00:01:00.640 --> 00:01:04.379

00:01:07.819 --> 00:01:12.239
And<00:01:08.060><c> just</c><00:01:08.340><c> some</c><00:01:08.659><c> question</c><00:01:09.140><c> about</c><00:01:09.480><c> the</c><00:01:11.200><c> timing</c><00:01:11.680><c> of</c><00:01:11.980><c> this</c>

Gilgal<00:01:12.700><c> business.</c>

00:01:15.040 --> 00:01:18.760
I<00:01:15.379><c> mentioned</c><00:01:15.560><c> it</c><00:01:15.680><c> was</c><00:01:15.879><c> years</c><00:01:16.219><c> from</c><00:01:16.439><c> the</c><00:01:16.620><c> time</c><00:01:16.859><c> that</c><00:01:17.879><c> this</c><00:01:18.099><c> instruction</c><00:01:18.519><c> was</c>

00:01:18.760 --> 00:01:23.079
given<00:01:18.980><c> to</c><00:01:19.359><c> Saul</c><00:01:19.599><c> before</c><00:01:19.879><c> he</c><00:01:20.700><c> finally</c><00:01:20.700><c> actually</c><00:01:21.340><c> followed</c><00:01:21.579><c> through</c><00:01:21.819><c> on</c><00:01:21.959><c> it.</c>

00:01:23.280 --> 00:01:29.799
And<00:01:23.799><c> it</c><00:01:24.060><c> was</c><00:01:24.420><c> pointed</c><00:01:24.659><c> out</c><00:01:24.980><c> that</c><00:01:26.900><c> 1</c><00:01:27.060><c> Samuel</c><00:01:27.340><c> 13</c><00:01:27.859><c> begins</c><00:01:28.540><c> with</c>

00:01:29.799 --> 00:01:30.400
the<00:01:30.079><c> phrase,</c>

00:01:30.879 --> 00:01:32.859
Saul<00:01:30.879><c> reigned</c><00:01:31.200><c> a</c><00:01:31.379><c> year,</c><00:01:31.620><c> and</c><00:01:31.659><c> when</c><00:01:31.760><c> he</c><00:01:31.879><c> had</c><00:01:32.019><c> reigned</c><00:01:32.140><c> two</c><00:01:32.379><c> years</c><00:01:32.620><c> over</c>

00:01:32.859 --> 00:01:34.659
Israel,<00:01:33.819><c> those</c><00:01:34.040><c> events</c><00:01:34.319><c> occurred.</c>

00:01:34.700 --> 00:01:37.140
Well,<00:01:35.299><c> there's</c><00:01:35.500><c> a</c><00:01:35.579><c> bit</c><00:01:35.680><c> of</c><00:01:35.840><c> a</c><00:01:35.980><c> problem</c><00:01:36.260><c> with</c><00:01:36.480><c> the</c><00:01:36.640><c> chronology</c>

00:01:37.140 --> 00:01:39.060
of<00:01:37.959><c> the</c><00:01:38.280><c> Saul</c><00:01:38.599><c> years.</c>

00:01:39.099 --> 00:01:43.219
It's<00:01:39.379><c> evident</c><00:01:39.659><c> that</c><00:01:39.859><c> he</c><00:01:39.980><c> had</c><00:01:40.879><c> two</c><00:01:41.900><c> beginnings</c><00:01:42.459><c> to</c><00:01:42.719><c> his</c><00:01:42.920><c> kingdom.</c>

00:01:43.620 --> 00:01:47.219
The<00:01:43.819><c> one</c><00:01:43.939><c> when</c><00:01:44.079><c> he</c><00:01:44.219><c> was</c><00:01:44.420><c> hiding</c><00:01:44.680><c> in</c><00:01:44.879><c> the</c><00:01:45.159><c> stuff</c><00:01:45.359><c> and</c><00:01:45.500><c> was</c><00:01:45.819><c> presented</c><00:01:46.120><c> to</c><00:01:46.299><c> Israel.</c>

00:01:47.599 --> 00:01:52.340
The<00:01:48.060><c> other</c><00:01:48.379><c> one</c><00:01:48.680><c> after</c><00:01:49.040><c> the</c><00:01:49.299><c> Jabesh</c><00:01:49.700><c>-Gilead</c><00:01:50.060><c> incident,</c><00:01:51.879><c> Samuel</c><00:01:52.060><c> got</c>

00:01:52.340 --> 00:01:56.459
the<00:01:52.519><c> people</c><00:01:52.719><c> together</c><00:01:53.159><c> again,</c><00:01:54.379><c> and</c><00:01:54.719><c> again</c><00:01:55.379><c> declared</c><00:01:55.959><c> Saul</c><00:01:56.340><c> to</c>

00:01:56.459 --> 00:01:57.640
be<00:01:56.579><c> their</c><00:01:56.799><c> king.</c>

00:01:57.879 --> 00:02:03.019
So<00:01:58.040><c> there's</c><00:01:58.480><c> two</c><00:01:58.760><c> beginnings</c><00:01:59.159><c> for</c><00:01:59.459><c> dating</c><00:01:59.980><c> the</c><00:02:01.379><c> reign</c><00:02:01.680><c> of</c><00:02:02.159><c> Saul.</c>

00:02:04.879 --> 00:02:09.000
And<00:02:05.599><c> when</c><00:02:06.319><c> Samuel</c><00:02:06.700><c> did</c><00:02:06.879><c> get</c><00:02:07.060><c> the</c><00:02:07.219><c> people</c><00:02:07.640><c> together</c><00:02:08.180><c> again</c><00:02:08.659><c> to</c>

00:02:09.000 --> 00:02:12.599
renew<00:02:09.259><c> the</c><00:02:09.460><c> kingdom</c><00:02:09.840><c> with</c><00:02:10.199><c> Saul,</c><00:02:10.879><c> he</c><00:02:11.039><c> got</c><00:02:11.219><c> them</c><00:02:11.419><c> together</c><00:02:11.840><c> in</c><00:02:12.180><c> Gilgal.</c>

00:02:12.599 --> 00:02:17.360
But<00:02:13.199><c> that</c><00:02:13.599><c> was</c><00:02:13.960><c> not</c><00:02:15.060><c> fulfilling</c><00:02:15.699><c> the</c><00:02:16.039><c> situation</c><00:02:16.659><c> where</c><00:02:17.060><c> Saul</c>

00:02:17.360 --> 00:02:21.319
would<00:02:17.539><c> go</c><00:02:17.719><c> there</c><00:02:18.020><c> and</c><00:02:18.139><c> wait</c><00:02:18.759><c> seven</c><00:02:19.240><c> days</c><00:02:19.659><c> for</c><00:02:20.419><c> Samuel</c><00:02:20.840><c> to</c><00:02:21.120><c> come</c>

00:02:21.319 --> 00:02:23.000
and<00:02:21.659><c> offer</c><00:02:21.860><c> sacrifice.</c>

00:02:25.780 --> 00:02:29.800
When<00:02:26.039><c> we</c><00:02:26.439><c> take</c><00:02:26.819><c> a</c><00:02:26.939><c> look</c><00:02:27.080><c> at</c><00:02:27.560><c> God's</c><00:02:28.199><c> choice</c><00:02:28.580><c> of</c><00:02:28.939><c> David</c><00:02:29.280><c> to</c><00:02:29.560><c> be</c>

00:02:29.800 --> 00:02:35.340
king,<00:02:31.180><c> it's</c><00:02:32.099><c> perfectly</c><00:02:32.479><c> clear</c><00:02:32.979><c> that</c><00:02:33.199><c> David</c><00:02:33.419><c> was</c><00:02:33.659><c> the</c><00:02:33.860><c> right</c><00:02:34.099><c> choice.</c>

00:02:36.120 --> 00:02:37.780
God<00:02:36.439><c> got</c><00:02:36.680><c> what</c><00:02:36.840><c> he</c><00:02:37.020><c> wanted.</c>

00:02:38.379 --> 00:02:43.400
David<00:02:39.099><c> became</c><00:02:39.539><c> a</c><00:02:40.039><c> standard</c><00:02:40.539><c> to</c><00:02:40.819><c> which</c><00:02:41.060><c> other</c><00:02:41.360><c> kings</c><00:02:41.659><c> were</c><00:02:42.379><c> compared.</c>

00:02:43.580 --> 00:02:46.020
And<00:02:43.580><c> you've</c><00:02:44.099><c> probably</c><00:02:44.479><c> noticed</c><00:02:44.840><c> that</c><00:02:44.979><c> we'll</c><00:02:45.139><c> just</c><00:02:45.400><c> take</c><00:02:45.699><c> a</c><00:02:45.780><c> look</c><00:02:45.879><c> at</c>

00:02:46.020 --> 00:02:47.180
a<00:02:46.139><c> couple</c><00:02:46.319><c> of</c><00:02:46.500><c> these.</c>

00:02:47.280 --> 00:02:55.379
But<00:02:47.419><c> like</c><00:02:47.639><c> in</c><00:02:47.759><c> 1</c><00:02:47.919><c> Kings</c><00:02:48.199><c> 15,</c><00:02:49.639><c> you</c><00:02:50.000><c> have</c><00:02:50.259><c> this</c><00:02:51.500><c> steady</c><00:02:52.080><c> drum</c><00:02:53.240><c> beat</c><00:02:53.460><c> running</c><00:02:53.759><c> through</c><00:02:54.139><c> the</c>

kings<00:02:55.860><c> of</c><00:02:57.300><c> the</c><00:02:57.460><c> king</c><00:02:57.979><c> of</c><00:02:58.819><c> Judah,</c><00:02:59.000><c> particularly,</c><00:03:00.340><c> being</c><00:03:00.659><c> compared</c><00:03:01.199><c> to</c><00:03:01.939><c> David.</c>

00:03:05.580 --> 00:03:08.719
Here's<00:03:06.099><c> an</c><00:03:06.259><c> example</c><00:03:06.719><c> in</c><00:03:06.960><c> connection</c><00:03:07.319><c> with</c><00:03:07.560><c> Abijahim.</c>

00:03:08.879 --> 00:03:11.139

So<00:33:04.660><c> this</c><00:33:05.200><c> is</c><00:33:05.420><c> something</c><00:33:05.759><c> that</c><00:33:06.619><c> had</c><00:33:07.000><c> come</c><00:33:07.259><c> in</c><00:33:07.460><c> cooperation</c><00:33:08.220><c> with</c><00:33:08.960><c> Samuel</c><00:33:09.740><c> the</c><00:33:10.099><c> seer.</c>

00:33:14.559 --> 00:33:17.099
Did<00:33:14.819><c> that</c><00:33:15.220><c> passage</c><00:33:15.619><c> catch</c><00:33:15.940><c> you</c><00:33:16.119><c> at</c><00:33:16.240><c> all?</c>

00:33:18.720 --> 00:33:20.559
You<00:33:18.859><c> know</c><00:33:18.940><c> when</c><00:33:19.119><c> Samuel</c><00:33:19.440><c> died?</c>

00:33:21.220 --> 00:33:22.859
Before<00:33:21.779><c> Saul</c><00:33:22.079><c> did.</c>

00:33:23.160 --> 00:33:27.000
Yeah,<00:33:23.759><c> he</c><00:33:23.859><c> died</c><00:33:24.319><c> while</c><00:33:25.079><c> David</c><00:33:25.440><c> was</c><00:33:25.700><c> on</c><00:33:25.900><c> the</c><00:33:26.140><c> run.</c>

00:33:29.740 --> 00:33:34.019
Now<00:33:30.019><c> Samuel,</c><00:33:30.539><c> when</c><00:33:30.779><c> he</c><00:33:30.960><c> anointed</c><00:33:31.339><c> David</c><00:33:31.920><c> in</c><00:33:32.559><c> chapter</c><00:33:32.880><c> 16,</c><00:33:33.940><c> he</c>

00:33:34.019 --> 00:33:35.660
didn't<00:33:34.180><c> know</c><00:33:34.279><c> David,</c><00:33:34.559><c> did</c><00:33:34.660><c> he?</c>

00:33:36.880 --> 00:33:41.279
So<00:33:37.119><c> once</c><00:33:37.579><c> David</c><00:33:37.960><c> went</c><00:33:38.180><c> on</c><00:33:38.440><c> the</c><00:33:38.740><c> run,</c><00:33:40.599><c> there</c><00:33:40.700><c> was</c><00:33:40.859><c> very</c><00:33:41.099><c> little</c>

00:33:41.279 --> 00:33:42.920
opportunity<00:33:41.740><c> for</c><00:33:41.960><c> him</c><00:33:42.000><c> to</c><00:33:42.200><c> contact</c><00:33:42.599><c> Samuel.</c>

00:33:42.940 --> 00:33:45.319
In<00:33:43.059><c> fact,</c><00:33:43.220><c> he</c><00:33:43.339><c> wanted</c><00:33:43.559><c> to</c><00:33:43.779><c> but</c><00:33:44.160><c> really</c><00:33:44.740><c> couldn't.</c>

00:33:45.319 --> 00:33:52.019
That<00:33:46.039><c> means</c><00:33:46.380><c> in</c><00:33:46.599><c> that</c><00:33:46.779><c> period</c><00:33:47.099><c> of</c><00:33:47.460><c> time,</c><00:33:49.059><c> from</c><00:33:49.099><c> Samuel's</c><00:33:50.680><c> anointing</c><00:33:51.079><c> of</c><00:33:51.240><c> David,</c>

00:33:52.420 --> 00:33:55.819
to<00:33:52.839><c> when</c><00:33:53.079><c> David</c><00:33:53.380><c> started</c><00:33:53.819><c> to</c><00:33:54.460><c> flee</c><00:33:55.000><c> from</c><00:33:55.460><c> Saul,</c>

00:33:56.220 --> 00:34:03.579
in<00:33:56.279><c> that</c><00:33:56.480><c> period</c><00:33:56.779><c> of</c><00:33:57.019><c> time</c><00:33:57.420><c> there</c><00:33:57.700><c> had</c><00:33:57.799><c> been</c><00:33:57.900><c> a</c><00:33:58.039><c> revelation</c><00:33:58.660><c> about</c><00:34:00.400><c> this</c><00:34:00.740><c> whole</c><00:34:01.480><c> reorganization</c><00:34:02.359><c> of</c><00:34:02.559><c> worship</c>

00:34:04.359 --> 00:34:07.140
that<00:34:04.920><c> had</c><00:34:05.160><c> come</c><00:34:05.420><c> through</c><00:34:05.700><c> Samuel</c><00:34:06.119><c> to</c><00:34:06.380><c> David.</c>

00:34:07.539 --> 00:34:09.360
Now<00:34:07.759><c> he</c><00:34:07.839><c> knew</c><00:34:08.099><c> this.</c>

00:34:09.880 --> 00:34:12.239
And<00:34:10.019><c> here</c><00:34:10.139><c> he</c><00:34:10.199><c> is</c><00:34:10.320><c> on</c><00:34:10.480><c> the</c><00:34:10.619><c> run</c><00:34:10.780><c> and</c><00:34:10.960><c> sometimes</c><00:34:11.440><c> he</c><00:34:11.579><c> almost</c><00:34:11.820><c> gave</c><00:34:12.019><c> up</c>

00:34:12.239 --> 00:34:13.159
that<00:34:12.340><c> he</c><00:34:12.440><c> had</c><00:34:12.500><c> ever</c><00:34:12.719><c> became.</c>

00:34:13.159 --> 00:34:19.400
So<00:34:14.019><c> this</c><00:34:15.400><c> whole</c><00:34:15.960><c> organization</c><00:34:16.719><c> of</c><00:34:18.260><c> Israel's</c><00:34:18.840><c> worship</c><00:34:19.099><c> under</c>

00:34:19.400 --> 00:34:20.800
the<00:34:19.519><c> hand</c><00:34:19.760><c> of</c><00:34:20.039><c> David,</c>

00:34:21.420 --> 00:34:23.800
it<00:34:21.780><c> was</c><00:34:22.599><c> of</c><00:34:22.840><c> God.</c>

00:34:24.039 --> 00:34:25.280
David<00:34:24.380><c> carried</c><00:34:24.760><c> it</c><00:34:25.019><c> out.</c>

00:34:25.440 --> 00:34:26.440
That's<00:34:25.639><c> what</c><00:34:25.800><c> God</c><00:34:26.059><c> wanted.</c>

00:34:26.719 --> 00:34:29.960
He<00:34:26.860><c> wanted</c><00:34:27.139><c> a</c><00:34:27.460><c> servant</c><00:34:28.019><c> to</c><00:34:28.920><c> be</c><00:34:29.199><c> king.</c>

00:34:30.260 --> 00:34:33.619
Somebody<00:34:30.599><c> would</c><00:34:30.900><c> do</c><00:34:31.159><c> what</c><00:34:31.320><c> he</c><00:34:31.619><c> wanted</c><00:34:31.880><c> done</c><00:34:32.260><c> with</c><00:34:32.500><c> his</c><00:34:32.760><c> people.</c>

00:34:34.219 --> 00:34:37.619
Now<00:34:34.599><c> mind</c><00:34:34.860><c> you,</c><00:34:35.679><c> David</c><00:34:35.980><c> was</c><00:34:36.199><c> a</c><00:34:36.380><c> special</c><00:34:36.579><c> case.</c>

00:34:38.659 --> 00:34:40.659
He<00:34:39.260><c> had</c><00:34:39.480><c> special</c><00:34:39.920><c> skills.</c>

00:34:40.659 --> 00:34:42.320
We<00:34:41.420><c> don't</c><00:34:41.639><c> all</c><00:34:41.920><c> have.</c>

00:34:42.500 --> 00:34:44.980
We're<00:34:42.780><c> not</c><00:34:42.940><c> all</c><00:34:43.280><c> selected</c><00:34:43.699><c> as</c><00:34:44.000><c> obviously</c><00:34:44.360><c> as</c><00:34:44.559><c> he</c><00:34:44.739><c> was.</c>

00:34:45.380 --> 00:34:47.980
We<00:34:45.480><c> don't</c><00:34:45.639><c> all</c><00:34:45.780><c> have</c><00:34:45.960><c> the</c><00:34:46.300><c> skills</c><00:34:46.639><c> like</c><00:34:46.920><c> he</c><00:34:47.159><c> did.</c>

00:34:49.219 --> 00:34:53.119
But<00:34:49.360><c> you</c><00:34:49.539><c> know,</c><00:34:50.860><c> we</c><00:34:51.059><c> have</c><00:34:51.280><c> skills</c><00:34:51.539><c> David</c><00:34:51.820><c> didn't</c><00:34:52.059><c> have.</c>

00:34:53.500 --> 00:34:55.260
Whatever<00:34:53.760><c> they</c><00:34:53.920><c> might</c><00:34:54.179><c> be.</c>

00:34:56.079 --> 00:35:00.280
And<00:34:56.340><c> what</c><00:34:56.559><c> we</c><00:34:56.760><c> need</c><00:34:56.940><c> to</c><00:34:57.219><c> do</c><00:34:57.559><c> is</c><00:34:58.000><c> to</c><00:34:58.219><c> take</c><00:34:58.380><c> the</c><00:34:58.699><c> talents</c><00:34:59.059><c> that</c><00:34:59.280><c> God</c><00:34:59.500><c> has</c><00:34:59.699><c> given</c><00:34:59.860><c> us</c>

00:35:00.280 --> 00:35:04.659
and<00:35:00.960><c> use</c><00:35:01.320><c> them</c><00:35:01.539><c> in</c><00:35:01.699><c> his</c><00:35:02.099><c> service</c><00:35:02.619><c> to</c><00:35:03.219><c> the</c><00:35:03.639><c> benefit</c><00:35:04.059><c> of</c><00:35:04.420><c> those</c>

00:35:04.659 --> 00:35:05.400
around<00:35:05.059><c> us.</c>

00:35:05.659 --> 00:35:07.480
That's<00:35:05.920><c> what</c><00:35:06.059><c> David</c><00:35:06.360><c> was</c><00:35:06.619><c> doing.</c>

00:35:07.619 --> 00:35:09.300
He<00:35:07.679><c> wasn't</c><00:35:07.860><c> just</c><00:35:08.119><c> doing</c><00:35:08.360><c> this</c><00:35:08.539><c> for</c><00:35:08.719><c> himself.</c>

00:35:09.300 --> 00:35:13.079
He<00:35:10.099><c> was</c><00:35:10.320><c> doing</c><00:35:10.519><c> it</c><00:35:10.699><c> for</c><00:35:10.880><c> the</c><00:35:11.079><c> benefit</c><00:35:11.460><c> of</c><00:35:11.719><c> all</c><00:35:12.119><c> those</c><00:35:12.480><c> people</c>

00:35:13.079 --> 00:35:15.900
under<00:35:13.619><c> his</c><00:35:14.340><c> sphere</c><00:35:14.639><c> of</c><00:35:14.940><c> influence.</c>

00:35:17.400 --> 00:35:21.119
You<00:35:17.420><c> know,</c><00:35:17.579><c> one</c><00:35:17.719><c> of</c><00:35:17.860><c> the</c><00:35:18.019><c> things</c><00:35:18.219><c> that</c><00:35:18.500><c> is</c><00:35:19.920><c> certainly</c><00:35:20.260><c> true</c><00:35:20.840><c> in</c>

00:35:21.119 --> 00:35:22.820
the<00:35:21.320><c> service</c><00:35:21.539><c> of</c><00:35:21.739><c> God,</c>

00:35:24.159 --> 00:35:26.400
idleness<00:35:24.800><c> is</c><00:35:25.440><c> fatal.</c>

00:35:28.260 --> 00:35:31.340
We<00:35:28.420><c> need</c><00:35:28.659><c> to</c><00:35:28.960><c> take</c><00:35:29.179><c> the</c><00:35:29.579><c> talents</c><00:35:29.920><c> we've</c><00:35:30.440><c> got</c>

00:35:32.000 --> 00:35:35.920
and<00:35:32.639><c> use</c><00:35:33.039><c> them</c><00:35:33.780><c> for</c><00:35:34.139><c> the</c><00:35:34.440><c> benefit</c><00:35:34.699><c> of</c><00:35:34.820><c> those</c><00:35:35.059><c> around</c><00:35:35.460><c> us</c><00:35:35.739><c> and</c>

00:35:35.920 --> 00:35:38.280
the<00:35:36.219><c> servant</c><00:35:36.579><c> of</c><00:35:37.840><c> God.</c>

00:35:38.280 --> 00:35:41.380
And<00:35:38.900><c> that's</c><00:35:39.380><c> the</c><00:35:39.639><c> precedent</c><00:35:39.980><c> that</c><00:35:40.239><c> David</c><00:35:40.460><c> sets</c><00:35:40.719><c> us.</c>

00:35:41.739 --> 00:35:44.019
It's<00:35:42.260><c> no</c><00:35:42.480><c> wonder</c><00:35:42.699><c> God</c><00:35:42.980><c> loved</c><00:35:43.260><c> him.</c>

00:35:44.239 --> 00:35:47.340
Because<00:35:44.579><c> he</c><00:35:44.719><c> was</c><00:35:44.960><c> doing</c><00:35:45.199><c> just</c><00:35:45.639><c> what</c><00:35:45.880><c> God</c><00:35:46.199><c> wanted</c><00:35:46.460><c> to</c><00:35:46.679><c> do</c><00:35:46.800><c> as</c><00:35:47.019><c> far</c><00:35:47.219><c> as</c>

00:35:47.340 --> 00:35:48.900
the<00:35:47.480><c> kingdom</c><00:35:47.699><c> was</c><00:35:47.960><c> concerned.</c>

00:35:51.239 --> 00:35:53.639
And<00:35:51.380><c> there's</c><00:35:51.500><c> something</c><00:35:51.739><c> else</c><00:35:52.039><c> we</c><00:35:52.400><c> need</c><00:35:52.599><c> to</c><00:35:52.860><c> note.</c>

00:35:54.300 --> 00:35:57.920
And<00:35:54.480><c> that</c><00:35:54.559><c> is</c><00:35:54.820><c> the</c><00:35:54.920><c> way</c><00:35:55.139><c> David</c><00:35:55.579><c> administered</c><00:35:56.460><c> the</c><00:35:57.059><c> kingdom.</c>

00:35:59.260 --> 00:36:03.260

00:38:50.119 --> 00:38:52.599
That's<00:38:50.260><c> what</c><00:38:50.360><c> he</c><00:38:50.460><c> was</c><00:38:50.639><c> supposed</c><00:38:50.900><c> to</c><00:38:51.059><c> do</c><00:38:51.380><c> in</c><00:38:51.619><c> Israel.</c>

00:40:03.739 --> 00:40:06.280
He<00:40:04.179><c> was</c><00:40:04.440><c> promoting</c><00:40:04.820><c> young</c><00:40:05.059><c> men</c><00:40:05.260><c> of</c><00:40:05.460><c> promise.</c>

00:40:06.300 --> 00:40:08.440
So<00:40:06.380><c> when</c><00:40:06.519><c> you</c><00:40:06.739><c> look</c><00:40:06.920><c> at</c><00:40:07.059><c> these,</c><00:40:07.320><c> you</c><00:40:07.320><c> can</c><00:40:07.539><c> begin</c><00:40:07.699><c> to</c><00:40:07.880><c> figure</c><00:40:08.000><c> it</c><00:40:08.139><c> out.</c>

00:40:08.699 --> 00:40:11.139
This<00:40:08.940><c> is</c><00:40:09.059><c> what</c><00:40:09.300><c> Solomon</c><00:40:09.719><c> took</c><00:40:09.960><c> a</c><00:40:10.059><c> look</c><00:40:10.219><c> at</c><00:40:10.400><c> and</c><00:40:10.579><c> said,</c><00:40:10.699><c> I'm</c><00:40:10.900><c> going</c><00:40:11.000><c> to</c>

00:40:15.840 --> 00:40:17.119
And<00:40:16.000><c> David</c><00:40:16.199><c> did</c><00:40:16.380><c> something</c><00:40:16.679><c> else.</c>

00:40:17.320 --> 00:40:19.900
If<00:40:17.440><c> you</c><00:40:17.480><c> go</c><00:40:17.659><c> back</c><00:40:17.860><c> to</c><00:40:18.039><c> Psalm</c><00:40:18.280><c> 78.</c>

00:40:22.780 --> 00:40:24.760
There's<00:40:23.539><c> another</c><00:40:23.760><c> little</c><00:40:24.000><c> word</c><00:40:24.300><c> there.</c>

00:40:24.980 --> 00:40:26.480
He<00:40:25.260><c> fed</c><00:40:25.599><c> them.</c>

00:40:27.539 --> 00:40:36.599
Now<00:40:27.980><c> if</c><00:40:28.719><c> we</c><00:40:30.219><c> were</c><00:40:30.460><c> reading</c><00:40:30.780><c> this</c><00:40:32.019><c> whole</c><00:40:32.559><c> Psalm</c><00:40:33.099><c> in</c><00:40:34.500><c> the</c><00:40:34.840><c> Hebrew,</c><00:40:35.320><c> we</c><00:40:35.539><c> would</c><00:40:36.079><c> see</c>

00:40:38.900 --> 00:40:43.980
But<00:40:39.199><c> that's</c><00:40:39.840><c> the</c><00:40:40.000><c> word</c><00:40:40.280><c> that's</c><00:40:40.760><c> used</c><00:40:41.659><c> back</c><00:40:42.400><c> up</c><00:40:42.619><c> in</c><00:40:42.780><c> verse</c><00:40:43.059><c> 14</c>

00:41:01.340 --> 00:41:06.159
This<00:41:01.559><c> is</c><00:41:01.820><c> a</c><00:41:02.099><c> particular</c><00:41:02.960><c> word</c><00:41:03.440><c> that</c><00:41:03.639><c> is</c><00:41:03.760><c> being</c><00:41:04.079><c> used</c><00:41:04.659><c> of</c><00:41:05.320><c> God</c>

00:41:10.119 --> 00:41:12.940
It's<00:41:10.360><c> the</c><00:41:10.360><c> same</c><00:41:10.539><c> word</c><00:41:10.719><c> that's</c><00:41:10.960><c> used</c><00:41:11.139><c> in</c><00:41:11.340><c> Psalm</c><00:41:11.539><c> 23.</c>

00:41:18.760 --> 00:41:20.719
That's<00:41:19.059><c> all</c><00:41:19.260><c> the</c><00:41:19.480><c> same</c><00:41:19.760><c> word.</c>

And<00:42:00.280><c> therefore</c><00:42:00.780><c> Saul</c><00:42:01.579><c> removed</c><00:42:02.440><c> David</c><00:42:02.940><c> from</c><00:42:03.239><c> him</c><00:42:03.420><c> and</c><00:42:03.539><c> made</c><00:42:03.739><c> him</c><00:42:03.900><c> his</c><00:42:04.099><c> captain</c><00:42:04.320><c> over</c><00:42:04.599><c> a</c><00:42:04.739><c> thousand.</c>

00:42:05.119 --> 00:42:08.960

00:42:20.219 --> 00:42:25.500

00:42:43.239 --> 00:42:48.579
That<00:42:43.619><c> also</c><00:42:43.619><c> in</c><00:42:44.019><c> time</c><00:42:44.480><c> past</c><00:42:44.900><c> when</c><00:42:45.219><c> Saul</c><00:42:45.500><c> was</c><00:42:45.679><c> king</c><00:42:45.880><c> over</c><00:42:46.139><c> us,</c><00:42:47.079><c> thou</c><00:42:47.380><c> was</c><00:42:47.639><c> he</c>

00:42:48.579 --> 00:42:53.300
that<00:42:49.420><c> led</c><00:42:49.639><c> us</c><00:42:49.840><c> out</c><00:42:50.420><c> and</c><00:42:51.539><c> brought</c><00:42:51.820><c> us</c><00:42:51.960><c> in</c><00:42:52.119><c> Israel.</c>

00:42:54.059 --> 00:42:59.039
And<00:42:54.119><c> the</c><00:42:54.260><c> Lord</c><00:42:54.500><c> said</c><00:42:54.760><c> to</c><00:42:55.000><c> thee,</c><00:42:56.360><c> thou</c><00:42:56.639><c> shalt</c><00:42:57.039><c> feed</c><00:42:58.159><c> by</c><00:42:58.699><c> people</c>

00:43:06.119 --> 00:43:07.960
That's<00:43:06.760><c> what</c><00:43:06.880><c> God</c><00:43:07.119><c> wanted.</c>

00:43:08.699 --> 00:43:10.079
That's<00:43:08.900><c> what</c><00:43:09.019><c> he</c><00:43:09.199><c> did.</c>

00:43:10.280 --> 00:43:14.900
