00:00:35.640 --> 00:00:38.479
And<00:00:35.899><c> do</c><00:00:36.079><c> not</c><00:00:36.240><c> imagine</c><00:00:36.880><c> that</c><00:00:37.039><c> there</c><00:00:37.200><c> was</c><00:00:37.340><c> only</c><00:00:37.679><c> 38</c><00:00:38.119><c> minutes</c>

00:00:38.479 --> 00:00:39.899
in<00:00:38.740><c> me</c><00:00:38.920><c> yesterday.</c>

00:00:40.039 --> 00:00:41.840
Those<00:00:40.280><c> of</c><00:00:40.479><c> you</c><00:00:40.619><c> that</c><00:00:40.859><c> know</c><00:00:40.979><c> me</c><00:00:41.560><c> know</c>

00:00:41.840 --> 00:00:45.179
that<00:00:42.000><c> I</c><00:00:42.119><c> can</c><00:00:42.439><c> speak</c><00:00:42.740><c> nonsense</c><00:00:43.299><c> for</c><00:00:43.659><c> hours</c><00:00:43.960><c> on</c><00:00:44.359><c> end.</c>

00:00:46.060 --> 00:00:51.240
So,<00:00:47.479><c> we</c><00:00:47.820><c> looked</c><00:00:48.240><c> yesterday</c><00:00:49.020><c> at</c><00:00:49.579><c> the</c><00:00:50.039><c> law</c><00:00:50.340><c> of</c><00:00:50.600><c> the</c><00:00:50.820><c> Nazarite.</c>

00:00:51.240 --> 00:00:56.640
We<00:00:51.500><c> saw</c><00:00:51.700><c> its</c><00:00:52.020><c> placement</c><00:00:52.799><c> in</c><00:00:53.079><c> the</c><00:00:53.200><c> midst</c><00:00:53.439><c> of</c><00:00:53.859><c> a</c><00:00:54.020><c> series</c><00:00:54.320><c> of</c><00:00:55.600><c> chapters</c>

that<00:00:57.380><c> really</c><00:00:58.079><c> would</c><00:00:58.500><c> have</c><00:00:58.780><c> given</c><00:00:59.200><c> Israel</c><00:00:59.840><c> pause</c>

00:01:00.280 --> 00:01:02.640
and<00:01:00.500><c> ourselves</c><00:01:01.060><c> pause</c><00:01:01.420><c> to</c><00:01:01.640><c> consider.</c>

00:01:02.740 --> 00:01:05.079
Israel<00:01:03.060><c> was</c><00:01:03.619><c> faced</c><00:01:03.899><c> with</c><00:01:04.260><c> alternatives.</c>

00:01:05.579 --> 00:01:09.340
On<00:01:05.879><c> either</c><00:01:06.340><c> side</c><00:01:06.760><c> of</c><00:01:07.159><c> a</c><00:01:07.459><c> life</c><00:01:07.680><c> of</c><00:01:08.140><c> dedicated</c><00:01:08.640><c> service,</c>

00:01:13.000 --> 00:01:17.739
we<00:01:13.219><c> have</c><00:01:13.480><c> examples</c><00:01:14.299><c> of</c><00:01:15.040><c> disservice,</c><00:01:16.379><c> of</c><00:01:16.819><c> unfaithfulness,</c>

00:01:17.739 --> 00:01:22.280
of<00:01:18.180><c> the</c><00:01:18.579><c> failure</c><00:01:19.200><c> to</c><00:01:19.959><c> actually</c><00:01:20.700><c> honor</c><00:01:21.219><c> the</c><00:01:21.599><c> relationship</c>

with<00:01:22.760><c> God,</c>

00:01:23.180 --> 00:01:25.579
with<00:01:23.459><c> Yahweh,</c><00:01:24.439><c> that</c><00:01:24.540><c> is</c><00:01:24.920><c> in</c><00:01:25.219><c> evidence</c>

00:01:28.140 --> 00:01:29.640
You'll<00:01:28.459><c> remember</c><00:01:28.719><c> those</c><00:01:29.019><c> particular</c><00:01:29.439><c> things</c>

00:01:29.640 --> 00:01:31.739
that<00:01:29.780><c> we</c><00:01:29.939><c> talked</c><00:01:30.120><c> about</c><00:01:30.480><c> yesterday.</c>

00:01:31.920 --> 00:01:35.379
When<00:01:32.060><c> we</c><00:01:32.319><c> move</c><00:01:32.500><c> now</c><00:01:33.000><c> into</c><00:01:33.760><c> the</c><00:01:34.140><c> period</c><00:01:34.439><c> of</c><00:01:34.640><c> the</c><00:01:34.879><c> Judges,</c>

00:01:35.719 --> 00:01:37.700
we're<00:01:35.920><c> dealing</c><00:01:36.260><c> with</c><00:01:36.640><c> a</c><00:01:36.980><c> period</c><00:01:37.299><c> of</c><00:01:37.540><c> time</c>

00:01:37.700 --> 00:01:40.560
that<00:01:37.879><c> we</c><00:01:38.060><c> know</c><00:01:38.319><c> is</c><00:01:38.859><c> full</c><00:01:39.340><c> of</c><00:01:40.000><c> angst.</c>

00:01:40.599 --> 00:01:42.079
It's<00:01:40.760><c> full</c><00:01:40.980><c> of</c><00:01:41.239><c> anxiety.</c>

00:01:42.560 --> 00:01:46.739
It's<00:01:42.920><c> full</c><00:01:43.400><c> of</c><00:01:44.900><c> trouble,</c><00:01:46.079><c> challenge.</c>

00:01:46.739 --> 00:01:50.500
There<00:01:47.159><c> are</c><00:01:47.480><c> days</c><00:01:47.939><c> and</c><00:01:48.239><c> times</c><00:01:48.819><c> of</c><00:01:49.420><c> success,</c>

00:01:50.579 --> 00:01:53.540
and<00:01:50.739><c> then</c><00:01:50.879><c> there</c><00:01:51.079><c> are</c><00:01:51.480><c> times</c><00:01:51.859><c> of</c><00:01:52.319><c> desperate</c><00:01:52.900><c> failure</c>

00:01:53.540 --> 00:01:54.959

00:01:55.439 --> 00:01:58.120
Now,<00:01:55.579><c> let's</c><00:01:55.739><c> just</c><00:01:55.900><c> have</c><00:01:56.060><c> a</c><00:01:56.159><c> quick</c><00:01:56.319><c> look</c><00:01:56.620><c> at</c><00:01:56.920><c> Judges</c><00:01:57.319><c> chapter</c><00:01:57.700><c> one.</c>

00:01:58.500 --> 00:01:59.719
You<00:01:58.640><c> know</c><00:01:58.760><c> the</c><00:01:58.859><c> period</c><00:01:59.120><c> of</c><00:01:59.280><c> the</c><00:01:59.439><c> Judges</c>

00:01:59.719 --> 00:02:01.760
extends<00:02:00.040><c> for</c><00:02:00.280><c> over</c><00:02:00.579><c> 400</c><00:02:00.920><c> years,</c>

00:02:02.159 --> 00:02:03.819
and<00:02:02.359><c> that</c><00:02:02.480><c> this</c><00:02:02.620><c> is</c><00:02:02.780><c> really</c><00:02:03.019><c> the</c><00:02:03.239><c> early</c><00:02:03.519><c> stage,</c>

00:02:03.859 --> 00:02:06.239
but<00:02:03.980><c> there's</c><00:02:04.219><c> a</c><00:02:04.640><c> theme</c><00:02:05.019><c> that</c><00:02:05.180><c> is</c><00:02:05.500><c> established</c>

00:02:06.239 --> 00:02:09.699
which<00:02:06.939><c> appears</c><00:02:07.400><c> to</c><00:02:07.680><c> run</c><00:02:07.879><c> throughout</c><00:02:08.500><c> the</c><00:02:08.840><c> book</c><00:02:08.939><c> of</c><00:02:09.120><c> the</c><00:02:09.280><c> Judges,</c>

00:02:10.000 --> 00:02:11.840
and<00:02:10.099><c> not</c><00:02:10.280><c> just</c><00:02:10.439><c> the</c><00:02:10.479><c> book</c><00:02:10.580><c> of</c><00:02:10.740><c> the</c><00:02:10.879><c> Judges,</c>

the<00:02:12.199><c> book</c><00:02:12.379><c> of</c><00:02:12.560><c> our</c><00:02:12.759><c> lives</c><00:02:13.000><c> likewise</c><00:02:13.460><c> too.</c>

00:02:14.259 --> 00:02:15.819
So<00:02:14.620><c> in</c><00:02:14.840><c> Judges</c><00:02:15.240><c> chapter</c><00:02:15.599><c> one,</c>

00:02:15.960 --> 00:02:18.699
we<00:02:15.979><c> read</c><00:02:16.180><c> the</c><00:02:16.280><c> following</c><00:02:16.860><c> encouraging</c><00:02:18.099><c> words,</c>

00:02:18.860 --> 00:02:20.819
and<00:02:18.919><c> that's</c><00:02:19.180><c> in</c><00:02:19.280><c> verse</c><00:02:19.460><c> four.</c>

00:02:21.319 --> 00:02:24.580
Judah<00:02:21.580><c> went</c><00:02:21.860><c> up,</c><00:02:22.900><c> and</c><00:02:23.080><c> Yahweh</c><00:02:23.379><c> delivered</c><00:02:23.740><c> the</c><00:02:24.080><c> Canaanites</c>

00:02:24.580 --> 00:02:26.439
and<00:02:24.759><c> the</c><00:02:24.979><c> Perizzites</c><00:02:25.460><c> into</c><00:02:25.699><c> their</c><00:02:26.000><c> hand,</c>

00:02:26.939 --> 00:02:31.800
and<00:02:27.099><c> they</c><00:02:27.860><c> slew</c><00:02:28.319><c> of</c><00:02:28.639><c> them</c><00:02:28.900><c> in</c><00:02:29.340><c> Bezek</c><00:02:29.740><c> 10</c><00:02:30.580><c>,000</c><00:02:31.400><c> men.</c>

00:02:32.099 --> 00:02:35.400
Then<00:02:32.319><c> there's</c><00:02:32.699><c> the</c><00:02:33.259><c> story</c><00:02:33.860><c> about</c><00:02:34.419><c> Adonai</c><00:02:34.960><c> Bezek</c>

00:02:35.400 --> 00:02:38.580
and<00:02:35.539><c> what</c><00:02:35.719><c> happened</c><00:02:35.879><c> to</c><00:02:36.060><c> him,</c><00:02:36.460><c> his</c><00:02:36.580><c> thumbs</c><00:02:36.960><c> and</c><00:02:37.419><c> his</c><00:02:37.740><c> great</c><00:02:38.060><c> toes,</c>

00:02:39.020 --> 00:02:42.719

00:02:42.659 --> 00:02:44.900
So<00:02:42.979><c> Yahweh</c><00:02:43.580><c> is</c><00:02:43.819><c> working</c><00:02:44.080><c> with</c><00:02:44.300><c> the</c><00:02:44.500><c> people,</c>

00:02:45.240 --> 00:02:46.639
the<00:02:45.379><c> people</c><00:02:45.599><c> are</c><00:02:45.819><c> working</c><00:02:46.000><c> with</c><00:02:46.280><c> him,</c>

00:02:50.659 --> 00:02:52.740
doing<00:02:51.000><c> what</c><00:02:51.199><c> they</c><00:02:51.379><c> were</c><00:02:51.620><c> commanded</c><00:02:52.080><c> to</c><00:02:52.419><c> do,</c>

00:02:53.020 --> 00:02:58.020
which<00:02:53.319><c> was</c><00:02:53.719><c> to</c><00:02:54.280><c> push</c><00:02:54.560><c> out</c><00:02:55.979><c> the</c><00:02:56.360><c> inhabitants</c><00:02:56.759><c> of</c><00:02:56.960><c> the</c><00:02:57.120><c> land.</c>

00:02:58.479 --> 00:03:02.379
When<00:02:58.620><c> we</c><00:02:58.780><c> get</c><00:02:58.919><c> to</c><00:02:59.060><c> chapter</c><00:02:59.719><c> one</c><00:03:00.360><c> later</c><00:03:00.819><c> on</c><00:03:01.259><c> at</c><00:03:01.520><c> verse</c><00:03:01.759><c> 21,</c>

00:03:02.780 --> 00:03:04.520
we<00:03:02.900><c> read</c><00:03:03.039><c> the</c><00:03:03.240><c> following</c><00:03:03.520><c> words.</c>

00:03:04.740 --> 00:03:08.879
And<00:03:04.939><c> the</c><00:03:05.099><c> children</c><00:03:05.379><c> of</c><00:03:05.500><c> Benjamin</c><00:03:05.900><c> did</c><00:03:06.319><c> not</c><00:03:06.919><c> drive</c><00:03:07.259><c> out</c>

00:03:09.099 --> 00:03:12.479
the<00:03:09.419><c> Jebusites</c><00:03:10.120><c> that</c><00:03:10.319><c> inhabited</c><00:03:11.139><c> Jerusalem,</c>

00:03:12.919 --> 00:03:16.400
but<00:03:13.060><c> the</c><00:03:13.360><c> Jebusites</c><00:03:14.400><c> dwell</c><00:03:14.979><c> with</c><00:03:15.219><c> the</c><00:03:15.400><c> children</c><00:03:15.620><c> of</c><00:03:15.840><c> Benjamin</c>

00:03:20.960 --> 00:03:23.340
So<00:03:21.199><c> obviously</c><00:03:21.500><c> the</c><00:03:21.659><c> book</c><00:03:21.879><c> of</c><00:03:22.280><c> Judges</c><00:03:22.659><c> was</c><00:03:22.939><c> written</c>

00:03:23.340 --> 00:03:26.800

00:03:26.800 --> 00:03:30.159
as<00:03:27.479><c> would</c><00:03:28.139><c> actually</c><00:03:28.840><c> validate</c><00:03:29.400><c> those</c><00:03:29.719><c> words</c>

00:03:30.159 --> 00:03:33.740
that<00:03:30.759><c> the</c><00:03:30.939><c> Jebusites</c><00:03:31.419><c> were</c><00:03:31.599><c> still</c><00:03:31.819><c> living</c><00:03:32.240><c> in</c><00:03:32.919><c> that</c><00:03:33.259><c> place</c>

00:03:33.740 --> 00:03:36.740
at<00:03:34.319><c> the</c><00:03:34.539><c> point</c><00:03:34.719><c> in</c><00:03:34.919><c> time</c><00:03:35.020><c> that</c><00:03:35.139><c> the</c><00:03:35.240><c> book</c><00:03:35.340><c> was</c><00:03:35.580><c> written,</c><00:03:36.360><c> right?</c>

00:03:36.740 --> 00:03:39.620
It's<00:03:37.080><c> a</c><00:03:37.319><c> book</c><00:03:37.840><c> written</c><00:03:38.520><c> very</c><00:03:39.259><c> early</c>

00:03:39.620 --> 00:03:42.139
in<00:03:40.039><c> the</c><00:03:40.180><c> history</c><00:03:40.460><c> of</c><00:03:40.659><c> the</c><00:03:40.759><c> Jewish</c><00:03:41.039><c> people.</c>

00:03:43.039 --> 00:03:46.300
But<00:03:43.259><c> you</c><00:03:43.439><c> notice</c><00:03:44.020><c> they</c><00:03:44.659><c> had</c><00:03:44.960><c> not</c><00:03:45.240><c> pushed</c><00:03:45.520><c> them</c><00:03:45.780><c> out.</c>

00:03:46.740 --> 00:03:48.620
When<00:03:46.840><c> we</c><00:03:46.979><c> drop</c><00:03:47.199><c> down</c><00:03:47.400><c> to</c><00:03:47.520><c> verse</c><00:03:47.680><c> 27,</c><00:03:48.300><c> it</c><00:03:48.319><c> says,</c>

and<00:04:04.000><c> her</c><00:04:04.219><c> towns,</c><00:04:05.099><c> but</c><00:04:05.180><c> the</c><00:04:05.400><c> Canaanites</c><00:04:05.599><c> would</c><00:04:05.800><c> dwell</c><00:04:05.919><c> in</c><00:04:06.060><c> the</c><00:04:06.219><c> land.</c>

00:04:07.759 --> 00:04:13.659
And<00:04:08.080><c> it</c><00:04:08.219><c> came</c><00:04:08.400><c> to</c><00:04:08.639><c> pass</c><00:04:08.860><c> when</c><00:04:09.819><c> Israel</c><00:04:10.539><c> was</c><00:04:11.520><c> wax</c><00:04:11.900><c> and</c><00:04:12.360><c> strong</c>

00:04:13.919 --> 00:04:16.540
that<00:04:14.240><c> they</c><00:04:14.639><c> put</c><00:04:14.900><c> the</c><00:04:15.259><c> Canaanites</c><00:04:15.800><c> to</c><00:04:16.139><c> tribute</c>

00:04:16.540 --> 00:04:19.839
and<00:04:17.139><c> did</c><00:04:17.500><c> not</c><00:04:18.040><c> utterly</c><00:04:18.420><c> drive</c><00:04:18.699><c> them</c><00:04:18.899><c> out.</c>

00:04:19.920 --> 00:04:21.379
They<00:04:20.079><c> didn't</c><00:04:20.279><c> utterly</c><00:04:20.560><c> drive</c><00:04:20.779><c> them</c><00:04:20.980><c> out.</c>

00:04:25.620 --> 00:04:27.819
So<00:04:25.860><c> the</c><00:04:26.060><c> great</c><00:04:26.259><c> irony,</c><00:04:26.800><c> the</c><00:04:26.920><c> great</c><00:04:27.199><c> paradox</c>

00:04:39.680 --> 00:04:41.899
Rather<00:04:39.980><c> than</c><00:04:40.220><c> being</c><00:04:40.519><c> strong,</c>

00:04:42.980 --> 00:04:47.279
she<00:04:43.100><c> was</c><00:04:43.399><c> actually</c><00:04:43.660><c> incredibly</c><00:04:44.139><c> weak,</c><00:04:45.800><c> spiritually</c><00:04:46.220><c> speaking.</c>

00:04:48.060 --> 00:04:50.139

How<00:07:30.300><c> might</c><00:07:30.579><c> we</c><00:07:30.920><c> interpret</c><00:07:31.300><c> that?</c>

00:07:49.740 --> 00:07:53.800
Another<00:07:50.060><c> way</c><00:07:50.319><c> of</c><00:07:50.600><c> interpreting</c><00:07:50.980><c> it</c><00:07:51.259><c> is</c><00:07:51.639><c> they</c><00:07:52.000><c> didn't</c><00:07:52.300><c> want</c><00:07:52.720><c> to</c><00:07:52.980><c> know.</c>

00:07:56.860 --> 00:07:59.579
They<00:07:57.000><c> didn't</c><00:07:57.259><c> care</c><00:07:57.480><c> about</c><00:07:57.759><c> that</c><00:07:58.019><c> old</c><00:07:58.500><c> stuff.</c>

00:07:59.920 --> 00:08:02.560
Israel<00:08:00.199><c> didn't</c><00:08:00.620><c> want</c><00:08:00.939><c> to</c><00:08:01.100><c> know</c><00:08:01.800><c> Yahweh</c>

00:08:02.560 --> 00:08:04.920

00:08:05.620 --> 00:08:06.899
But<00:08:05.720><c> there's</c><00:08:05.959><c> a</c><00:08:06.100><c> third</c><00:08:06.259><c> interpretation,</c>

00:08:07.019 --> 00:08:09.300

00:08:09.439 --> 00:08:12.779
And<00:08:09.779><c> if</c><00:08:09.899><c> we</c><00:08:10.060><c> could</c><00:08:10.240><c> have</c><00:08:10.540><c> a</c><00:08:10.720><c> look</c><00:08:10.860><c> at</c><00:08:11.100><c> Psalm</c><00:08:11.480><c> 78,</c>

00:08:12.899 --> 00:08:15.620

00:08:21.100 --> 00:08:22.379
It's<00:08:21.620><c> nothing</c><00:08:21.720><c> advanced,</c>

00:08:22.860 --> 00:08:25.060

00:11:29.080 --> 00:11:32.980
And<00:11:29.440><c> four</c><00:11:29.740><c> or</c><00:11:29.779><c> five</c><00:11:30.139><c> years</c><00:11:30.740><c> after,</c><00:11:31.940><c> in</c><00:11:32.299><c> conversation,</c>

00:11:32.980 --> 00:11:37.740
it<00:11:33.600><c> became</c><00:11:34.039><c> clear</c><00:11:34.659><c> they</c><00:11:35.580><c> almost</c><00:11:36.000><c> didn't</c><00:11:36.279><c> even</c><00:11:36.460><c> know</c><00:11:36.620><c> the</c><00:11:36.860><c> truth.</c>

00:11:38.559 --> 00:11:41.580
It<00:11:38.700><c> was</c><00:11:38.860><c> as</c><00:11:38.980><c> if</c><00:11:39.039><c> they'd</c><00:11:39.399><c> forgotten</c><00:11:39.639><c> everything</c><00:11:40.200><c> they'd</c><00:11:40.440><c> been</c><00:11:40.720><c> taught.</c>

00:11:42.360 --> 00:11:44.500
And<00:11:42.519><c> you</c><00:11:42.679><c> sit</c><00:11:42.860><c> there</c><00:11:43.039><c> in</c><00:11:43.419><c> shock</c><00:11:43.840><c> and</c><00:11:44.120><c> you</c><00:11:44.279><c> think,</c>

00:11:44.980 --> 00:11:46.519
I<00:11:45.000><c> know</c><00:11:45.200><c> this</c><00:11:45.440><c> young</c><00:11:45.620><c> lady.</c>

00:11:47.480 --> 00:11:50.200
I<00:11:47.899><c> know</c><00:11:48.080><c> who</c><00:11:48.320><c> taught</c><00:11:48.600><c> her.</c>

00:11:50.940 --> 00:11:55.419
Yet<00:11:51.080><c> she</c><00:11:51.200><c> doesn't</c><00:11:51.440><c> seem</c><00:11:51.700><c> to</c><00:11:51.899><c> have</c><00:11:52.080><c> retained</c><00:11:52.759><c> hardly</c><00:11:53.700><c> any</c><00:11:54.039><c> of</c><00:11:54.200><c> it.</c>

00:11:56.179 --> 00:11:59.360
And<00:11:56.460><c> so</c><00:11:57.039><c> at</c><00:11:57.480><c> any</c><00:11:57.639><c> point</c><00:11:57.860><c> in</c><00:11:58.120><c> time,</c>

00:12:00.000 --> 00:12:02.840
we've<00:12:00.559><c> got</c><00:12:00.700><c> to</c><00:12:01.019><c> remind</c><00:12:01.200><c> ourselves</c><00:12:01.539><c> of</c><00:12:01.740><c> the</c><00:12:01.940><c> fact</c>

00:12:02.980 --> 00:12:06.960
the<00:12:03.460><c> truth</c><00:12:03.779><c> has</c><00:12:04.080><c> got</c><00:12:04.279><c> to</c><00:12:04.419><c> be</c><00:12:04.639><c> transmitted</c><00:12:05.139><c> in</c><00:12:05.600><c> its</c><00:12:05.840><c> entirety</c>

00:12:07.200 --> 00:12:11.500
without<00:12:07.799><c> anything</c><00:12:08.179><c> sacrificed,</c><00:12:09.139><c> without</c><00:12:09.139><c> anything</c><00:12:09.659><c> watered</c><00:12:10.440><c> down,</c>

00:12:11.519 --> 00:12:13.419
without<00:12:11.759><c> anything</c><00:12:12.200><c> watered</c><00:12:12.740><c> down</c><00:12:12.960><c> in</c><00:12:13.179><c> order</c>

00:12:13.419 --> 00:12:16.320
that<00:12:13.620><c> we</c><00:12:13.740><c> might</c><00:12:13.960><c> have</c><00:12:14.240><c> everyone</c><00:12:14.620><c> comfortable</c><00:12:15.419><c> with</c><00:12:15.679><c> everyone</c><00:12:16.080><c> else</c>

00:12:16.320 --> 00:12:19.440
or<00:12:16.659><c> to</c><00:12:16.779><c> be</c><00:12:16.960><c> inclusive</c><00:12:17.539><c> or</c><00:12:17.919><c> to</c><00:12:18.080><c> have</c><00:12:18.259><c> peace</c><00:12:18.559><c> amongst</c><00:12:18.899><c> us.</c>

00:12:19.519 --> 00:12:21.360
We<00:12:19.659><c> don't</c><00:12:19.799><c> water</c><00:12:20.000><c> down</c><00:12:20.240><c> the</c><00:12:20.440><c> truth.</c>

00:12:21.879 --> 00:12:23.879
If<00:12:21.980><c> we</c><00:12:22.100><c> have</c><00:12:22.240><c> to</c><00:12:22.340><c> make</c><00:12:22.460><c> the</c><00:12:22.639><c> choice</c><00:12:22.879><c> between</c><00:12:23.279><c> inclusiveness</c>

00:12:23.879 --> 00:12:26.820
and<00:12:24.240><c> principle,</c><00:12:24.620><c> we</c><00:12:24.919><c> choose</c><00:12:25.580><c> principle.</c>

00:12:27.080 --> 00:12:29.179
It's<00:12:27.500><c> the</c><00:12:27.679><c> way</c><00:12:27.899><c> it</c><00:12:28.220><c> must</c><00:12:28.620><c> be.</c>

00:12:29.419 --> 00:12:32.440
Then<00:12:29.720><c> we</c><00:12:29.899><c> deal</c><00:12:30.100><c> with</c><00:12:30.340><c> all</c><00:12:30.500><c> the</c><00:12:30.720><c> people</c><00:12:30.899><c> issues</c><00:12:31.179><c> after</c><00:12:31.539><c> that.</c>

00:12:32.720 --> 00:12:36.179
But<00:12:32.980><c> we've</c><00:12:33.419><c> got</c><00:12:33.779><c> to</c><00:12:34.059><c> ensure</c><00:12:34.519><c> that</c><00:12:34.720><c> we</c><00:12:34.879><c> hold</c><00:12:35.259><c> on</c>

00:12:36.179 --> 00:12:38.799
to<00:12:36.500><c> the</c><00:12:36.700><c> truth</c><00:12:36.919><c> that</c><00:12:37.399><c> we</c><00:12:37.600><c> have</c><00:12:37.799><c> received.</c>

00:12:39.320 --> 00:12:40.580
And<00:12:39.460><c> Israel</c><00:12:39.720><c> wasn't</c><00:12:39.980><c> doing</c><00:12:40.240><c> that.</c>

00:12:40.740 --> 00:12:45.139
They<00:12:40.860><c> were</c><00:12:41.080><c> instructed</c><00:12:41.899><c> about</c><00:12:43.019><c> how</c><00:12:43.399><c> important</c><00:12:43.740><c> it</c><00:12:43.919><c> was</c><00:12:44.159><c> to</c><00:12:44.399><c> do</c><00:12:44.600><c> that,</c>

00:12:45.600 --> 00:12:46.559
but<00:12:45.720><c> they</c><00:12:45.899><c> weren't</c><00:12:46.059><c> doing</c><00:12:46.340><c> that.</c>

00:12:46.720 --> 00:12:49.240
And<00:12:46.980><c> thus,</c><00:12:47.980><c> in</c><00:12:48.120><c> Judges</c><00:12:48.500><c> chapter</c><00:12:48.860><c> two,</c>

00:12:49.419 --> 00:12:52.320
you've<00:12:49.639><c> got</c><00:12:49.759><c> a</c><00:12:49.940><c> generation</c><00:12:50.440><c> that</c><00:12:50.840><c> doesn't</c><00:12:51.200><c> know</c><00:12:51.519><c> Yahweh.</c>

00:12:52.759 --> 00:12:54.500
That<00:12:52.879><c> doesn't</c><00:12:53.120><c> know</c><00:12:53.279><c> Yahweh.</c>

00:12:55.299 --> 00:12:58.320
Now,<00:12:55.700><c> we</c><00:12:55.820><c> were</c><00:12:56.059><c> a</c><00:12:56.200><c> people</c><00:12:56.639><c> so</c><00:12:57.080><c> small,</c>

00:12:58.340 --> 00:13:00.559
and<00:12:58.419><c> we've</c><00:12:58.519><c> always</c><00:12:58.639><c> been</c><00:12:58.820><c> such</c><00:12:59.000><c> a</c><00:12:59.259><c> small</c><00:12:59.480><c> group,</c>

00:13:00.919 --> 00:13:03.779
blessed<00:13:01.440><c> with</c><00:13:01.639><c> some</c><00:13:01.840><c> of</c><00:13:01.940><c> the</c><00:13:01.980><c> most</c><00:13:02.360><c> amazing</c><00:13:03.179><c> writers</c>

00:13:03.779 --> 00:13:07.279
and<00:13:04.220><c> commentators</c><00:13:04.860><c> a</c><00:13:05.559><c> community</c><00:13:05.899><c> could</c><00:13:06.100><c> ever</c><00:13:06.360><c> have.</c>

00:13:08.000 --> 00:13:11.539
And<00:13:08.220><c> yet,</c><00:13:09.440><c> there</c><00:13:09.559><c> is</c><00:13:09.740><c> a</c><00:13:09.879><c> generation</c><00:13:10.279><c> coming</c><00:13:10.500><c> after</c><00:13:10.840><c> us</c>

00:13:11.539 --> 00:13:14.559
that<00:13:12.340><c> does</c><00:13:13.000><c> not</c><00:13:13.539><c> read.</c>

00:13:15.480 --> 00:13:19.899
How<00:13:15.940><c> is</c><00:13:16.480><c> a</c><00:13:16.879><c> community</c><00:13:17.460><c> that</c><00:13:17.659><c> is</c><00:13:18.120><c> founded</c><00:13:18.639><c> on,</c>

00:13:20.299 --> 00:13:26.100
whose<00:13:20.759><c> life</c><00:13:21.539><c> force</c><00:13:22.159><c> is</c><00:13:23.080><c> the</c><00:13:24.019><c> word</c><00:13:24.539><c> of</c><00:13:25.080><c> God,</c>

00:13:31.879 --> 00:13:35.039
And<00:13:31.980><c> so</c><00:13:32.139><c> somehow,</c><00:13:32.500><c> we</c><00:13:32.580><c> have</c><00:13:32.820><c> got</c><00:13:33.000><c> to</c><00:13:33.759><c> get</c><00:13:34.019><c> our</c><00:13:34.299><c> young</c><00:13:34.580><c> people</c>

00:13:59.620 --> 00:14:01.500
These<00:13:59.840><c> are</c><00:14:00.080><c> important</c><00:14:00.480><c> things.</c>

00:14:01.940 --> 00:14:04.039
The<00:14:02.039><c> other</c><00:14:02.159><c> thing</c><00:14:02.259><c> we</c><00:14:02.340><c> can</c><00:14:02.519><c> remind</c><00:14:02.820><c> our</c><00:14:02.980><c> young</c><00:14:03.159><c> people</c><00:14:03.399><c> of</c><00:14:03.519><c> is</c><00:14:03.740><c> this.</c>

00:14:04.379 --> 00:14:07.379
If<00:14:04.759><c> you</c><00:14:05.220><c> have</c><00:14:05.580><c> doubts</c><00:14:05.980><c> that</c><00:14:06.279><c> we</c><00:14:06.659><c> have</c><00:14:06.860><c> the</c><00:14:07.080><c> truth,</c>

00:14:19.159 --> 00:14:23.080
There<00:14:19.879><c> is</c><00:14:20.240><c> no</c><00:14:20.659><c> better</c><00:14:21.200><c> cure</c><00:14:21.559><c> for</c><00:14:21.899><c> doubt,</c>

00:14:33.539 --> 00:14:38.000
Because<00:14:33.779><c> as</c><00:14:34.419><c> we</c><00:14:36.240><c> go</c><00:14:36.840><c> into</c><00:14:37.279><c> it,</c>

00:14:38.179 --> 00:14:41.080
and<00:14:38.340><c> we</c><00:14:38.539><c> begin</c><00:14:38.720><c> to</c><00:14:39.019><c> see</c><00:14:39.120><c> these</c><00:14:39.539><c> incredible,</c>

00:14:45.480 --> 00:14:47.539
all<00:14:45.879><c> the</c><00:14:45.960><c> way</c><00:14:46.080><c> to</c><00:14:46.259><c> the</c><00:14:46.379><c> end</c><00:14:46.539><c> of</c><00:14:46.759><c> Revelation,</c>

00:14:48.519 --> 00:14:52.000
it<00:14:48.980><c> proves</c><00:14:49.440><c> to</c><00:14:49.700><c> us</c><00:14:50.379><c> that</c><00:14:50.659><c> it</c><00:14:50.820><c> is</c><00:14:51.059><c> true,</c>

00:14:52.100 --> 00:14:53.480
and<00:14:52.179><c> that</c><00:14:52.299><c> we</c><00:14:52.360><c> can</c><00:14:52.539><c> have</c><00:14:52.799><c> confidence</c><00:14:53.240><c> in</c><00:14:53.379><c> it,</c>

00:14:53.500 --> 00:14:57.779
because<00:14:53.740><c> it</c><00:14:54.000><c> is</c><00:14:54.460><c> an</c><00:14:54.539><c> altogether</c><00:14:55.500><c> miraculous</c><00:14:56.759><c> work.</c>

00:14:58.500 --> 00:15:01.600
But<00:14:58.700><c> you</c><00:14:58.799><c> don't</c><00:14:59.000><c> know</c><00:14:59.179><c> that</c><00:14:59.340><c> if</c><00:14:59.440><c> you're</c><00:14:59.639><c> not</c><00:15:00.039><c> studying</c><00:15:00.399><c> it.</c>

00:15:01.860 --> 00:15:05.620
So<00:15:02.100><c> brethren,</c><00:15:04.100><c> we</c><00:15:04.279><c> have</c><00:15:04.460><c> to</c><00:15:04.600><c> be</c><00:15:04.840><c> studying</c><00:15:05.080><c> our</c><00:15:05.379><c> Bibles.</c>

00:15:05.860 --> 00:15:07.659
How<00:15:06.039><c> many</c><00:15:06.379><c> times</c><00:15:06.799><c> do</c><00:15:06.960><c> people</c><00:15:07.200><c> say</c><00:15:07.460><c> it?</c>

00:15:07.679 --> 00:15:09.940
It's<00:15:08.080><c> true,</c><00:15:08.539><c> it's</c><00:15:08.879><c> true.</c>

00:15:10.159 --> 00:15:11.519
You<00:15:10.500><c> know</c><00:15:10.639><c> how</c><00:15:10.860><c> it</c><00:15:10.960><c> is</c><00:15:11.139><c> with</c><00:15:11.340><c> us.</c>

00:15:11.679 --> 00:15:13.360
Sometimes<00:15:12.100><c> we're</c><00:15:12.279><c> only</c><00:15:12.539><c> going</c><00:15:12.700><c> to</c><00:15:12.899><c> do</c><00:15:13.019><c> a</c><00:15:13.200><c> study</c>

00:15:13.360 --> 00:15:14.919
if<00:15:13.500><c> we</c><00:15:13.659><c> have</c><00:15:13.799><c> something</c><00:15:14.019><c> to</c><00:15:14.200><c> study</c><00:15:14.440><c> for,</c>

00:15:19.840 --> 00:15:22.759
Well,<00:15:20.639><c> we</c><00:15:20.980><c> need</c><00:15:21.139><c> to</c><00:15:21.259><c> do</c><00:15:21.340><c> more</c><00:15:21.580><c> than</c><00:15:21.799><c> that.</c>

00:15:23.379 --> 00:15:26.879
We<00:15:23.519><c> need</c><00:15:23.679><c> to</c><00:15:23.820><c> be</c><00:15:24.080><c> always</c><00:15:24.519><c> conducting</c><00:15:25.019><c> a</c><00:15:25.399><c> study</c><00:15:25.759><c> on</c><00:15:26.240><c> the</c><00:15:26.519><c> side</c>

00:15:26.879 --> 00:15:30.240
that<00:15:27.480><c> may</c><00:15:27.700><c> not</c><00:15:27.860><c> be</c><00:15:28.120><c> connected</c><00:15:28.340><c> to</c><00:15:28.559><c> a</c><00:15:28.720><c> talk</c><00:15:28.860><c> we</c><00:15:29.000><c> have</c><00:15:29.159><c> to</c><00:15:29.340><c> give.</c>

00:15:31.320 --> 00:15:36.200
And<00:15:31.480><c> choose</c><00:15:31.639><c> something</c><00:15:32.200><c> that</c><00:15:33.200><c> really</c><00:15:34.480><c> stretches</c><00:15:35.159><c> you.</c>

00:15:36.240 --> 00:15:37.159
Take<00:15:36.440><c> the</c><00:15:36.580><c> book</c><00:15:36.679><c> of</c><00:15:36.879><c> Romans.</c>

00:15:37.259 --> 00:15:40.879
Get<00:15:37.480><c> John</c><00:15:37.980><c> Carter's</c><00:15:39.539><c> commentary</c><00:15:40.100><c> on</c><00:15:40.580><c> Romans.</c>

00:15:41.019 --> 00:15:43.019
Look<00:15:41.440><c> at</c><00:15:41.899><c> articles</c><00:15:42.399><c> that</c><00:15:42.559><c> have</c><00:15:42.639><c> been</c><00:15:42.759><c> written</c>

Logos,<00:15:45.779><c> other</c><00:15:46.419><c> magazines.</c>

00:15:48.100 --> 00:15:52.039
And<00:15:48.360><c> really</c><00:15:48.759><c> start</c><00:15:49.340><c> working</c><00:15:49.740><c> it</c><00:15:50.179><c> through</c><00:15:50.440><c> on</c><00:15:50.899><c> the</c><00:15:51.139><c> side.</c>

00:15:53.299 --> 00:15:54.840
It's<00:15:53.539><c> a</c><00:15:53.679><c> wonderful</c><00:15:53.980><c> thing</c><00:15:54.220><c> for</c><00:15:54.419><c> us.</c>

00:15:55.240 --> 00:15:58.580
And<00:15:55.399><c> in</c><00:15:55.519><c> this</c><00:15:55.700><c> day</c><00:15:55.860><c> and</c><00:15:55.980><c> age,</c><00:15:56.259><c> it's</c><00:15:56.879><c> absolutely</c><00:15:57.399><c> essential.</c>

00:15:58.700 --> 00:16:00.519
So<00:15:58.940><c> it</c><00:15:59.080><c> wasn't</c><00:15:59.419><c> being</c><00:15:59.779><c> passed</c><00:16:00.159><c> on.</c>

00:16:00.840 --> 00:16:03.419
The<00:16:01.120><c> truth</c><00:16:01.500><c> was</c><00:16:02.039><c> not</c><00:16:02.320><c> being</c><00:16:02.600><c> passed</c><00:16:03.019><c> on.</c>

00:16:03.720 --> 00:16:06.240
Now<00:16:04.039><c> why</c><00:16:04.360><c> wouldn't</c><00:16:04.620><c> it</c><00:16:04.820><c> be</c><00:16:05.080><c> passed</c><00:16:05.340><c> on?</c>

00:16:06.379 --> 00:16:07.480
Why<00:16:06.580><c> wouldn't</c><00:16:06.779><c> it</c><00:16:06.940><c> be</c><00:16:07.139><c> passed</c><00:16:07.320><c> on?</c>

00:16:07.720 --> 00:16:10.720
Yeah,<00:16:07.940><c> young</c><00:16:08.059><c> people</c><00:16:08.320><c> had</c><00:16:08.580><c> wonderful</c><00:16:09.340><c> answers</c>

00:16:11.740 --> 00:16:15.399
in<00:16:12.399><c> the</c><00:16:13.059><c> teenage</c><00:16:13.379><c> class</c><00:16:13.879><c> to</c><00:16:14.200><c> that</c><00:16:14.419><c> question.</c>

00:16:16.240 --> 00:16:20.460
One<00:16:16.399><c> of</c><00:16:16.500><c> them</c><00:16:16.639><c> said,</c><00:16:18.480><c> well,</c><00:16:18.620><c> because</c><00:16:18.940><c> they</c><00:16:20.100><c> thought</c>

00:16:20.460 --> 00:16:22.399
they'd<00:16:20.879><c> done</c><00:16:21.159><c> good</c><00:16:21.500><c> enough.</c>

00:16:23.379 --> 00:16:24.759
What<00:16:23.559><c> an</c><00:16:23.820><c> answer.</c>

00:16:25.820 --> 00:16:28.000
Don't<00:16:26.059><c> we</c><00:16:26.279><c> feel</c><00:16:26.519><c> that</c><00:16:26.720><c> feeling</c><00:16:26.919><c> sometimes?</c>

00:16:28.500 --> 00:16:30.259
I've<00:16:28.860><c> done</c><00:16:29.019><c> enough</c><00:16:29.340><c> work.</c>

00:16:30.320 --> 00:16:31.879
I've<00:16:30.700><c> done</c><00:16:30.799><c> my</c><00:16:31.039><c> bit.</c>

00:16:32.039 --> 00:16:34.379
I've<00:16:32.379><c> put</c><00:16:32.519><c> in</c><00:16:32.720><c> my</c><00:16:33.419><c> hours.</c>

00:16:34.740 --> 00:16:38.320
So<00:16:34.980><c> I</c><00:16:35.200><c> don't</c><00:16:35.620><c> need</c><00:16:35.759><c> to</c><00:16:35.919><c> worry</c><00:16:36.039><c> so</c><00:16:36.259><c> much</c><00:16:36.419><c> about</c><00:16:37.059><c> study</c>

00:16:38.659 --> 00:16:44.820
and<00:16:39.179><c> the</c><00:16:39.259><c> reading</c><00:16:39.440><c> of</c><00:16:39.620><c> the</c><00:16:39.779><c> word</c><00:16:40.259><c> and</c><00:16:41.379><c> serving</c><00:16:41.919><c> in</c><00:16:43.659><c> the</c><00:16:43.860><c> community.</c>

00:16:45.019 --> 00:16:45.919
That's<00:16:45.279><c> a</c><00:16:45.340><c> good</c><00:16:45.460><c> answer.</c>

00:16:46.399 --> 00:16:47.940
They'd<00:16:46.740><c> done</c><00:16:46.840><c> good</c><00:16:47.100><c> enough.</c>

00:16:49.159 --> 00:16:54.659
Another<00:16:49.419><c> person</c><00:16:49.759><c> said,</c><00:16:50.919><c> well,</c><00:16:52.860><c> they</c><00:16:53.220><c> were</c><00:16:53.419><c> tired</c><00:16:53.639><c> of</c><00:16:53.899><c> fighting.</c>

00:16:56.320 --> 00:16:58.299
They<00:16:56.799><c> stopped</c><00:16:57.120><c> fighting</c><00:16:57.580><c> with</c><00:16:57.820><c> the</c><00:16:57.960><c> Canaanites</c>

00:16:58.299 --> 00:17:00.559
because<00:16:58.519><c> they</c><00:16:58.700><c> were</c><00:16:58.860><c> simply</c><00:16:59.139><c> tired</c><00:16:59.419><c> of</c><00:16:59.700><c> war.</c>

00:17:00.940 --> 00:17:01.779
They<00:17:01.080><c> were</c><00:17:01.220><c> fed</c><00:17:01.379><c> up.</c>

00:17:01.980 --> 00:17:03.080
Fight,<00:17:02.299><c> fight,</c><00:17:02.519><c> fight,</c><00:17:02.820><c> fight.</c>

00:17:03.259 --> 00:17:07.660
They<00:17:03.399><c> were</c><00:17:03.559><c> fed</c><00:17:03.779><c> up,</c><00:17:04.140><c> so</c><00:17:04.299><c> they</c><00:17:04.420><c> just</c><00:17:05.920><c> laid</c><00:17:06.119><c> down</c><00:17:06.380><c> their</c><00:17:06.640><c> arms.</c>

00:17:08.940 --> 00:17:13.519
That's<00:17:09.480><c> another</c><00:17:10.019><c> amazing</c><00:17:11.299><c> answer,</c><00:17:11.700><c> isn't</c><00:17:11.839><c> it?</c>

00:17:14.220 --> 00:17:15.920
And<00:17:14.359><c> so</c><00:17:14.519><c> sometimes</c><00:17:14.819><c> we</c><00:17:15.000><c> have</c><00:17:15.180><c> to</c><00:17:15.319><c> ask</c><00:17:15.539><c> ourselves</c>

00:17:15.920 --> 00:17:19.200
in<00:17:16.640><c> the</c><00:17:17.140><c> preservation</c><00:17:17.619><c> of</c><00:17:17.819><c> God's</c><00:17:18.299><c> truth,</c>

00:17:19.960 --> 00:17:21.720

00:17:21.720 --> 00:17:22.519
We<00:17:21.880><c> all</c><00:17:22.119><c> do.</c>

00:17:22.960 --> 00:17:24.720
I<00:17:23.079><c> mean,</c><00:17:23.180><c> I'm</c><00:17:23.299><c> from</c><00:17:23.480><c> Ontario,</c><00:17:24.099><c> and</c><00:17:24.220><c> if</c><00:17:24.299><c> there's</c><00:17:24.519><c> a</c><00:17:24.619><c> group</c>

00:17:24.720 --> 00:17:26.740
of<00:17:24.960><c> people</c><00:17:25.140><c> that</c><00:17:25.279><c> are</c><00:17:25.619><c> tired</c><00:17:25.900><c> right</c><00:17:26.240><c> now,</c>

00:17:27.019 --> 00:17:28.599
it's<00:17:27.740><c> us</c><00:17:28.000><c> in</c><00:17:28.180><c> Ontario.</c>

00:17:28.700 --> 00:17:30.960
We<00:17:29.079><c> are</c><00:17:29.700><c> exhausted.</c>

00:17:31.579 --> 00:17:33.599
But<00:17:31.819><c> you've</c><00:17:32.099><c> got</c><00:17:32.160><c> to</c><00:17:32.299><c> defend</c><00:17:32.500><c> the</c><00:17:32.740><c> truth.</c>

00:17:33.900 --> 00:17:35.920
You've<00:17:34.279><c> got</c><00:17:34.339><c> to</c><00:17:34.519><c> choose</c><00:17:34.680><c> principle.</c>

00:17:36.210 --> 00:17:37.420
And<00:17:36.480><c> sometimes</c><00:17:36.880><c> it's</c><00:17:37.099><c> not</c><00:17:37.259><c> all.</c>

00:17:37.480 --> 00:17:40.579
All<00:17:37.859><c> these</c><00:17:38.059><c> people</c><00:17:38.259><c> you</c><00:17:38.500><c> love,</c><00:17:39.400><c> and</c><00:17:39.579><c> it</c><00:17:39.839><c> breaks</c><00:17:40.180><c> your</c><00:17:40.440><c> heart,</c>

00:17:40.599 --> 00:17:44.619
but<00:17:40.740><c> you</c><00:17:41.000><c> have</c><00:17:41.500><c> to</c><00:17:41.839><c> choose</c><00:17:42.380><c> principle</c><00:17:42.980><c> first.</c>

00:17:45.700 --> 00:17:47.680
And<00:17:45.839><c> people</c><00:17:46.000><c> may</c><00:17:46.259><c> see</c><00:17:46.460><c> you</c><00:17:46.700><c> in</c><00:17:46.880><c> choosing</c><00:17:47.160><c> principle,</c>

00:17:47.980 --> 00:17:51.180
any<00:17:48.279><c> of</c><00:17:48.440><c> us,</c><00:17:49.539><c> as</c><00:17:49.920><c> extremists.</c>

00:17:51.400 --> 00:17:53.839
You're<00:17:51.720><c> always</c><00:17:52.079><c> an</c><00:17:52.440><c> extremist</c><00:17:52.759><c> when</c><00:17:52.900><c> you</c><00:17:53.099><c> take</c><00:17:53.240><c> a</c><00:17:53.579><c> stand</c>

00:17:53.839 --> 00:17:56.900
on<00:17:54.140><c> something</c><00:17:54.519><c> that</c><00:17:55.539><c> makes</c><00:17:55.759><c> people</c><00:17:56.099><c> feel</c><00:17:56.339><c> excluded</c>

00:17:56.900 --> 00:17:59.220
when<00:17:57.440><c> they</c><00:17:57.619><c> don't</c><00:17:57.819><c> want</c><00:17:58.019><c> to</c><00:17:58.160><c> take</c><00:17:58.299><c> a</c><00:17:58.480><c> stand.</c>

00:18:00.500 --> 00:18:02.720
And<00:18:00.640><c> there</c><00:18:00.779><c> are</c><00:18:01.079><c> times</c><00:18:01.440><c> when</c><00:18:01.859><c> people</c><00:18:02.240><c> would</c><00:18:02.500><c> rather</c>

00:18:02.720 --> 00:18:04.500
just<00:18:03.039><c> have</c><00:18:03.359><c> everyone</c><00:18:03.720><c> get</c><00:18:03.980><c> along</c><00:18:04.200><c> together.</c>

00:18:04.500 --> 00:18:06.619
That's<00:18:04.759><c> the</c><00:18:04.859><c> Canadian</c><00:18:05.200><c> psyche,</c><00:18:05.640><c> by</c><00:18:05.880><c> the</c><00:18:06.039><c> way.</c>

00:18:07.059 --> 00:18:10.440
Aussies<00:18:07.359><c> and</c><00:18:07.619><c> Kiwis</c><00:18:07.920><c> are</c><00:18:08.220><c> quite</c><00:18:08.380><c> happy</c><00:18:08.599><c> to</c><00:18:08.779><c> go</c><00:18:09.000><c> at</c><00:18:09.160><c> it,</c><00:18:09.960><c> right?</c>

00:18:10.900 --> 00:18:13.220
And<00:18:11.380><c> stand</c><00:18:11.559><c> their</c><00:18:11.819><c> ground</c><00:18:12.319><c> and</c><00:18:12.599><c> be</c><00:18:12.799><c> forthright.</c>

00:18:13.460 --> 00:18:15.440
Americans,<00:18:14.079><c> same</c><00:18:14.420><c> thing,</c><00:18:15.180><c> right?</c>

00:18:15.579 --> 00:18:16.700
Especially<00:18:15.980><c> those</c><00:18:16.299><c> of</c><00:18:16.420><c> you</c><00:18:16.519><c> that</c><00:18:16.640><c> are</c>

00:18:19.900 --> 00:18:21.460
I'm<00:18:20.380><c> going</c><00:18:20.500><c> to</c><00:18:20.619><c> do</c><00:18:20.740><c> what</c><00:18:20.900><c> I'm</c><00:18:21.160><c> going</c><00:18:21.319><c> to</c><00:18:21.420><c> do.</c>

00:18:21.460 --> 00:18:23.619
I<00:18:21.579><c> don't</c><00:18:21.680><c> care</c><00:18:21.839><c> what</c><00:18:21.980><c> you</c><00:18:22.299><c> think,</c><00:18:22.519><c> but</c><00:18:22.680><c> I'll</c><00:18:22.920><c> stay</c><00:18:23.079><c> right</c><00:18:23.339><c> here.</c>

00:18:23.720 --> 00:18:25.380
Oh,<00:18:23.900><c> you</c><00:18:24.019><c> don't</c><00:18:24.180><c> want</c><00:18:24.339><c> to</c><00:18:24.480><c> do</c><00:18:24.619><c> it?</c>

00:18:25.740 --> 00:18:28.759
Don't<00:18:26.000><c> use</c><00:18:26.299><c> trail</c><00:18:26.559><c> on</c><00:18:26.759><c> me,</c><00:18:27.059><c> I'll</c><00:18:27.359><c> bite</c><00:18:27.539><c> you.</c>

00:18:31.819 --> 00:18:34.440
This<00:18:32.299><c> gun</c><00:18:32.559><c> ain't</c><00:18:32.799><c> for</c><00:18:33.059><c> whittling,</c><00:18:33.339><c> you</c><00:18:33.579><c> know?</c>

00:18:35.480 --> 00:18:39.299
So<00:18:36.039><c> the</c><00:18:36.599><c> thing</c><00:18:36.819><c> is,</c><00:18:37.500><c> in</c><00:18:37.680><c> Canada,</c><00:18:38.579><c> we're</c><00:18:38.660><c> all</c><00:18:38.819><c> about</c><00:18:39.019><c> peace</c>

00:18:39.299 --> 00:18:41.359
and<00:18:39.539><c> everybody</c><00:18:39.779><c> getting</c><00:18:40.019><c> along</c><00:18:40.299><c> together.</c>

00:18:42.079 --> 00:18:44.019
And<00:18:42.279><c> if</c><00:18:42.359><c> there's</c><00:18:42.599><c> a</c><00:18:42.759><c> center</c><00:18:43.000><c> of</c><00:18:43.119><c> that,</c><00:18:43.319><c> it's</c><00:18:43.420><c> Ontario,</c>

00:18:44.380 --> 00:18:47.680
which<00:18:44.519><c> is</c><00:18:44.720><c> probably</c><00:18:45.000><c> the</c><00:18:45.240><c> most</c><00:18:45.539><c> multicultural</c><00:18:46.779><c> province</c>

00:18:50.240 --> 00:18:51.960
And<00:18:50.339><c> so</c><00:18:50.500><c> everybody</c><00:18:50.880><c> just</c><00:18:51.259><c> gets</c><00:18:51.480><c> used</c><00:18:51.779><c> to</c>

00:18:51.960 --> 00:18:53.799
getting<00:18:52.140><c> along</c><00:18:52.400><c> with</c><00:18:52.640><c> everyone</c><00:18:52.859><c> else.</c>

00:18:54.160 --> 00:18:57.400
And<00:18:54.339><c> remember,</c><00:18:54.819><c> too,</c><00:18:56.099><c> leadership</c><00:18:56.480><c> is</c><00:18:56.859><c> transitioning</c>

00:18:57.400 --> 00:19:00.680
from<00:18:57.900><c> the</c><00:18:58.119><c> baby</c><00:18:58.339><c> boom</c><00:18:58.480><c> generation,</c><00:18:59.059><c> which</c><00:18:59.180><c> was</c><00:18:59.480><c> all</c><00:18:59.880><c> about</c><00:19:00.259><c> fighting</c>

00:19:00.680 --> 00:19:03.880
and<00:19:01.039><c> standing</c><00:19:01.279><c> up</c><00:19:01.519><c> for</c><00:19:01.700><c> itself</c><00:19:02.160><c> in</c><00:19:02.680><c> that</c><00:19:02.980><c> massive</c><00:19:03.380><c> cohort,</c>

00:19:03.880 --> 00:19:07.779
transitioning<00:19:04.799><c> into</c><00:19:05.319><c> the</c><00:19:05.880><c> Generation</c><00:19:06.359><c> X,</c>

00:19:07.920 --> 00:19:10.420
which<00:19:07.940><c> is</c><00:19:08.099><c> all</c><00:19:08.259><c> about</c><00:19:08.420><c> everybody</c><00:19:08.740><c> getting</c><00:19:09.000><c> along</c><00:19:09.279><c> together.</c>

00:19:10.940 --> 00:19:16.579
So<00:19:11.119><c> there's</c><00:19:11.539><c> a</c><00:19:12.420><c> national,</c><00:19:14.200><c> as</c><00:19:14.500><c> well</c><00:19:14.759><c> as</c><00:19:15.000><c> a</c><00:19:15.279><c> generational</c><00:19:15.960><c> tendency</c>

00:19:16.579 --> 00:19:19.460
in<00:19:16.779><c> the</c><00:19:16.960><c> direction</c><00:19:17.420><c> of</c><00:19:18.259><c> peace.</c>

00:19:19.519 --> 00:19:21.740
Let's<00:19:19.839><c> just</c><00:19:20.160><c> find</c><00:19:20.400><c> a</c><00:19:20.480><c> way</c><00:19:20.539><c> to</c><00:19:20.700><c> get</c><00:19:20.859><c> along.</c>

00:19:22.339 --> 00:19:25.279
And<00:19:22.539><c> there</c><00:19:22.680><c> are</c><00:19:22.799><c> times</c><00:19:23.000><c> when</c><00:19:23.160><c> that's</c><00:19:23.400><c> not</c><00:19:23.619><c> going</c><00:19:23.759><c> to</c><00:19:23.920><c> work</c><00:19:24.059><c> for</c><00:19:24.259><c> us.</c>

00:19:26.140 --> 00:19:30.099
And<00:19:26.259><c> so</c><00:19:26.339><c> we've</c><00:19:26.619><c> got</c><00:19:26.920><c> to</c><00:19:27.680><c> make</c><00:19:27.940><c> sure</c><00:19:28.500><c> that</c><00:19:29.359><c> we</c><00:19:29.619><c> are</c><00:19:29.720><c> secure</c>

00:19:30.099 --> 00:19:32.960
as<00:19:30.380><c> far</c><00:19:30.539><c> as</c><00:19:30.700><c> our</c><00:19:31.099><c> principles</c><00:19:31.599><c> are</c><00:19:32.000><c> concerned.</c>

00:19:33.119 --> 00:19:35.640

00:22:20.900 --> 00:22:24.920
the<00:22:21.299><c> struggles</c><00:22:21.539><c> we</c><00:22:21.859><c> had</c><00:22:22.039><c> as</c><00:22:22.240><c> a</c><00:22:22.359><c> generation</c><00:22:22.700><c> that</c><00:22:23.000><c> still</c><00:22:23.160><c> do</c><00:22:23.779><c> today,</c>

00:22:24.960 --> 00:22:26.480
one<00:22:25.180><c> foot</c><00:22:25.359><c> planted</c><00:22:25.700><c> in</c><00:22:25.880><c> the</c><00:22:26.099><c> world,</c>

00:22:26.819 --> 00:22:29.200
and<00:22:26.940><c> all</c><00:22:27.059><c> it</c><00:22:27.160><c> has</c><00:22:27.319><c> to</c><00:22:27.519><c> offer</c><00:22:27.740><c> one</c><00:22:28.019><c> foot</c><00:22:28.259><c> planted</c><00:22:28.559><c> in</c><00:22:28.759><c> the</c><00:22:28.960><c> truth.</c>

00:22:29.559 --> 00:22:31.920
So<00:22:29.720><c> that's</c><00:22:30.000><c> exactly</c><00:22:30.299><c> what</c><00:22:30.480><c> these</c><00:22:30.740><c> people</c><00:22:30.940><c> were</c><00:22:31.160><c> doing.</c>

00:22:31.940 --> 00:22:33.259
It's<00:22:32.160><c> exactly</c><00:22:32.539><c> what</c><00:22:32.680><c> they</c><00:22:32.839><c> were</c><00:22:32.960><c> doing.</c>

00:22:33.640 --> 00:22:36.079
Because<00:22:34.000><c> in</c><00:22:34.799><c> addition</c><00:22:35.180><c> to</c><00:22:35.400><c> having</c><00:22:35.579><c> these</c><00:22:35.859><c> gods,</c>

00:22:36.079 --> 00:22:39.599
they<00:22:36.259><c> might</c><00:22:36.500><c> have</c><00:22:36.759><c> Yahweh</c><00:22:37.259><c> as</c><00:22:37.579><c> just</c><00:22:37.859><c> one</c><00:22:38.019><c> of</c><00:22:38.160><c> the</c><00:22:38.380><c> deities</c>

00:22:39.660 --> 00:22:41.539
amongst<00:22:40.140><c> all</c><00:22:40.400><c> these</c><00:22:40.599><c> others.</c>

00:22:42.720 --> 00:22:46.099
But<00:22:42.900><c> in</c><00:22:43.059><c> so</c><00:22:43.220><c> doing,</c><00:22:43.539><c> they</c><00:22:43.599><c> had</c><00:22:43.819><c> forsaken</c><00:22:44.319><c> him,</c><00:22:45.339><c> forsaken</c><00:22:45.759><c> him.</c>

00:22:46.559 --> 00:22:48.380
So<00:22:46.740><c> God</c><00:22:46.940><c> would</c><00:22:47.119><c> bring</c><00:22:47.259><c> nations</c><00:22:47.579><c> against</c><00:22:48.019><c> them,</c>

00:22:48.380 --> 00:22:50.819
and<00:22:48.819><c> they</c><00:22:48.920><c> would</c><00:22:49.180><c> be</c><00:22:49.660><c> harshly</c><00:22:50.299><c> disciplined</c>

00:22:50.819 --> 00:22:52.920
under<00:22:51.539><c> the</c><00:22:51.819><c> heel</c><00:22:52.119><c> of</c><00:22:52.380><c> these</c><00:22:52.559><c> nations.</c>

00:22:53.200 --> 00:22:55.160
Then<00:22:53.339><c> they</c><00:22:53.420><c> would</c><00:22:53.819><c> cry</c><00:22:54.160><c> out</c><00:22:54.440><c> to</c><00:22:54.640><c> God.</c>

00:22:55.539 --> 00:22:58.240
God<00:22:55.940><c> would</c><00:22:56.299><c> raise</c><00:22:56.579><c> up</c><00:22:56.839><c> a</c><00:22:57.000><c> judge,</c><00:22:57.440><c> a</c><00:22:57.640><c> deliverer,</c>

00:22:58.500 --> 00:23:01.680
who<00:22:58.640><c> would</c><00:22:59.339><c> judge</c><00:23:00.019><c> the</c><00:23:00.619><c> nation,</c>

00:23:01.920 --> 00:23:04.700
deliver<00:23:02.180><c> them</c><00:23:02.460><c> from</c><00:23:02.720><c> the</c><00:23:03.119><c> foreign</c><00:23:03.559><c> dominating</c><00:23:04.160><c> power,</c>

00:23:05.079 --> 00:23:07.240
and<00:23:05.180><c> during</c><00:23:05.500><c> the</c><00:23:05.819><c> lifetime</c><00:23:06.160><c> of</c><00:23:06.380><c> that</c><00:23:06.619><c> individual,</c>

00:23:07.579 --> 00:23:10.480
Israel<00:23:08.119><c> would</c><00:23:08.460><c> stay</c><00:23:09.279><c> faithful</c><00:23:09.900><c> to</c><00:23:10.119><c> God.</c>

00:23:10.940 --> 00:23:12.519
And<00:23:11.119><c> then</c><00:23:11.200><c> when</c><00:23:11.299><c> he</c><00:23:11.480><c> died,</c>

00:23:13.039 --> 00:23:16.460
things<00:23:13.279><c> would</c><00:23:13.640><c> cycle</c><00:23:13.940><c> back</c><00:23:14.279><c> into</c><00:23:14.599><c> that</c><00:23:15.299><c> downward</c><00:23:15.819><c> spiral</c>

00:23:16.460 --> 00:23:19.619
that<00:23:17.039><c> shows</c><00:23:17.599><c> itself</c><00:23:17.980><c> throughout</c><00:23:18.259><c> the</c><00:23:18.380><c> book</c><00:23:18.500><c> of</c><00:23:18.660><c> the</c><00:23:18.799><c> judges.</c>

00:23:19.680 --> 00:23:22.119
And<00:23:19.779><c> when</c><00:23:19.880><c> we</c><00:23:19.960><c> get</c><00:23:20.140><c> to</c><00:23:20.279><c> chapter</c><00:23:20.559><c> 13,</c>

00:23:23.920 --> 00:23:26.400
where<00:23:24.480><c> Samson's</c><00:23:25.039><c> story</c><00:23:25.299><c> begins,</c>

00:23:26.960 --> 00:23:28.460
it<00:23:27.079><c> says</c><00:23:27.359><c> the</c><00:23:27.559><c> following.</c>

00:23:30.019 --> 00:23:33.619
And<00:23:30.160><c> the</c><00:23:30.259><c> children</c><00:23:30.680><c> of</c><00:23:30.859><c> Israel</c><00:23:31.460><c> did</c><00:23:31.960><c> evil</c><00:23:32.299><c> again</c>

00:23:33.579 --> 00:23:34.660
at<00:23:33.859><c> the</c><00:23:34.019><c> sight</c><00:23:34.180><c> of</c><00:23:34.440><c> Yahweh,</c>

00:23:34.700 --> 00:23:38.539
and<00:23:34.839><c> Yahweh</c><00:23:35.079><c> delivered</c><00:23:35.319><c> them</c><00:23:35.720><c> into</c><00:23:36.000><c> the</c><00:23:36.180><c> hands</c><00:23:36.680><c> of</c><00:23:36.880><c> the</c><00:23:37.160><c> Philistines.</c>

00:23:39.440 --> 00:23:41.019
40<00:23:39.839><c> years.</c>

00:23:41.420 --> 00:23:43.279
And<00:23:41.619><c> then</c><00:23:41.759><c> the</c><00:23:41.960><c> story</c><00:23:42.500><c> goes</c><00:23:42.740><c> on.</c>

00:23:43.279 --> 00:23:48.000
But<00:23:43.819><c> there's</c><00:23:44.420><c> something</c><00:23:44.799><c> missing</c><00:23:45.759><c> from</c><00:23:46.380><c> this</c><00:23:46.859><c> story.</c>

00:23:48.579 --> 00:23:51.079
There's<00:23:48.720><c> something</c><00:23:48.839><c> missing</c><00:23:49.079><c> from</c><00:23:49.200><c> this</c><00:23:49.380><c> story.</c>

00:23:52.900 --> 00:23:54.059
Nowhere<00:23:53.119><c> in</c><00:23:53.259><c> the</c><00:23:53.420><c> story</c><00:23:53.579><c> does</c><00:23:53.759><c> it</c><00:23:53.940><c> say</c>

00:23:54.059 --> 00:23:56.500
that<00:23:54.339><c> Israel</c><00:23:54.680><c> cried</c><00:23:55.039><c> out</c><00:23:55.279><c> to</c><00:23:55.539><c> Yahweh.</c>

00:23:58.480 --> 00:24:00.160
Nowhere<00:23:58.779><c> in</c><00:23:58.960><c> this</c><00:23:59.200><c> story.</c>

00:24:02.279 --> 00:24:04.460
And<00:24:02.460><c> then</c><00:24:02.619><c> later</c><00:24:02.859><c> on</c><00:24:03.200><c> in</c><00:24:03.900><c> the</c><00:24:04.160><c> narrative,</c>

00:24:04.519 --> 00:24:07.140
in<00:24:04.680><c> the</c><00:24:04.920><c> story</c><00:24:05.160><c> of</c><00:24:05.359><c> the</c><00:24:05.440><c> life</c><00:24:05.619><c> of</c><00:24:05.859><c> Samson,</c>

00:24:08.859 --> 00:24:10.599
the<00:24:09.019><c> writer</c><00:24:09.180><c> will</c><00:24:09.400><c> talk</c><00:24:09.579><c> about</c><00:24:09.799><c> the</c><00:24:09.980><c> fact</c>

00:24:10.819 --> 00:24:15.000
that<00:24:11.180><c> he</c><00:24:11.519><c> sought</c><00:24:12.400><c> an</c><00:24:12.799><c> occasion</c><00:24:13.200><c> against</c><00:24:13.660><c> the</c><00:24:13.880><c> Philistines.</c>

00:24:15.539 --> 00:24:17.480
Of<00:24:15.839><c> course,</c><00:24:16.160><c> there's</c><00:24:16.440><c> debates</c><00:24:16.839><c> and</c><00:24:17.119><c> discussions</c>

00:24:17.480 --> 00:24:18.740
as<00:24:17.660><c> if</c><00:24:17.859><c> Samson</c><00:24:18.160><c> is</c><00:24:18.380><c> a</c><00:24:18.519><c> god.</c>

00:24:19.240 --> 00:24:20.700
God<00:24:19.779><c> sought</c><00:24:20.099><c> an</c><00:24:20.319><c> occasion.</c>

00:24:21.039 --> 00:24:22.059
Why?

00:24:22.200 --> 00:24:27.920
God<00:24:22.920><c> sought</c><00:24:23.400><c> conflict</c><00:24:24.380><c> between</c><00:24:25.619><c> the</c><00:24:26.099><c> Jews</c><00:24:26.460><c> and</c><00:24:26.980><c> the</c><00:24:27.200><c> Philistines.</c>

00:24:28.359 --> 00:24:31.099
God<00:24:28.660><c> sought</c><00:24:28.960><c> it,</c><00:24:29.359><c> to</c><00:24:29.680><c> shake</c><00:24:29.940><c> things</c><00:24:30.220><c> up.</c>

00:24:31.140 --> 00:24:34.200
Why<00:24:31.599><c> would</c><00:24:31.839><c> he</c><00:24:32.240><c> seek</c><00:24:32.559><c> something</c><00:24:32.920><c> like</c><00:24:33.279><c> that?</c>

00:24:35.920 --> 00:24:40.579
Because<00:24:36.799><c> the</c><00:24:37.180><c> Jews</c><00:24:37.519><c> had</c><00:24:37.900><c> accommodated</c><00:24:38.500><c> themselves,</c><00:24:39.640><c> too.</c>

00:24:41.359 --> 00:24:46.599
Accepted<00:24:42.240><c> and</c><00:24:43.119><c> made</c><00:24:43.380><c> peace</c><00:24:44.359><c> with</c><00:24:45.319><c> the</c><00:24:45.500><c> Philistines.</c>

00:24:47.440 --> 00:24:48.740
That's<00:24:47.839><c> why.</c>

00:24:49.759 --> 00:24:54.039
And<00:24:49.859><c> as</c><00:24:50.000><c> a</c><00:24:50.099><c> consequence,</c><00:24:50.880><c> they,</c><00:24:51.640><c> the</c><00:24:51.960><c> name</c><00:24:52.319><c> bearers</c><00:24:52.759><c> of</c><00:24:53.000><c> Yahweh,</c>

00:24:54.380 --> 00:24:57.299
the<00:24:54.700><c> word</c><00:24:55.140><c> protectors</c><00:24:55.940><c> of</c><00:24:56.460><c> Yahweh,</c>

00:24:57.700 --> 00:25:00.240
ran<00:24:57.819><c> the</c><00:24:58.039><c> risk</c><00:24:58.539><c> of</c><00:24:59.059><c> losing</c><00:24:59.299><c> everything.</c>

00:25:01.000 --> 00:25:03.500
So<00:25:01.319><c> God</c><00:25:01.880><c> brings</c><00:25:02.519><c> about</c><00:25:02.880><c> conflict.</c>

00:25:03.500 --> 00:25:07.839
When<00:25:04.039><c> he</c><00:25:04.180><c> raises</c><00:25:04.460><c> up</c><00:25:04.759><c> Samson</c><00:25:05.400><c> and</c><00:25:06.720><c> he</c><00:25:06.880><c> works</c><00:25:07.140><c> with</c><00:25:07.480><c> Samson</c>

00:25:07.839 --> 00:25:12.119
in<00:25:08.039><c> all</c><00:25:08.420><c> of</c><00:25:08.720><c> Samson's</c><00:25:10.079><c> wrong</c><00:25:10.400><c>-headed</c><00:25:10.779><c> ways,</c>

00:25:12.920 --> 00:25:16.000
he's<00:25:13.279><c> deliberately</c><00:25:13.859><c> seeking</c><00:25:14.220><c> conflict</c><00:25:14.700><c> between</c><00:25:15.059><c> his</c><00:25:15.359><c> people</c>

00:25:16.000 --> 00:25:20.140

All<00:28:33.960><c> kinds</c><00:28:34.220><c> of</c><00:28:34.400><c> bloodshed</c><00:28:34.700><c> once</c><00:28:35.039><c> again.</c>

00:28:36.839 --> 00:28:42.160

00:28:42.160 --> 00:28:46.740
was<00:28:42.619><c> so</c><00:28:43.279><c> great</c><00:28:43.720><c> that</c><00:28:45.039><c> Egypt</c><00:28:45.359><c> had</c><00:28:45.599><c> to</c><00:28:45.740><c> come</c><00:28:45.880><c> to</c><00:28:46.119><c> terms</c><00:28:46.400><c> with</c><00:28:46.619><c> them.</c>

00:28:46.740 --> 00:28:48.380
They<00:28:46.920><c> knew</c><00:28:47.059><c> they</c><00:28:47.180><c> couldn't</c><00:28:47.440><c> wipe</c><00:28:47.660><c> them</c><00:28:47.839><c> out</c><00:28:47.980><c> completely.</c>

00:28:48.720 --> 00:28:50.240
There<00:28:48.839><c> were</c><00:28:49.000><c> too</c><00:28:49.220><c> many</c><00:28:49.500><c> of</c><00:28:49.839><c> them</c>

00:28:50.240 --> 00:28:52.839

00:28:53.759 --> 00:28:59.039
And<00:28:54.140><c> so</c><00:28:54.299><c> what</c><00:28:55.180><c> happened</c><00:28:55.980><c> was</c><00:28:56.680><c> a</c><00:28:57.099><c> kind</c><00:28:57.279><c> of</c><00:28:57.460><c> a</c><00:28:57.640><c> peace</c><00:28:57.960><c> settlement.</c>

00:28:59.839 --> 00:29:02.240
The<00:29:00.079><c> Philistines</c><00:29:00.859><c> were</c><00:29:01.380><c> allowed</c><00:29:01.700><c> to</c><00:29:02.019><c> live</c>

00:29:12.339 --> 00:29:16.240
There<00:29:12.460><c> were</c><00:29:12.640><c> people</c><00:29:13.200><c> that</c><00:29:13.680><c> were</c><00:29:14.079><c> aggressive</c><00:29:14.740><c> in</c><00:29:15.000><c> the</c><00:29:15.380><c> extreme.</c>

00:29:16.940 --> 00:29:21.279
And<00:29:17.099><c> the</c><00:29:17.579><c> stories</c><00:29:17.900><c> of</c><00:29:18.180><c> the</c><00:29:18.740><c> destructive</c><00:29:19.119><c> capacity</c><00:29:19.700><c> of</c><00:29:19.880><c> those</c><00:29:20.019><c> people</c>

00:29:21.029 --> 00:29:24.200
are<00:29:21.380><c> quite</c><00:29:22.059><c> shocking,</c><00:29:23.119><c> the</c><00:29:23.299><c> sorts</c><00:29:23.460><c> of</c><00:29:23.599><c> things</c><00:29:23.700><c> they</c><00:29:23.940><c> did.</c>

00:29:24.420 --> 00:29:27.940
Only<00:29:24.579><c> the</c><00:29:24.859><c> Assyrians</c><00:29:25.319><c> would</c><00:29:25.940><c> have</c><00:29:26.279><c> been</c><00:29:26.980><c> equivalent</c><00:29:27.559><c> to</c><00:29:27.779><c> them</c>

00:29:27.940 --> 00:29:31.240
in<00:29:28.400><c> the</c><00:29:29.539><c> horrors</c><00:29:29.759><c> that</c><00:29:29.940><c> they</c><00:29:30.220><c> inflicted</c><00:29:30.599><c> upon</c><00:29:30.799><c> the</c><00:29:31.039><c> peoples</c>

00:29:31.240 --> 00:29:32.539
that<00:29:31.400><c> they</c><00:29:31.640><c> conquered.</c>

00:29:33.240 --> 00:29:38.660
The<00:29:33.480><c> Philistines</c><00:29:34.019><c> had</c><00:29:34.480><c> something</c><00:29:35.180><c> that</c><00:29:36.400><c> they</c><00:29:37.140><c> jealously</c><00:29:37.619><c> protected.</c>

00:29:39.119 --> 00:29:41.960
And<00:29:39.299><c> it</c><00:29:39.400><c> had</c><00:29:39.579><c> to</c><00:29:39.740><c> do</c><00:29:39.819><c> with</c><00:29:39.960><c> their</c><00:29:40.259><c> metallurgical</c><00:29:41.079><c> skills,</c>

00:29:49.599 --> 00:29:54.579
And<00:29:49.920><c> that</c><00:29:50.140><c> gave</c><00:29:50.440><c> them</c><00:29:51.039><c> a</c><00:29:51.720><c> dominating</c><00:29:52.460><c> ability</c><00:29:53.640><c> and</c><00:29:54.039><c> impact</c>

00:29:54.579 --> 00:29:58.799
on<00:29:55.180><c> the</c><00:29:55.460><c> area</c><00:29:55.839><c> that</c><00:29:56.000><c> they</c><00:29:56.220><c> found</c><00:29:56.420><c> themselves</c><00:29:56.880><c> in</c><00:29:57.279><c> around</c><00:29:57.720><c> the</c><00:29:57.940><c> Jews.</c>

00:29:59.079 --> 00:30:02.619
And<00:29:59.160><c> so</c><00:29:59.259><c> the</c><00:29:59.400><c> Jews</c><00:29:59.619><c> saw</c><00:30:00.039><c> this</c><00:30:00.259><c> people,</c><00:30:01.380><c> experienced</c><00:30:01.799><c> this</c><00:30:02.039><c> people,</c>

00:30:03.099 --> 00:30:05.299
and<00:30:03.220><c> felt</c><00:30:03.460><c> they</c><00:30:03.920><c> could</c><00:30:04.240><c> not</c><00:30:04.519><c> vanquish</c><00:30:05.160><c> them.</c>

00:30:05.319 --> 00:30:08.539
They<00:30:05.460><c> couldn't</c><00:30:06.099><c> fight</c><00:30:06.559><c> them</c><00:30:06.720><c> and</c><00:30:07.099><c> conquer</c><00:30:07.519><c> them,</c>

00:30:09.099 --> 00:30:12.799
not<00:30:09.400><c> taking</c><00:30:09.640><c> into</c><00:30:09.920><c> consideration</c><00:30:10.579><c> Yahweh,</c><00:30:11.200><c> their</c><00:30:11.339><c> God,</c><00:30:11.660><c> of</c><00:30:11.920><c> course.</c>

00:30:13.079 --> 00:30:15.039
And<00:30:13.400><c> so</c><00:30:13.539><c> they</c><00:30:13.680><c> came</c><00:30:13.900><c> to</c><00:30:14.119><c> terms</c><00:30:14.400><c> with</c><00:30:14.660><c> them.</c>

00:30:15.380 --> 00:30:18.200
And<00:30:15.539><c> there's</c><00:30:15.700><c> a</c><00:30:15.819><c> kind</c><00:30:15.940><c> of</c><00:30:16.319><c> peace</c><00:30:16.740><c> that</c><00:30:17.160><c> they</c><00:30:17.380><c> have</c><00:30:17.559><c> with</c><00:30:17.839><c> them.</c>

00:30:18.200 --> 00:30:19.660
And<00:30:18.640><c> we</c><00:30:18.759><c> know</c><00:30:18.980><c> that</c><00:30:19.180><c> that's</c><00:30:19.420><c> the</c><00:30:19.500><c> case</c>

00:30:28.859 --> 00:30:31.819

00:30:32.059 --> 00:30:35.380
Don't<00:30:32.279><c> you</c><00:30:32.460><c> know</c><00:30:32.720><c> that</c><00:30:32.980><c> the</c><00:30:33.559><c> Philistines</c><00:30:33.980><c> rule</c><00:30:34.200><c> over</c><00:30:34.440><c> us?</c>

00:30:35.640 --> 00:30:37.380
So<00:30:36.160><c> they're</c><00:30:36.319><c> all</c><00:30:36.500><c> about</c><00:30:36.759><c> peace.</c>

They're<00:30:37.740><c> all</c><00:30:37.920><c> about</c><00:30:38.099><c> everybody</c><00:30:38.500><c> getting</c><00:30:38.819><c> along</c><00:30:39.180><c> together.</c>

00:30:40.279 --> 00:30:43.599
They're<00:30:40.519><c> all</c><00:30:40.740><c> about</c><00:30:41.019><c> not</c><00:30:41.319><c> taking</c><00:30:41.640><c> too</c><00:30:41.900><c> firm</c><00:30:42.140><c> a</c><00:30:42.319><c> stand</c><00:30:42.480><c> on</c><00:30:42.740><c> anything.</c>

00:30:49.400 --> 00:30:50.839
God<00:30:49.680><c> brings</c><00:30:49.960><c> the</c><00:30:50.220><c> Philistines,</c>

00:30:51.119 --> 00:30:54.220
but<00:30:51.180><c> there's</c><00:30:51.460><c> an</c><00:30:51.859><c> absence</c><00:30:52.740><c> of</c><00:30:53.640><c> crying</c><00:30:53.880><c> out</c>

00:30:58.440 --> 00:31:03.240
And<00:30:58.660><c> so</c><00:30:58.779><c> it</c><00:30:58.940><c> says,</c><00:30:59.619><c> there</c><00:30:59.660><c> was</c><00:30:59.880><c> a</c><00:31:00.039><c> certain</c><00:31:00.240><c> man</c><00:31:00.500><c> of</c><00:31:00.859><c> Zorah,</c><00:31:02.119><c> of</c><00:31:02.380><c> Zorah.</c>

00:31:03.539 --> 00:31:06.859

Yet<00:35:18.960><c> Samson</c><00:35:20.199><c> seems</c><00:35:20.480><c> to</c><00:35:20.619><c> be</c><00:35:20.780><c> almost</c><00:35:21.019><c> a</c><00:35:21.300><c> caricature</c>

00:35:22.739 --> 00:35:26.900
of<00:35:23.380><c> the</c><00:35:23.599><c> Nazarite</c><00:35:24.280><c> and</c><00:35:24.820><c> what</c><00:35:24.940><c> a</c><00:35:25.139><c> Nazarite</c><00:35:25.460><c> should</c><00:35:25.679><c> live</c><00:35:25.840><c> like.</c>

00:35:27.000 --> 00:35:30.860
And<00:35:27.199><c> we'll</c><00:35:28.119><c> talk</c><00:35:28.440><c> about</c><00:35:28.760><c> why</c><00:35:29.079><c> that</c><00:35:29.380><c> might</c><00:35:29.559><c> be</c><00:35:29.800><c> the</c><00:35:29.940><c> case</c>

00:35:30.920 --> 00:35:33.519

00:35:33.619 --> 00:35:34.900
But<00:35:33.820><c> just</c><00:35:33.980><c> keep</c><00:35:34.119><c> that</c><00:35:34.380><c> in</c><00:35:34.539><c> mind.</c>

00:35:35.260 --> 00:35:40.300
How<00:35:35.500><c> is</c><00:35:35.639><c> it</c><00:35:35.739><c> that</c><00:35:35.820><c> he</c><00:35:35.940><c> doesn't</c><00:35:36.159><c> seem</c><00:35:36.360><c> to</c><00:35:36.739><c> fit</c><00:35:37.119><c> this</c><00:35:38.539><c> whole</c><00:35:39.179><c> model,</c>

00:35:44.760 --> 00:35:46.559
His<00:35:44.960><c> mother</c><00:35:45.500><c> is</c><00:35:46.019><c> being</c><00:35:46.300><c> told</c>

00:36:38.500 --> 00:36:41.500
Now<00:36:38.679><c> sometimes,</c><00:36:40.239><c> you</c><00:36:40.900><c> have</c><00:36:41.139><c> children</c>

00:36:41.500 --> 00:36:43.460
and<00:36:41.699><c> nobody</c><00:36:41.940><c> gives</c><00:36:42.159><c> you</c><00:36:42.420><c> a</c><00:36:42.559><c> manual.</c>

00:36:43.500 --> 00:36:44.780
There's<00:36:43.760><c> no</c><00:36:43.920><c> guarantee</c><00:36:44.340><c> that</c><00:36:44.579><c> says,</c>

00:36:44.820 --> 00:36:47.079
well,<00:36:45.000><c> if</c><00:36:45.179><c> this</c><00:36:45.440><c> child</c><00:36:45.639><c> doesn't</c><00:36:45.880><c> work</c><00:36:46.159><c> out</c><00:36:46.300><c> in</c><00:36:46.440><c> the</c><00:36:46.599><c> first</c><00:36:46.860><c> year,</c>

00:36:47.099 --> 00:36:49.139
you<00:36:47.260><c> can</c><00:36:47.500><c> send</c><00:36:47.639><c> them</c><00:36:47.820><c> back</c><00:36:47.960><c> to</c><00:36:48.079><c> the</c><00:36:48.260><c> factory.</c>

00:36:49.320 --> 00:36:51.280
There's<00:36:49.559><c> nothing</c><00:36:49.719><c> like</c><00:36:50.000><c> that</c><00:36:50.179><c> at</c><00:36:50.380><c> all.</c>

00:36:52.159 --> 00:36:55.599
And<00:36:52.159><c> we</c><00:36:52.639><c> sometimes,</c><00:36:53.500><c> in</c><00:36:53.639><c> the</c><00:36:53.940><c> cocky,</c><00:36:54.480><c> self</c><00:36:54.639><c>-assured,</c><00:36:55.599><c> young,</c>

00:36:58.059 --> 00:36:59.500
we<00:36:58.139><c> think</c><00:36:58.300><c> we</c><00:36:58.420><c> know</c><00:36:58.559><c> what</c><00:36:58.679><c> we're</c><00:36:58.860><c> doing</c><00:36:59.019><c> in</c><00:36:59.159><c> the</c><00:36:59.300><c> beginning,</c>

00:36:59.699 --> 00:37:01.300
and<00:36:59.719><c> then</c><00:36:59.860><c> we</c><00:37:00.000><c> learn</c><00:37:00.219><c> very</c><00:37:00.599><c> quickly,</c>

00:37:01.599 --> 00:37:05.539
we're<00:37:02.019><c> figuring</c><00:37:02.199><c> it</c><00:37:02.480><c> out</c><00:37:02.699><c> from</c><00:37:03.860><c> day</c><00:37:04.099><c> one</c><00:37:04.260><c> to</c><00:37:04.380><c> day</c><00:37:04.639><c> two.</c>

00:37:06.860 --> 00:37:08.599
And<00:37:07.139><c> we</c><00:37:07.260><c> learn</c><00:37:07.360><c> that</c><00:37:07.519><c> what</c><00:37:07.739><c> works</c><00:37:08.199><c> with</c><00:37:08.420><c> one</c>

00:37:09.699 --> 00:37:11.340

00:37:11.719 --> 00:37:13.400
and<00:37:11.900><c> then</c><00:37:12.059><c> you</c><00:37:12.260><c> figure</c><00:37:12.480><c> it</c><00:37:12.659><c> out</c><00:37:12.780><c> again</c><00:37:12.940><c> from</c><00:37:13.159><c> scratch,</c>

Nobody<00:37:29.880><c> says</c><00:37:30.239><c> boo,</c><00:37:30.780><c> or</c><00:37:30.920><c> nobody</c><00:37:31.179><c> kicks</c><00:37:31.500><c> anybody,</c>

00:37:45.159 --> 00:37:47.579
Because<00:37:45.559><c> I</c><00:37:45.960><c> don't</c><00:37:46.159><c> know</c><00:37:46.320><c> how</c><00:37:46.500><c> to</c><00:37:46.619><c> do</c><00:37:46.820><c> that.</c>

00:37:47.960 --> 00:37:49.239
I'm<00:37:48.360><c> trying!</c>

00:37:50.360 --> 00:37:51.179
Right?

00:37:51.260 --> 00:37:53.139
And<00:37:51.400><c> so</c><00:37:51.480><c> we</c><00:37:51.599><c> reach</c><00:37:51.800><c> out</c><00:37:51.980><c> to</c><00:37:52.159><c> God</c><00:37:52.320><c> and</c><00:37:52.500><c> ask</c><00:37:52.679><c> for</c><00:37:52.820><c> his</c><00:37:53.000><c> help,</c>

00:38:46.460 --> 00:38:49.320
compared<00:38:46.840><c> to</c><00:38:47.000><c> his</c><00:38:47.199><c> sensible</c><00:38:47.460><c> wife,</c><00:38:48.900><c> right?</c>

00:38:49.320 --> 00:38:52.539
But<00:38:49.820><c> the</c><00:38:50.059><c> brother</c><00:38:50.239><c> had</c><00:38:50.599><c> a</c><00:38:50.960><c> heart</c><00:38:51.199><c> that</c><00:38:51.539><c> indicates</c><00:38:51.880><c> something</c>

00:38:52.539 --> 00:38:55.480

00:38:56.159 --> 00:39:01.760
He's<00:38:56.760><c> asking</c><00:38:57.159><c> God's</c><00:38:57.679><c> help</c><00:38:58.199><c> to</c><00:38:58.699><c> raise</c><00:38:59.000><c> the</c><00:38:59.280><c> child</c><00:38:59.619><c> the</c><00:39:00.360><c> right</c><00:39:00.659><c> way.</c>

00:39:31.960 --> 00:39:33.739
Now,<00:39:32.380><c> sometimes</c><00:39:32.800><c> you</c><00:39:32.960><c> read</c><00:39:33.099><c> things</c><00:39:33.300><c> like</c><00:39:33.559><c> that</c>

I<00:39:42.320><c> don't</c><00:39:42.559><c> understand</c><00:39:42.960><c> that.</c>

00:39:43.179 --> 00:39:46.000
You<00:39:43.300><c> may</c><00:39:43.519><c> have</c><00:39:43.679><c> an</c><00:39:43.840><c> answer</c><00:39:43.980><c> to</c><00:39:44.159><c> help</c><00:39:44.320><c> me</c><00:39:44.500><c> with,</c><00:39:45.159><c> right?</c>

00:39:46.059 --> 00:39:47.260
We<00:39:46.539><c> could</c><00:39:46.780><c> think,</c><00:39:46.960><c> all</c><00:39:47.139><c> right,</c>

00:39:47.300 --> 00:39:49.000

00:39:57.480 --> 00:40:00.579
Once<00:39:57.699><c> again,</c><00:39:58.500><c> that</c><00:39:58.920><c> theme</c><00:39:59.360><c> of</c><00:39:59.760><c> the</c><00:39:59.980><c> woman</c>

00:40:12.539 --> 00:40:13.940
The<00:40:12.699><c> woman,</c><00:40:13.500><c> right?</c>

00:40:13.940 --> 00:40:20.000
And<00:40:14.760><c> as</c><00:40:18.119><c> we</c><00:40:18.260><c> look</c><00:40:18.420><c> at</c><00:40:18.480><c> what</c><00:40:18.619><c> he</c><00:40:18.840><c> says,</c>

And<00:41:17.960><c> how</c><00:41:18.159><c> are</c><00:41:18.360><c> we</c><00:41:19.119><c> to</c><00:41:19.880><c> interact</c><00:41:20.260><c> with</c><00:41:20.440><c> him</c>

00:41:21.099 --> 00:41:24.400
so<00:41:21.460><c> that</c><00:41:21.659><c> he</c><00:41:21.900><c> fulfills</c><00:41:22.460><c> what</c><00:41:22.679><c> you</c><00:41:22.900><c> need</c><00:41:23.059><c> him</c><00:41:23.239><c> to</c><00:41:23.440><c> fulfill?</c>

00:41:25.099 --> 00:41:28.219
Now<00:41:25.360><c> that's</c><00:41:25.699><c> not</c><00:41:25.860><c> a</c><00:41:26.119><c> sign</c><00:41:26.280><c> of</c><00:41:26.500><c> a</c><00:41:26.739><c> weak</c><00:41:27.199><c> brother</c>

00:41:28.139 --> 00:41:30.280
who<00:41:28.480><c> doesn't</c><00:41:28.760><c> know</c><00:41:28.940><c> what</c><00:41:29.079><c> he's</c><00:41:29.480><c> doing.</c>

00:41:30.820 --> 00:41:34.039
It's<00:41:31.099><c> an</c><00:41:31.280><c> indication</c><00:41:31.719><c> of</c><00:41:31.980><c> an</c><00:41:32.159><c> individual</c><00:41:32.519><c> who</c><00:41:32.699><c> is</c><00:41:32.940><c> a</c><00:41:33.179><c> believer,</c>

00:41:34.739 --> 00:41:38.559
truly<00:41:35.119><c> a</c><00:41:35.539><c> believer</c><00:41:35.920><c> in</c><00:41:36.420><c> God,</c><00:41:37.639><c> right?</c>

00:41:38.679 --> 00:41:42.619
And<00:41:38.980><c> then</c><00:41:39.159><c> it</c><00:41:39.300><c> says,</c><00:41:41.880><c> verse</c><00:41:41.980><c> 13,</c>

00:41:42.699 --> 00:41:46.659
the<00:41:42.800><c> angel</c><00:41:43.400><c> of</c><00:41:43.719><c> Yahweh</c><00:41:44.260><c> said</c><00:41:44.780><c> unto</c><00:41:45.360><c> Manoah,</c>

00:41:46.739 --> 00:41:51.159
of<00:41:46.820><c> all</c><00:41:47.119><c> that</c><00:41:47.260><c> I</c><00:41:47.440><c> said</c><00:41:47.579><c> unto</c><00:41:47.800><c> the</c><00:41:47.960><c> woman,</c><00:41:49.820><c> let</c><00:41:49.940><c> her</c><00:41:50.119><c> beware.</c>

00:41:52.000 --> 00:41:54.619
She<00:41:52.159><c> may</c><00:41:52.340><c> not</c><00:41:52.480><c> eat</c><00:41:52.639><c> of</c><00:41:52.800><c> anything</c><00:41:53.239><c> that</c><00:41:53.719><c> cometh</c><00:41:53.900><c> of</c><00:41:54.079><c> the</c><00:41:54.260><c> vine,</c>

00:41:54.940 --> 00:41:57.920
neither<00:41:55.159><c> let</c><00:41:55.300><c> her</c><00:41:55.480><c> drink</c><00:41:55.760><c> wine,</c><00:41:56.460><c> nor</c><00:41:56.599><c> strong</c><00:41:56.960><c> drink,</c>

00:41:57.980 --> 00:42:00.039
nor<00:41:58.139><c> eat</c><00:41:58.579><c> any</c><00:41:59.119><c> unclean</c><00:41:59.599><c> thing.</c>

00:42:00.420 --> 00:42:04.019
All<00:42:00.760><c> that</c><00:42:00.920><c> I</c><00:42:01.099><c> commanded</c><00:42:01.460><c> her,</c><00:42:02.360><c> let</c><00:42:02.840><c> her</c><00:42:03.420><c> observe.</c>

00:42:04.300 --> 00:42:06.800
So<00:42:04.579><c> look</c><00:42:04.960><c> at</c><00:42:05.139><c> the</c><00:42:05.400><c> seriousness</c><00:42:05.760><c> of</c><00:42:06.019><c> this.</c>

00:42:06.900 --> 00:42:08.900
Here's<00:42:07.420><c> the</c><00:42:07.579><c> word</c><00:42:07.719><c> beware</c><00:42:08.219><c> with</c><00:42:08.420><c> the</c><00:42:08.599><c> woman</c>

00:42:08.900 --> 00:42:10.880
when<00:42:09.239><c> he</c><00:42:09.420><c> talked</c><00:42:09.579><c> to</c><00:42:09.699><c> her</c><00:42:09.840><c> at</c><00:42:10.059><c> first.</c>

00:42:11.019 --> 00:42:14.699
And<00:42:11.019><c> now</c><00:42:11.239><c> he</c><00:42:11.340><c> says</c><00:42:11.599><c> to</c><00:42:11.820><c> Manoah,</c><00:42:12.480><c> let</c><00:42:12.739><c> her</c><00:42:12.940><c> beware</c><00:42:13.340><c> of</c><00:42:13.539><c> those</c><00:42:13.800><c> things.</c>

00:42:15.119 --> 00:42:16.440
And<00:42:15.300><c> then</c><00:42:15.440><c> he</c><00:42:15.559><c> says</c><00:42:15.679><c> to</c><00:42:15.840><c> her,</c>

00:42:16.900 --> 00:42:20.639
make<00:42:17.199><c> sure</c><00:42:17.539><c> that</c><00:42:17.780><c> she</c><00:42:18.000><c> observes</c><00:42:18.639><c> what</c><00:42:18.820><c> I</c><00:42:19.059><c> commanded</c><00:42:19.400><c> her</c><00:42:19.599><c> to</c><00:42:19.780><c> do.</c>

00:42:21.380 --> 00:42:24.500
So<00:42:21.539><c> there's</c><00:42:22.199><c> an</c><00:42:22.360><c> emphatic</c><00:42:23.179><c> sort</c><00:42:23.420><c> of</c><00:42:23.780><c> underscoring</c>

00:42:24.500 --> 00:42:28.440
over<00:42:25.239><c> and</c><00:42:25.519><c> over</c><00:42:25.780><c> again</c><00:42:26.179><c> about</c><00:42:27.239><c> observance</c>

00:42:28.440 --> 00:42:31.539
of<00:42:28.980><c> the</c><00:42:29.320><c> commandments</c><00:42:29.900><c> of</c><00:42:30.539><c> the</c><00:42:30.699><c> Lord.</c>

00:42:32.019 --> 00:42:33.679
Now<00:42:32.239><c> why</c><00:42:32.579><c> this</c><00:42:33.000><c> overemphasis?</c>

00:42:33.679 --> 00:42:34.820
It's<00:42:33.840><c> not</c><00:42:34.039><c> overemphasis,</c>

00:42:34.820 --> 00:42:36.960
it's<00:42:35.139><c> a</c><00:42:35.320><c> message</c><00:42:35.599><c> to</c><00:42:35.780><c> the</c><00:42:35.880><c> whole</c><00:42:36.059><c> nation,</c><00:42:36.420><c> isn't</c><00:42:36.559><c> it?</c>

00:42:37.260 --> 00:42:40.019
A<00:42:37.460><c> nation</c><00:42:37.619><c> that</c><00:42:37.780><c> was</c><00:42:38.099><c> not</c><00:42:38.340><c> at</c><00:42:38.500><c> all</c><00:42:38.780><c> observant.</c>

00:42:40.199 --> 00:42:43.980
A<00:42:40.360><c> nation</c><00:42:40.599><c> that</c><00:42:40.760><c> had</c><00:42:41.059><c> accommodated</c><00:42:41.639><c> itself</c><00:42:42.079><c> to</c><00:42:42.579><c> foreign</c><00:42:42.900><c> beliefs,</c>

00:42:44.380 --> 00:42:47.500
foreign<00:42:44.579><c> ideas,</c><00:42:45.780><c> ideas</c><00:42:45.980><c> that</c><00:42:46.159><c> were</c><00:42:46.480><c> completely</c><00:42:46.920><c> repugnant</c>

00:42:47.500 --> 00:42:48.579
to<00:42:47.679><c> God.</c>

00:42:48.940 --> 00:42:52.539
And<00:42:49.039><c> now</c><00:42:49.179><c> God's</c><00:42:49.480><c> angel</c><00:42:49.639><c> is</c><00:42:49.880><c> saying,</c><00:42:50.460><c> you</c><00:42:50.860><c> be</c><00:42:51.460><c> careful</c>

00:42:53.360 --> 00:42:57.340
to<00:42:53.880><c> obey</c><00:42:54.400><c> every</c><00:42:55.420><c> word</c><00:42:55.820><c> I</c><00:42:56.159><c> have</c><00:42:56.360><c> told</c><00:42:56.599><c> you,</c>

00:42:57.679 --> 00:42:59.280
because<00:42:57.920><c> that's</c><00:42:58.199><c> what</c><00:42:58.340><c> you</c><00:42:58.440><c> people</c><00:42:58.719><c> should</c><00:42:58.860><c> be</c><00:42:59.039><c> doing.</c>

00:42:59.460 --> 00:43:02.280
And<00:42:59.659><c> I</c><00:42:59.699><c> want</c><00:42:59.840><c> you</c><00:43:00.019><c> to</c><00:43:00.139><c> do</c><00:43:00.280><c> that,</c><00:43:01.519><c> right?</c>

00:43:02.480 --> 00:43:05.360
He<00:43:02.880><c> doesn't</c><00:43:03.139><c> give</c><00:43:03.320><c> him</c><00:43:03.420><c> any</c><00:43:03.639><c> guidance</c><00:43:03.900><c> beyond</c><00:43:04.219><c> that.</c>

00:43:05.559 --> 00:43:11.239
And<00:43:05.599><c> then</c><00:43:05.719><c> it</c><00:43:05.900><c> says,</c><00:43:10.000><c> Manoah</c><00:43:10.179><c> said</c><00:43:10.380><c> unto</c><00:43:10.559><c> the</c><00:43:10.699><c> angel</c><00:43:10.960><c> of</c><00:43:11.099><c> the</c><00:43:11.159><c> Lord,</c>

00:43:11.380 --> 00:43:12.940
I<00:43:11.380><c> pray</c><00:43:11.579><c> thee,</c><00:43:11.760><c> let</c><00:43:11.840><c> us</c><00:43:12.039><c> detain</c><00:43:12.360><c> thee</c>

00:43:12.940 --> 00:43:16.059
until<00:43:13.420><c> we</c><00:43:13.679><c> have</c><00:43:13.920><c> made</c><00:43:14.599><c> ready</c><00:43:15.000><c> a</c><00:43:15.440><c> kid</c><00:43:15.599><c> for</c><00:43:15.800><c> thee.</c>

00:43:16.400 --> 00:43:18.460
And<00:43:16.599><c> the</c><00:43:16.719><c> angel</c><00:43:16.920><c> of</c><00:43:17.119><c> Yahweh</c><00:43:17.360><c> said</c><00:43:17.519><c> unto</c><00:43:17.699><c> Manoah,</c>

00:43:18.559 --> 00:43:19.940
you're<00:43:18.739><c> not</c><00:43:18.880><c> going</c><00:43:19.059><c> to</c><00:43:19.239><c> detain</c><00:43:19.440><c> me,</c>

00:43:20.440 --> 00:43:21.860
and<00:43:20.639><c> I'm</c><00:43:20.800><c> not</c><00:43:21.000><c> going</c><00:43:21.159><c> to</c><00:43:21.239><c> eat</c><00:43:21.380><c> your</c><00:43:21.559><c> bread.</c>

00:43:22.340 --> 00:43:24.599
But<00:43:22.500><c> if</c><00:43:22.659><c> you</c><00:43:22.900><c> want</c><00:43:23.119><c> to</c><00:43:23.300><c> make</c><00:43:23.440><c> an</c><00:43:23.719><c> offering,</c>

00:43:25.840 --> 00:43:28.480
offer<00:43:26.239><c> a</c><00:43:26.639><c> burnt</c><00:43:27.000><c> offering.</c>

00:43:29.960 --> 00:43:33.559
Thou<00:43:30.559><c> must</c><00:43:30.920><c> offer</c><00:43:31.320><c> it</c><00:43:31.619><c> unto</c><00:43:32.079><c> Yahweh.</c>

00:43:33.940 --> 00:43:38.320
Burnt<00:43:34.280><c> offering,</c><00:43:35.440><c> a</c><00:43:35.659><c> full</c><00:43:35.840><c> and</c><00:43:36.059><c> complete</c><00:43:36.460><c> dedication</c><00:43:37.039><c> of</c><00:43:37.380><c> self,</c>

00:43:38.440 --> 00:43:40.679
which<00:43:38.559><c> was</c><00:43:38.820><c> represented</c><00:43:39.260><c> by</c><00:43:39.579><c> that.</c>

00:43:41.559 --> 00:43:44.699
Manoah<00:43:41.940><c> knew</c><00:43:42.300><c> not</c><00:43:43.000><c> that</c><00:43:43.300><c> he</c><00:43:43.440><c> was</c><00:43:43.679><c> an</c><00:43:43.820><c> angel</c><00:43:43.960><c> of</c><00:43:44.119><c> the</c><00:43:44.260><c> Lord.</c>

00:43:45.079 --> 00:43:46.699
And<00:43:45.199><c> Manoah</c><00:43:45.440><c> said</c><00:43:45.619><c> unto</c><00:43:45.800><c> the</c><00:43:45.980><c> angel</c><00:43:46.139><c> of</c><00:43:46.300><c> the</c><00:43:46.380><c> Lord,</c>

what<00:43:47.300><c> is</c><00:43:47.579><c> your</c><00:43:47.860><c> name?</c>

00:43:49.239 --> 00:43:54.440
That<00:43:49.440><c> when</c><00:43:50.179><c> your</c><00:43:50.880><c> sayings</c><00:43:51.260><c> come</c><00:43:51.480><c> to</c><00:43:51.719><c> pass,</c><00:43:52.300><c> we</c><00:43:52.519><c> may</c><00:43:52.739><c> do</c><00:43:53.019><c> thee</c><00:43:53.440><c> honor.</c>

00:43:58.739 --> 00:44:01.380
Seeing<00:43:58.880><c> it</c><00:43:59.039><c> as</c><00:43:59.199><c> a</c><00:43:59.199><c> secret,</c><00:43:59.920><c> or</c><00:44:00.159><c> the</c><00:44:00.340><c> revised</c><00:44:00.659><c> version</c><00:44:00.940><c> says,</c>

00:44:13.099 --> 00:44:16.880
Now,<00:44:14.639><c> there</c><00:44:14.760><c> are</c><00:44:14.760><c> two</c><00:44:14.920><c> reasons</c><00:44:15.280><c> he</c><00:44:15.420><c> won't</c><00:44:15.599><c> tell</c><00:44:15.780><c> them</c><00:44:15.880><c> his</c><00:44:16.019><c> name.</c>

00:44:17.380 --> 00:44:21.159
One,<00:44:18.539><c> if</c><00:44:18.860><c> he</c><00:44:19.139><c> tells</c><00:44:19.360><c> them</c><00:44:19.539><c> his</c><00:44:19.739><c> name,</c><00:44:20.039><c> there</c><00:44:20.119><c> is</c><00:44:20.260><c> the</c><00:44:20.400><c> risk</c>

00:44:21.159 --> 00:44:24.840

00:44:24.980 --> 00:44:27.480

00:44:27.699 --> 00:44:29.800
These<00:44:27.920><c> were</c><00:44:28.199><c> idolatrous</c><00:44:28.739><c> times.</c>

00:44:29.820 --> 00:44:30.800
There<00:44:29.900><c> are</c><00:44:29.960><c> all</c><00:44:30.079><c> these</c><00:44:30.219><c> little</c><00:44:30.440><c> effigies,</c>

00:44:30.920 --> 00:44:33.480
all<00:44:31.039><c> these</c><00:44:31.300><c> little</c><00:44:31.820><c> images</c><00:44:32.280><c> of</c><00:44:32.480><c> their</c><00:44:32.679><c> gods</c><00:44:32.860><c> and</c><00:44:33.079><c> goddesses.</c>

00:44:33.480 --> 00:44:36.159
There'd<00:44:33.679><c> be</c><00:44:33.840><c> one</c><00:44:34.280><c> with</c><00:44:34.960><c> the</c><00:44:35.079><c> name</c><00:44:35.300><c> of</c><00:44:35.480><c> the</c><00:44:35.659><c> angel</c>

00:44:37.980 --> 00:44:40.139
So<00:44:38.139><c> the</c><00:44:38.340><c> angel</c><00:44:38.519><c> will</c><00:44:38.699><c> have</c><00:44:38.840><c> none</c><00:44:39.039><c> of</c><00:44:39.199><c> that.</c>

But<00:44:41.960><c> also</c><00:44:42.360><c> when</c><00:44:42.519><c> he</c><00:44:42.659><c> uses</c><00:44:42.840><c> that</c><00:44:43.059><c> word</c><00:44:43.219><c> wonderful,</c>

Wonderful,<00:44:49.559><c> counselor,</c><00:44:50.079><c> the</c><00:44:50.179><c> mighty</c><00:44:50.440><c> God,</c>

00:44:55.400 --> 00:45:00.039
Because<00:44:55.900><c> it</c><00:44:56.739><c> says,</c><00:44:58.599><c> it</c><00:44:58.800><c> says.</c>

00:45:01.559 --> 00:45:04.980

00:45:07.000 --> 00:45:09.380
Manoah<00:45:07.139><c> took</c><00:45:07.360><c> the</c><00:45:07.599><c> kid</c><00:45:07.880><c> with</c><00:45:08.380><c> a</c><00:45:08.619><c> meal</c><00:45:08.920><c> offering,</c>

00:45:29.739 --> 00:45:31.260
And<00:45:29.739><c> Manoah</c><00:45:29.900><c> and</c><00:45:29.980><c> his</c><00:45:30.059><c> wife</c><00:45:30.260><c> looked</c><00:45:30.539><c> on</c><00:45:30.820><c> it</c>

00:46:06.639 --> 00:46:08.360
The<00:46:06.800><c> angel</c><00:46:07.019><c> doesn't</c><00:46:07.360><c> say</c><00:46:07.599><c> what</c><00:46:07.719><c> his</c><00:46:07.900><c> name</c><00:46:08.059><c> is</c>

00:46:08.360 --> 00:46:11.860

00:46:11.920 --> 00:46:16.099
And<00:46:12.159><c> then</c><00:46:12.300><c> the</c><00:46:12.519><c> angel</c><00:46:12.920><c> has</c><00:46:13.239><c> an</c><00:46:13.559><c> ascension</c><00:46:14.780><c> in</c><00:46:15.420><c> the</c><00:46:15.599><c> flame.</c>

00:46:16.099 --> 00:46:20.159

00:46:27.659 --> 00:46:29.699
So<00:46:27.940><c> there</c><00:46:28.159><c> we've</c><00:46:28.440><c> got</c><00:46:28.579><c> the</c><00:46:28.800><c> sacrifice</c><00:46:29.219><c> of</c><00:46:29.460><c> Christ,</c>

the<00:46:29.920><c> birth</c><00:46:30.059><c> of</c><00:46:30.300><c> Christ,</c><00:46:31.300><c> the</c><00:46:31.480><c> life</c><00:46:31.699><c> of</c><00:46:32.000><c> Christ,</c>

00:46:32.900 --> 00:46:34.699
the<00:46:33.199><c> sacrifice</c><00:46:33.579><c> of</c><00:46:33.880><c> Christ,</c>

00:46:38.840 --> 00:46:43.679
all<00:46:39.440><c> symbolized</c><00:46:40.039><c> in</c><00:46:40.219><c> this</c><00:46:40.599><c> wonderful,</c><00:46:42.659><c> rich,</c>

00:46:44.059 --> 00:46:48.440
complex<00:46:44.539><c> parable</c><00:46:45.019><c> of</c><00:46:45.300><c> action</c><00:46:46.099><c> taken</c><00:46:47.059><c> by</c><00:46:47.280><c> the</c><00:46:47.519><c> angel.</c>

00:46:48.900 --> 00:46:51.300
Manoah<00:46:49.000><c> is</c><00:46:49.239><c> terrified</c><00:46:49.780><c> and</c><00:46:50.119><c> this</c><00:46:50.320><c> is</c><00:46:50.480><c> where</c><00:46:50.599><c> people</c><00:46:50.940><c> then,</c>

00:46:51.340 --> 00:46:54.139
they<00:46:51.579><c> begin</c><00:46:51.760><c> to</c><00:46:52.039><c> assume</c><00:46:52.280><c> he's</c><00:46:52.880><c> a</c><00:46:53.179><c> weak</c><00:46:53.380><c> and</c><00:46:53.539><c> a</c><00:46:53.780><c> frail</c>

00:46:57.639 --> 00:46:58.340
It's<00:46:57.820><c> not</c><00:46:58.079><c> true.</c>

00:46:58.519 --> 00:47:02.000
How<00:46:58.679><c> would</c><00:46:58.840><c> you</c><00:46:59.039><c> react</c><00:46:59.519><c> if</c><00:47:00.099><c> you</c><00:47:00.699><c> saw</c><00:47:00.960><c> something</c><00:47:01.260><c> like</c><00:47:01.500><c> that</c><00:47:01.739><c> happen?</c>

00:47:02.199 --> 00:47:05.239
I'd<00:47:02.559><c> fall</c><00:47:02.739><c> apart</c><00:47:02.940><c> on</c><00:47:03.099><c> the</c><00:47:03.260><c> spot</c><00:47:03.440><c> just</c><00:47:03.719><c> like</c><00:47:03.900><c> Manoah</c><00:47:04.159><c> did.</c>

00:47:06.860 --> 00:47:08.840
But<00:47:07.340><c> he</c><00:47:07.820><c> thinks</c><00:47:08.039><c> that</c><00:47:08.320><c> they're</c><00:47:08.500><c> going</c><00:47:08.599><c> to</c><00:47:08.760><c> die.</c>

00:47:08.960 --> 00:47:11.219
He<00:47:09.260><c> didn't</c><00:47:09.460><c> realize</c><00:47:09.780><c> he</c><00:47:09.860><c> was</c><00:47:10.019><c> an</c><00:47:10.260><c> angel.</c>

And<00:47:11.980><c> it</c><00:47:12.139><c> says,</c><00:47:13.739><c> Manoah</c><00:47:14.320><c> knew</c><00:47:14.719><c> that</c><00:47:14.900><c> he</c><00:47:14.940><c> was</c><00:47:15.119><c> an</c><00:47:15.340><c> angel.</c>

00:47:15.980 --> 00:47:18.079
He<00:47:16.119><c> said,</c><00:47:16.400><c> we're</c><00:47:16.559><c> going</c><00:47:16.699><c> to</c><00:47:17.039><c> die.</c>

00:47:18.099 --> 00:47:20.940
We're<00:47:18.360><c> surely</c><00:47:18.579><c> going</c><00:47:18.820><c> to</c><00:47:18.980><c> die</c><00:47:19.079><c> because</c><00:47:19.280><c> we've</c><00:47:19.599><c> seen</c><00:47:19.860><c> God.</c>

00:47:21.599 --> 00:47:23.380
But<00:47:21.719><c> his</c><00:47:21.900><c> wife</c><00:47:22.059><c> said</c><00:47:22.260><c> unto</c><00:47:22.460><c> him,</c>

00:47:27.619 --> 00:47:30.440

00:47:58.579 --> 00:48:01.480
We<00:47:58.619><c> think</c><00:47:58.719><c> of</c><00:47:58.980><c> Sarah</c><00:47:59.539><c> in</c><00:48:00.280><c> Egypt.</c>

And<00:49:22.880><c> so</c><00:49:23.000><c> we've</c><00:49:23.360><c> got</c><00:49:24.019><c> a</c><00:49:24.260><c> mother</c><00:49:24.420><c> and</c><00:49:24.719><c> father,</c>

godly,<00:49:27.239><c> strong,</c><00:49:28.679><c> straightforward</c><00:49:29.199><c> faith.</c>

00:49:30.659 --> 00:49:33.880
And<00:49:31.300><c> they</c><00:49:31.539><c> have</c><00:49:31.860><c> a</c><00:49:31.980><c> child</c><00:49:32.340><c> that</c><00:49:32.480><c> they're</c><00:49:32.699><c> going</c><00:49:32.840><c> to</c><00:49:33.059><c> raise.</c>

00:49:34.639 --> 00:49:37.500
And<00:49:34.719><c> it</c><00:49:34.840><c> says,</c><00:49:36.280><c> verse</c><00:49:36.460><c> 24,</c>

00:49:42.460 --> 00:49:43.599
Samson.

00:49:43.719 --> 00:49:46.820
And<00:49:43.960><c> Samson</c><00:49:44.219><c> means,</c><00:49:44.480><c> well,</c><00:49:45.019><c> it</c><00:49:45.139><c> means</c><00:49:45.500><c> sunshine.</c>

00:49:47.500 --> 00:49:50.800
It's<00:49:47.739><c> the</c><00:49:48.039><c> reflected</c><00:49:48.599><c> glory</c><00:49:49.300><c> of</c><00:49:49.900><c> the</c><00:49:50.159><c> sun</c><00:49:50.300><c> itself,</c>

00:49:51.159 --> 00:49:54.699
the<00:49:51.440><c> son</c><00:49:51.780><c> of</c><00:49:52.139><c> righteousness</c><00:49:52.719><c> with</c><00:49:53.440><c> healing</c><00:49:53.920><c> in</c><00:49:54.099><c> his</c><00:49:54.380><c> beams.</c>

00:49:55.059 --> 00:49:58.679
Here's<00:49:55.639><c> someone</c><00:49:56.039><c> who</c><00:49:56.480><c> in</c><00:49:56.860><c> some</c><00:49:57.119><c> aspects</c><00:49:57.559><c> of</c><00:49:57.719><c> his</c><00:49:57.880><c> life</c>

00:50:11.099 --> 00:50:12.960
His<00:50:11.320><c> name</c><00:50:11.559><c> is</c><00:50:11.960><c> sunshine.</c>

00:50:13.360 --> 00:50:14.320
Sunshine.

00:50:15.400 --> 00:50:18.400
The<00:50:15.659><c> child</c><00:50:16.019><c> grew</c><00:50:16.519><c> and</c><00:50:17.519><c> Yahweh</c><00:50:17.980><c> blessed</c><00:50:18.260><c> him.</c>

00:50:18.440 --> 00:50:19.780
Now,<00:50:18.599><c> how</c><00:50:18.659><c> does</c><00:50:18.760><c> that</c><00:50:18.940><c> remind</c><00:50:19.239><c> us</c><00:50:19.480><c> of?</c>

00:50:20.039 --> 00:50:22.179

00:50:22.639 --> 00:50:25.460
He<00:50:22.900><c> grew</c><00:50:23.420><c> in</c><00:50:23.639><c> wisdom</c><00:50:24.039><c> and</c><00:50:24.380><c> stature.</c>

00:50:25.630 --> 00:50:28.119
We<00:50:26.019><c> read</c><00:50:26.280><c> of</c><00:50:26.380><c> him</c><00:50:26.659><c> in</c><00:50:26.820><c> the</c><00:50:26.920><c> gospel,</c>

00:50:28.340 --> 00:50:32.860
but<00:50:28.460><c> the</c><00:50:28.860><c> spirit</c><00:50:29.420><c> of</c><00:50:29.900><c> Yahweh</c><00:50:30.920><c> began</c><00:50:31.500><c> to</c><00:50:31.760><c> move</c><00:50:31.880><c> him</c><00:50:32.079><c> at</c><00:50:32.260><c> times</c>

00:50:32.860 --> 00:50:38.820

00:50:39.300 --> 00:50:42.199
Eshtiol<00:50:39.800><c> is</c><00:50:40.039><c> a</c><00:50:40.179><c> word</c><00:50:40.360><c> which</c><00:50:40.599><c> means</c><00:50:40.960><c> entreaty.</c>

00:50:42.579 --> 00:50:44.059
It's<00:50:42.780><c> about</c><00:50:42.900><c> prayer.</c>

00:50:44.579 --> 00:50:51.139
So<00:50:44.780><c> between</c><00:50:45.920><c> the</c><00:50:47.019><c> stinging,</c><00:50:47.719><c> the</c><00:50:48.099><c> scourging,</c><00:50:49.559><c> the</c><00:50:49.860><c> hornet,</c>
