00:01:56.180 --> 00:01:59.640
Again,<00:01:56.640><c> it's</c><00:01:56.840><c> a</c><00:01:56.939><c> relationship</c><00:01:57.459><c> that</c><00:01:57.700><c> he</c><00:01:57.939><c> created</c><00:01:58.359><c> for</c><00:01:59.219><c> a</c><00:01:59.379><c> very</c>

00:05:10.399 --> 00:05:14.819

00:05:16.379 --> 00:05:18.879
Are<00:05:16.579><c> they</c><00:05:16.779><c> our</c><00:05:16.980><c> best</c><00:05:17.259><c> friend?</c><00:05:17.560><c> Do</c><00:05:17.680><c> we</c><00:05:17.779><c> want</c><00:05:17.980><c> to</c><00:05:18.300><c> share</c><00:05:18.480><c> things</c>

00:05:23.399 --> 00:05:27.879
And<00:05:23.920><c> then</c><00:05:24.079><c> this</c><00:05:24.300><c> concept</c><00:05:24.759><c> of</c><00:05:25.060><c> working</c><00:05:25.439><c> together</c><00:05:26.259><c> in</c><00:05:27.240><c> work</c><00:05:27.540><c> in</c>

00:05:27.879 --> 00:05:28.920
the<00:05:28.100><c> truth.</c>

00:05:29.720 --> 00:05:32.300
Then<00:05:29.819><c> we</c><00:05:30.040><c> find</c><00:05:30.240><c> that</c><00:05:30.420><c> in</c><00:05:30.560><c> the</c><00:05:30.759><c> ensuing</c><00:05:31.019><c> verses</c><00:05:31.480><c> the</c><00:05:31.819><c> process</c>

00:05:35.800 --> 00:05:38.000
It's<00:05:36.060><c> very</c><00:05:36.379><c> different</c><00:05:36.680><c> from</c><00:05:36.899><c> the</c><00:05:37.079><c> process</c><00:05:37.319><c> of</c><00:05:37.519><c> the</c><00:05:37.680><c> creation</c>

00:05:40.319 --> 00:05:42.519
And<00:05:40.579><c> again</c><00:05:40.759><c> it</c><00:05:40.920><c> really</c><00:05:41.240><c> just</c><00:05:41.500><c> has</c><00:05:41.639><c> to</c><00:05:41.800><c> come</c><00:05:41.980><c> down</c><00:05:42.160><c> to</c><00:05:42.300><c> this</c>

00:05:42.519 --> 00:05:43.339
phrase<00:05:42.720><c> dependence.</c>

00:05:43.660 --> 00:05:50.600
You<00:05:43.779><c> know</c><00:05:43.879><c> the</c><00:05:44.079><c> female</c><00:05:44.420><c> of</c><00:05:44.639><c> every</c><00:05:44.860><c> other</c><00:05:45.120><c> species</c><00:05:45.480><c> was</c><00:05:45.839><c> created</c><00:05:46.720><c> completely</c><00:05:47.939><c> independently</c><00:05:49.100><c> of</c><00:05:49.680><c> the</c><00:05:49.839><c> male.</c>

00:05:54.259 --> 00:05:56.759
And<00:05:54.259><c> we</c><00:05:54.600><c> looked</c><00:05:54.839><c> briefly</c><00:05:55.300><c> at</c><00:05:55.480><c> that</c><00:05:55.639><c> process</c><00:05:56.079><c> of</c><00:05:56.279><c> Adam</c><00:05:56.439><c> falling</c>

00:08:37.360 --> 00:08:38.259
Why?

00:08:38.559 --> 00:08:43.120
Because<00:08:39.240><c> it's</c><00:08:39.639><c> no</c><00:08:39.899><c> longer</c><00:08:40.259><c> about</c><00:08:40.759><c> me</c><00:08:41.419><c> and</c><00:08:42.080><c> what</c><00:08:42.279><c> I</c><00:08:42.620><c> get</c><00:08:42.840><c> out</c><00:08:43.000><c> of</c>

our<00:08:43.299><c> relationship.</c>

00:08:44.519 --> 00:08:47.500
It's<00:08:45.120><c> about</c><00:08:45.320><c> caring</c><00:08:45.700><c> for</c><00:08:45.919><c> the</c><00:08:45.980><c> other</c><00:08:46.120><c> person.</c>

00:08:56.080 --> 00:09:01.740

00:09:07.059 --> 00:09:10.340

00:09:34.360 --> 00:09:36.720
It's<00:09:34.600><c> a</c><00:09:34.720><c> theme</c><00:09:34.799><c> that</c><00:09:34.980><c> just</c><00:09:35.320><c> breathes</c><00:09:35.720><c> out</c><00:09:36.000><c> of</c><00:09:36.159><c> the</c><00:09:36.399><c> narrative</c>

00:09:40.940 --> 00:09:42.360

00:09:42.860 --> 00:09:47.000

00:09:59.759 --> 00:10:03.159

00:10:26.480 --> 00:10:28.940

00:11:09.779 --> 00:11:13.000

Why?

00:11:57.059 --> 00:12:01.960

00:15:10.340 --> 00:15:13.919
In<00:15:10.519><c> fact</c><00:15:10.720><c> as</c><00:15:10.940><c> the</c><00:15:11.100><c> apostle</c><00:15:11.399><c> Paul</c><00:15:11.720><c> puts</c><00:15:12.019><c> it,</c><00:15:12.720><c> to</c><00:15:12.960><c> be</c><00:15:13.259><c> obedient</c>

00:15:25.240 --> 00:15:29.059
It's<00:15:25.360><c> simply</c><00:15:25.779><c> taking</c><00:15:26.259><c> divine</c><00:15:26.759><c> principles</c><00:15:27.340><c> and</c><00:15:27.679><c> embedding</c><00:15:28.120><c> them</c><00:15:28.379><c> into</c><00:15:28.840><c> a</c>

00:25:03.099 --> 00:25:05.519
So<00:25:03.660><c> what</c><00:25:03.880><c> then?</c>

00:25:06.279 --> 00:25:10.140
The<00:25:06.359><c> Apostle</c><00:25:06.799><c> saying</c><00:25:07.359><c> still</c><00:25:08.519><c> be</c><00:25:08.779><c> submissive.</c>

00:25:10.319 --> 00:25:12.519
So<00:25:10.460><c> that</c><00:25:10.619><c> they</c><00:25:10.740><c> can</c><00:25:10.960><c> be</c><00:25:11.160><c> won</c><00:25:11.339><c> over.</c>

00:25:13.160 --> 00:25:15.839
Now<00:25:13.220><c> there's</c><00:25:13.400><c> two</c><00:25:13.660><c> very</c><00:25:13.940><c> powerful</c><00:25:14.400><c> reasons</c><00:25:14.759><c> for</c><00:25:14.980><c> that.</c>

00:25:16.400 --> 00:25:20.940
The<00:25:16.660><c> first</c><00:25:16.940><c> one</c><00:25:17.180><c> is</c><00:25:17.720><c> it's</c><00:25:19.119><c> a</c><00:25:19.339><c> Christ</c><00:25:19.619><c> like</c><00:25:19.900><c> disposition.</c>

00:25:21.200 --> 00:25:24.799
That's<00:25:21.420><c> just</c><00:25:21.660><c> what</c><00:25:21.759><c> he's</c><00:25:21.900><c> been</c><00:25:22.099><c> talking</c><00:25:22.380><c> about</c><00:25:22.859><c> in</c><00:25:23.299><c> chapter</c><00:25:23.619><c> 2.</c>

00:25:24.920 --> 00:25:28.740

Our<00:25:30.140><c> behavior</c><00:25:30.599><c> can</c><00:25:30.819><c> be</c><00:25:31.099><c> exceedingly</c><00:25:31.660><c> powerful</c><00:25:32.319><c> in</c><00:25:32.859><c> winning</c>

00:27:18.440 --> 00:27:19.359
That's<00:27:18.700><c> the</c><00:27:18.839><c> context.</c>

00:27:19.839 --> 00:27:24.339
The<00:27:20.099><c> example</c><00:27:20.420><c> of</c><00:27:20.619><c> our</c><00:27:20.759><c> Lord</c><00:27:20.940><c> Jesus</c><00:27:21.279><c> Christ</c><00:27:21.839><c> in</c><00:27:22.359><c> chapter</c><00:27:22.680><c> 2.</c>

00:27:24.700 --> 00:27:29.980

00:27:33.559 --> 00:27:36.319
Isn't<00:27:33.660><c> that</c><00:27:33.900><c> so</c><00:27:34.180><c> different</c><00:27:34.519><c> from</c><00:27:34.779><c> the</c><00:27:35.059><c> assertive</c><00:27:35.480><c> way</c><00:27:35.900><c> that</c>

00:27:44.259 --> 00:27:47.880
Well<00:27:45.019><c> sadly</c><00:27:45.680><c> no.</c><00:27:46.039><c> There</c><00:27:46.099><c> are</c><00:27:46.220><c> men</c><00:27:46.400><c> who</c><00:27:46.660><c> are</c><00:27:46.880><c> so</c><00:27:47.200><c> obdurate</c><00:27:47.579><c> they</c>

00:27:50.259 --> 00:27:55.779
But<00:27:50.460><c> it</c><00:27:50.599><c> is</c><00:27:50.859><c> the</c><00:27:51.119><c> most</c><00:27:51.599><c> powerful</c><00:27:52.279><c> and</c><00:27:53.279><c> effective</c><00:27:53.680><c> way</c><00:27:53.960><c> available</c><00:27:54.420><c> to</c><00:27:54.680><c> us.</c>

00:27:56.299 --> 00:27:58.640
It's<00:27:56.500><c> also</c><00:27:57.279><c> Christ</c><00:27:57.819><c>-like.</c>

00:27:58.980 --> 00:28:03.140

00:31:23.319 --> 00:31:28.019
And<00:31:23.640><c> so</c><00:31:24.140><c> she</c><00:31:24.839><c> was</c><00:31:25.279><c> able</c><00:31:25.559><c> to</c><00:31:25.839><c> take</c><00:31:26.000><c> this</c><00:31:26.220><c> action</c><00:31:26.599><c> to</c><00:31:27.240><c> serve</c><00:31:27.559><c> to</c>

00:31:29.279 --> 00:31:31.559
Now<00:31:29.400><c> there's</c><00:31:29.559><c> no</c><00:31:29.779><c> words</c><00:31:30.059><c> described</c><00:31:30.500><c> here</c><00:31:30.720><c> are</c><00:31:30.799><c> there?</c>

00:31:34.220 --> 00:31:37.039
And<00:31:35.000><c> yet</c><00:31:35.140><c> we</c><00:31:35.279><c> know</c><00:31:35.680><c> from</c><00:31:35.900><c> the</c><00:31:36.079><c> quiet</c><00:31:36.240><c> little</c><00:31:36.480><c> comment</c><00:31:36.779><c> tucked</c>

00:31:41.759 --> 00:31:44.500
Her<00:31:42.019><c> husband</c><00:31:42.519><c> supported</c><00:31:43.119><c> her</c><00:31:43.640><c> to</c><00:31:43.920><c> the</c><00:31:44.119><c> hilt.</c>

00:31:44.960 --> 00:31:47.460
So<00:31:45.119><c> Hebrews</c><00:31:45.359><c> 11</c><00:31:45.680><c> could</c><00:31:45.940><c> say</c><00:31:46.140><c> that</c><00:31:46.299><c> a</c><00:31:46.440><c> divine</c><00:31:46.559><c> author</c><00:31:46.819><c> can</c><00:31:47.059><c> write,</c>

Husbands,<00:32:04.819><c> do</c><00:32:04.960><c> we</c><00:32:05.220><c> provide</c><00:32:05.960><c> an</c><00:32:06.299><c> environment</c><00:32:06.779><c> which</c><00:32:07.099><c> enables</c>

00:32:07.640 --> 00:32:11.440

Amram<00:32:11.960><c> certainly</c><00:32:12.279><c> did.</c>

00:32:13.759 --> 00:32:15.599
Alright,<00:32:13.900><c> well</c><00:32:13.980><c> let's</c><00:32:14.099><c> have</c><00:32:14.220><c> a</c><00:32:14.220><c> look</c><00:32:14.339><c> at</c><00:32:14.480><c> another</c><00:32:14.700><c> remarkable</c><00:32:15.160><c> example.</c>

00:32:15.680 --> 00:32:18.240
It's<00:32:15.839><c> the</c><00:32:15.940><c> example</c><00:32:16.359><c> of</c><00:32:17.119><c> Hannah</c><00:32:17.460><c> in</c><00:32:17.960><c> Samuel.</c>

00:32:18.259 --> 00:32:22.759
So<00:32:18.380><c> let's</c><00:32:18.559><c> turn</c><00:32:18.700><c> up</c><00:32:18.920><c> 1</c><00:32:19.240><c> Samuel</c><00:32:19.880><c> 1</c><00:32:20.700><c> and</c><00:32:21.160><c> we'll</c><00:32:21.299><c> look</c><00:32:21.440><c> at</c><00:32:21.539><c> the</c><00:32:21.740><c> remarkable</c><00:32:22.160><c> spirit</c><00:32:22.500><c> of</c>

00:32:39.200 --> 00:32:42.559
When<00:32:39.359><c> you</c><00:32:39.519><c> think</c><00:32:39.759><c> about</c><00:32:40.019><c> it</c><00:32:40.259><c> actually</c><00:32:40.900><c> Elkanah</c><00:32:41.700><c> did</c><00:32:42.039><c> have</c>

00:39:25.099 --> 00:39:27.880
But<00:39:25.219><c> this</c><00:39:25.380><c> woman's</c><00:39:25.679><c> not</c><00:39:25.860><c> only</c><00:39:26.300><c> hospitable,</c><00:39:26.920><c> she's</c><00:39:27.280><c> also</c><00:39:27.659><c> perceptive.</c>

00:44:45.599 --> 00:44:50.699
Alright,<00:44:46.340><c> this</c><00:44:46.460><c> is</c><00:44:46.639><c> a</c><00:44:46.739><c> passage</c><00:44:47.019><c> we're</c><00:44:48.480><c> familiar</c><00:44:48.780><c> with,</c><00:44:49.179><c> Proverbs</c><00:44:49.420><c> 12</c><00:44:49.719><c> verse</c><00:44:49.940><c> 4.</c>

00:48:06.420 --> 00:48:07.900
Be<00:48:06.739><c> interested</c><00:48:07.179><c> in</c><00:48:07.360><c> the</c><00:48:07.519><c> topic.</c>

00:48:07.900 --> 00:48:11.960
Be<00:48:08.619><c> interested</c><00:48:09.039><c> to</c><00:48:09.420><c> share</c><00:48:09.699><c> the</c><00:48:09.900><c> topic</c><00:48:10.159><c> together</c><00:48:10.519><c> with</c><00:48:10.699><c> him.</c>

00:48:12.280 --> 00:48:15.019
Now<00:48:12.639><c> we</c><00:48:12.719><c> all</c><00:48:12.920><c> know,</c><00:48:13.139><c> don't</c><00:48:13.320><c> we,</c><00:48:13.840><c> that</c><00:48:13.960><c> there</c><00:48:14.119><c> are</c><00:48:14.400><c> right</c><00:48:14.659><c> ways</c>

00:48:15.019 --> 00:48:17.179
and<00:48:15.320><c> wrong</c><00:48:15.539><c> ways</c><00:48:15.860><c> of</c><00:48:16.039><c> doing</c><00:48:16.199><c> this.</c>

00:48:17.900 --> 00:48:19.780
So<00:48:18.139><c> I'm</c><00:48:18.340><c> being</c><00:48:18.519><c> a</c><00:48:18.760><c> spiritual</c><00:48:18.980><c> wife.</c>

00:48:19.860 --> 00:48:21.659
I'm<00:48:20.059><c> going</c><00:48:20.139><c> to</c><00:48:20.219><c> show</c><00:48:20.380><c> you</c><00:48:20.500><c> how</c><00:48:20.699><c> encouraging</c><00:48:21.199><c> I</c><00:48:21.440><c> am.</c>

00:48:21.760 --> 00:48:23.739
You've<00:48:21.980><c> just</c><00:48:22.139><c> done</c><00:48:22.260><c> a</c><00:48:22.400><c> Bible</c><00:48:22.579><c> class</c><00:48:22.780><c> tonight.</c>

00:48:24.480 --> 00:48:27.059
There's<00:48:24.920><c> another</c><00:48:25.199><c> really</c><00:48:25.699><c> good</c><00:48:25.960><c> point</c><00:48:26.360><c> in</c><00:48:26.579><c> that</c><00:48:26.780><c> chapter.</c>

00:48:27.559 --> 00:48:29.500
You<00:48:27.760><c> could</c><00:48:27.940><c> have</c><00:48:28.079><c> made</c><00:48:28.239><c> a</c><00:48:28.440><c> really</c><00:48:28.679><c> good</c><00:48:28.940><c> point</c><00:48:29.139><c> about</c><00:48:29.340><c> it.</c>

00:48:29.579 --> 00:48:30.699
It's<00:48:29.840><c> a</c><00:48:29.900><c> pity</c><00:48:30.039><c> you</c><00:48:30.260><c> missed</c><00:48:30.500><c> it.</c>

00:48:30.699 --> 00:48:33.340
It<00:48:30.880><c> would</c><00:48:31.059><c> have</c><00:48:31.179><c> made</c><00:48:31.360><c> such</c><00:48:31.619><c> a</c><00:48:31.920><c> good</c><00:48:32.460><c> finishing</c><00:48:32.880><c> to</c><00:48:33.159><c> your</c>

00:48:33.340 --> 00:48:34.159
Bible<00:48:33.679><c> class.</c>

00:48:34.159 --> 00:48:39.679
In<00:48:35.119><c> brackets,</c><00:48:36.079><c> because</c><00:48:36.260><c> I'm</c><00:48:36.500><c> so</c><00:48:36.780><c> much</c><00:48:37.000><c> more</c><00:48:37.420><c> spiritually</c><00:48:37.780><c> perceptive</c><00:48:38.260><c> than</c><00:48:38.380><c> you</c><00:48:38.599><c> are.</c>

00:48:41.019 --> 00:48:44.460
Now<00:48:41.539><c> there</c><00:48:42.059><c> are</c><00:48:42.260><c> ways</c><00:48:42.699><c> to</c><00:48:43.000><c> do</c><00:48:43.159><c> it</c><00:48:43.360><c> and</c><00:48:43.500><c> ways</c><00:48:43.820><c> not</c><00:48:44.079><c> to</c><00:48:44.179><c> do</c><00:48:44.340><c> it,</c>

00:48:44.539 --> 00:48:46.099
aren't<00:48:44.599><c> there,</c><00:48:44.780><c> brothers</c><00:48:45.000><c> and</c><00:48:45.239><c> sisters?</c>

00:48:46.380 --> 00:48:48.719
And<00:48:46.639><c> sisters,</c><00:48:46.980><c> I</c><00:48:47.019><c> guarantee</c><00:48:47.380><c> that</c><00:48:47.539><c> you</c><00:48:47.679><c> probably</c><00:48:48.000><c> know</c><00:48:48.219><c> that.</c>

00:48:49.000 --> 00:48:51.320
Certainly<00:48:49.340><c> I</c><00:48:49.519><c> guarantee</c><00:48:49.820><c> your</c><00:48:50.019><c> husbands</c><00:48:50.400><c> do.</c>

00:48:52.039 --> 00:48:54.780
So<00:48:52.219><c> there</c><00:48:52.360><c> are</c><00:48:52.460><c> ways</c><00:48:52.719><c> in</c><00:48:52.840><c> which</c><00:48:53.019><c> you</c><00:48:53.159><c> can</c><00:48:53.380><c> provide</c><00:48:53.719><c> support</c><00:48:54.119><c> that</c><00:48:54.360><c> have</c><00:48:54.519><c> an</c>

00:48:54.780 --> 00:48:58.179
enormous<00:48:55.199><c> impact</c><00:48:55.739><c> on</c><00:48:55.880><c> what</c><00:48:56.019><c> your</c><00:48:56.260><c> husband</c><00:48:56.639><c> is</c><00:48:56.920><c> capable</c><00:48:57.199><c> of.</c>

00:48:59.199 --> 00:49:01.679
Just<00:48:59.460><c> imagine</c><00:48:59.800><c> by</c><00:48:59.980><c> way</c><00:49:00.119><c> of</c><00:49:00.360><c> contrast,</c><00:49:00.840><c> a</c><00:49:00.900><c> sister</c><00:49:01.179><c> who's</c><00:49:01.440><c> quite</c>

00:49:01.679 --> 00:49:03.280
disappointed<00:49:02.280><c> in</c><00:49:02.539><c> her</c><00:49:02.699><c> husband</c>

00:49:03.280 --> 00:49:07.099
doesn't<00:49:04.239><c> feel</c><00:49:04.559><c> that</c><00:49:04.719><c> he's</c><00:49:04.820><c> really</c><00:49:05.119><c> up</c><00:49:05.300><c> to</c><00:49:05.519><c> speed</c><00:49:06.119><c> or</c><00:49:06.619><c> as</c><00:49:06.900><c> good</c>

00:49:07.099 --> 00:49:08.840
as<00:49:07.280><c> other</c><00:49:07.460><c> brethren.</c>

00:49:09.599 --> 00:49:12.360
Aren't<00:49:10.139><c> comparisons</c><00:49:10.679><c> odious</c><00:49:11.280><c> things?</c>

00:49:13.739 --> 00:49:15.340
And<00:49:14.280><c> she</c><00:49:14.820><c> shows</c><00:49:15.079><c> it.</c>

00:49:15.440 --> 00:49:18.860
She's<00:49:15.679><c> quite</c><00:49:15.820><c> happy</c><00:49:16.039><c> to</c><00:49:16.280><c> voice</c><00:49:16.500><c> her</c><00:49:16.760><c> opinions</c><00:49:17.079><c> or</c><00:49:17.300><c> perhaps</c><00:49:17.619><c> more</c><00:49:18.019><c> subtly</c><00:49:18.440><c> show</c><00:49:18.679><c> it</c>

00:49:18.860 --> 00:49:20.340
by<00:49:19.219><c> her</c><00:49:19.460><c> behavior.</c>

00:49:21.019 --> 00:49:22.780
And<00:49:21.219><c> you</c><00:49:21.320><c> just</c><00:49:21.519><c> observe</c><00:49:21.860><c> it.</c>

00:49:22.940 --> 00:49:26.599
You<00:49:23.059><c> look</c><00:49:23.239><c> at</c><00:49:23.719><c> it</c><00:49:24.300><c> and</c><00:49:24.780><c> you</c><00:49:24.940><c> can't</c><00:49:25.199><c> help</c><00:49:25.400><c> wondering,</c>

00:49:27.079 --> 00:49:30.079
Well,<00:49:27.820><c> sister,</c><00:49:28.380><c> perhaps</c><00:49:28.380><c> the</c><00:49:28.559><c> way</c><00:49:28.920><c> that</c><00:49:29.219><c> you're</c><00:49:29.699><c> conducting</c>

00:49:30.079 --> 00:49:33.739
yourself<00:49:30.579><c> might</c><00:49:30.880><c> be</c><00:49:31.940><c> undermining</c><00:49:32.320><c> your</c><00:49:32.539><c> husband.</c>

00:49:34.840 --> 00:49:37.920
Ironically,<00:49:36.000><c> perhaps</c><00:49:36.260><c> even</c><00:49:36.619><c> ensuring</c><00:49:37.079><c> that</c><00:49:37.260><c> he</c><00:49:37.320><c> will</c><00:49:37.539><c> never</c>

00:49:41.239 --> 00:49:42.760
your<00:49:41.760><c> ambitions.</c>

00:49:43.119 --> 00:49:46.599
It<00:49:43.280><c> almost</c><00:49:43.599><c> can</c><00:49:43.840><c> become</c><00:49:44.099><c> a</c><00:49:44.300><c> self</c><00:49:44.539><c>-fulfilling</c><00:49:44.940><c> prophecy,</c><00:49:45.719><c> can't</c><00:49:45.719><c> it?</c>

00:49:47.079 --> 00:49:49.340
You<00:49:47.159><c> know,</c><00:49:47.280><c> it's</c><00:49:47.440><c> interesting</c><00:49:47.739><c> while</c><00:49:47.920><c> we're</c><00:49:48.139><c> here</c><00:49:48.260><c> on</c><00:49:48.420><c> Proverbs</c><00:49:48.679><c> 31,</c><00:49:49.039><c> just</c><00:49:49.219><c> have</c><00:49:49.300><c> a</c>

00:49:55.099 --> 00:49:58.860
Isn't<00:49:55.619><c> it</c><00:49:55.800><c> interesting</c><00:49:56.179><c> to</c><00:49:56.360><c> see</c><00:49:56.480><c> an</c><00:49:56.659><c> attribute</c><00:49:56.980><c> of</c><00:49:57.199><c> the</c><00:49:57.440><c> husband</c><00:49:58.019><c> here</c>
