00:07:40.819 --> 00:07:44.279
We<00:07:40.939><c> can</c><00:07:41.160><c> see</c><00:07:41.279><c> from</c><00:07:41.459><c> the</c><00:07:41.680><c> map</c><00:07:41.879><c> that</c><00:07:42.579><c> Sampson's</c><00:07:43.240><c> exploits</c><00:07:43.879><c> cover</c>

00:07:47.199 --> 00:07:52.379
This<00:07:47.420><c> is</c><00:07:47.680><c> the</c><00:07:47.740><c> area</c><00:07:48.160><c> of</c><00:07:49.240><c> Eshtol</c><00:07:49.720><c> and</c><00:07:49.980><c> Zora,</c><00:07:50.860><c> goes</c><00:07:51.300><c> through</c><00:07:51.560><c> to</c><00:07:51.800><c> Tinnath.</c>

00:07:52.379 --> 00:07:56.180
He<00:07:53.000><c> actually</c><00:07:53.319><c> went</c><00:07:53.560><c> down</c><00:07:53.899><c> to</c><00:07:54.120><c> Ashkelon.</c>

00:08:00.660 --> 00:08:05.939
And<00:08:00.939><c> he</c><00:08:01.300><c> finishes</c><00:08:01.620><c> up</c><00:08:02.000><c> at</c><00:08:02.459><c> one</c><00:08:02.740><c> point</c><00:08:03.100><c> that</c><00:08:03.439><c> we'll</c><00:08:03.680><c> be</c><00:08:03.920><c> commenting</c><00:08:04.279><c> on</c><00:08:04.500><c> today,</c><00:08:05.060><c> in</c>

00:08:11.699 --> 00:08:15.800
So<00:08:11.939><c> there</c><00:08:12.279><c> was</c><00:08:12.560><c> a</c><00:08:13.040><c> wide</c><00:08:13.300><c> range</c><00:08:13.720><c> of</c><00:08:14.060><c> area</c><00:08:14.459><c> which</c><00:08:14.660><c> he</c><00:08:14.939><c> covered.</c>

00:09:03.340 --> 00:09:05.940

And<00:16:14.059><c> in</c><00:16:14.320><c> Isaiah's</c><00:16:14.879><c> day,</c><00:16:16.039><c> nothing</c><00:16:16.179><c> had</c><00:16:16.820><c> changed.</c>

00:16:18.379 --> 00:16:20.799
Nothing<00:16:18.860><c> had</c><00:16:19.600><c> changed.</c>

00:16:24.159 --> 00:16:26.600
They<00:16:24.399><c> had</c><00:16:24.639><c> produced</c><00:16:25.159><c> wild</c><00:16:25.580><c> grapes</c>

00:16:26.659 --> 00:16:31.860
with<00:16:27.299><c> the</c><00:16:27.620><c> result</c><00:16:28.039><c> that</c><00:16:28.460><c> briars</c><00:16:29.000><c> and</c><00:16:29.480><c> thorns</c><00:16:30.039><c> were</c><00:16:30.700><c> in</c><00:16:30.899><c> evidence.</c>

00:16:34.100 --> 00:16:36.879
And<00:16:34.220><c> so</c><00:16:34.460><c> Samson</c><00:16:34.860><c> goes</c><00:16:35.220><c> down</c><00:16:35.539><c> to</c><00:16:35.820><c> Timnath,</c>

00:16:37.259 --> 00:16:41.940

00:16:44.220 --> 00:16:49.600
He<00:16:44.279><c> wants</c><00:16:44.620><c> to</c><00:16:44.960><c> search</c><00:16:45.279><c> out</c><00:16:46.019><c> the</c><00:16:46.340><c> wife</c><00:16:47.100><c> that</c><00:16:48.799><c> he</c><00:16:49.080><c> lost</c>

00:16:49.600 --> 00:16:53.139
when<00:16:50.960><c> his</c><00:16:51.220><c> marriage</c><00:16:51.600><c> was</c><00:16:51.960><c> interrupted</c>

00:17:03.340 --> 00:17:06.660
And<00:17:03.940><c> it's</c><00:17:04.299><c> God</c><00:17:04.579><c> that</c><00:17:04.900><c> intervenes</c><00:17:05.359><c> again.</c>

00:17:07.200 --> 00:17:10.420
When<00:17:07.500><c> Samson</c><00:17:08.039><c> tries</c><00:17:08.440><c> to</c><00:17:08.700><c> pursue</c><00:17:08.960><c> his</c><00:17:09.240><c> own</c><00:17:09.480><c> ways,</c>

00:17:10.779 --> 00:17:13.619
God<00:17:10.819><c> has</c><00:17:11.099><c> intervened,</c><00:17:11.839><c> Providence</c><00:17:12.240><c> has</c><00:17:12.539><c> taken</c><00:17:12.819><c> charge,</c>

00:17:14.680 --> 00:17:17.720

00:17:18.740 --> 00:17:22.980
And<00:17:18.940><c> the</c><00:17:19.140><c> father</c><00:17:19.420><c> says,</c><00:17:20.900><c> well,</c><00:17:21.500><c> why</c><00:17:21.720><c> don't</c><00:17:21.859><c> you</c><00:17:22.039><c> have</c><00:17:22.200><c> a</c><00:17:22.480><c> sister?</c>

She<00:17:23.720><c> is</c><00:17:24.240><c> fairer</c><00:17:24.700><c> than</c><00:17:24.940><c> she.</c>

00:17:26.740 --> 00:17:32.940
And<00:17:27.299><c> that's</c><00:17:27.559><c> an</c><00:17:27.779><c> example</c><00:17:28.240><c> of</c><00:17:28.400><c> just</c><00:17:28.680><c> how</c><00:17:28.980><c> the</c><00:17:29.119><c> world</c><00:17:30.259><c> values</c><00:17:31.839><c> beauty.</c>

00:17:34.319 --> 00:17:37.799
No<00:17:34.460><c> consideration</c><00:17:35.299><c> for</c><00:17:35.579><c> the</c><00:17:35.779><c> inner</c><00:17:35.980><c> man</c><00:17:36.299><c> of</c><00:17:36.619><c> the</c><00:17:36.819><c> heart.</c>

00:17:39.119 --> 00:17:41.579
She<00:17:39.279><c> was</c><00:17:39.480><c> a</c><00:17:39.599><c> pretty</c><00:17:39.880><c> good</c><00:17:40.140><c>-looking</c><00:17:40.400><c> girl,</c>

00:17:42.180 --> 00:17:48.099

00:17:49.039 --> 00:17:50.380
The<00:17:49.200><c> Apostle</c><00:17:49.640><c> Peter</c><00:17:49.920><c> says,</c>

00:17:50.380 --> 00:17:54.460
Let<00:17:51.019><c> it</c><00:17:51.279><c> not</c><00:17:51.539><c> be</c><00:17:51.819><c> the</c><00:17:52.059><c> outward</c><00:17:52.460><c> adorning</c><00:17:53.000><c> of</c><00:17:53.240><c> plaiting</c><00:17:53.680><c> the</c><00:17:53.880><c> hair,</c>

00:18:01.059 --> 00:18:03.839
Interesting<00:18:01.660><c> that</c><00:18:01.880><c> it</c><00:18:02.000><c> says,</c><00:18:02.779><c> talking</c><00:18:03.220><c> to</c><00:18:03.440><c> the</c><00:18:03.660><c> wife,</c>

00:18:07.200 --> 00:18:10.140
You<00:18:07.400><c> see,</c><00:18:07.680><c> that</c><00:18:07.839><c> hidden</c><00:18:08.200><c> man</c><00:18:09.000><c> of</c><00:18:09.359><c> the</c><00:18:09.619><c> heart</c>

00:18:13.779 --> 00:18:15.259
our<00:18:14.140><c> activities</c>

00:18:15.359 --> 00:18:17.700
and<00:18:15.960><c> the</c><00:18:16.079><c> way</c><00:18:16.259><c> we</c><00:18:16.519><c> act</c><00:18:16.859><c> and</c><00:18:17.200><c> think.</c>

00:18:17.700 --> 00:18:21.660
The<00:18:18.660><c> hidden</c><00:18:19.000><c> man</c><00:18:19.619><c> of</c><00:18:20.180><c> the</c><00:18:20.440><c> heart.</c>

00:18:21.740 --> 00:18:25.559
And<00:18:21.740><c> so</c><00:18:21.980><c> Sarah,</c><00:18:23.599><c> she</c><00:18:23.940><c> had</c><00:18:24.160><c> that</c><00:18:24.559><c> hidden</c><00:18:24.960><c> man</c>

00:18:33.420 --> 00:18:36.160
But<00:18:33.539><c> the</c><00:18:33.779><c> world</c><00:18:33.980><c> looks</c><00:18:34.259><c> at</c><00:18:34.400><c> it</c><00:18:34.519><c> very</c><00:18:35.099><c> different.</c>

00:18:37.759 --> 00:18:41.220
And<00:18:37.960><c> if</c><00:18:38.539><c> Samson</c><00:18:38.980><c> was</c><00:18:39.380><c> mad</c><00:18:39.640><c> before</c><00:18:40.079><c> this</c><00:18:40.380><c> event,</c>

00:18:55.259 --> 00:18:57.779
And<00:18:55.420><c> we</c><00:18:55.599><c> see</c><00:18:55.779><c> what</c><00:18:55.980><c> happens,</c><00:18:56.460><c> verse</c><00:18:56.720><c> 4.</c>

00:18:58.180 --> 00:19:01.119
He<00:18:58.299><c> went</c><00:18:58.619><c> out,</c><00:18:59.700><c> caught</c><00:18:59.859><c> three</c><00:19:00.220><c> hundred</c><00:19:00.539><c> foxes,</c>

00:19:01.160 --> 00:19:03.839

00:19:08.359 --> 00:19:10.839
It's<00:19:08.619><c> almost</c><00:19:08.859><c> like</c><00:19:09.140><c> a</c><00:19:09.299><c> child's</c><00:19:09.880><c> prank,</c><00:19:10.200><c> isn't</c><00:19:10.380><c> it?</c>

00:19:10.839 --> 00:19:13.640
I<00:19:11.640><c> remember</c><00:19:12.079><c> when</c><00:19:12.259><c> I</c><00:19:12.420><c> was</c><00:19:12.640><c> a</c><00:19:12.779><c> boy.</c>

00:19:19.099 --> 00:19:21.799

00:19:28.859 --> 00:19:30.460
It<00:19:28.980><c> was</c><00:19:29.160><c> a</c><00:19:29.299><c> boy's</c><00:19:29.680><c> prank,</c><00:19:29.940><c> wasn't</c><00:19:30.160><c> it?</c>

00:19:30.720 --> 00:19:32.920
And<00:19:30.920><c> then</c><00:19:31.240><c> when</c><00:19:31.559><c> we</c><00:19:31.759><c> figured</c><00:19:31.900><c> it</c><00:19:32.000><c> was</c><00:19:32.180><c> ready</c><00:19:32.359><c> to</c><00:19:32.539><c> go</c><00:19:32.740><c> off,</c>

00:19:33.059 --> 00:19:35.660
we'd<00:19:33.559><c> pull</c><00:19:33.759><c> the</c><00:19:34.059><c> string</c><00:19:34.220><c> and</c><00:19:34.440><c> knock</c><00:19:34.579><c> the</c><00:19:34.779><c> door.</c>

00:19:36.180 --> 00:19:38.519
The<00:19:36.420><c> poor</c><00:19:36.579><c> old</c><00:19:36.779><c> lady</c><00:19:37.059><c> would</c><00:19:37.220><c> get</c><00:19:37.460><c> there</c><00:19:37.779><c> and</c><00:19:38.079><c> be</c><00:19:38.319><c> frightened</c>

00:19:38.519 --> 00:19:38.940
to<00:19:38.740><c> death.</c>

00:19:38.940 --> 00:19:40.900
We<00:19:39.299><c> didn't</c><00:19:39.640><c> appreciate</c><00:19:40.220><c> what</c><00:19:40.400><c> was</c><00:19:40.619><c> happening.</c>

00:19:41.180 --> 00:19:44.680
And<00:19:41.200><c> it's</c><00:19:41.400><c> almost</c><00:19:41.680><c> like</c><00:19:42.140><c> that,</c><00:19:42.380><c> that</c><00:19:42.619><c> Samson</c><00:19:43.299><c> is</c><00:19:44.400><c> playing</c>

00:19:44.680 --> 00:19:45.259
this<00:19:45.079><c> prank,</c>

00:19:45.279 --> 00:19:47.700
but<00:19:45.400><c> it's</c><00:19:45.579><c> more</c><00:19:45.819><c> than</c><00:19:46.039><c> a</c><00:19:46.160><c> prank,</c><00:19:46.500><c> brethren</c><00:19:46.660><c> and</c><00:19:46.759><c> sisters.</c>

00:19:48.400 --> 00:19:51.980
There's<00:19:48.519><c> a</c><00:19:48.660><c> very</c><00:19:48.940><c> powerful</c><00:19:49.359><c> lesson</c><00:19:49.940><c> emerges</c><00:19:50.799><c> from</c><00:19:51.539><c> this</c>

00:19:51.980 --> 00:19:53.119
particular<00:19:52.599><c> event.</c>

00:19:53.359 --> 00:19:55.200
Now,<00:19:53.500><c> look</c><00:19:53.640><c> at</c><00:19:53.799><c> the</c><00:19:53.940><c> situation.</c>

00:19:55.299 --> 00:19:59.940
Judges<00:19:55.720><c> 15,</c><00:19:56.279><c> verse</c><00:19:56.480><c> 5,</c><00:19:57.400><c> says</c><00:19:57.519><c> they</c><00:19:57.680><c> were</c><00:19:58.000><c> standing</c><00:19:58.759><c> corn.</c>

00:20:00.259 --> 00:20:03.579
Now,<00:20:00.740><c> what</c><00:20:00.920><c> he's</c><00:20:01.160><c> referring</c><00:20:01.599><c> to,</c><00:20:02.519><c> they'd</c><00:20:02.720><c> already</c><00:20:03.079><c> cut</c><00:20:03.299><c> the</c>

00:20:03.579 --> 00:20:04.240
sheaves<00:20:03.839><c> down</c>

00:20:04.240 --> 00:20:06.940
and<00:20:04.380><c> they</c><00:20:04.559><c> had</c><00:20:04.680><c> them</c><00:20:04.960><c> all</c><00:20:05.480><c> ready</c><00:20:05.759><c> in</c><00:20:06.059><c> the</c><00:20:06.380><c> fields.</c>

00:20:06.940 --> 00:20:09.660
You<00:20:07.480><c> don't</c><00:20:07.779><c> see</c><00:20:08.059><c> that</c><00:20:08.339><c> too</c><00:20:08.579><c> often</c><00:20:08.880><c> today,</c>

00:20:09.680 --> 00:20:12.640
but<00:20:09.740><c> as</c><00:20:10.000><c> a</c><00:20:10.180><c> boy</c><00:20:10.420><c> growing</c><00:20:10.759><c> up</c><00:20:11.299><c> with</c><00:20:11.599><c> the</c><00:20:11.859><c> farm</c><00:20:12.059><c> behind,</c>

00:20:12.920 --> 00:20:17.440
I<00:20:13.019><c> can</c><00:20:13.259><c> remember</c><00:20:13.660><c> these</c><00:20:14.740><c> shocks,</c><00:20:15.359><c> these</c><00:20:15.740><c> standing</c><00:20:16.240><c> corns,</c>

00:20:17.880 --> 00:20:19.980
tied<00:20:18.140><c> round</c><00:20:18.440><c> the</c><00:20:18.680><c> top,</c><00:20:18.859><c> ready</c><00:20:19.160><c> to</c><00:20:19.359><c> be</c><00:20:19.640><c> collected.</c>

00:20:20.099 --> 00:20:22.240
Now<00:20:20.279><c> they've</c><00:20:20.500><c> got</c><00:20:20.660><c> big</c><00:20:21.059><c> balers,</c><00:20:21.480><c> haven't</c><00:20:21.680><c> they,</c>

00:20:22.440 --> 00:20:25.420
which<00:20:23.119><c> provide</c><00:20:24.000><c> the</c><00:20:24.240><c> same</c><00:20:24.539><c> thing.</c>

00:20:25.440 --> 00:20:28.200
But<00:20:25.640><c> that</c><00:20:25.799><c> would</c><00:20:26.000><c> be</c><00:20:26.220><c> the</c><00:20:26.380><c> idea</c><00:20:26.859><c> of</c><00:20:27.099><c> the</c><00:20:27.339><c> standing</c><00:20:27.740><c> corn.</c>

00:20:28.559 --> 00:20:32.240
And<00:20:28.720><c> here</c><00:20:28.839><c> we</c><00:20:29.099><c> are,</c><00:20:30.319><c> down</c><00:20:30.480><c> in</c><00:20:30.880><c> this</c><00:20:31.059><c> area,</c><00:20:31.640><c> in</c><00:20:31.799><c> Tinnath,</c>

00:20:32.299 --> 00:20:35.440
and<00:20:32.440><c> it's</c><00:20:32.579><c> in</c><00:20:32.759><c> the</c><00:20:33.039><c> valley</c><00:20:33.579><c> of</c><00:20:34.819><c> Zurich.</c>

00:20:35.440 --> 00:20:39.180
So<00:20:36.079><c> there's</c><00:20:36.559><c> standing</c><00:20:36.940><c> corn</c><00:20:37.380><c> in</c><00:20:37.859><c> the</c><00:20:38.140><c> valley</c><00:20:38.420><c> of</c><00:20:38.720><c> Zurich.</c>

00:20:39.319 --> 00:20:41.539
Now,<00:20:39.440><c> what</c><00:20:39.559><c> does</c><00:20:39.720><c> that</c><00:20:39.980><c> remind</c><00:20:40.400><c> us</c><00:20:40.640><c> of?</c>

00:20:41.579 --> 00:20:44.079
And<00:20:41.720><c> what</c><00:20:41.799><c> we've</c><00:20:42.160><c> got</c><00:20:42.339><c> in</c><00:20:43.220><c> the</c><00:20:43.420><c> Word</c><00:20:43.619><c> of</c><00:20:43.900><c> God,</c>

00:20:44.480 --> 00:20:46.619
particularly<00:20:45.000><c> in</c><00:20:45.339><c> the</c><00:20:45.740><c> book</c><00:20:45.960><c> of</c><00:20:46.200><c> Judges,</c>

00:20:46.839 --> 00:20:52.880
we<00:20:46.960><c> have</c><00:20:47.140><c> little</c><00:20:47.660><c> snapshots,</c><00:20:51.259><c> little</c><00:20:51.579><c> photographs</c>

00:20:53.279 --> 00:20:56.660
of<00:20:53.839><c> the</c><00:20:54.119><c> things</c><00:20:54.700><c> related</c><00:20:55.500><c> to</c><00:20:55.720><c> the</c><00:20:55.980><c> time</c><00:20:56.180><c> of</c><00:20:56.400><c> the</c><00:20:56.539><c> end.</c>

00:20:56.700 --> 00:20:58.880
And<00:20:56.819><c> that's</c><00:20:56.960><c> what</c><00:20:57.059><c> we</c><00:20:57.220><c> want</c><00:20:57.380><c> to</c><00:20:57.559><c> talk</c><00:20:57.759><c> about</c><00:20:58.180><c> this</c><00:20:58.519><c> morning,</c>

00:20:59.119 --> 00:21:03.839
how<00:20:59.400><c> Samson</c><00:21:00.220><c> now,</c><00:21:01.920><c> God's</c><00:21:02.599><c> spirit</c><00:21:02.799><c> moves</c><00:21:03.160><c> him,</c>

00:21:03.839 --> 00:21:06.859
and<00:21:04.200><c> he</c><00:21:04.380><c> does</c><00:21:04.740><c> what</c><00:21:04.960><c> he</c><00:21:05.099><c> was</c><00:21:05.279><c> intended</c><00:21:05.799><c> to</c><00:21:06.079><c> do.</c>

00:21:06.920 --> 00:21:08.819
He<00:21:07.079><c> takes</c><00:21:07.559><c> charge.</c>

00:21:09.579 --> 00:21:11.519
And<00:21:09.680><c> we</c><00:21:09.839><c> have</c><00:21:10.140><c> circumstances</c><00:21:10.960><c> here</c>

00:21:11.519 --> 00:21:15.460
which<00:21:11.980><c> remind</c><00:21:12.460><c> us</c><00:21:12.740><c> very</c><00:21:13.180><c> much</c><00:21:13.819><c> of</c><00:21:14.220><c> Armageddon,</c>

a<00:21:15.880><c> heap</c><00:21:16.059><c> of</c><00:21:16.500><c> sheaves</c><00:21:17.000><c> in</c><00:21:17.500><c> a</c><00:21:17.700><c> valley</c><00:21:18.099><c> of</c><00:21:18.559><c> judgment.</c>

00:21:19.960 --> 00:21:22.880
And<00:21:20.119><c> that's</c><00:21:20.380><c> what</c><00:21:20.619><c> Samson</c><00:21:21.220><c> is</c><00:21:21.640><c> going</c><00:21:21.740><c> to</c><00:21:21.940><c> be</c><00:21:22.140><c> involved</c><00:21:22.500><c> in</c>

00:21:25.720 --> 00:21:28.880
Now,<00:21:26.119><c> look</c><00:21:26.339><c> at</c><00:21:26.440><c> what</c><00:21:26.599><c> it</c><00:21:26.920><c> says</c><00:21:27.339><c> with</c><00:21:27.819><c> regards</c><00:21:28.279><c> to</c><00:21:28.559><c> this.</c>

00:21:29.240 --> 00:21:33.019
It<00:21:29.420><c> calls</c><00:21:29.740><c> them</c><00:21:30.019><c> firebrands,</c><00:21:31.000><c> doesn't</c><00:21:31.279><c> it,</c><00:21:31.480><c> in</c><00:21:31.640><c> verse</c><00:21:31.940><c> 4?</c>

300<00:21:34.660><c> foxes,</c><00:21:35.279><c> and</c><00:21:35.279><c> he</c><00:21:35.440><c> took</c><00:21:35.799><c> firebrands.</c>

00:21:37.160 --> 00:21:39.420
Now,<00:21:37.299><c> that's</c><00:21:37.559><c> the</c><00:21:37.680><c> Hebrew</c><00:21:37.980><c> word</c><00:21:38.259><c> lapid.</c>

00:21:39.940 --> 00:21:43.160
And<00:21:40.059><c> it's</c><00:21:40.319><c> used</c><00:21:40.460><c> in</c><00:21:40.660><c> Genesis</c><00:21:41.000><c> 15,</c><00:21:41.759><c> verse</c><00:21:41.940><c> 17,</c>

00:22:06.559 --> 00:22:10.980
would<00:22:07.079><c> become</c><00:22:07.480><c> like</c><00:22:07.779><c> those</c><00:22:08.160><c> divided</c><00:22:08.839><c> carcasses.</c>

00:22:11.079 --> 00:22:14.859
And<00:22:11.180><c> Abraham's</c><00:22:11.779><c> faith</c><00:22:12.319><c> resisted</c>

00:22:14.859 --> 00:22:19.220
the<00:22:15.900><c> aggression</c><00:22:16.700><c> of</c><00:22:17.460><c> the</c><00:22:17.640><c> birds</c><00:22:17.900><c> of</c><00:22:18.220><c> prey.</c>

00:22:19.700 --> 00:22:23.119
So<00:22:19.819><c> it's</c><00:22:20.079><c> related</c><00:22:20.440><c> to</c><00:22:20.700><c> covenant</c><00:22:21.019><c> relationship</c><00:22:21.740><c> in</c><00:22:21.980><c> Genesis</c><00:22:22.359><c> 15.</c>

00:22:23.359 --> 00:22:27.200
But<00:22:23.579><c> in</c><00:22:24.019><c> Ezekiel,</c><00:22:24.799><c> you've</c><00:22:25.180><c> got</c><00:22:25.420><c> lamps</c><00:22:25.819><c> of</c><00:22:26.180><c> fire.</c>

00:22:27.480 --> 00:22:29.960
And<00:22:28.240><c> it's</c><00:22:28.579><c> related</c><00:22:28.900><c> to</c><00:22:29.119><c> the</c><00:22:29.359><c> carabine,</c>

00:22:30.339 --> 00:22:32.759
which<00:22:30.359><c> depicts</c><00:22:30.839><c> the</c><00:22:31.079><c> work</c><00:22:31.299><c> of</c><00:22:31.619><c> judgment.</c>

00:22:33.759 --> 00:22:35.500
These<00:22:33.839><c> are</c><00:22:34.079><c> Bible</c><00:22:34.480><c> echoes.</c>

00:22:35.599 --> 00:22:38.779
It<00:22:36.039><c> occurs</c><00:22:36.380><c> about</c><00:22:36.759><c> 14</c><00:22:37.160><c> times</c><00:22:37.599><c> in</c><00:22:37.799><c> the</c><00:22:37.940><c> Word</c><00:22:38.079><c> of</c><00:22:38.299><c> God.</c>

00:22:39.039 --> 00:22:40.299
There's<00:22:39.099><c> that</c><00:22:39.400><c> word.</c>

00:22:42.720 --> 00:22:45.259
But<00:22:42.960><c> it's</c><00:22:43.200><c> more</c><00:22:43.440><c> than</c><00:22:43.619><c> that,</c><00:22:43.819><c> brethren</c><00:22:44.119><c> and</c><00:22:44.380><c> sisters.</c>

00:22:46.460 --> 00:22:48.319
It's<00:22:46.880><c> more</c><00:22:47.140><c> than</c><00:22:47.400><c> that.</c>

00:22:48.980 --> 00:22:52.380
We're<00:22:49.380><c> reminded</c><00:22:50.079><c> of</c><00:22:50.920><c> Gideon,</c>

00:22:52.980 --> 00:22:55.079

00:22:55.079 --> 00:22:57.740
And<00:22:56.019><c> they</c><00:22:56.220><c> had</c><00:22:56.559><c> lamps.</c>

00:22:58.880 --> 00:23:01.700
And<00:22:59.000><c> they</c><00:22:59.819><c> waited</c><00:23:00.400><c> until</c><00:23:00.799><c> they</c><00:23:01.039><c> all</c><00:23:01.319><c> shouted,</c>

00:23:01.980 --> 00:23:04.559
broke<00:23:02.220><c> the</c><00:23:02.500><c> pictures,</c><00:23:03.259><c> and</c><00:23:03.380><c> the</c><00:23:03.539><c> lamps</c><00:23:03.819><c> burned</c><00:23:04.240><c> brightly.</c>

00:23:04.799 --> 00:23:07.240
And<00:23:04.940><c> there's</c><00:23:05.299><c> that</c><00:23:05.579><c> word,</c><00:23:06.180><c> lapi.</c>

00:23:08.039 --> 00:23:11.059

00:23:15.619 --> 00:23:19.380
But<00:23:15.799><c> it's</c><00:23:16.039><c> also</c><00:23:17.099><c> a</c><00:23:17.619><c> representative</c><00:23:18.180><c> at</c><00:23:18.440><c> the</c><00:23:18.640><c> time</c><00:23:18.839><c> of</c><00:23:19.039><c> the</c><00:23:19.160><c> end.</c>

00:23:19.599 --> 00:23:21.839
Let's<00:23:19.799><c> just</c><00:23:20.019><c> go</c><00:23:20.220><c> to</c><00:23:20.440><c> Zechariah</c><00:23:20.900><c> chapter</c><00:23:21.200><c> 12.</c>

00:24:02.599 --> 00:24:04.380
And<00:24:02.779><c> so</c><00:24:02.859><c> what</c><00:24:03.039><c> you</c><00:24:03.259><c> have</c><00:24:03.359><c> is</c><00:24:03.559><c> a</c><00:24:03.819><c> picture</c>

00:26:31.599 --> 00:26:33.519
it's<00:26:31.779><c> rather</c><00:26:32.059><c> interesting</c><00:26:32.680><c> that</c><00:26:32.859><c> in</c><00:26:33.039><c> the</c>

00:26:43.240 --> 00:26:45.539
And<00:26:43.339><c> then</c><00:26:43.500><c> the</c><00:26:43.579><c> next</c><00:26:43.880><c> thing</c><00:26:44.400><c> is</c><00:26:45.259><c> that</c>

00:27:12.180 --> 00:27:14.259
Now<00:27:12.599><c> here</c><00:27:12.920><c> we</c><00:27:13.160><c> are</c><00:27:13.420><c> on</c><00:27:13.720><c> the</c><00:27:13.880><c> map,</c>

00:27:31.099 --> 00:27:34.059
Now<00:27:31.799><c> this</c><00:27:32.519><c> is</c><00:27:32.839><c> the</c><00:27:33.099><c> tribe</c><00:27:33.400><c> of</c><00:27:33.759><c> Judah.</c>

00:27:36.920 --> 00:27:39.599
So<00:27:37.160><c> Samson's</c><00:27:37.680><c> now</c><00:27:37.900><c> moved</c><00:27:38.160><c> out</c><00:27:38.440><c> of</c><00:27:38.660><c> Philistine</c><00:27:39.059><c> country,</c>

00:27:41.400 --> 00:27:43.599

00:27:45.940 --> 00:27:48.839

Hawk<00:27:54.940><c> ground.</c>

00:27:56.059 --> 00:27:58.220
It's<00:27:56.420><c> a</c><00:27:56.599><c> bird</c><00:27:56.880><c> of</c><00:27:57.220><c> prey.</c>

In<00:37:44.900><c> John</c><00:37:45.179><c> chapter</c><00:37:45.619><c> 11,</c>

the<00:37:48.980><c> Pharisees</c><00:37:49.559><c> gathered</c>

00:37:57.960 --> 00:37:59.219
For<00:37:58.199><c> this</c><00:37:58.539><c> man</c><00:37:58.880><c> does</c>

00:37:59.219 --> 00:38:00.920
many<00:37:59.739><c> miracles.</c>

00:38:01.039 --> 00:38:03.400
They<00:38:01.219><c> couldn't</c><00:38:01.440><c> deny</c><00:38:01.880><c> what</c><00:38:02.079><c> he</c><00:38:02.239><c> was</c><00:38:02.460><c> doing.</c>

00:38:04.219 --> 00:38:05.559
If<00:38:04.860><c> we</c><00:38:05.099><c> let</c><00:38:05.300><c> him</c>

00:38:07.420 --> 00:38:09.039

00:38:09.539 --> 00:38:11.179
And<00:38:09.760><c> the</c><00:38:10.059><c> Romans</c><00:38:10.460><c> shall</c><00:38:10.840><c> come</c>

00:38:15.059 --> 00:38:16.519
They<00:38:15.480><c> too</c><00:38:15.780><c> were</c><00:38:16.059><c> willing</c>

00:38:21.019 --> 00:38:23.380
We<00:38:21.300><c> have</c><00:38:21.480><c> no</c><00:38:21.800><c> king</c><00:38:22.099><c> but</c><00:38:22.420><c> Caesar.</c>

00:38:23.880 --> 00:38:25.400
And<00:38:24.119><c> so</c><00:38:24.239><c> they</c><00:38:24.559><c> concocted.</c>

00:38:26.380 --> 00:38:27.659
It<00:38:27.019><c> says,</c>

00:38:28.019 --> 00:38:29.099
Caiaphas<00:38:28.500><c> stood</c><00:38:28.780><c> up</c>

00:38:29.460 --> 00:38:31.300

Nor<00:38:33.960><c> consider</c><00:38:34.440><c> that</c><00:38:34.659><c> it</c><00:38:34.920><c> is</c><00:38:35.239><c> expedient</c>

00:38:35.739 --> 00:38:37.420
for<00:38:35.980><c> us</c><00:38:36.460><c> that</c><00:38:36.920><c> one</c><00:38:37.159><c> man</c>

00:38:42.000 --> 00:38:43.079
And<00:38:42.179><c> so</c><00:38:42.280><c> they</c><00:38:42.460><c> decided</c>

00:38:43.079 --> 00:38:45.820
that<00:38:44.099><c> the</c><00:38:44.340><c> only</c><00:38:45.039><c> recourse</c>

Or<00:38:51.039><c> Jesus</c><00:38:51.380><c> put</c><00:38:51.659><c> to</c><00:38:51.860><c> death.</c>

00:38:52.099 --> 00:38:53.760
And<00:38:52.260><c> that</c><00:38:52.400><c> was</c><00:38:52.619><c> the</c><00:38:53.119><c> situation</c>

00:38:53.760 --> 00:38:55.400
in<00:38:54.840><c> the</c><00:38:55.059><c> days</c>

00:38:55.400 --> 00:38:57.179
of<00:38:55.840><c> Samson.</c>

00:38:57.780 --> 00:38:59.480
Verse<00:38:58.059><c> 12</c><00:38:58.519><c> of</c><00:38:58.760><c> chapter</c><00:38:59.039><c> 15</c>

00:38:59.480 --> 00:39:01.019
We<00:38:59.639><c> are</c><00:38:59.800><c> come</c><00:38:59.900><c> down</c><00:39:00.260><c> to</c><00:39:00.460><c> bind</c><00:39:00.760><c> thee,</c>

00:39:04.199 --> 00:39:05.800
And<00:39:04.360><c> Samson</c><00:39:04.679><c> said,</c><00:39:05.059><c> swear</c><00:39:05.380><c> unto</c><00:39:05.579><c> me</c>

00:39:05.800 --> 00:39:07.820
that<00:39:05.920><c> you</c><00:39:06.099><c> will</c><00:39:06.239><c> not</c><00:39:06.400><c> fall</c><00:39:06.719><c> upon</c><00:39:06.920><c> me</c><00:39:07.139><c> yourselves.</c>

00:39:08.199 --> 00:39:09.559
And<00:39:08.420><c> they</c><00:39:08.519><c> said,</c><00:39:08.820><c> we</c><00:39:08.900><c> won't.</c>

00:39:09.679 --> 00:39:11.239
But<00:39:09.840><c> we</c><00:39:10.039><c> will</c><00:39:10.320><c> bind</c><00:39:10.559><c> thee</c><00:39:10.820><c> fast</c>

00:39:15.820 --> 00:39:17.380
Now<00:39:16.219><c> it's</c><00:39:16.559><c> amazing,</c><00:39:17.139><c> isn't</c><00:39:17.260><c> it,</c>

00:39:17.380 --> 00:39:18.760
when<00:39:17.559><c> we</c><00:39:17.719><c> look</c><00:39:17.880><c> at</c><00:39:18.019><c> the</c><00:39:18.159><c> next</c><00:39:18.460><c> chart,</c>

00:39:41.440 --> 00:39:43.179
Judah<00:39:41.699><c> accepted</c><00:39:42.400><c> their</c><00:39:42.719><c> bondage</c>

00:39:43.179 --> 00:39:46.219
and<00:39:43.320><c> we've</c><00:39:43.500><c> just</c><00:39:43.699><c> read</c><00:39:43.900><c> of</c><00:39:44.079><c> that</c><00:39:44.260><c> in</c><00:39:44.460><c> John</c><00:39:44.659><c> chapter</c><00:39:45.019><c> 11.</c>

00:39:47.639 --> 00:39:50.480
They<00:39:47.780><c> were</c><00:39:47.980><c> not</c><00:39:48.179><c> prepared</c><00:39:48.559><c> to</c><00:39:48.840><c> kill</c><00:39:49.059><c> him.</c>

00:39:50.599 --> 00:39:51.079
Pilate<00:39:50.880><c> says,</c>

00:39:51.260 --> 00:39:52.820
you've<00:39:51.440><c> got</c><00:39:51.619><c> a</c><00:39:51.800><c> law,</c>

00:39:55.380 --> 00:39:58.159
And<00:39:55.940><c> they</c><00:39:56.159><c> manipulated</c><00:39:56.900><c> Pilate</c>

00:39:58.159 --> 00:40:00.480

00:40:02.079 --> 00:40:03.460
They<00:40:02.239><c> delivered</c><00:40:02.659><c> up</c><00:40:03.039><c> the</c><00:40:03.219><c> man</c>

00:40:05.579 --> 00:40:08.320
So<00:40:05.820><c> they</c><00:40:06.079><c> did</c><00:40:06.260><c> with</c><00:40:06.460><c> the</c><00:40:06.599><c> Lord</c><00:40:06.800><c> Jesus</c><00:40:07.179><c> Christ.</c>

00:50:54.409 --> 00:50:56.750
We've<00:50:54.969><c> arrived</c><00:50:55.329><c> at</c><00:50:55.530><c> a</c><00:50:55.809><c> time,</c><00:50:56.070><c> a</c><00:50:56.230><c> little</c><00:50:56.409><c> early</c>
