00:08:40.899 --> 00:08:43.720
The<00:08:40.980><c> beginning</c><00:08:41.340><c> of</c><00:08:41.539><c> the</c><00:08:41.700><c> Gospel</c><00:08:42.059><c> of</c><00:08:42.299><c> Jesus</c><00:08:42.820><c> Christ</c><00:08:43.279><c> the</c><00:08:43.519><c> Son</c>

00:09:22.779 --> 00:09:27.679
The<00:09:23.080><c> beginning</c><00:09:23.340><c> of</c><00:09:23.519><c> the</c><00:09:23.700><c> Gospel</c><00:09:24.139><c> of</c><00:09:24.360><c> Jesus</c><00:09:24.759><c> Christ,</c><00:09:27.440><c> the</c><00:09:27.539><c> Son</c>

00:09:29.679 --> 00:09:32.679
In<00:09:29.960><c> fact,</c><00:09:30.220><c> the</c><00:09:30.340><c> Nestle</c><00:09:30.899><c> version</c><00:09:31.259><c> of</c><00:09:31.500><c> the</c><00:09:31.700><c> Greek</c><00:09:31.879><c> doesn't</c><00:09:32.379><c> even</c>

00:09:35.039 --> 00:09:38.399
It's<00:09:35.320><c> simply</c><00:09:35.500><c> the</c><00:09:35.700><c> beginning</c><00:09:35.899><c> of</c><00:09:36.080><c> the</c><00:09:36.240><c> Gospel</c><00:09:36.559><c> of</c><00:09:36.759><c> Jesus</c><00:09:37.120><c> Christ.</c>

00:09:49.220 --> 00:09:51.779
Because<00:09:49.500><c> you</c><00:09:49.700><c> see,</c><00:09:50.320><c> brothers</c><00:09:50.379><c> and</c><00:09:50.580><c> sisters,</c>

00:10:06.919 --> 00:10:10.860
Apart,<00:10:07.919><c> perhaps,</c><00:10:08.019><c> from</c><00:10:08.179><c> the</c><00:10:08.340><c> fact</c><00:10:08.519><c> that</c><00:10:08.679><c> he's</c><00:10:08.980><c> simply</c><00:10:09.279><c> the</c><00:10:09.480><c> Son</c><00:10:09.600><c> of</c><00:10:09.799><c> God,</c>

In<00:10:14.419><c> fact,</c><00:10:14.500><c> do</c><00:10:14.679><c> you</c><00:10:14.679><c> see</c><00:10:14.779><c> how</c><00:10:14.980><c> Mark</c><00:10:15.179><c> opens?</c>

00:10:20.879 --> 00:10:22.820

00:10:25.980 --> 00:10:29.039
And<00:10:26.440><c> interestingly</c><00:10:26.799><c> enough,</c><00:10:27.259><c> the</c><00:10:27.500><c> very</c><00:10:27.980><c> first</c><00:10:28.500><c> thing</c>

00:10:29.039 --> 00:10:32.899
that<00:10:29.820><c> Mark's</c><00:10:30.500><c> Gospel</c><00:10:30.879><c> draws</c><00:10:31.360><c> our</c><00:10:31.860><c> attention</c><00:10:32.379><c> to</c>

00:17:10.880 --> 00:17:13.000
Do<00:17:11.019><c> you</c><00:17:11.019><c> remember</c><00:17:11.140><c> when</c><00:17:11.380><c> Andrew</c><00:17:11.619><c> brought</c><00:17:11.900><c> the</c><00:17:12.140><c> Greeks?</c>

00:17:13.940 --> 00:17:17.099
The<00:17:14.460><c> Greeks,</c><00:17:14.779><c> rather,</c><00:17:15.180><c> came</c><00:17:15.319><c> to</c><00:17:15.579><c> Andrew</c><00:17:15.779><c> and</c><00:17:15.900><c> they</c><00:17:16.240><c> said,</c>

00:17:20.779 --> 00:17:22.359
Sir,<00:17:21.579><c> we</c><00:17:21.759><c> would</c><00:17:22.019><c> see</c><00:17:22.240><c> Jesus.</c>

00:17:22.359 --> 00:17:24.859
I<00:17:22.500><c> think</c><00:17:22.640><c> that's</c><00:17:23.079><c> exactly</c><00:17:23.539><c> the</c><00:17:23.720><c> way</c><00:17:23.859><c> in</c><00:17:24.000><c> which</c><00:17:24.200><c> the</c><00:17:24.480><c> woman</c>

00:17:28.619 --> 00:17:30.380
She<00:17:28.700><c> doesn't</c><00:17:28.960><c> actually</c><00:17:29.319><c> really</c><00:17:29.579><c> know</c><00:17:29.759><c> who</c><00:17:29.980><c> he</c><00:17:30.140><c> is.</c>

00:17:30.519 --> 00:17:31.839
She's<00:17:30.799><c> not</c><00:17:31.000><c> calling</c><00:17:31.299><c> him</c><00:17:31.579><c> lord.</c>

00:17:31.900 --> 00:17:35.119
