00:13:47.960 --> 00:13:51.639
It's<00:13:48.519><c> the</c><00:13:48.679><c> word</c><00:13:48.879><c> that</c><00:13:49.840><c> expresses</c><00:13:50.259><c> the</c><00:13:50.460><c> idea</c><00:13:50.659><c> of</c><00:13:50.899><c> a</c><00:13:51.039><c> frightened</c><00:13:51.320><c> horse.</c>

00:13:51.639 --> 00:13:57.860
The<00:13:52.080><c> horse</c><00:13:52.360><c> is</c><00:13:52.779><c> riding</c><00:13:53.779><c> on</c><00:13:53.940><c> the</c><00:13:54.159><c> path</c><00:13:54.600><c> and</c><00:13:56.340><c> a</c><00:13:56.600><c> snake</c><00:13:56.799><c> comes</c><00:13:57.080><c> across</c><00:13:57.419><c> the</c><00:13:57.659><c> path</c>

00:14:04.080 --> 00:14:05.340
That's<00:14:04.220><c> the</c><00:14:04.340><c> word.</c>

00:14:05.740 --> 00:14:08.279

00:14:09.620 --> 00:14:13.539
And<00:14:09.740><c> the</c><00:14:09.940><c> adversaries</c><00:14:10.879><c> were</c><00:14:11.440><c> in</c><00:14:11.580><c> the</c><00:14:11.759><c> Philippians</c><00:14:12.159><c> path.</c>

Why<00:14:20.200><c> not?</c>

00:14:23.960 --> 00:14:32.299
Because<00:14:24.200><c> their</c><00:14:24.500><c> opposition</c><00:14:25.259><c> was</c><00:14:28.080><c> an</c><00:14:29.720><c> evident</c><00:14:30.820><c> token.</c>

00:14:34.720 --> 00:14:37.080

00:14:37.200 --> 00:14:39.120
Now<00:14:37.320><c> what</c><00:14:37.399><c> was</c><00:14:37.580><c> it</c><00:14:37.679><c> a</c><00:14:37.860><c> signal</c><00:14:38.179><c> of?</c>

00:14:50.960 --> 00:14:53.559
It<00:14:50.980><c> was</c><00:14:51.220><c> a</c><00:14:51.440><c> signal,</c><00:14:51.960><c> this</c><00:14:52.100><c> very</c><00:14:52.399><c> persecution</c><00:14:53.059><c> that</c><00:14:53.240><c> they</c><00:14:53.419><c> were</c>

00:15:01.399 --> 00:15:02.860
That's<00:15:01.659><c> how</c><00:15:01.860><c> he</c><00:15:02.039><c> said</c><00:15:02.159><c> to</c><00:15:02.299><c> look</c><00:15:02.440><c> at</c><00:15:02.559><c> it.</c>
