120><c> concubines,</c><00:13:28.659><c> right?</c>

00:13:29.200 --> 00:13:34.299
And<00:13:29.360><c> so</c><00:13:29.700><c> in</c><00:13:30.360><c> the</c><00:13:30.539><c> Bronze</c><00:13:30.899><c> Age</c><00:13:31.220><c> and</c><00:13:31.419><c> in</c><00:13:31.840><c> the</c><00:13:31.960><c> early</c><00:13:32.440><c> Iron</c><00:13:32.899><c> Age,</c><00:13:33.519><c> if</c><00:13:33.740><c> you</c><00:13:34.000><c> had</c><00:13:34.159><c> a</c>

00:13:35.399 --> 00:13:40.159
particularly<00:13:35.879><c> a</c><00:13:36.240><c> concubine</c><00:13:36.919><c> of</c><00:13:37.120><c> the</c><00:13:37.299><c> wife,</c><00:13:39.100><c> and</c><00:13:39.500><c> you</c><00:13:39.759><c> marry</c>

00:13:40.159 --> 00:13:41.240

00:13:41.460 --> 00:13:43.539
it's<00:13:41.759><c> almost</c><00:13:41.960><c> like</c><00:13:42.179><c> you</c><00:13:42.440><c> get</c><00:13:42.600><c> all</c><00:13:42.860><c> of</c><00:13:43.019><c> that</c><00:13:43.259><c> power.</c>

00:13:43.559 --> 00:13:45.059
You<00:13:43.659><c> get</c><00:13:43.840><c> the</c><00:13:44.059><c> power</c><00:13:44.279><c> of</c><00:13:44.519><c> the</c><00:13:44.639><c> king,</c><00:13:44.919><c> too.</c>

00:13:45.220 --> 00:13:46.259
The<00:13:45.440><c> king</c><00:13:45.679><c> had</c><00:13:45.940><c> this.</c>

00:13:46.419 --> 00:13:47.460
Well,<00:13:46.700><c> I</c><00:13:46.940><c> have</c><00:13:47.100><c> it</c><00:13:47.279><c> now.</c>

00:13:47.460 --> 00:13:47.980
Guess<00:13:47.779><c> what?</c>

00:13:48.000 --> 00:13:49.379

00:16:31.279 --> 00:16:35.120
Who<00:16:31.419><c> do</c><00:16:31.559><c> we</c><00:16:31.639><c> go</c><00:16:31.899><c> to</c><00:16:32.100><c> for,</c><00:16:32.639><c> hey,</c><00:16:33.019><c> can</c><00:16:33.120><c> I</c><00:16:33.240><c> do</c><00:16:33.480><c> this,</c><00:16:33.799><c> that,</c><00:16:34.179><c> the</c><00:16:34.360><c> other?</c>

00:16:40.960 --> 00:16:43.360
And<00:16:41.159><c> I</c><00:16:41.299><c> guess,</c><00:16:41.480><c> you</c><00:16:41.620><c> know,</c><00:16:41.700><c> you</c><00:16:41.799><c> can</c><00:16:41.940><c> have</c><00:16:42.080><c> a</c><00:16:42.159><c> pretty</c><00:16:42.379><c> good</c><00:16:42.620><c> run</c><00:16:42.840><c> sometimes.</c>

00:16:43.659 --> 00:16:46.639
But<00:16:43.840><c> sometimes,</c><00:16:44.340><c> you</c><00:16:44.539><c> know,</c><00:16:44.840><c> you're</c><00:16:45.720><c> the</c><00:16:45.940><c> worst</c><00:16:46.200><c> to</c><00:16:46.480><c> get</c>

00:16:51.860 --> 00:16:54.200
Remember,<00:16:52.159><c> it</c><00:16:52.279><c> was</c><00:16:52.379><c> kind</c><00:16:52.620><c> of</c><00:16:52.799><c> sitting,</c><00:16:53.019><c> I</c><00:16:53.120><c> think,</c><00:16:53.580><c> in</c><00:16:53.580><c> the</c><00:16:53.600><c> Kurjet</c><00:16:53.860><c> G</c>

00:16:56.379 --> 00:16:58.500
Oh,<00:16:56.639><c> I</c><00:16:56.899><c> forget</c><00:16:57.120><c> the</c><00:16:57.279><c> name</c><00:16:57.440><c> of</c><00:16:57.620><c> the</c><00:16:57.799><c> individual,</c><00:16:58.220><c> but</c><00:16:58.299><c> it</c><00:16:58.340><c> was</c>

00:16:58.500 --> 00:17:00.220
just<00:16:58.720><c> kind</c><00:16:58.860><c> of</c><00:16:59.039><c> sitting</c><00:16:59.240><c> there.</c>

00:17:01.179 --> 00:17:03.399
So<00:17:01.460><c> he</c><00:17:01.620><c> wants</c><00:17:01.879><c> to</c><00:17:02.100><c> bring</c><00:17:02.200><c> it</c><00:17:02.480><c> to</c><00:17:02.879><c> Jerusalem.</c>

00:17:03.460 --> 00:17:06.339
Now,<00:17:04.099><c> it</c><00:17:04.279><c> didn't</c><00:17:04.599><c> go</c><00:17:04.960><c> well</c><00:17:05.339><c> the</c><00:17:05.680><c> first</c><00:17:06.079><c> time.</c>

00:17:06.339 --> 00:17:10.660
Remember,<00:17:06.619><c> he</c><00:17:06.799><c> put</c><00:17:06.940><c> it</c><00:17:07.059><c> on</c><00:17:07.259><c> a</c><00:17:07.460><c> cot,</c><00:17:09.200><c> and,</c><00:17:09.200><c> you</c><00:17:09.480><c> know,</c><00:17:10.279><c> Uzziah</c>

tried<00:17:10.859><c> to</c><00:17:11.039><c> put</c><00:17:11.140><c> his</c><00:17:11.339><c> hand</c><00:17:11.559><c> up</c><00:17:11.740><c> to</c><00:17:11.980><c> stop</c><00:17:12.200><c> it</c>

00:17:12.359 --> 00:17:14.400
as<00:17:12.619><c> it</c><00:17:12.900><c> tipped</c><00:17:13.220><c> over,</c><00:17:13.619><c> and</c><00:17:13.740><c> he</c><00:17:14.000><c> died.</c>

00:17:14.720 --> 00:17:17.640
And<00:17:14.799><c> the</c><00:17:15.099><c> whole</c><00:17:15.440><c> celebration</c><00:17:16.180><c> was</c><00:17:16.539><c> turned</c><00:17:16.839><c> into</c><00:17:17.180><c> mourning</c>

00:17:17.640 --> 00:17:19.000
because,<00:17:18.680><c> you</c><00:17:18.859><c> know,</c>

00:17:19.059 --> 00:17:22.960
David<00:17:19.480><c> kind</c><00:17:19.799><c> of</c><00:17:19.940><c> did</c><00:17:20.180><c> things</c><00:17:20.440><c> his</c><00:17:20.660><c> own</c><00:17:21.059><c> way</c><00:17:21.759><c> and</c><00:17:22.339><c> didn't</c><00:17:22.640><c> show</c>

00:17:22.960 --> 00:17:25.240
the<00:17:23.259><c> proper</c><00:17:24.059><c> respect</c><00:17:24.759><c> to</c><00:17:25.000><c> the</c><00:17:25.180><c> Ark.</c>

00:17:25.240 --> 00:17:28.519
He<00:17:25.359><c> didn't</c><00:17:25.519><c> do</c><00:17:25.700><c> it</c><00:17:25.859><c> on</c><00:17:26.059><c> purpose,</c><00:17:27.599><c> but</c><00:17:27.720><c> he</c><00:17:27.720><c> didn't</c><00:17:28.000><c> follow</c><00:17:28.359><c> the,</c>

00:17:28.740 --> 00:17:30.400
he<00:17:28.859><c> was</c><00:17:29.079><c> supposed</c><00:17:29.240><c> to</c><00:17:29.359><c> be</c><00:17:29.539><c> carried</c><00:17:29.759><c> by</c><00:17:29.980><c> the</c><00:17:30.119><c> Levites.</c>

00:17:30.500 --> 00:17:32.160
So<00:17:30.660><c> eventually,</c><00:17:31.119><c> that</c><00:17:31.339><c> is</c><00:17:31.539><c> what</c><00:17:31.799><c> happens.</c>

00:17:32.160 --> 00:17:38.400
He<00:17:32.599><c> comes</c><00:17:32.920><c> in</c><00:17:33.200><c> all</c><00:17:33.380><c> joyful,</c><00:17:34.240><c> dancing</c><00:17:34.779><c> around</c><00:17:35.240><c> in</c><00:17:35.420><c> his</c><00:17:35.680><c> loincloth,</c><00:17:38.380><c> you</c>

00:17:40.400 --> 00:17:41.599
You<00:17:40.599><c> can</c><00:17:40.839><c> understand</c><00:17:41.299><c> that.</c>

00:17:41.599 --> 00:17:44.160
Just<00:17:41.880><c> think</c><00:17:42.079><c> about</c><00:17:42.380><c> where</c><00:17:42.680><c> David</c><00:17:43.039><c> was,</c><00:17:43.420><c> you</c><00:17:43.559><c> know,</c><00:17:43.759><c> like</c><00:17:43.960><c> 10</c>

00:17:44.160 --> 00:17:47.579
years<00:17:44.539><c> before</c><00:17:44.960><c> this,</c><00:17:46.160><c> and</c><00:17:46.420><c> where</c><00:17:46.599><c> he</c><00:17:46.759><c> was</c><00:17:47.039><c> now.</c>

00:17:47.940 --> 00:17:51.960
You<00:17:47.980><c> know,</c><00:17:48.740><c> running</c><00:17:49.119><c> from</c><00:17:49.539><c> Saul,</c><00:17:50.039><c> and</c><00:17:50.299><c> now</c><00:17:50.700><c> he's</c><00:17:51.019><c> king</c><00:17:51.319><c> in</c><00:17:51.539><c> Jerusalem.</c>

00:17:52.240 --> 00:17:55.599
He's<00:17:52.339><c> bringing</c><00:17:52.579><c> the</c><00:17:52.900><c> Ark</c><00:17:53.079><c> of</c><00:17:53.279><c> the</c><00:17:53.480><c> Covenant</c><00:17:53.839><c> into</c><00:17:54.339><c> his</c><00:17:54.700><c> city.</c>

00:17:55.859 --> 00:17:57.240
Pretty<00:17:56.160><c> awesome.</c>

00:17:57.279 --> 00:17:58.180
And<00:17:57.480><c> so</c><00:17:57.619><c> he's</c><00:17:57.839><c> excited.</c>

00:17:58.220 --> 00:17:59.059
He's<00:17:58.579><c> dancing</c><00:17:58.759><c> around.</c>

00:17:59.099 --> 00:18:01.039
It<00:17:59.180><c> was</c><00:17:59.279><c> a</c><00:17:59.440><c> time</c><00:17:59.599><c> of</c><00:17:59.920><c> celebration.</c>

00:18:01.440 --> 00:18:06.500
But<00:18:01.960><c> it</c><00:18:02.160><c> says</c><00:18:02.559><c> that,</c><00:18:03.380><c> you</c><00:18:03.680><c> know,</c><00:18:03.960><c> Michael</c><00:18:04.160><c> despised</c><00:18:05.180><c> him,</c><00:18:05.980><c> right,</c><00:18:06.500><c> and</c>

despised<00:18:07.759><c> him</c><00:18:07.940><c> in</c><00:18:08.079><c> his</c><00:18:08.259><c> heart.</c>

00:18:08.500 --> 00:18:09.640
Like,<00:18:08.660><c> what</c><00:18:09.119><c> are</c><00:18:09.279><c> you</c><00:18:09.440><c> doing?</c>

00:18:09.880 --> 00:18:11.339
You're<00:18:10.400><c> debasing</c><00:18:10.940><c> yourself.</c>

00:18:11.420 --> 00:18:13.059
You're<00:18:11.799><c> half</c><00:18:11.940><c> naked,</c><00:18:12.279><c> dancing</c><00:18:12.720><c> around.</c>

00:18:13.079 --> 00:18:14.200
What<00:18:13.200><c> are</c><00:18:13.339><c> you</c><00:18:13.460><c> doing?</c>

00:18:14.759 --> 00:18:18.400
And<00:18:15.140><c> so</c><00:18:15.480><c> there's</c><00:18:15.819><c> going</c><00:18:15.940><c> to</c><00:18:16.019><c> be</c><00:18:16.220><c> a</c><00:18:16.339><c> major</c><00:18:16.740><c> rift</c><00:18:17.059><c> between</c><00:18:17.440><c> Michael</c><00:18:17.839><c> and</c><00:18:18.119><c> David,</c>

00:18:18.400 --> 00:18:21.079
and<00:18:18.619><c> that</c><00:18:18.900><c> loving</c><00:18:19.259><c> relationship</c><00:18:20.059><c> is</c><00:18:20.579><c> no</c><00:18:20.880><c> more.</c>

00:18:21.359 --> 00:18:23.519
You<00:18:21.359><c> know,</c><00:18:21.859><c> David</c><00:18:22.200><c> had</c><00:18:22.380><c> no</c><00:18:22.720><c> real</c><00:18:22.980><c> relationship.</c>

00:18:23.559 --> 00:18:26.259
It<00:18:23.579><c> was</c><00:18:23.740><c> really</c><00:18:23.960><c> just</c><00:18:24.200><c> a</c><00:18:24.259><c> political</c><00:18:24.700><c> marriage,</c><00:18:25.180><c> unfortunately.</c>

00:18:26.319 --> 00:18:29.900
And<00:18:26.539><c> I</c><00:18:26.920><c> think,</c><00:18:27.420><c> brothers</c><00:18:27.559><c> and</c><00:18:27.799><c> sisters,</c><00:18:28.220><c> that</c><00:18:28.700><c> when</c><00:18:29.039><c> David</c><00:18:29.420><c> was</c><00:18:29.680><c> on</c>

00:18:29.900 --> 00:18:30.259
the<00:18:30.119><c> run,</c>

00:18:30.259 --> 00:18:33.779
Michael<00:18:30.700><c> was</c><00:18:31.019><c> given</c><00:18:31.400><c> to</c><00:18:31.880><c> another</c><00:18:32.259><c> individual,</c><00:18:33.220><c> Faneuil</c><00:18:33.559><c> or</c>

00:18:33.779 --> 00:18:34.500
something<00:18:34.079><c> like</c><00:18:34.380><c> that.</c>

00:18:34.559 --> 00:18:35.539
He<00:18:34.559><c> was</c><00:18:34.759><c> given.</c>

00:18:35.640 --> 00:18:38.460
And<00:18:36.099><c> it</c><00:18:36.220><c> sounds</c><00:18:36.500><c> like</c><00:18:36.759><c> that</c><00:18:37.000><c> was</c><00:18:37.240><c> really</c><00:18:37.579><c> a</c><00:18:37.720><c> nice</c><00:18:37.960><c> match.</c>

00:18:38.960 --> 00:18:39.700
They<00:18:39.119><c> got</c><00:18:39.359><c> along.</c>

00:18:39.720 --> 00:18:40.519
They<00:18:39.859><c> loved</c><00:18:40.119><c> each</c><00:18:40.339><c> other.</c>

00:18:40.579 --> 00:18:45.059
And<00:18:40.680><c> when</c><00:18:42.279><c> David</c><00:18:42.539><c> became</c><00:18:43.000><c> powerful,</c><00:18:43.920><c> one</c><00:18:44.099><c> of</c><00:18:44.259><c> the</c><00:18:44.420><c> things</c><00:18:44.619><c> that</c><00:18:44.819><c> he</c>

00:18:45.059 --> 00:18:47.680
wanted<00:18:45.299><c> was</c><00:18:45.579><c> he</c><00:18:45.839><c> wanted</c><00:18:46.180><c> Michael</c><00:18:46.579><c> back.</c>

00:18:47.819 --> 00:18:52.019
And<00:18:48.059><c> it's</c><00:18:48.720><c> this</c><00:18:48.839><c> really</c><00:18:49.279><c> sad</c><00:18:49.740><c> scene</c><00:18:50.359><c> where,</c><00:18:51.200><c> you</c><00:18:51.339><c> know,</c><00:18:51.460><c> Michael</c><00:18:51.759><c> has</c>

00:18:52.019 --> 00:18:53.359
to<00:18:52.160><c> go</c><00:18:52.420><c> back</c><00:18:52.660><c> to</c><00:18:52.920><c> David,</c>

00:18:53.819 --> 00:18:57.599
and<00:18:54.000><c> Faneuil</c><00:18:54.619><c> is</c><00:18:54.799><c> kind</c><00:18:55.019><c> of</c><00:18:55.359><c> walking</c><00:18:55.539><c> back,</c><00:18:56.059><c> you</c><00:18:56.119><c> know,</c><00:18:56.940><c> weeping,</c><00:18:57.599><c> and,</c>

00:18:57.599 --> 00:18:57.920
you<00:18:57.920><c> know,</c>

00:18:57.920 --> 00:19:00.720
your<00:18:58.119><c> wife,</c><00:18:58.859><c> who</c><00:18:59.039><c> you</c><00:18:59.299><c> love,</c><00:18:59.539><c> is</c><00:18:59.640><c> going</c><00:18:59.839><c> back</c><00:19:00.180><c> to</c><00:19:00.299><c> her,</c><00:19:00.579><c> you</c>

00:19:00.720 --> 00:19:02.920
know,<00:19:00.960><c> it's</c><00:19:01.180><c> all</c><00:19:01.539><c> convoluted</c><00:19:02.079><c> nonsense.</c>

00:19:03.079 --> 00:19:04.779
So,<00:19:03.599><c> yeah,</c><00:19:03.940><c> sad.</c>

00:19:07.500 --> 00:19:10.440
All<00:19:07.759><c> right,</c><00:19:07.859><c> here's</c><00:19:08.099><c> a</c><00:19:08.200><c> pretty</c><00:19:08.359><c> good</c><00:19:08.599><c> picture</c><00:19:09.019><c> right</c><00:19:09.380><c> here.</c>

00:19:10.460 --> 00:19:13.119
I<00:19:10.480><c> think</c><00:19:10.619><c> this</c><00:19:10.880><c> is</c><00:19:11.160><c> from</c><00:19:12.460><c> Ritmire.</c>

00:19:13.160 --> 00:19:15.400
Ritmire<00:19:13.519><c> put</c><00:19:13.720><c> this</c><00:19:13.960><c> together,</c><00:19:14.420><c> I</c><00:19:14.640><c> believe.</c>

00:19:15.819 --> 00:19:19.960
So,<00:19:16.059><c> anyways,</c><00:19:16.619><c> you</c><00:19:16.839><c> can</c><00:19:17.119><c> see</c><00:19:17.819><c> the</c><00:19:18.339><c> old</c><00:19:18.839><c> city,</c><00:19:19.220><c> which</c><00:19:19.420><c> is</c><00:19:19.680><c> down</c>

00:19:19.960 --> 00:19:21.160
on<00:19:20.160><c> the</c><00:19:20.339><c> left</c><00:19:20.559><c>-hand</c><00:19:20.819><c> side.</c>

00:19:21.380 --> 00:19:23.240
That's<00:19:21.799><c> the</c><00:19:22.059><c> original</c><00:19:22.460><c> city</c><00:19:22.799><c> of</c><00:19:23.039><c> David.</c>

00:19:23.279 --> 00:19:26.319
So,<00:19:23.440><c> not</c><00:19:23.660><c> a</c><00:19:23.900><c> massive</c><00:19:24.180><c> place,</c><00:19:25.119><c> but</c><00:19:25.380><c> it's</c><00:19:25.759><c> elevated.</c>

00:19:26.319 --> 00:19:28.180
It's<00:19:27.200><c> on</c><00:19:27.299><c> an</c><00:19:27.579><c> outcrop.</c>

00:19:28.500 --> 00:19:29.140
It's<00:19:28.740><c> walled.</c>

00:19:29.140 --> 00:19:31.140
David<00:19:29.440><c> is</c><00:19:29.640><c> going</c><00:19:29.799><c> to</c><00:19:30.019><c> wall</c><00:19:30.319><c> up</c><00:19:30.640><c> these</c><00:19:30.900><c> cities.</c>

00:19:31.140 --> 00:19:33.420
He's<00:19:31.400><c> going</c><00:19:31.519><c> to</c><00:19:31.640><c> go</c><00:19:31.799><c> on</c><00:19:31.980><c> a</c><00:19:32.119><c> kind</c><00:19:32.200><c> of</c><00:19:32.400><c> a</c><00:19:32.539><c> building</c><00:19:32.960><c> spree.</c>

00:19:33.799 --> 00:19:38.500
He's<00:19:34.019><c> going</c><00:19:34.200><c> to</c><00:19:34.440><c> fortify</c><00:19:35.039><c> Jerusalem,</c><00:19:36.640><c> build</c><00:19:36.759><c> towers,</c><00:19:38.279><c> build</c>

00:19:38.500 --> 00:19:40.240
walls,<00:19:39.200><c> greater</c><00:19:39.380><c> walls,</c><00:19:39.960><c> gates,</c>

00:19:40.299 --> 00:19:41.279
all<00:19:40.500><c> that</c><00:19:40.720><c> kind</c><00:19:40.960><c> of</c><00:19:41.099><c> stuff.</c>

00:19:41.700 --> 00:19:45.940
You<00:19:41.859><c> can</c><00:19:42.200><c> see</c><00:19:42.500><c> where</c><00:19:42.779><c> Mount</c><00:19:43.059><c> Zion,</c><00:19:43.539><c> Mount</c><00:19:43.799><c> Moriah</c><00:19:44.420><c> is,</c><00:19:44.960><c> right?</c>

00:19:46.119 --> 00:19:47.420
And<00:19:46.599><c> that's</c><00:19:46.900><c> up</c><00:19:47.140><c> top.</c>

00:19:47.680 --> 00:19:52.480
And<00:19:47.799><c> so,</c><00:19:48.000><c> eventually,</c><00:19:49.279><c> the</c><00:19:49.500><c> city</c><00:19:49.779><c> is</c><00:19:50.079><c> going</c><00:19:50.339><c> to</c><00:19:50.759><c> expand</c><00:19:51.640><c> both</c>

00:19:52.480 --> 00:19:55.920
up<00:19:53.380><c> to</c><00:19:53.700><c> the</c><00:19:53.920><c> right,</c><00:19:54.259><c> up</c><00:19:54.500><c> to</c><00:19:54.740><c> the</c><00:19:54.859><c> top</c><00:19:55.059><c> of</c><00:19:55.279><c> Mount</c><00:19:55.519><c> Zion,</c>

00:19:55.920 --> 00:20:00.019
but<00:19:56.099><c> also</c><00:19:56.599><c> it's</c><00:19:56.799><c> going</c><00:19:57.000><c> to</c><00:19:57.380><c> spread</c><00:19:57.640><c> outwardly</c><00:19:58.980><c> and</c><00:19:59.359><c> down</c><00:19:59.599><c> as</c><00:19:59.859><c> well,</c>

00:20:00.039 --> 00:20:01.819
to<00:20:00.160><c> the</c><00:20:00.299><c> point</c><00:20:00.420><c> where</c><00:20:00.579><c> you're</c><00:20:00.799><c> going</c><00:20:00.799><c> to</c><00:20:00.799><c> have</c><00:20:00.940><c> a</c><00:20:01.059><c> new</c><00:20:01.240><c> city</c><00:20:01.519><c> and</c><00:20:01.640><c> an</c>

00:20:01.819 --> 00:20:04.720
old<00:20:02.019><c> city,</c><00:20:03.099><c> two</c><00:20:03.440><c> distinct</c><00:20:04.180><c> areas.</c>

00:20:04.900 --> 00:20:07.119
You<00:20:05.059><c> go</c><00:20:05.240><c> to</c><00:20:05.420><c> Jerusalem</c><00:20:05.819><c> now,</c><00:20:06.240><c> you</c><00:20:06.279><c> know,</c><00:20:06.420><c> it's</c><00:20:06.619><c> a</c><00:20:06.740><c> million,</c><00:20:07.059><c> I</c>

00:20:07.119 --> 00:20:09.000
think,<00:20:07.380><c> 1</c><00:20:07.539><c>.2</c><00:20:07.900><c> million</c><00:20:08.140><c> people</c><00:20:08.559><c> live</c><00:20:08.740><c> in</c><00:20:08.839><c> it.</c>

00:20:09.380 --> 00:20:12.019
So,<00:20:09.599><c> this</c><00:20:09.779><c> is</c><00:20:09.960><c> going</c><00:20:10.039><c> to</c><00:20:10.180><c> become</c><00:20:10.400><c> a</c><00:20:10.619><c> great</c><00:20:10.799><c> city</c><00:20:11.180><c> in</c><00:20:11.380><c> this</c><00:20:11.599><c> area.</c>

00:20:12.380 --> 00:20:13.299
David's<00:20:12.779><c> going</c><00:20:12.920><c> to</c><00:20:13.039><c> build</c><00:20:13.140><c> it.</c>

00:20:13.299 --> 00:20:15.119
It's<00:20:13.440><c> actually</c><00:20:13.640><c> going</c><00:20:13.779><c> to</c><00:20:13.839><c> be</c><00:20:14.039><c> called</c><00:20:14.200><c> the</c><00:20:14.400><c> City</c><00:20:14.579><c> of</c><00:20:14.819><c> David.</c>

00:20:15.500 --> 00:20:19.680
And<00:20:15.680><c> his</c><00:20:15.859><c> son,</c><00:20:16.180><c> Solomon,</c><00:20:17.440><c> is</c><00:20:17.599><c> he</c><00:20:17.740><c> going</c><00:20:17.839><c> to</c><00:20:17.920><c> be</c><00:20:18.039><c> even</c><00:20:18.240><c> a</c><00:20:18.519><c> greater</c><00:20:18.759><c> builder</c><00:20:19.099><c> than</c><00:20:19.339><c> David.</c>

00:20:19.940 --> 00:20:22.559
