00:01:16.459 --> 00:01:22.280
But<00:01:17.060><c> this</c><00:01:17.340><c> passage</c><00:01:17.799><c> in</c><00:01:17.980><c> Romans</c><00:01:18.340><c> chapter</c><00:01:18.980><c> 8</c><00:01:19.799><c> pulls</c><00:01:20.260><c> together</c><00:01:20.659><c> some</c><00:01:20.859><c> of</c><00:01:20.939><c> these</c><00:01:21.180><c> perspectives</c><00:01:21.680><c> in</c><00:01:22.099><c> a</c>

00:01:22.280 --> 00:01:24.180
very<00:01:22.799><c> poignant</c><00:01:23.120><c> way.</c>

00:01:24.739 --> 00:01:29.180
We'll<00:01:24.840><c> start</c><00:01:25.060><c> reading</c><00:01:25.340><c> at</c><00:01:25.599><c> verse</c><00:01:25.799><c> 20.</c>

00:01:29.780 --> 00:01:34.459
For<00:01:29.840><c> the</c><00:01:30.099><c> creature</c><00:01:30.540><c> was</c><00:01:30.980><c> made</c><00:01:31.379><c> subject</c><00:01:31.760><c> to</c><00:01:32.040><c> vanity,</c><00:01:33.120><c> not</c><00:01:33.560><c> willingly,</c><00:01:34.239><c> but</c>

00:01:34.459 --> 00:01:38.620
by<00:01:34.799><c> reason</c><00:01:35.099><c> of</c><00:01:35.420><c> him</c><00:01:35.780><c> who</c><00:01:36.319><c> has</c><00:01:36.579><c> subjected</c><00:01:37.099><c> the</c><00:01:37.500><c> same</c><00:01:37.799><c> in</c><00:01:38.219><c> hope.</c>

00:01:38.620 --> 00:01:43.400
So<00:01:39.120><c> it's</c><00:01:39.239><c> talking</c><00:01:39.439><c> about</c><00:01:39.659><c> the</c><00:01:39.719><c> way</c><00:01:39.900><c> God</c><00:01:40.159><c> made</c><00:01:40.459><c> us,</c><00:01:41.519><c> a</c><00:01:41.700><c> characteristic</c><00:01:42.260><c> which</c><00:01:42.480><c> we</c><00:01:42.719><c> have.</c>

00:01:43.659 --> 00:01:48.560
Because<00:01:43.659><c> the</c><00:01:44.280><c> creature</c><00:01:44.879><c> itself</c><00:01:45.780><c> also</c><00:01:46.980><c> shall</c><00:01:47.519><c> be</c><00:01:47.920><c> delivered</c>

00:02:11.240 --> 00:02:15.699
And<00:02:11.240><c> Paul</c><00:02:11.879><c> goes</c><00:02:12.120><c> on</c><00:02:12.460><c> to</c><00:02:12.900><c> describe</c><00:02:13.419><c> this</c><00:02:13.719><c> bondage</c><00:02:14.060><c> in</c><00:02:14.180><c> verse</c><00:02:14.439><c> 22.</c>

00:02:15.860 --> 00:02:23.759
For<00:02:16.039><c> we</c><00:02:16.360><c> know</c><00:02:17.000><c> that</c><00:02:18.280><c> the</c><00:02:18.560><c> whole</c><00:02:18.860><c> creation</c><00:02:20.060><c> groaneth</c><00:02:21.080><c> and</c><00:02:21.800><c> travaileth</c><00:02:23.219><c> in</c>

That<00:10:02.940><c> is,</c><00:10:03.200><c> because</c><00:10:03.460><c> you</c><00:10:03.659><c> had</c><00:10:03.919><c> debt</c><00:10:04.340><c> and</c><00:10:04.919><c> no</c><00:10:05.480><c> reasonable</c><00:10:06.620><c> way</c>

and<00:10:15.740><c> you</c><00:10:15.960><c> would</c><00:10:16.159><c> then</c><00:10:16.740><c> be</c><00:10:17.179><c> a</c><00:10:17.340><c> slave</c><00:10:17.519><c> either</c><00:10:18.019><c> until</c><00:10:18.620><c> the</c><00:10:18.860><c> debt</c>

00:10:23.539 --> 00:10:29.299
And<00:10:23.779><c> then</c><00:10:23.879><c> we</c><00:10:24.019><c> talked</c><00:10:24.259><c> a</c><00:10:24.340><c> bit</c><00:10:24.460><c> yesterday</c><00:10:24.860><c> about</c><00:10:25.220><c> kidnapping</c><00:10:25.700><c> and</c><00:10:26.019><c> piracy,</c><00:10:26.539><c> which</c><00:10:27.340><c> has</c><00:10:28.620><c> always</c><00:10:28.919><c> been</c><00:10:29.139><c> a</c>

00:10:29.299 --> 00:10:29.899
threat,<00:10:29.460><c> I</c><00:10:29.539><c> guess.</c>

00:10:29.899 --> 00:10:34.320
But<00:10:30.259><c> still</c><00:10:30.500><c> in</c><00:10:31.019><c> today's</c><00:10:31.559><c> world</c><00:10:31.840><c> is</c><00:10:32.080><c> a</c><00:10:32.340><c> threat</c><00:10:32.820><c> of</c><00:10:33.919><c> individuals</c>

00:10:34.320 --> 00:10:36.679
being<00:10:34.779><c> kidnapped</c><00:10:35.259><c> in</c><00:10:35.519><c> certain</c><00:10:35.720><c> countries</c><00:10:36.039><c> of</c><00:10:36.220><c> the</c><00:10:36.379><c> world</c>

00:10:36.679 --> 00:10:39.179

00:10:39.679 --> 00:10:43.320
So<00:10:40.019><c> those</c><00:10:40.299><c> are</c><00:10:40.480><c> some</c><00:10:40.740><c> facts</c><00:10:41.159><c> about</c><00:10:42.139><c> slavery.</c>

00:10:43.419 --> 00:10:51.159
The<00:10:43.799><c> next</c><00:10:44.120><c> chart</c><00:10:44.340><c> will</c><00:10:44.539><c> talk</c><00:10:44.779><c> about</c><00:10:45.120><c> the</c><00:10:47.600><c> life</c><00:10:49.120><c> of</c><00:10:49.399><c> a</c><00:10:49.460><c> Roman</c><00:10:49.799><c> slave.</c>

00:10:58.899 --> 00:11:04.700
Again,<00:10:59.639><c> I</c><00:10:59.659><c> remind</c><00:11:00.080><c> you</c><00:11:00.320><c> that</c><00:11:00.820><c> these</c><00:11:01.279><c> are</c><00:11:02.360><c> statements</c><00:11:02.860><c> that</c><00:11:03.179><c> apply</c><00:11:03.980><c> to</c>

00:11:06.120 --> 00:11:12.639
It<00:11:06.419><c> changed</c><00:11:06.679><c> certainly</c><00:11:07.080><c> within</c><00:11:07.440><c> the</c><00:11:08.320><c> scope</c><00:11:08.539><c> of</c><00:11:08.720><c> the</c><00:11:08.759><c> Roman</c><00:11:08.980><c> Empire,</c><00:11:09.600><c> which</c><00:11:09.879><c> ran</c><00:11:10.220><c> for,</c><00:11:10.679><c> what,</c><00:11:10.759><c> 700</c><00:11:10.980><c> years</c><00:11:11.320><c> or</c><00:11:11.559><c> more.</c>

00:11:13.019 --> 00:11:17.379
And<00:11:13.620><c> it</c><00:11:14.000><c> started</c><00:11:14.159><c> out</c><00:11:14.519><c> with</c><00:11:14.960><c> slaves</c><00:11:15.259><c> being</c><00:11:15.580><c> captured</c><00:11:16.220><c> and</c><00:11:16.860><c> having</c><00:11:17.139><c> no</c>

00:11:21.039 --> 00:11:24.700

00:11:33.639 --> 00:11:39.100
But<00:11:34.240><c> essentially,</c><00:11:36.980><c> this</c><00:11:37.139><c> is</c><00:11:37.779><c> how</c><00:11:38.139><c> slaves</c><00:11:38.659><c> were</c><00:11:38.960><c> viewed.</c>

00:33:37.619 --> 00:33:42.160

Now<00:33:51.960><c> this</c><00:33:52.160><c> is</c><00:33:52.380><c> different.</c><00:33:55.579><c> This</c><00:33:55.819><c> is</c><00:33:56.099><c> certainly</c><00:33:56.319><c> different</c>

from<00:33:57.460><c> Roman</c><00:33:57.819><c> law.</c>

00:34:06.720 --> 00:34:11.139

00:34:11.219 --> 00:34:14.960
You<00:34:11.519><c> had</c><00:34:11.760><c> to</c><00:34:11.920><c> do</c><00:34:12.059><c> it,</c><00:34:12.400><c> otherwise</c><00:34:12.719><c> you</c><00:34:12.880><c> were</c><00:34:13.139><c> liable.</c><00:34:14.260><c> You</c><00:34:14.639><c> would</c><00:34:14.800><c> have</c>

the<00:34:24.519><c> slave.</c>

00:34:24.739 --> 00:34:30.920
They<00:34:24.880><c> can</c><00:34:25.619><c> buy</c><00:34:25.900><c> the</c><00:34:26.179><c> slave,</c><00:34:27.159><c> or</c><00:34:27.400><c> offer</c><00:34:27.659><c> to</c><00:34:27.840><c> buy</c><00:34:27.980><c> the</c><00:34:28.219><c> slave,</c><00:34:29.340><c> but</c><00:34:29.619><c> the</c><00:34:30.119><c> normal</c><00:34:30.340><c> course</c><00:34:30.619><c> would</c><00:34:30.800><c> be</c>

00:34:35.360 --> 00:34:36.380
his<00:34:35.579><c> owner.</c>

00:34:38.559 --> 00:34:42.300
So<00:34:39.139><c> in</c><00:34:39.719><c> Deuteronomy</c><00:34:40.199><c> 23</c><00:34:40.699><c> verse</c><00:34:40.980><c> 15,</c>

00:35:02.599 --> 00:35:06.340
So<00:35:03.119><c> that's</c><00:35:03.639><c> a</c><00:35:04.039><c> very</c><00:35:04.880><c> interesting</c><00:35:05.519><c> law,</c><00:35:05.820><c> and</c><00:35:05.900><c> you</c><00:35:06.019><c> wonder</c><00:35:06.159><c> how</c>

00:35:06.340 --> 00:35:11.099
it<00:35:06.579><c> works.</c><00:35:07.980><c> Israel</c><00:35:08.179><c> was</c><00:35:08.440><c> a</c><00:35:08.539><c> closed</c><00:35:09.039><c> society,</c><00:35:09.739><c> a</c><00:35:09.900><c> closed</c><00:35:10.179><c> camp.</c>

00:35:11.480 --> 00:35:15.239
So<00:35:11.480><c> you</c><00:35:11.940><c> would</c><00:35:12.219><c> know,</c><00:35:12.800><c> if</c><00:35:12.960><c> you</c><00:35:13.099><c> lost</c><00:35:13.320><c> a</c><00:35:13.539><c> slave,</c><00:35:13.699><c> you</c><00:35:13.780><c> know</c><00:35:13.900><c> where</c><00:35:14.039><c> he</c><00:35:14.219><c> was.</c>

00:35:15.599 --> 00:35:20.300
And<00:35:15.800><c> you</c><00:35:15.860><c> can</c><00:35:16.059><c> imagine</c><00:35:16.460><c> some</c><00:35:17.599><c> fairly</c><00:35:17.980><c> intensive</c><00:35:18.519><c> negotiations</c><00:35:19.360><c> going</c><00:35:19.880><c> on</c><00:35:20.119><c> to</c>

00:35:20.300 --> 00:35:21.519
try<00:35:20.420><c> to</c><00:35:20.619><c> reclaim</c><00:35:20.920><c> the</c><00:35:21.239><c> slave.</c>

00:35:21.519 --> 00:35:24.219
And<00:35:22.460><c> that</c><00:35:22.860><c> may</c><00:35:23.420><c> in</c><00:35:23.519><c> fact</c><00:35:23.699><c> happen.</c>

00:35:24.659 --> 00:35:28.219
But<00:35:24.760><c> what</c><00:35:24.960><c> is</c><00:35:25.199><c> clear</c><00:35:25.420><c> here</c><00:35:25.760><c> is</c><00:35:25.920><c> that</c><00:35:26.059><c> the</c><00:35:26.199><c> person</c><00:35:26.500><c> who</c><00:35:27.480><c> has</c><00:35:27.920><c> the</c>

00:35:28.219 --> 00:35:32.360
slave<00:35:28.400><c> is</c><00:35:28.840><c> not</c><00:35:29.539><c> obliged</c><00:35:30.320><c> to</c><00:35:30.760><c> return</c><00:35:31.139><c> it,</c><00:35:31.340><c> not</c><00:35:31.559><c> required</c><00:35:32.159><c> to</c>

00:35:34.639 --> 00:35:40.239
And<00:35:35.239><c> I</c><00:35:35.820><c> guess</c><00:35:35.980><c> there's</c><00:35:36.219><c> lessons</c><00:35:36.579><c> here</c><00:35:36.880><c> to</c><00:35:38.460><c> be</c><00:35:38.980><c> learned</c><00:35:39.239><c> and</c><00:35:39.460><c> that</c><00:35:39.679><c> emerge</c><00:35:39.980><c> out</c><00:35:40.139><c> of</c>

this<00:35:40.360><c> situation.</c>

00:35:40.980 --> 00:35:49.000
In<00:35:41.099><c> the</c><00:35:42.639><c> fair</c><00:35:42.920><c> treatment</c><00:35:43.320><c> of</c><00:35:43.559><c> people</c><00:35:43.960><c> and</c><00:35:44.400><c> the</c><00:35:44.559><c> process</c><00:35:44.960><c> of</c><00:35:45.219><c> negotiation,</c><00:35:46.820><c> that</c><00:35:47.940><c> God</c><00:35:48.420><c> is</c>

00:35:49.000 --> 00:35:51.480
looking<00:35:49.599><c> to</c><00:35:50.500><c> protecting</c><00:35:50.900><c> these</c><00:35:51.239><c> people.</c>

00:35:51.659 --> 00:35:55.960
They<00:35:51.659><c> are</c><00:35:52.159><c> within</c><00:35:52.440><c> the</c><00:35:52.739><c> camp</c><00:35:52.880><c> of</c><00:35:53.179><c> God,</c><00:35:53.480><c> and</c><00:35:53.539><c> he's</c><00:35:53.699><c> not</c><00:35:53.860><c> going</c><00:35:54.019><c> to</c><00:35:54.199><c> allow</c><00:35:54.599><c> a</c>

00:36:01.519 --> 00:36:03.059
This<00:36:01.699><c> is</c><00:36:01.880><c> supposed</c><00:36:02.019><c> to</c><00:36:02.139><c> be</c><00:36:02.280><c> a</c><00:36:02.440><c> model</c><00:36:02.619><c> nation.</c>

00:36:03.059 --> 00:36:06.619
And<00:36:03.219><c> so</c><00:36:03.480><c> you</c><00:36:03.820><c> begin</c><00:36:04.119><c> to</c><00:36:04.380><c> see</c><00:36:04.539><c> some</c><00:36:04.760><c> of</c><00:36:04.900><c> the</c><00:36:05.420><c> concepts</c><00:36:05.940><c> that</c><00:36:06.199><c> are</c>

00:36:16.179 --> 00:36:19.900
So<00:36:16.480><c> those</c><00:36:16.980><c> are</c><00:36:17.199><c> a</c><00:36:17.320><c> few</c><00:36:17.400><c> of</c><00:36:17.559><c> the</c><00:36:17.679><c> laws.</c><00:36:18.059><c> We</c><00:36:18.079><c> won't</c><00:36:18.679><c> dwell</c><00:36:19.000><c> on</c><00:36:19.199><c> it</c>

They're<00:36:24.579><c> scattered</c><00:36:24.960><c> throughout</c><00:36:25.320><c> the</c><00:36:25.599><c> record.</c><00:36:26.500><c> We've</c><00:36:26.780><c> looked</c>
