00:04:00.120 --> 00:04:04.099

00:04:08.020 --> 00:04:11.000
Perhaps<00:04:08.020><c> we</c><00:04:08.180><c> might</c><00:04:08.300><c> just</c><00:04:09.319><c> turn</c><00:04:09.699><c> to</c><00:04:09.900><c> the</c><00:04:10.060><c> passage</c><00:04:10.379><c> in</c><00:04:10.680><c> the</c><00:04:10.819><c> Old</c>

expresses<00:05:28.980><c> the</c><00:05:29.800><c> power</c><00:05:30.019><c> of</c><00:05:30.240><c> their</c><00:05:30.399><c> emotions.</c>

00:05:31.759 --> 00:05:33.839
We'll<00:05:31.980><c> come</c><00:05:32.240><c> to</c><00:05:32.459><c> the</c><00:05:32.600><c> other</c><00:05:32.759><c> later.</c>

00:05:35.939 --> 00:05:38.759
So<00:05:36.500><c> they</c><00:05:36.759><c> came</c><00:05:36.959><c> to</c><00:05:37.120><c> the</c><00:05:37.319><c> conference</c><00:05:37.660><c> and</c><00:05:37.839><c> there</c><00:05:38.000><c> were</c><00:05:38.339><c> sort</c><00:05:38.560><c> of</c>

00:05:38.759 --> 00:05:40.459
four<00:05:38.959><c> things</c><00:05:39.259><c> that</c><00:05:39.500><c> really</c><00:05:39.779><c> were</c><00:05:40.019><c> a</c><00:05:40.220><c> problem</c>

00:05:40.459 --> 00:05:41.639
to<00:05:40.759><c> them.</c>

00:05:42.819 --> 00:05:47.120
There<00:05:43.220><c> was</c><00:05:43.420><c> the</c><00:05:43.560><c> matter</c><00:05:43.759><c> of</c><00:05:44.180><c> refugees</c><00:05:44.560><c> that</c><00:05:45.000><c> had</c><00:05:45.240><c> left</c><00:05:45.920><c> the</c><00:05:46.560><c> area</c><00:05:46.920><c> of</c>

00:05:47.120 --> 00:05:48.399
Israel,<00:05:47.779><c> you</c><00:05:48.120><c> know,</c><00:05:48.160><c> right</c><00:05:48.259><c> back</c>

00:05:48.399 --> 00:05:51.160
in<00:05:48.620><c> 1948</c><00:05:49.259><c> and</c><00:05:49.699><c> 1967.</c>

00:05:51.800 --> 00:05:53.399
So<00:05:51.939><c> they</c><00:05:52.040><c> had</c><00:05:52.079><c> to</c><00:05:52.199><c> work</c><00:05:52.379><c> out</c><00:05:52.620><c> what</c><00:05:52.800><c> they</c><00:05:52.980><c> were</c><00:05:53.060><c> going</c><00:05:53.160><c> to</c><00:05:53.319><c> do</c>

00:05:53.399 --> 00:05:54.540
with<00:05:53.560><c> these</c><00:05:53.759><c> people</c><00:05:53.939><c> because</c><00:05:54.100><c> they</c><00:05:54.339><c> still</c>

00:05:54.540 --> 00:06:01.180
claimed<00:05:54.740><c> that</c><00:05:54.899><c> they</c><00:05:55.360><c> really</c><00:05:55.759><c> resided</c><00:05:56.680><c> in</c><00:05:57.959><c> Palestine</c><00:05:58.759><c> or</c><00:06:00.019><c> Israel.</c>

00:06:01.480 --> 00:06:03.720
That<00:06:01.600><c> was</c><00:06:01.740><c> really</c><00:06:02.000><c> their</c><00:06:02.259><c> home,</c><00:06:02.800><c> a</c><00:06:03.000><c> difficult</c><00:06:03.259><c> problem.</c>

00:06:03.860 --> 00:06:04.600
Should<00:06:03.980><c> we</c><00:06:04.120><c> bring</c><00:06:04.240><c> them</c><00:06:04.420><c> back?</c>

00:06:04.639 --> 00:06:06.000
Don't<00:06:04.800><c> we</c><00:06:04.920><c> bring</c><00:06:05.040><c> them</c><00:06:05.240><c> back?</c>

00:06:06.220 --> 00:06:08.240
So<00:06:06.420><c> they</c><00:06:06.579><c> wrestled</c><00:06:06.819><c> with</c><00:06:06.959><c> that</c><00:06:07.139><c> problem</c><00:06:07.300><c> and</c><00:06:07.420><c> had</c><00:06:07.540><c> a</c><00:06:07.660><c> solution.</c>

00:06:08.240 --> 00:06:11.279
Well<00:06:08.800><c> where</c><00:06:08.959><c> then</c><00:06:09.100><c> will</c><00:06:09.259><c> be</c><00:06:09.480><c> the</c><00:06:09.639><c> lines</c><00:06:09.959><c> of</c><00:06:10.279><c> settlement?</c>

00:06:11.600 --> 00:06:15.180
Difficult<00:06:12.000><c> problem</c><00:06:12.439><c> but</c><00:06:13.019><c> you</c><00:06:13.199><c> know</c><00:06:13.339><c> they</c><00:06:13.439><c> got</c><00:06:13.620><c> a</c><00:06:13.740><c> solution</c><00:06:14.120><c> to</c><00:06:14.339><c> that.</c>

00:06:15.720 --> 00:06:17.939
Very<00:06:15.980><c> difficult</c><00:06:16.360><c> things</c><00:06:16.720><c> to</c><00:06:16.980><c> work</c><00:06:17.199><c> out</c><00:06:17.339><c> and</c><00:06:17.480><c> of</c><00:06:17.579><c> course</c><00:06:17.740><c> then</c>

00:06:17.939 --> 00:06:21.160
the<00:06:18.040><c> Jews</c><00:06:18.180><c> also</c><00:06:18.899><c> had</c><00:06:19.399><c> made</c><00:06:19.740><c> certain</c><00:06:20.180><c> new</c><00:06:20.680><c> settlements,</c>

00:06:21.360 --> 00:06:24.560
new<00:06:21.480><c> cities,</c><00:06:21.920><c> new</c><00:06:22.040><c> towns</c><00:06:22.579><c> in</c><00:06:23.259><c> some</c><00:06:23.480><c> of</c><00:06:23.699><c> the</c><00:06:23.939><c> what</c><00:06:24.100><c> they</c><00:06:24.379><c> called</c>

00:06:24.560 --> 00:06:26.459
occupied<00:06:25.259><c> territory.</c>

00:06:26.819 --> 00:06:30.240
Oh<00:06:27.259><c> that's</c><00:06:27.699><c> a</c><00:06:27.819><c> grisly</c><00:06:28.459><c> one</c><00:06:28.620><c> to</c><00:06:28.800><c> work</c><00:06:29.000><c> out</c><00:06:29.120><c> isn't</c><00:06:29.300><c> it?</c>

00:06:30.339 --> 00:06:32.420
Because<00:06:30.620><c> they've</c><00:06:30.819><c> gone</c><00:06:30.920><c> back</c><00:06:31.180><c> after</c><00:06:31.399><c> all</c><00:06:31.600><c> these</c><00:06:31.860><c> years</c><00:06:32.180><c> and</c>

00:06:32.420 --> 00:06:34.160
said<00:06:32.579><c> this</c><00:06:32.779><c> is</c><00:06:33.000><c> our</c><00:06:33.160><c> land.</c>

00:06:34.100 --> 00:06:37.579
Why<00:06:34.319><c> shouldn't</c><00:06:34.699><c> a</c><00:06:34.879><c> Jew</c><00:06:34.959><c> be</c><00:06:35.139><c> able</c><00:06:35.319><c> to</c><00:06:35.839><c> settle</c><00:06:36.180><c> upon</c><00:06:36.579><c> the</c><00:06:37.220><c> land</c>

00:06:39.100 --> 00:06:39.579
likes?

00:06:39.819 --> 00:06:43.319
And<00:06:39.819><c> really</c><00:06:40.040><c> it's</c><00:06:40.100><c> pretty</c><00:06:40.339><c> hard</c><00:06:40.500><c> to</c><00:06:40.660><c> answer</c><00:06:40.819><c> that</c><00:06:41.019><c> wasn't</c><00:06:41.240><c> it?</c>

00:06:43.879 --> 00:06:46.120
If<00:06:44.040><c> a</c><00:06:44.259><c> Canadian</c><00:06:44.259><c> is</c><00:06:44.339><c> allowed</c><00:06:44.560><c> to</c><00:06:44.680><c> go</c><00:06:44.779><c> and</c><00:06:44.920><c> find</c><00:06:45.500><c> any</c><00:06:45.740><c> piece</c><00:06:45.980><c> of</c>

land<00:06:46.279><c> he</c><00:06:46.420><c> likes</c><00:06:46.720><c> from</c><00:06:46.920><c> Ottawa</c><00:06:47.199><c> to</c><00:06:47.720><c> Vancouver</c>

00:06:48.220 --> 00:06:53.879
why<00:06:48.480><c> shouldn't</c><00:06:49.120><c> a</c><00:06:49.339><c> Jewish</c><00:06:49.560><c> person</c><00:06:49.899><c> be</c><00:06:50.100><c> allowed</c><00:06:50.339><c> to</c><00:06:50.519><c> find</c><00:06:51.639><c> habitation</c><00:06:52.379><c> in</c><00:06:52.660><c> Judea?</c>

00:06:54.779 --> 00:06:57.379
So<00:06:55.079><c> they</c><00:06:55.220><c> did</c><00:06:55.660><c> and</c><00:06:56.100><c> the</c><00:06:56.279><c> Israeli</c><00:06:56.600><c> governments</c><00:06:56.899><c> allowed</c><00:06:57.240><c> them</c>

to<00:06:57.579><c> do</c><00:06:57.720><c> it.</c>

00:06:58.540 --> 00:07:00.939
But<00:06:58.699><c> now</c><00:06:58.899><c> the</c><00:06:59.079><c> crunch</c><00:06:59.240><c> was</c><00:06:59.459><c> coming</c><00:06:59.699><c> and</c><00:06:59.860><c> the</c><00:07:00.160><c> Palestinians</c><00:07:00.420><c> said</c><00:07:00.639><c> this</c><00:07:00.800><c> is</c>

00:07:00.939 --> 00:07:02.420

00:07:02.860 --> 00:07:04.759
So<00:07:03.259><c> how</c><00:07:03.420><c> are</c><00:07:03.540><c> you</c><00:07:03.600><c> going</c><00:07:03.759><c> to</c><00:07:03.860><c> cut</c><00:07:04.079><c> that</c><00:07:04.300><c> up?</c>

00:07:05.160 --> 00:07:07.019
How<00:07:05.259><c> are</c><00:07:05.379><c> you</c><00:07:05.379><c> going</c><00:07:05.500><c> to</c><00:07:05.639><c> deal</c><00:07:05.720><c> with</c><00:07:05.899><c> the</c><00:07:06.199><c> feelings</c><00:07:06.519><c> of</c><00:07:06.699><c> people</c>

00:07:07.019 --> 00:07:09.060

00:07:11.220 --> 00:07:12.160
now<00:07:11.379><c> you</c><00:07:11.540><c> say</c><00:07:11.620><c> you've</c><00:07:11.740><c> got</c><00:07:11.800><c> to</c><00:07:11.920><c> give</c><00:07:12.000><c> that</c>

00:07:21.600 --> 00:07:23.519
And<00:07:21.699><c> so</c><00:07:21.819><c> it</c><00:07:21.839><c> looked</c><00:07:22.019><c> like</c><00:07:22.259><c> the</c><00:07:22.379><c> Camp</c><00:07:22.540><c> David</c><00:07:22.720><c> was</c><00:07:22.899><c> going</c><00:07:23.019><c> to</c><00:07:23.180><c> be</c>

00:12:22.980 --> 00:12:26.559
It's<00:12:23.580><c> not</c><00:12:24.240><c> economically</c><00:12:24.799><c> significant,</c><00:12:25.639><c> in</c><00:12:25.779><c> fact</c><00:12:25.940><c> very</c><00:12:26.299><c> often</c>

00:24:23.200 --> 00:24:24.200
It's<00:24:23.339><c> a</c><00:24:23.480><c> supreme</c><00:24:23.819><c> statement.</c>

00:24:24.619 --> 00:24:27.539

00:24:29.200 --> 00:24:31.119
then<00:24:29.640><c> surely</c><00:24:29.920><c> it</c><00:24:30.039><c> is</c><00:24:30.200><c> the</c><00:24:30.359><c> God</c><00:24:30.500><c> of</c><00:24:30.619><c> all</c><00:24:30.779><c> the</c><00:24:30.920><c> earth.</c>

00:29:07.200 --> 00:29:08.599
unite<00:29:07.420><c> the</c><00:29:07.680><c> kingdom</c><00:29:07.900><c> and</c><00:29:08.059><c> he</c><00:29:08.339><c> too.</c>

00:29:08.599 --> 00:29:12.279
And<00:29:08.900><c> this,</c><00:29:09.319><c> therefore,</c><00:29:09.500><c> was</c><00:29:09.799><c> strategically</c><00:29:10.319><c> the</c><00:29:10.579><c> right</c><00:29:10.940><c> place.</c>

00:29:14.200 --> 00:29:19.200
So<00:29:14.500><c> he</c><00:29:14.680><c> came</c><00:29:14.960><c> to</c><00:29:15.119><c> that</c><00:29:15.319><c> place</c><00:29:15.779><c> and</c><00:29:16.460><c> it</c><00:29:16.619><c> was</c><00:29:16.900><c> brought</c><00:29:17.240><c> to</c><00:29:17.720><c> his</c><00:29:18.039><c> control.</c>

00:29:19.420 --> 00:29:21.119
So,<00:29:19.579><c> verse</c><00:29:19.779><c> 8,</c><00:29:20.099><c> David</c><00:29:20.299><c> said</c><00:29:20.519><c> on</c><00:29:20.640><c> that</c><00:29:20.839><c> day,</c>

00:29:21.279 --> 00:29:26.480
Whosoever<00:29:21.720><c> getteth</c><00:29:21.960><c> up</c><00:29:22.160><c> to</c><00:29:22.319><c> the</c><00:29:22.500><c> gutter</c><00:29:22.940><c> and</c><00:29:23.259><c> smiteth</c><00:29:23.660><c> the</c><00:29:23.880><c> Jebusites</c><00:29:24.440><c> and</c><00:29:24.619><c> the</c><00:29:24.799><c> lame</c><00:29:24.980><c> and</c><00:29:25.099><c> the</c><00:29:25.299><c> blind</c><00:29:25.500><c> that</c><00:29:25.900><c> are</c><00:29:26.099><c> hated</c><00:29:26.299><c> of</c>

00:29:26.480 --> 00:29:28.500
David's<00:29:27.059><c> soul,</c><00:29:27.160><c> he</c><00:29:27.319><c> shall</c><00:29:27.460><c> be</c><00:29:27.660><c> chief</c><00:29:27.900><c> and</c><00:29:28.119><c> captain.</c>

00:29:28.960 --> 00:29:30.960
Wherefore,<00:29:29.259><c> they</c><00:29:29.539><c> said,</c><00:29:29.720><c> the</c><00:29:29.920><c> blind</c><00:29:30.140><c> and</c><00:29:30.319><c> the</c><00:29:30.519><c> lame</c><00:29:30.720><c> shall</c>

00:29:30.960 --> 00:29:32.859
not<00:29:31.180><c> come</c><00:29:31.400><c> into</c><00:29:31.579><c> the</c><00:29:31.819><c> house.</c>

00:29:33.359 --> 00:29:36.099
So<00:29:33.640><c> David</c><00:29:33.960><c> dwelt</c><00:29:34.240><c> in</c><00:29:34.440><c> the</c><00:29:34.619><c> fort</c><00:29:34.779><c> and</c><00:29:35.000><c> called</c><00:29:35.200><c> it.</c>

00:29:36.140 --> 00:29:40.240
The<00:29:36.619><c> second</c><00:29:36.680><c> time</c><00:29:36.900><c> it</c><00:29:37.059><c> said</c><00:29:37.220><c> this,</c><00:29:38.539><c> the</c><00:29:38.619><c> city</c><00:29:38.960><c> of</c><00:29:39.200><c> David.</c>

00:29:41.019 --> 00:29:43.859
And<00:29:41.119><c> David</c><00:29:41.359><c> built</c><00:29:41.640><c> roundabout</c><00:29:42.220><c> from</c><00:29:42.460><c> Millo</c><00:29:42.740><c> and</c><00:29:42.900><c> Inwood.</c>

00:29:44.220 --> 00:29:46.539
And<00:29:44.279><c> this</c><00:29:44.519><c> now</c><00:29:44.720><c> was</c><00:29:44.920><c> the</c><00:29:45.059><c> time</c><00:29:45.240><c> of</c><00:29:45.440><c> the</c><00:29:45.599><c> great</c><00:29:45.799><c> ascendancy</c><00:29:46.359><c> of</c>

00:29:46.539 --> 00:29:47.400
the<00:29:46.680><c> kingdom</c><00:29:46.920><c> of</c><00:29:47.119><c> David.</c>

00:29:47.400 --> 00:29:50.500
David<00:29:47.700><c> went</c><00:29:47.920><c> on</c><00:29:48.140><c> and</c><00:29:48.299><c> grew</c><00:29:48.460><c> great</c><00:29:48.819><c> and</c><00:29:49.240><c> the</c><00:29:49.440><c> Lord</c><00:29:49.660><c> God</c><00:29:49.859><c> of</c><00:29:50.039><c> hosts</c><00:29:50.259><c> was</c>

00:29:50.500 --> 00:29:51.599
with<00:29:50.740><c> him.</c>

00:29:51.799 --> 00:29:54.240
And<00:29:52.000><c> Harem,</c><00:29:52.299><c> king</c><00:29:52.440><c> of</c><00:29:52.640><c> Tyre,</c><00:29:52.880><c> sent</c><00:29:53.079><c> messengers</c><00:29:53.480><c> to</c><00:29:53.700><c> David</c><00:29:53.980><c> and</c>

00:29:54.240 --> 00:29:56.380
cedar<00:29:54.480><c> trees</c><00:29:54.940><c> and</c><00:29:55.440><c> carpeters</c><00:29:55.819><c> and</c><00:29:56.099><c> masons.</c>

00:29:56.400 --> 00:29:59.140
And<00:29:56.559><c> they</c><00:29:56.700><c> built</c><00:29:56.960><c> David</c><00:29:57.299><c> a</c><00:29:57.500><c> house</c><00:29:57.819><c> and</c><00:29:58.180><c> David</c><00:29:58.480><c> perceived</c><00:29:58.960><c> that</c>

00:29:59.140 --> 00:30:01.539
the<00:29:59.319><c> Lord</c><00:29:59.519><c> had</c><00:29:59.819><c> established</c><00:30:00.259><c> him</c><00:30:00.519><c> king</c><00:30:00.680><c> over</c><00:30:00.900><c> Israel</c>

00:30:01.539 --> 00:30:05.039
and<00:30:02.059><c> that</c><00:30:02.180><c> he</c><00:30:02.420><c> had</c><00:30:02.680><c> exalted</c><00:30:02.960><c> his</c><00:30:03.299><c> kingdom</c><00:30:03.839><c> for</c><00:30:04.480><c> his</c><00:30:04.759><c> people</c>

00:30:05.039 --> 00:30:06.640
Israel's<00:30:05.900><c> sake.</c>

00:30:07.200 --> 00:30:13.740
So<00:30:07.799><c> David,</c><00:30:09.559><c> who</c><00:30:09.859><c> is</c><00:30:10.140><c> the</c><00:30:10.339><c> great</c><00:30:10.859><c> king</c><00:30:11.359><c> of</c><00:30:11.720><c> the</c><00:30:11.960><c> history</c><00:30:12.319><c> of</c><00:30:12.619><c> Israel,</c><00:30:13.279><c> this</c><00:30:13.539><c> was</c>

00:30:13.740 --> 00:30:14.660
his<00:30:14.000><c> capital</c><00:30:14.319><c> city.</c>

00:30:15.000 --> 00:30:18.980
Here<00:30:15.200><c> Israel</c><00:30:15.559><c> was</c><00:30:15.859><c> united</c><00:30:16.339><c> and</c><00:30:17.420><c> that</c><00:30:17.799><c> was</c><00:30:18.039><c> God's</c><00:30:18.599><c> election.</c>

00:30:19.220 --> 00:30:22.980
Now<00:30:19.400><c> this</c><00:30:19.539><c> is</c><00:30:19.759><c> terribly</c><00:30:20.160><c> interesting</c><00:30:20.680><c> because</c><00:30:21.500><c> sometime</c><00:30:21.880><c> before</c><00:30:22.539><c> he</c>

00:30:22.980 --> 00:30:24.500
had<00:30:23.200><c> said</c><00:30:23.380><c> to</c><00:30:23.619><c> Moses,</c>

00:30:24.599 --> 00:30:27.400
Moses,<00:30:25.039><c> when</c><00:30:25.220><c> the</c><00:30:25.420><c> people</c><00:30:25.559><c> come</c><00:30:25.759><c> into</c><00:30:25.940><c> the</c><00:30:26.180><c> land,</c><00:30:27.039><c> there</c><00:30:27.039><c> is</c><00:30:27.259><c> a</c>

00:30:27.400 --> 00:30:29.420
place<00:30:27.640><c> that</c><00:30:27.819><c> I</c><00:30:27.920><c> will</c><00:30:28.140><c> tell</c><00:30:28.359><c> you.</c>

00:30:29.440 --> 00:30:32.119
And<00:30:29.680><c> there</c><00:30:30.220><c> sacrifice</c><00:30:30.819><c> will</c><00:30:31.019><c> be</c><00:30:31.259><c> made.</c>

00:30:32.900 --> 00:30:35.400
I<00:30:33.059><c> mean,</c><00:30:33.200><c> where</c><00:30:33.480><c> is</c><00:30:33.720><c> the</c><00:30:33.920><c> focus</c><00:30:34.240><c> of</c><00:30:34.440><c> this</c><00:30:34.680><c> people</c><00:30:34.839><c> going</c><00:30:35.079><c> to</c><00:30:35.299><c> be?</c>

00:30:35.500 --> 00:30:38.119
Well,<00:30:35.559><c> God</c><00:30:35.680><c> said,</c><00:30:35.900><c> I</c><00:30:35.940><c> have</c><00:30:36.559><c> in</c><00:30:36.660><c> mind</c><00:30:37.019><c> a</c><00:30:37.240><c> place.</c>

00:30:38.380 --> 00:30:39.579
Hadn't<00:30:38.680><c> said</c><00:30:38.799><c> what</c><00:30:38.940><c> it</c><00:30:39.099><c> would</c><00:30:39.259><c> be.</c>

00:30:40.019 --> 00:30:43.299
But<00:30:40.119><c> if</c><00:30:40.220><c> you</c><00:30:40.259><c> look</c><00:30:40.380><c> in</c><00:30:40.500><c> Deuteronomy</c><00:30:40.839><c> chapter</c><00:30:41.119><c> 12,</c><00:30:41.539><c> you</c><00:30:41.579><c> see</c><00:30:41.660><c> all</c><00:30:41.859><c> through</c><00:30:42.019><c> that</c><00:30:42.279><c> chapter</c><00:30:42.440><c> it</c><00:30:42.579><c> says,</c>

00:30:43.420 --> 00:30:45.640
in<00:30:43.420><c> the</c><00:30:43.660><c> place</c><00:30:43.859><c> that</c><00:30:44.019><c> he</c><00:30:44.240><c> shall</c><00:30:44.460><c> choose,</c><00:30:44.859><c> in</c><00:30:44.980><c> the</c><00:30:45.240><c> place</c><00:30:45.440><c> that</c>

00:30:45.640 --> 00:30:48.079
he<00:30:45.779><c> shall</c><00:30:46.059><c> choose,</c><00:30:46.579><c> God</c><00:30:46.779><c> shall</c><00:30:47.079><c> choose.</c>

00:30:49.200 --> 00:30:51.240
So<00:30:49.440><c> it</c><00:30:49.539><c> wasn't</c><00:30:49.740><c> really</c><00:30:50.039><c> just</c><00:30:50.259><c> a</c><00:30:50.319><c> matter</c><00:30:50.500><c> of</c><00:30:50.680><c> David</c><00:30:50.940><c> saying,</c><00:30:51.180><c> I</c>

00:30:51.240 --> 00:30:52.799
think<00:30:51.420><c> it</c><00:30:51.539><c> ought</c><00:30:51.619><c> to</c><00:30:51.740><c> be</c><00:30:51.900><c> here</c><00:30:52.180><c> or</c><00:30:52.440><c> there.</c>

00:30:52.799 --> 00:30:56.880
It<00:30:53.619><c> was</c><00:30:53.880><c> really</c><00:30:54.200><c> that</c><00:30:54.460><c> God</c><00:30:54.779><c> had</c><00:30:55.240><c> chosen</c><00:30:55.599><c> the</c><00:30:55.859><c> place.</c>

00:30:57.779 --> 00:30:59.519
And<00:30:58.200><c> David</c><00:30:58.420><c> perceived</c><00:30:58.940><c> that.</c>

00:30:59.740 --> 00:31:02.119
He<00:31:00.000><c> realized</c><00:31:00.420><c> that</c><00:31:00.680><c> was</c><00:31:01.019><c> the</c><00:31:01.279><c> fact.</c>

00:31:03.140 --> 00:31:06.220
And<00:31:03.519><c> there</c><00:31:03.599><c> was</c><00:31:03.720><c> another</c><00:31:03.940><c> incident</c><00:31:04.279><c> later</c><00:31:04.559><c> in</c><00:31:04.700><c> his</c><00:31:04.900><c> life</c><00:31:05.059><c> which</c><00:31:05.339><c> confirmed</c><00:31:05.900><c> that</c>

00:31:06.220 --> 00:31:09.920
fact<00:31:06.400><c> that</c><00:31:06.619><c> in</c><00:31:06.960><c> this</c><00:31:07.259><c> place</c><00:31:07.559><c> the</c><00:31:07.819><c> house</c><00:31:08.180><c> of</c><00:31:08.380><c> God</c><00:31:08.619><c> would</c><00:31:08.819><c> be</c><00:31:09.019><c> built.</c>

00:31:12.019 --> 00:31:15.279
So<00:31:12.400><c> this</c><00:31:12.579><c> was</c><00:31:12.819><c> not</c><00:31:13.099><c> just</c><00:31:13.519><c> David's</c><00:31:14.299><c> choice.</c>

00:31:16.099 --> 00:31:17.920
This<00:31:16.500><c> was</c><00:31:16.799><c> God's</c><00:31:17.319><c> choice.</c>

00:31:17.920 --> 00:31:22.140
In<00:31:18.900><c> one</c><00:31:19.079><c> of</c><00:31:19.180><c> the</c><00:31:19.359><c> Psalms</c><00:31:19.539><c> it</c><00:31:19.660><c> says,</c><00:31:20.099><c> here</c><00:31:20.299><c> will</c><00:31:20.559><c> I</c><00:31:20.799><c> rest.</c>

00:31:23.019 --> 00:31:25.940
This<00:31:23.200><c> is</c><00:31:23.460><c> my</c><00:31:23.799><c> rest</c><00:31:24.240><c> forever,</c><00:31:24.940><c> said</c><00:31:25.039><c> God.</c>

00:31:26.640 --> 00:31:31.019
So<00:31:26.880><c> Jerusalem</c><00:31:27.400><c> became</c><00:31:28.380><c> the</c><00:31:28.920><c> city</c><00:31:29.220><c> of</c><00:31:29.579><c> David</c><00:31:29.880><c> and</c><00:31:30.500><c> the</c><00:31:30.740><c> capital</c>

00:31:31.019 --> 00:31:32.559
city<00:31:31.319><c> of</c><00:31:31.539><c> the</c><00:31:31.700><c> kingdom.</c>

00:31:33.220 --> 00:31:38.240
Now<00:31:33.339><c> in</c><00:31:33.460><c> the</c><00:31:33.619><c> second</c><00:31:34.539><c> of</c><00:31:34.980><c> Samuel,</c><00:31:35.460><c> just</c><00:31:35.700><c> a</c><00:31:35.819><c> little</c><00:31:35.980><c> on,</c><00:31:36.579><c> in</c><00:31:36.700><c> chapter</c><00:31:37.000><c> 7,</c>

00:31:39.019 --> 00:31:42.059
the<00:31:39.099><c> most</c><00:31:39.359><c> interesting</c><00:31:40.119><c> incident</c><00:31:40.640><c> that</c><00:31:40.920><c> occurred.</c>

00:31:43.599 --> 00:31:46.980
David<00:31:43.920><c> in</c><00:31:44.099><c> fact</c><00:31:44.339><c> had</c><00:31:44.680><c> thought</c><00:31:44.920><c> that</c><00:31:45.119><c> he</c><00:31:45.220><c> would</c><00:31:45.440><c> build</c><00:31:45.839><c> God</c><00:31:46.220><c> a</c><00:31:46.480><c> house.</c>

00:31:47.480 --> 00:31:51.500
He<00:31:47.920><c> really</c><00:31:48.220><c> wanted</c><00:31:48.460><c> to</c><00:31:48.720><c> have</c><00:31:49.259><c> God</c><00:31:49.640><c> associated</c><00:31:50.339><c> with</c><00:31:50.599><c> his</c><00:31:50.880><c> capital</c><00:31:51.240><c> city</c>

00:31:51.500 --> 00:31:53.579
in<00:31:51.660><c> a</c><00:31:51.819><c> very</c><00:31:52.180><c> direct</c><00:31:52.460><c> way.</c>

00:31:54.140 --> 00:31:56.539
And<00:31:54.299><c> he</c><00:31:54.480><c> had</c><00:31:54.740><c> brought</c><00:31:54.880><c> the</c><00:31:55.220><c> ark</c><00:31:55.420><c> which</c><00:31:55.640><c> was</c><00:31:55.940><c> representative</c>

00:31:56.539 --> 00:31:57.480
of<00:31:56.740><c> God's</c><00:31:57.180><c> presence.</c>

00:31:57.720 --> 00:31:59.640
He<00:31:57.779><c> had</c><00:31:57.940><c> brought</c><00:31:58.079><c> that</c><00:31:58.359><c> back</c><00:31:58.519><c> from</c><00:31:58.700><c> the</c><00:31:58.880><c> countryside</c><00:31:59.259><c> and</c><00:31:59.480><c> he</c>

00:31:59.640 --> 00:32:00.579
brought<00:31:59.740><c> it</c><00:31:59.920><c> into</c><00:32:00.119><c> the</c><00:32:00.339><c> city.</c>

00:32:00.920 --> 00:32:03.980
But<00:32:01.039><c> it</c><00:32:01.240><c> actually</c><00:32:01.500><c> dwelt</c><00:32:02.059><c> in</c><00:32:02.839><c> a</c><00:32:02.920><c> sort</c><00:32:03.019><c> of</c><00:32:03.240><c> fabric,</c><00:32:03.599><c> like</c><00:32:03.799><c> a</c>

00:32:03.980 --> 00:32:04.759
tent<00:32:04.140><c> really.</c>

00:32:05.099 --> 00:32:07.940
It<00:32:05.180><c> was</c><00:32:05.339><c> called</c><00:32:05.599><c> the</c><00:32:06.359><c> Tabernacle</c><00:32:06.839><c> of</c><00:32:07.079><c> David.</c>

00:32:08.640 --> 00:32:10.539
And<00:32:08.859><c> David</c><00:32:09.000><c> was</c><00:32:09.220><c> embarrassed</c><00:32:09.640><c> by</c><00:32:09.819><c> that</c><00:32:10.019><c> because</c><00:32:10.220><c> he</c><00:32:10.380><c> looked</c>

00:32:10.539 --> 00:32:11.240
at<00:32:10.640><c> his</c><00:32:10.839><c> own</c><00:32:11.019><c> house.</c>

00:32:11.359 --> 00:32:12.440
He<00:32:11.359><c> thought</c><00:32:11.519><c> this</c><00:32:11.680><c> was</c><00:32:11.799><c> a</c><00:32:11.799><c> lovely</c><00:32:12.079><c> place.</c>

00:32:12.700 --> 00:32:15.400
Hiram<00:32:12.920><c> king</c><00:32:13.160><c> of</c><00:32:13.400><c> Tyre</c><00:32:13.619><c> has</c><00:32:13.799><c> come</c><00:32:13.920><c> as</c><00:32:14.079><c> we</c><00:32:14.259><c> read</c><00:32:14.359><c> there</c><00:32:14.579><c> and</c><00:32:15.059><c> brought</c><00:32:15.200><c> all</c>

00:32:15.400 --> 00:32:16.660
this<00:32:15.619><c> beautiful</c><00:32:16.039><c> timber</c><00:32:16.319><c> down</c>

00:32:16.660 --> 00:32:23.380
and<00:32:17.079><c> I</c><00:32:18.019><c> live</c><00:32:18.160><c> in</c><00:32:18.279><c> a</c><00:32:18.299><c> lovely</c><00:32:18.579><c> home</c><00:32:18.920><c> but</c><00:32:20.200><c> the</c><00:32:21.619><c> ark,</c><00:32:23.000><c> the</c><00:32:23.140><c> symbol</c>

00:32:23.380 --> 00:32:25.920
of<00:32:23.859><c> the</c><00:32:23.980><c> God</c><00:32:24.119><c> of</c><00:32:24.299><c> Israel,</c><00:32:24.980><c> dwells</c><00:32:25.160><c> in</c><00:32:25.480><c> tents.</c>

00:32:26.180 --> 00:32:28.980
It's<00:32:26.539><c> not</c><00:32:26.759><c> right.</c><00:32:26.980><c> I</c><00:32:27.140><c> don't</c><00:32:27.180><c> feel</c><00:32:27.380><c> comfortable</c><00:32:27.819><c> with</c><00:32:28.059><c> this.</c>

00:32:29.240 --> 00:32:32.220
So<00:32:29.420><c> he</c><00:32:29.599><c> said,</c><00:32:29.940><c> I'm</c><00:32:30.740><c> going</c><00:32:30.859><c> to</c><00:32:30.940><c> build</c><00:32:31.140><c> a</c><00:32:31.339><c> house.</c>

00:32:32.279 --> 00:32:34.400
But<00:32:32.440><c> God</c><00:32:32.599><c> had</c><00:32:32.720><c> other</c><00:32:32.960><c> things</c><00:32:33.180><c> in</c><00:32:33.420><c> mind</c><00:32:33.559><c> and</c><00:32:33.700><c> he</c><00:32:33.920><c> prevented</c><00:32:34.200><c> him</c>

00:32:34.400 --> 00:32:35.680
from<00:32:34.559><c> doing</c><00:32:34.740><c> that.</c>

00:32:35.819 --> 00:32:37.980
He<00:32:35.940><c> sent</c><00:32:36.099><c> the</c><00:32:36.319><c> prophet</c><00:32:36.539><c> Nathan</c><00:32:36.960><c> back</c><00:32:37.279><c> to</c><00:32:37.480><c> David</c><00:32:37.640><c> and</c><00:32:37.799><c> he</c><00:32:37.900><c> said,</c>

00:32:38.000 --> 00:32:39.220
look,<00:32:38.380><c> this</c><00:32:38.619><c> won't</c><00:32:38.859><c> be.</c>

00:32:39.579 --> 00:32:42.279
I<00:32:39.839><c> don't</c><00:32:40.000><c> really</c><00:32:40.279><c> need</c><00:32:40.539><c> you</c><00:32:40.880><c> to</c><00:32:41.140><c> provide</c><00:32:41.440><c> me</c><00:32:41.640><c> a</c><00:32:41.740><c> house.</c><00:32:41.960><c> I'll</c>

00:32:42.279 --> 00:32:44.940
work<00:32:42.400><c> things</c><00:32:42.619><c> out</c><00:32:43.160><c> my</c><00:32:43.579><c> own</c><00:32:43.940><c> time.</c>

00:32:45.960 --> 00:32:49.660
And<00:32:46.359><c> it's</c><00:32:46.759><c> not</c><00:32:46.980><c> that</c><00:32:47.799><c> I</c><00:32:47.960><c> need</c><00:32:48.140><c> Israel,</c><00:32:48.640><c> it's</c><00:32:48.700><c> that</c><00:32:48.819><c> Israel</c><00:32:49.099><c> needs</c><00:32:49.359><c> me.</c>

00:32:49.759 --> 00:32:52.019
I'm<00:32:50.059><c> the</c><00:32:50.180><c> one</c><00:32:50.319><c> that</c><00:32:50.519><c> directs</c><00:32:51.519><c> affairs.</c>

00:32:55.279 --> 00:32:57.180
And<00:32:55.339><c> it</c><00:32:55.420><c> was</c><00:32:55.660><c> quite</c><00:32:56.140><c> a</c><00:32:56.279><c> rebuff</c><00:32:56.680><c> to</c><00:32:56.900><c> David.</c>

00:32:57.359 --> 00:33:00.019
For<00:32:57.500><c> all</c><00:32:57.680><c> that</c><00:32:57.839><c> David</c><00:32:58.039><c> had</c><00:32:58.279><c> done,</c><00:32:58.759><c> life</c><00:32:59.240><c> was</c><00:32:59.519><c> swinging</c><00:32:59.759><c> along</c>

00:33:00.019 --> 00:33:01.640
with<00:33:00.200><c> him,</c><00:33:00.359><c> all</c><00:33:00.519><c> decisions</c><00:33:00.880><c> were</c><00:33:01.099><c> flowing</c><00:33:01.299><c> from</c><00:33:01.519><c> him.</c>

00:33:01.859 --> 00:33:05.160
Suddenly<00:33:02.259><c> he</c><00:33:02.420><c> was</c><00:33:02.619><c> rebuffed</c><00:33:03.000><c> by</c><00:33:03.259><c> God</c><00:33:03.660><c> and</c><00:33:04.460><c> he</c><00:33:04.640><c> felt</c><00:33:04.819><c> that.</c>

00:33:05.500 --> 00:33:08.599
However,<00:33:07.259><c> this</c><00:33:07.460><c> is</c><00:33:07.599><c> what</c><00:33:07.779><c> God</c><00:33:08.019><c> said</c><00:33:08.240><c> to</c><00:33:08.420><c> him.</c>

00:33:08.799 --> 00:33:11.059
Now<00:33:08.960><c> I</c><00:33:09.039><c> really</c><00:33:09.099><c> want</c><00:33:09.279><c> you</c><00:33:09.440><c> to</c><00:33:09.559><c> look</c><00:33:09.700><c> at</c><00:33:09.859><c> these</c><00:33:10.039><c> words</c><00:33:10.259><c> very</c><00:33:10.700><c> carefully.</c>

00:33:11.059 --> 00:33:14.559
And<00:33:11.819><c> as</c><00:33:11.980><c> we</c><00:33:12.119><c> read</c><00:33:12.259><c> them,</c><00:33:12.759><c> think,</c><00:33:12.980><c> have</c><00:33:13.140><c> you</c><00:33:13.299><c> ever</c><00:33:13.519><c> read</c><00:33:13.759><c> anything</c><00:33:14.200><c> like</c>

00:33:14.559 --> 00:33:17.440
this<00:33:14.799><c> anywhere</c><00:33:15.339><c> else</c><00:33:15.720><c> in</c><00:33:15.900><c> the</c><00:33:16.039><c> history</c><00:33:16.339><c> of</c><00:33:16.539><c> men?</c>

00:33:18.059 --> 00:33:21.559
This<00:33:18.240><c> is</c><00:33:18.440><c> God</c><00:33:18.660><c> speaking</c><00:33:19.059><c> to</c><00:33:19.319><c> a</c><00:33:19.460><c> man.</c><00:33:20.279><c> Verse</c><00:33:20.339><c> 12.</c>

00:33:22.180 --> 00:33:27.680
When<00:33:22.380><c> thy</c><00:33:22.740><c> days</c><00:33:23.180><c> be</c><00:33:23.500><c> fulfilled</c><00:33:24.200><c> and</c><00:33:26.039><c> thou</c><00:33:26.319><c> shalt</c><00:33:26.700><c> sleep</c><00:33:27.299><c> with</c>

00:33:27.680 --> 00:33:29.119
thy<00:33:27.960><c> fathers,</c>

00:33:29.960 --> 00:33:31.839
in<00:33:30.079><c> other</c><00:33:30.220><c> words,</c><00:33:30.480><c> when</c><00:33:30.640><c> you</c><00:33:30.819><c> are</c><00:33:30.980><c> dead,</c>

00:33:33.640 --> 00:33:38.539
I<00:33:33.940><c> will</c><00:33:34.220><c> set</c><00:33:34.500><c> up</c><00:33:34.740><c> thy</c><00:33:35.099><c> seed</c><00:33:35.500><c> after</c><00:33:36.039><c> thee,</c><00:33:36.579><c> your</c><00:33:37.440><c> children,</c>

00:33:38.799 --> 00:33:41.599

They<00:36:42.360><c> are</c><00:36:42.619><c> remarkable</c><00:36:43.179><c> words.</c>

00:36:43.460 --> 00:36:45.559
You<00:36:43.599><c> know,</c><00:36:43.679><c> when</c><00:36:43.880><c> David</c><00:36:44.119><c> heard</c><00:36:44.320><c> those</c><00:36:44.579><c> words,</c><00:36:45.199><c> he</c><00:36:45.340><c> was</c>

00:36:47.340 --> 00:36:52.320
He<00:36:47.820><c> said</c><00:36:48.099><c> in</c><00:36:48.780><c> his</c><00:36:49.059><c> response,</c><00:36:49.780><c> he</c><00:36:49.800><c> says</c><00:36:50.260><c> in</c><00:36:51.320><c> verse</c><00:36:51.639><c> 19,</c>

00:37:03.199 --> 00:37:04.460
Of<00:37:03.360><c> course</c><00:37:03.420><c> it's</c><00:37:03.579><c> not</c><00:37:03.760><c> the</c><00:37:03.860><c> manner</c><00:37:04.079><c> of</c><00:37:04.280><c> man.</c>

00:37:09.019 --> 00:37:12.420
But<00:37:09.219><c> you've</c><00:37:09.559><c> spoken</c><00:37:09.820><c> of</c><00:37:09.980><c> this</c><00:37:10.280><c> as</c><00:37:10.880><c> prevailing</c><00:37:11.480><c> forever.</c>

00:37:13.119 --> 00:37:17.760
It<00:37:13.699><c> was</c><00:37:13.920><c> an</c><00:37:14.199><c> astounding</c><00:37:14.880><c> thing</c><00:37:15.280><c> that</c><00:37:15.480><c> God</c><00:37:15.679><c> was</c><00:37:15.960><c> saying</c><00:37:16.260><c> to</c><00:37:16.800><c> David.</c>

00:37:18.360 --> 00:37:21.780
Can<00:37:18.539><c> you</c><00:37:18.579><c> see</c><00:37:18.679><c> now</c><00:37:18.960><c> why</c><00:37:19.599><c> the</c><00:37:20.659><c> Jewish</c><00:37:20.920><c> people,</c><00:37:21.280><c> when</c><00:37:21.440><c> they</c><00:37:21.659><c> had</c>

00:37:26.480 --> 00:37:28.659
Makes<00:37:27.019><c> sense,</c><00:37:27.619><c> doesn't</c><00:37:27.780><c> it?</c>

00:37:29.280 --> 00:37:32.300
Can<00:37:29.480><c> you</c><00:37:29.659><c> see</c><00:37:29.820><c> now</c><00:37:30.119><c> why</c><00:37:30.579><c> Ehud</c><00:37:31.000><c> Bayrak</c><00:37:31.440><c> says</c><00:37:31.780><c> to</c><00:37:32.000><c> the</c><00:37:32.159><c> world,</c>

I<00:37:32.480><c> can't</c><00:37:32.860><c> give</c><00:37:33.019><c> Jerusalem</c><00:37:33.539><c> away?</c>

00:37:36.219 --> 00:37:38.460
This<00:37:36.619><c> is</c><00:37:37.280><c> the</c><00:37:37.400><c> background.</c>

00:37:39.059 --> 00:37:42.619
Because<00:37:39.500><c> this</c><00:37:39.719><c> is</c><00:37:40.019><c> all</c><00:37:40.340><c> the</c><00:37:40.519><c> hope</c><00:37:40.659><c> of</c><00:37:40.860><c> that</c><00:37:41.039><c> people.</c>

00:37:43.699 --> 00:37:45.260
It's<00:37:43.940><c> rooted</c><00:37:44.139><c> here.</c>

00:37:45.900 --> 00:37:48.820
He<00:37:46.000><c> probably</c><00:37:46.219><c> couldn't</c><00:37:46.539><c> enunciate</c><00:37:47.699><c> that</c><00:37:48.139><c> quite</c><00:37:48.360><c> so</c><00:37:48.599><c> clearly</c>

00:37:48.820 --> 00:37:51.500

But<00:37:51.719><c> this</c><00:37:51.940><c> is</c><00:37:52.159><c> the</c><00:37:52.300><c> reason.</c>

00:37:53.659 --> 00:37:55.679
Not<00:37:53.800><c> a</c><00:37:54.119><c> shadow</c><00:37:54.300><c> of</c><00:37:54.420><c> a</c><00:37:54.500><c> doubt</c><00:37:54.539><c> about</c><00:37:54.840><c> it.</c>

00:37:56.179 --> 00:37:58.599
It<00:37:56.219><c> was</c><00:37:56.400><c> never</c><00:37:56.679><c> any</c><00:37:57.079><c> time</c><00:37:57.300><c> that</c><00:37:57.440><c> God</c><00:37:57.579><c> ever</c><00:37:57.900><c> spoke</c><00:37:58.079><c> to</c><00:37:58.260><c> any</c><00:37:58.440><c> man</c>

00:37:58.599 --> 00:37:59.980
like<00:37:58.960><c> that.</c>

00:38:00.500 --> 00:38:04.300
And<00:38:00.619><c> said,</c><00:38:01.099><c> this</c><00:38:01.099><c> place,</c><00:38:02.059><c> this</c><00:38:02.340><c> place,</c><00:38:03.039><c> my</c><00:38:03.260><c> son</c><00:38:03.480><c> and</c><00:38:03.659><c> your</c><00:38:03.960><c> son.</c>

00:38:04.800 --> 00:38:06.159
Because<00:38:04.940><c> that's</c><00:38:05.079><c> really</c><00:38:05.260><c> what</c><00:38:05.360><c> it's</c><00:38:05.559><c> saying,</c><00:38:05.800><c> isn't</c><00:38:05.960><c> it?</c>

00:38:06.159 --> 00:38:09.420
David<00:38:06.659><c> would</c><00:38:06.780><c> be</c><00:38:06.880><c> your</c><00:38:07.199><c> son,</c><00:38:07.440><c> that</c><00:38:07.519><c> would</c><00:38:07.559><c> be</c><00:38:07.719><c> my</c><00:38:08.039><c> son</c><00:38:08.280><c> too.</c>

00:38:09.619 --> 00:38:11.340
Pretty<00:38:09.820><c> special</c><00:38:10.219><c> person.</c>

00:38:11.960 --> 00:38:14.219
Heaven<00:38:12.099><c> and</c><00:38:12.280><c> Earth</c><00:38:12.519><c> would</c><00:38:12.820><c> combine</c><00:38:13.139><c> together</c>

What<00:38:18.159><c> a</c><00:38:18.340><c> glorious</c><00:38:18.639><c> thing.</c>

00:38:19.260 --> 00:38:20.340
And<00:38:19.380><c> God</c><00:38:19.519><c> never</c><00:38:19.780><c> forgot</c><00:38:20.079><c> that.</c>

00:38:20.519 --> 00:38:24.139
You<00:38:20.699><c> turn</c><00:38:20.880><c> with</c><00:38:21.079><c> me,</c><00:38:21.619><c> if</c><00:38:21.820><c> you</c><00:38:22.079><c> would,</c><00:38:22.380><c> to</c><00:38:22.519><c> those</c><00:38:22.780><c> Psalms</c><00:38:23.139><c> again.</c>

Psalm<00:38:26.159><c> 132.</c>

00:38:26.920 --> 00:38:28.900
Oh,<00:38:27.079><c> you</c><00:38:27.139><c> could</c><00:38:27.320><c> go</c><00:38:27.579><c> lots</c><00:38:27.900><c> of</c><00:38:28.099><c> places</c><00:38:28.340><c> in</c><00:38:28.559><c> the</c><00:38:28.739><c> Psalms.</c>

00:38:31.519 --> 00:38:33.340
But<00:38:31.699><c> we'll</c><00:38:31.840><c> go</c><00:38:31.980><c> to</c><00:38:32.139><c> Psalm</c><00:38:32.320><c> 132.</c>

00:38:33.340 --> 00:38:36.619
It's<00:38:33.579><c> a</c><00:38:33.619><c> very</c><00:38:34.019><c> clear</c><00:38:34.719><c> statement.</c>

00:38:40.039 --> 00:38:44.579

It<00:47:00.300><c> was</c><00:47:00.480><c> still</c><00:47:00.719><c> there.</c>

00:47:01.039 --> 00:47:04.840
So<00:47:01.880><c> this</c><00:47:02.119><c> was</c><00:47:02.380><c> in</c><00:47:02.400><c> a</c><00:47:02.619><c> sense</c><00:47:02.800><c> prophetic</c><00:47:03.260><c> that</c><00:47:03.480><c> there</c><00:47:03.619><c> would</c><00:47:03.780><c> come</c><00:47:03.980><c> a</c><00:47:04.139><c> time</c>

00:47:04.840 --> 00:47:06.500
when<00:47:05.260><c> the</c><00:47:05.679><c> kingdom</c><00:47:05.920><c> of</c><00:47:06.159><c> David,</c>

00:47:10.699 --> 00:47:13.059
In<00:47:10.699><c> that</c><00:47:10.880><c> day</c><00:47:11.119><c> will</c><00:47:11.280><c> I</c><00:47:11.539><c> raise</c><00:47:11.860><c> up</c><00:47:12.099><c> the</c><00:47:12.280><c> tabernacle</c><00:47:12.619><c> of</c><00:47:12.780><c> David</c>

00:47:13.699 --> 00:47:15.900

00:47:16.219 --> 00:47:18.539

00:47:18.539 --> 00:47:19.420
the<00:47:18.679><c> days</c><00:47:18.860><c> of</c><00:47:19.099><c> old</c>

00:47:19.420 --> 00:47:22.940

00:47:26.659 --> 00:47:28.239
In<00:47:26.900><c> other</c><00:47:27.119><c> words,</c>

00:47:28.420 --> 00:47:31.840
there's<00:47:28.900><c> going</c><00:47:29.039><c> to</c><00:47:29.159><c> be</c><00:47:29.320><c> a</c><00:47:29.559><c> restoration</c><00:47:30.039><c> of</c><00:47:30.280><c> all</c><00:47:30.599><c> the</c><00:47:31.059><c> times</c>

00:47:31.840 --> 00:47:34.519

00:47:34.639 --> 00:47:36.780
When<00:47:34.679><c> David</c><00:47:35.199><c> was</c><00:47:35.679><c> upon</c><00:47:36.039><c> this</c><00:47:36.340><c> city</c>

00:47:36.780 --> 00:47:39.360

00:47:39.360 --> 00:47:41.500
and<00:47:40.239><c> it</c><00:47:40.360><c> was</c><00:47:40.519><c> the</c><00:47:40.780><c> throne</c><00:47:40.960><c> of</c><00:47:41.159><c> the</c><00:47:41.280><c> Lord</c>

00:47:41.500 --> 00:47:44.699
and<00:47:41.920><c> I'm</c><00:47:42.079><c> going</c><00:47:42.179><c> to</c><00:47:42.460><c> bring</c><00:47:42.659><c> that</c><00:47:43.000><c> time</c><00:47:43.239><c> back</c><00:47:43.599><c> says</c><00:47:43.760><c> God.</c>

00:47:45.380 --> 00:47:48.440
And<00:47:45.519><c> that</c><00:47:45.760><c> time</c><00:47:45.920><c> he</c><00:47:46.079><c> said</c><00:47:46.260><c> the</c><00:47:46.639><c> heathen</c><00:47:47.239><c> will</c><00:47:47.480><c> respond</c><00:47:48.079><c> to</c><00:47:48.300><c> that.</c>

00:47:48.480 --> 00:47:51.400
They<00:47:48.579><c> will</c><00:47:48.739><c> be</c><00:47:48.920><c> my</c><00:47:49.239><c> people</c><00:47:49.519><c> and</c><00:47:49.719><c> respond</c><00:47:50.139><c> to</c><00:47:50.340><c> my</c><00:47:50.519><c> name.</c>

00:47:52.219 --> 00:47:54.059
So<00:47:52.360><c> it's</c><00:47:52.360><c> a</c><00:47:52.500><c> very</c><00:47:52.800><c> thrilling</c><00:47:53.079><c> passage</c><00:47:53.460><c> of</c><00:47:53.679><c> Scripture</c>

00:47:54.059 --> 00:47:57.280
which<00:47:54.699><c> shows</c><00:47:55.000><c> that</c><00:47:55.219><c> our</c><00:47:55.420><c> God</c><00:47:55.599><c> is</c><00:47:56.039><c> faithful</c><00:47:56.380><c> to</c><00:47:56.579><c> the</c><00:47:56.719><c> things</c><00:47:56.880><c> that</c><00:47:57.039><c> he</c><00:47:57.179><c> said.</c>

00:47:57.280 --> 00:48:00.500
He<00:47:57.380><c> doesn't</c><00:47:57.559><c> forget</c><00:47:58.079><c> what</c><00:47:58.579><c> he</c><00:47:58.780><c> said</c><00:47:59.019><c> here</c><00:47:59.579><c> and</c><00:47:59.860><c> sworn</c><00:48:00.119><c> by</c>

00:48:05.639 --> 00:48:08.219
What's<00:48:05.800><c> the</c><00:48:05.900><c> first</c><00:48:06.159><c> words,</c><00:48:07.039><c> my</c><00:48:07.179><c> dear</c><00:48:07.340><c> friends?</c>

00:48:10.539 --> 00:48:12.539
We've<00:48:10.760><c> looked</c><00:48:10.860><c> in</c><00:48:11.000><c> the</c><00:48:11.119><c> Old</c><00:48:11.300><c> Testament,</c><00:48:11.699><c> haven't</c><00:48:11.780><c> we?</c>

00:48:53.840 --> 00:48:54.880
That's<00:48:54.139><c> faithful,</c><00:48:54.739><c> isn't</c><00:48:54.739><c> it?</c>

00:48:55.019 --> 00:48:58.219
The<00:48:55.239><c> very</c><00:48:55.739><c> opening</c><00:48:56.199><c> words</c><00:48:56.639><c> of</c><00:48:56.900><c> the</c><00:48:57.000><c> New</c><00:48:57.219><c> Testament.</c>

00:48:58.599 --> 00:49:00.820

00:49:03.179 --> 00:49:04.639
Here<00:49:03.380><c> he</c><00:49:03.619><c> is.</c>

00:49:04.920 --> 00:49:06.719
And<00:49:05.019><c> when</c><00:49:05.119><c> he</c><00:49:05.300><c> comes</c><00:49:05.800><c> into</c><00:49:06.179><c> the</c><00:49:06.420><c> world,</c>

00:49:19.800 --> 00:49:21.840

00:53:58.760 --> 00:54:02.079

00:54:02.079 --> 00:54:03.099
greatest<00:54:02.420><c> significance.</c>

00:54:03.139 --> 00:54:06.199
When<00:54:03.380><c> God</c><00:54:03.599><c> said</c><00:54:03.840><c> in</c><00:54:04.000><c> Zechariah</c><00:54:04.400><c> 12,</c><00:54:05.239><c> if</c><00:54:05.300><c> men</c><00:54:05.579><c> are</c><00:54:05.780><c> going</c><00:54:05.940><c> to</c>

00:54:12.699 --> 00:54:15.960
They<00:54:12.880><c> went</c><00:54:13.019><c> to</c><00:54:13.260><c> Camp</c><00:54:13.460><c> David</c><00:54:13.940><c> and</c><00:54:14.960><c> these</c><00:54:15.139><c> two</c><00:54:15.300><c> men</c><00:54:15.480><c> desperately</c>

00:54:18.619 --> 00:54:20.440
Israel<00:54:18.980><c> doesn't</c><00:54:19.239><c> want</c><00:54:19.400><c> to</c><00:54:19.519><c> be</c><00:54:19.679><c> fighting</c><00:54:20.000><c> forever.</c>

00:54:20.840 --> 00:54:22.820
If<00:54:20.940><c> you</c><00:54:21.099><c> speak</c><00:54:21.320><c> to</c><00:54:21.480><c> an</c><00:54:21.679><c> Israeli</c><00:54:21.920><c> about</c><00:54:22.179><c> why</c><00:54:22.380><c> they're</c><00:54:22.619><c> prepared</c>

00:54:24.800 --> 00:54:26.860
they'll<00:54:25.039><c> say,</c><00:54:25.239><c> for</c><00:54:25.320><c> goodness</c><00:54:25.559><c> sake,</c><00:54:25.960><c> we've</c><00:54:26.059><c> had</c><00:54:26.159><c> wars,</c><00:54:26.460><c> wars,</c><00:54:26.840><c> wars.</c>

00:54:26.980 --> 00:54:28.380
We're<00:54:27.079><c> sick</c><00:54:27.300><c> of</c><00:54:27.480><c> wars.</c>

00:54:28.599 --> 00:54:30.340
Our<00:54:28.820><c> people</c><00:54:29.000><c> want</c><00:54:29.239><c> peace.</c>

00:54:30.599 --> 00:54:32.360
Our<00:54:30.780><c> people</c><00:54:30.900><c> want</c><00:54:31.119><c> prosperity.</c>

00:54:32.440 --> 00:54:34.199

00:54:34.300 --> 00:54:35.519
We<00:54:34.360><c> saw</c><00:54:34.460><c> the</c><00:54:34.619><c> good</c><00:54:34.760><c> things</c><00:54:34.960><c> they've</c><00:54:35.360><c> got.</c>

00:54:35.980 --> 00:54:36.840
We<00:54:36.199><c> want</c><00:54:36.340><c> to</c><00:54:36.440><c> have</c><00:54:36.519><c> it</c><00:54:36.719><c> here.</c>

00:54:36.900 --> 00:54:39.579
Why<00:54:37.059><c> do</c><00:54:37.139><c> we</c><00:54:37.239><c> want</c><00:54:37.340><c> to</c><00:54:37.440><c> be</c><00:54:37.659><c> at</c><00:54:37.679><c> loggerheads</c><00:54:38.579><c> with</c><00:54:38.739><c> these</c><00:54:38.980><c> people</c><00:54:39.159><c> forever?</c>

00:54:39.679 --> 00:54:41.579
That's<00:54:39.880><c> what</c><00:54:39.960><c> they</c><00:54:40.199><c> want,</c><00:54:40.440><c> peace.</c>

00:54:42.500 --> 00:54:43.880

00:54:44.099 --> 00:54:45.460
That's<00:54:44.380><c> what</c><00:54:44.440><c> they</c><00:54:44.679><c> want.</c>

00:54:45.579 --> 00:54:47.880
What<00:54:46.059><c> the</c><00:54:46.199><c> rest</c><00:54:46.360><c> of</c><00:54:46.539><c> the</c><00:54:46.599><c> world's</c><00:54:47.039><c> got.</c>

00:54:48.179 --> 00:54:50.460
Do<00:54:48.280><c> you</c><00:54:48.300><c> think</c><00:54:48.420><c> the</c><00:54:48.679><c> Palestinians</c><00:54:49.059><c> want</c><00:54:49.320><c> wars</c><00:54:49.559><c> forever?</c>

00:54:51.860 --> 00:54:53.579
What<00:54:52.059><c> good</c><00:54:52.199><c> is</c><00:54:52.360><c> it</c><00:54:52.519><c> to</c><00:54:52.639><c> them?</c>

00:54:54.539 --> 00:54:56.559
Do<00:54:54.639><c> you</c><00:54:54.679><c> think</c><00:54:54.679><c> the</c><00:54:54.840><c> Arabs</c><00:54:54.960><c> want</c><00:54:55.199><c> wars</c><00:54:55.539><c> forever?</c>

00:54:58.059 --> 00:55:02.179
So<00:54:58.239><c> they</c><00:54:58.480><c> try</c><00:54:58.719><c> to</c><00:54:59.119><c> deal</c><00:54:59.260><c> with</c><00:54:59.480><c> Jerusalem</c><00:54:59.880><c> and</c><00:55:00.039><c> they</c><00:55:00.219><c> can't</c><00:55:00.500><c> deal</c><00:55:00.699><c> with</c><00:55:00.880><c> it.</c>

00:55:02.219 --> 00:55:03.300
There's<00:55:02.519><c> intransigence.</c>

00:55:03.760 --> 00:55:05.579
God<00:55:03.980><c> said,</c><00:55:04.519><c> you</c><00:55:04.519><c> won't</c><00:55:04.800><c> solve</c><00:55:05.039><c> that</c><00:55:05.320><c> problem.</c>

00:55:06.059 --> 00:55:07.820
I'll<00:55:06.360><c> solve</c><00:55:06.599><c> the</c><00:55:06.820><c> problem.</c>

00:55:09.219 --> 00:55:11.679
The<00:55:09.699><c> most</c><00:55:10.139><c> intriguing</c><00:55:10.519><c> thing</c><00:55:10.800><c> is,</c><00:55:11.079><c> which</c><00:55:11.260><c> you</c><00:55:11.360><c> should</c><00:55:11.460><c> really</c>

stand<00:55:11.840><c> back</c><00:55:12.019><c> and</c><00:55:12.179><c> think</c><00:55:12.380><c> about</c><00:55:12.599><c> it,</c>

00:55:14.340 --> 00:55:17.900
Israel<00:55:14.820><c> might</c><00:55:15.079><c> have</c><00:55:15.360><c> the</c><00:55:15.780><c> Star</c><00:55:16.079><c> of</c><00:55:16.320><c> David</c><00:55:16.579><c> in</c><00:55:16.780><c> its</c><00:55:17.019><c> flag.</c>

00:55:18.599 --> 00:55:22.119
We<00:55:18.780><c> said</c><00:55:18.920><c> before</c><00:55:19.340><c> that</c><00:55:19.960><c> the</c><00:55:20.300><c> Palestinians</c><00:55:20.679><c> got</c><00:55:21.019><c> no</c><00:55:21.320><c> right.</c>

00:55:22.400 --> 00:55:24.940
There's<00:55:22.619><c> no</c><00:55:22.780><c> historic</c><00:55:23.239><c> right,</c><00:55:23.539><c> there's</c><00:55:23.659><c> no</c><00:55:23.880><c> echo</c><00:55:24.159><c> in</c><00:55:24.320><c> the</c><00:55:24.480><c> scripture</c><00:55:24.719><c> of</c>

00:55:30.880 --> 00:55:32.579

00:55:35.719 --> 00:55:37.980
When<00:55:36.199><c> David</c><00:55:36.500><c> went</c><00:55:36.739><c> to</c><00:55:36.940><c> battle,</c><00:55:37.139><c> he</c><00:55:37.239><c> made</c><00:55:37.440><c> prayer</c><00:55:37.659><c> to</c><00:55:37.780><c> God.</c>

00:55:38.079 --> 00:55:39.659
Does<00:55:38.280><c> Israel</c><00:55:38.599><c> do</c><00:55:38.760><c> that?</c>

00:55:40.239 --> 00:55:44.760
Is<00:55:40.840><c> Israel</c><00:55:41.139><c> nation</c><00:55:41.539><c> given</c><00:55:42.239><c> to</c><00:55:43.300><c> dependence</c><00:55:43.619><c> upon</c><00:55:43.960><c> God</c><00:55:44.300><c> or</c><00:55:44.579><c> to</c>

00:55:50.239 --> 00:55:54.159
The<00:55:50.300><c> answer</c><00:55:50.480><c> to</c><00:55:50.619><c> that</c><00:55:50.780><c> is</c><00:55:51.239><c> quite</c><00:55:51.500><c> clear,</c><00:55:52.039><c> unfortunately,</c><00:55:52.559><c> today.</c>

00:55:54.539 --> 00:55:58.579

The<01:04:33.440><c> zeal</c><01:04:33.719><c> of</c><01:04:33.880><c> the</c><01:04:34.000><c> Lord</c><01:04:34.159><c> of</c><01:04:34.300><c> hosts</c><01:04:34.480><c> will</c><01:04:34.719><c> establish</c><01:04:35.159><c> this.</c>

01:04:35.820 --> 01:04:39.460
How<01:04:36.139><c> dare</c><01:04:36.420><c> men</c><01:04:36.679><c> say</c><01:04:37.199><c> what</c><01:04:38.139><c> might</c><01:04:38.500><c> happen.</c>

01:04:40.860 --> 01:04:43.840
You<01:04:40.920><c> know,</c><01:04:41.219><c> Arafat</c><01:04:41.480><c> pushed</c><01:04:41.760><c> the</c><01:04:41.960><c> thing</c><01:04:42.079><c> even</c><01:04:42.420><c> further.</c>

01:04:48.039 --> 01:04:50.699
Just<01:04:48.559><c> a</c><01:04:48.719><c> few</c><01:04:48.820><c> days</c><01:04:49.059><c> after</c><01:04:49.400><c> that,</c>

to<01:04:56.099><c> you.</c>

01:04:57.139 --> 01:04:59.840
He<01:04:57.340><c> had</c><01:04:57.460><c> them</c><01:04:57.619><c> up</c><01:04:57.820><c> to</c><01:04:58.000><c> Jerusalem,</c><01:04:58.480><c> to</c><01:04:58.639><c> the</c><01:04:58.820><c> Greek</c><01:04:59.059><c> Patriarchate.</c>

01:05:00.159 --> 01:05:05.079
That<01:05:00.340><c> is</c><01:05:00.579><c> where</c><01:05:01.300><c> the</c><01:05:01.760><c> Patriarch</c><01:05:02.059><c> comes</c><01:05:02.460><c> to</c><01:05:02.739><c> live</c><01:05:02.900><c> when</c><01:05:03.119><c> he</c><01:05:03.380><c> comes</c><01:05:03.760><c> to</c><01:05:04.039><c> Jerusalem.</c>

Orthodox<01:05:14.460><c> Church.</c>

01:05:17.360 --> 01:05:23.340
So<01:05:17.539><c> here,</c><01:05:18.360><c> right</c><01:05:18.719><c> under</c><01:05:19.760><c> the</c><01:05:19.840><c> very</c><01:05:20.280><c> nose</c><01:05:21.119><c> of</c><01:05:21.679><c> the</c><01:05:21.840><c> Israeli</c><01:05:22.179><c> state,</c>

Arafat<01:05:23.619><c> invites</c><01:05:24.099><c> these</c><01:05:24.320><c> men</c><01:05:24.519><c> and</c><01:05:24.900><c> then</c><01:05:25.099><c> has</c><01:05:25.340><c> them</c><01:05:25.539><c> to</c><01:05:25.760><c> be</c><01:05:26.059><c> fated</c>

01:05:30.500 --> 01:05:33.880
This<01:05:30.800><c> critical</c><01:05:31.480><c> hour</c><01:05:31.760><c> when</c><01:05:31.880><c> he's</c><01:05:32.079><c> trying</c><01:05:32.280><c> to</c><01:05:32.619><c> motivate</c><01:05:33.019><c> world</c><01:05:33.340><c> opinion</c>

01:05:33.880 --> 01:05:39.579
that<01:05:34.920><c> Israel</c><01:05:35.320><c> should</c><01:05:35.639><c> not</c><01:05:35.940><c> have</c><01:05:36.159><c> that</c><01:05:36.460><c> as</c><01:05:36.679><c> their</c><01:05:36.920><c> capital</c><01:05:37.480><c> plays</c><01:05:38.300><c> right</c><01:05:38.800><c> into</c><01:05:39.079><c> it.</c>

01:05:39.579 --> 01:05:41.880
The<01:05:39.920><c> title</c><01:05:40.179><c> was</c><01:05:40.380><c> once</c><01:05:40.719><c> used,</c><01:05:41.079><c> incidentally,</c>

01:05:42.239 --> 01:05:45.019
the<01:05:42.300><c> Knights</c><01:05:42.480><c> of</c><01:05:42.659><c> the</c><01:05:42.739><c> Holy</c><01:05:43.039><c> Sepulchre</c><01:05:43.280><c> was</c><01:05:43.460><c> once</c><01:05:43.840><c> used</c><01:05:44.440><c> by</c>

01:05:45.019 --> 01:05:46.539
the<01:05:45.239><c> Crusaders</c>

01:05:46.579 --> 01:05:50.119
when<01:05:47.300><c> they</c><01:05:47.460><c> were</c><01:05:47.679><c> defending</c><01:05:48.099><c> Jerusalem</c><01:05:48.599><c> from</c><01:05:48.820><c> the</c><01:05:49.000><c> Muslims.</c>

01:05:50.719 --> 01:05:55.099
Now<01:05:50.920><c> a</c><01:05:51.039><c> Muslim</c><01:05:51.360><c> leader</c><01:05:52.139><c> has</c><01:05:53.239><c> Christian</c><01:05:54.079><c> men</c>

01:06:02.000 --> 01:06:04.659
Well,<01:06:02.239><c> what</c><01:06:02.460><c> have</c><01:06:02.500><c> they</c><01:06:02.800><c> wrested</c><01:06:03.219><c> Jerusalem</c><01:06:03.699><c> from?</c>

01:06:06.960 --> 01:06:09.980
The<01:06:07.519><c> implication</c><01:06:08.079><c> is</c><01:06:08.480><c> that</c><01:06:08.599><c> they're</c><01:06:08.880><c> wresting</c><01:06:09.260><c> it</c><01:06:09.440><c> from</c><01:06:09.760><c> the</c>

01:06:09.980 --> 01:06:11.059
Jewish<01:06:10.219><c> people.</c>

01:06:11.380 --> 01:06:15.699
And<01:06:11.559><c> a</c><01:06:11.820><c> Muslim</c><01:06:12.340><c> is</c><01:06:14.039><c> the</c><01:06:14.179><c> one</c><01:06:14.280><c> that</c><01:06:14.519><c> invites</c><01:06:14.800><c> them</c><01:06:15.000><c> to</c><01:06:15.260><c> come</c>

01:06:15.699 --> 01:06:19.679
and<01:06:16.400><c> arranges</c><01:06:16.860><c> for</c><01:06:17.219><c> this</c><01:06:18.059><c> declaration</c><01:06:18.719><c> of</c><01:06:18.960><c> this</c><01:06:19.159><c> new</c><01:06:19.380><c> standing.</c>

01:06:19.980 --> 01:06:21.860
What<01:06:20.159><c> an</c><01:06:20.440><c> incredible</c><01:06:20.900><c> saga.</c>

01:06:22.800 --> 01:06:25.760
The<01:06:23.000><c> whole</c><01:06:23.280><c> thing</c><01:06:23.539><c> is</c><01:06:23.760><c> utterly</c><01:06:24.099><c> twisted</c><01:06:24.519><c> up,</c><01:06:24.900><c> isn't</c><01:06:24.980><c> it?</c>

01:06:26.579 --> 01:06:30.300
And<01:06:26.760><c> so</c><01:06:26.840><c> the</c><01:06:27.059><c> world</c><01:06:27.219><c> is</c><01:06:27.440><c> invited</c><01:06:27.780><c> to</c><01:06:27.960><c> be</c><01:06:28.199><c> involved</c><01:06:28.559><c> in</c><01:06:28.940><c> this</c><01:06:29.300><c> dispute.</c>

01:06:30.659 --> 01:06:32.539
The<01:06:30.760><c> United</c><01:06:31.019><c> Nations</c><01:06:31.300><c> hasn't</c><01:06:31.579><c> been</c><01:06:31.840><c> involved</c><01:06:32.199><c> in</c><01:06:32.400><c> this.</c>

01:06:32.539 --> 01:06:39.039
Mr.<01:06:33.239><c> Clinton</c><01:06:33.800><c> with</c><01:06:37.780><c> his</c><01:06:38.039><c> record?</c>

01:06:42.400 --> 01:06:47.079
Dividing<01:06:42.960><c> up</c><01:06:43.219><c> the</c><01:06:43.559><c> holy</c><01:06:43.920><c> city</c><01:06:44.500><c> where</c><01:06:45.699><c> Jesus</c><01:06:46.119><c> died</c>

01:06:47.780 --> 01:06:50.340
and<01:06:48.340><c> where</c><01:06:48.559><c> he</c><01:06:48.679><c> will</c><01:06:48.860><c> yet</c><01:06:49.039><c> come</c><01:06:49.260><c> again?</c>

01:06:51.719 --> 01:06:55.079
It's<01:06:52.059><c> gross,</c><01:06:53.139><c> awful,</c><01:06:53.800><c> it's</c><01:06:53.940><c> fickle.</c>

01:06:55.480 --> 01:06:57.320
But<01:06:55.639><c> that's</c><01:06:55.800><c> how</c><01:06:56.000><c> the</c><01:06:56.179><c> world</c><01:06:56.320><c> is</c><01:06:56.519><c> starting</c><01:06:56.780><c> to</c><01:06:56.980><c> think</c><01:06:57.119><c> about</c>

01:06:57.320 --> 01:06:57.940
it,<01:06:57.440><c> my</c><01:06:57.559><c> dear</c><01:06:57.719><c> friends.</c>

01:06:57.940 --> 01:07:00.579
And<01:06:58.199><c> so</c><01:06:58.420><c> it's</c><01:06:58.579><c> been</c><01:06:58.760><c> really</c><01:06:59.079><c> good</c><01:06:59.260><c> to</c><01:06:59.440><c> come</c><01:06:59.780><c> to</c><01:07:00.079><c> the</c><01:07:00.280><c> Bible</c>

01:07:00.579 --> 01:07:03.480
and<01:07:01.480><c> see</c><01:07:01.820><c> what</c><01:07:02.099><c> really</c><01:07:02.440><c> does</c><01:07:02.659><c> lie</c><01:07:02.840><c> ahead</c><01:07:03.019><c> of</c><01:07:03.239><c> Jerusalem.</c>

01:07:03.559 --> 01:07:05.239
What<01:07:03.699><c> is</c><01:07:03.960><c> terribly</c><01:07:04.320><c> exciting</c><01:07:04.739><c> to</c><01:07:04.940><c> us</c>

01:07:05.239 --> 01:07:08.599
is<01:07:05.739><c> that</c><01:07:05.960><c> all</c><01:07:06.159><c> the</c><01:07:06.360><c> nations</c><01:07:06.619><c> are</c><01:07:07.019><c> becoming</c><01:07:07.400><c> involved.</c>

01:07:09.059 --> 01:07:10.960
You<01:07:09.139><c> know,</c><01:07:09.280><c> it</c><01:07:09.280><c> wasn't</c><01:07:09.420><c> just</c><01:07:10.019><c> many</c><01:07:10.420><c> days</c><01:07:10.719><c> ago</c>

01:07:10.960 --> 01:07:13.019
when<01:07:11.139><c> we</c><01:07:11.320><c> almost</c><01:07:11.599><c> thought</c><01:07:11.760><c> this</c><01:07:12.039><c> thing</c><01:07:12.139><c> might</c><01:07:12.460><c> boil</c><01:07:12.719><c> over,</c>

01:07:13.059 --> 01:07:14.659
people<01:07:13.280><c> getting</c><01:07:13.480><c> very</c><01:07:13.820><c> worried.</c>

01:07:14.840 --> 01:07:15.460
Very<01:07:15.199><c> worried.</c>

01:07:15.519 --> 01:07:17.199
Mr.<01:07:15.800><c> Clinton</c><01:07:15.860><c> got</c><01:07:16.039><c> on</c><01:07:16.099><c> his</c><01:07:16.320><c> plane</c><01:07:16.519><c> and</c><01:07:16.659><c> went</c><01:07:16.739><c> across</c><01:07:17.079><c> the</c>

Middle<01:07:17.380><c> East.</c>

01:07:19.519 --> 01:07:22.260
And<01:07:19.760><c> the</c><01:07:20.380><c> United</c><01:07:20.659><c> Nations</c><01:07:21.079><c> president</c><01:07:21.539><c> came</c><01:07:21.860><c> and</c><01:07:21.960><c> he</c><01:07:22.119><c> got</c><01:07:22.219><c> on</c>

01:07:22.260 --> 01:07:23.559

01:07:24.179 --> 01:07:26.039
And<01:07:24.280><c> Arafat</c><01:07:24.440><c> was</c><01:07:24.679><c> flying</c><01:07:24.940><c> around</c><01:07:25.219><c> all</c><01:07:25.400><c> sorts</c><01:07:25.619><c> of</c><01:07:25.820><c> places,</c>

the<01:07:26.239><c> Pope</c><01:07:26.440><c> and</c><01:07:26.599><c> everywhere</c><01:07:26.820><c> else,</c>

01:07:27.159 --> 01:07:29.739
because<01:07:27.480><c> it</c><01:07:27.719><c> looked</c><01:07:27.920><c> as</c><01:07:28.079><c> though</c><01:07:28.199><c> the</c><01:07:28.239><c> whole</c><01:07:28.460><c> thing</c><01:07:28.579><c> would</c><01:07:28.739><c> just</c><01:07:28.980><c> boil</c><01:07:29.139><c> right</c><01:07:29.440><c> up</c>

01:07:29.739 --> 01:07:31.500
and<01:07:30.119><c> Israel</c><01:07:30.340><c> had</c><01:07:30.539><c> enough.</c>

01:07:31.940 --> 01:07:34.300
The<01:07:32.059><c> Arabs</c><01:07:32.239><c> were</c><01:07:32.460><c> speaking</c><01:07:32.659><c> that</c><01:07:32.780><c> they</c><01:07:32.960><c> might</c><01:07:33.139><c> be</c><01:07:33.360><c> involved.</c>

01:07:34.360 --> 01:07:35.659
And<01:07:34.360><c> so</c><01:07:34.519><c> the</c><01:07:34.679><c> world</c><01:07:34.820><c> again</c><01:07:35.159><c> was</c><01:07:35.400><c> conscious.</c>

01:07:35.679 --> 01:07:37.059
What<01:07:35.880><c> was</c><01:07:36.119><c> the</c><01:07:36.380><c> crux?</c>

01:07:37.219 --> 01:07:40.340
Because<01:07:37.500><c> they</c><01:07:37.860><c> couldn't</c><01:07:38.179><c> get</c><01:07:38.460><c> agreement</c><01:07:39.039><c> about</c><01:07:39.360><c> Jerusalem.</c>

01:07:40.760 --> 01:07:42.699
If<01:07:40.860><c> he</c><01:07:41.019><c> had</c><01:07:41.039><c> come</c><01:07:41.260><c> home</c><01:07:41.360><c> from</c><01:07:41.519><c> Camp</c><01:07:41.780><c> David</c><01:07:42.079><c> and</c><01:07:42.219><c> they</c><01:07:42.300><c> had</c><01:07:42.420><c> assault,</c>

01:07:42.940 --> 01:07:44.000
everything<01:07:43.199><c> would</c><01:07:43.420><c> have</c><01:07:43.579><c> settled</c><01:07:43.780><c> down.</c>

01:07:44.119 --> 01:07:46.619
What<01:07:44.440><c> kept</c><01:07:44.719><c> it</c><01:07:44.860><c> on</c><01:07:44.980><c> the</c><01:07:45.139><c> boil?</c><01:07:45.679><c> Jerusalem.</c>

01:07:47.500 --> 01:07:48.900
What<01:07:47.679><c> a</c><01:07:47.900><c> fascinating</c><01:07:48.400><c> story.</c>

01:07:49.079 --> 01:07:53.420
But<01:07:49.199><c> isn't</c><01:07:49.300><c> it</c><01:07:49.500><c> wonderful</c><01:07:50.199><c> to</c><01:07:51.659><c> see</c><01:07:51.820><c> the</c><01:07:52.079><c> truth</c><01:07:52.239><c> of</c><01:07:52.420><c> the</c><01:07:52.559><c> story?</c>

01:08:07.340 --> 01:08:08.619
The<01:08:07.400><c> chapter</c><01:08:07.619><c> we</c><01:08:07.760><c> read</c><01:08:07.900><c> tonight,</c>

Zechariah<01:08:09.139><c> 14,</c><01:08:09.480><c> says</c><01:08:09.659><c> exactly</c><01:08:10.320><c> that.</c>

01:08:11.619 --> 01:08:13.420

01:08:20.260 --> 01:08:22.699
Behold,<01:08:20.800><c> the</c><01:08:20.819><c> day</c><01:08:21.079><c> of</c><01:08:21.220><c> the</c><01:08:21.340><c> Lord</c><01:08:21.579><c> cometh.</c>

01:08:23.020 --> 01:08:26.479
Thy<01:08:23.239><c> spoils</c><01:08:23.619><c> shall</c><01:08:23.840><c> be</c><01:08:24.039><c> divided</c><01:08:24.359><c> in</c><01:08:24.579><c> the</c><01:08:24.699><c> midst</c><01:08:24.880><c> of</c><01:08:25.119><c> thee.</c>

01:08:26.840 --> 01:08:31.500
For<01:08:27.000><c> I</c><01:08:27.119><c> will</c><01:08:27.319><c> gather</c><01:08:27.539><c> all</c><01:08:27.859><c> nations</c><01:08:28.539><c> against</c><01:08:29.819><c> Jerusalem</c><01:08:30.359><c> to</c><01:08:30.640><c> battle.</c>

01:08:32.140 --> 01:08:34.560
And<01:08:32.340><c> the</c><01:08:32.539><c> city</c><01:08:32.699><c> shall</c><01:08:32.920><c> be</c><01:08:33.140><c> taken,</c><01:08:33.520><c> and</c><01:08:33.619><c> the</c><01:08:33.779><c> houses</c><01:08:34.079><c> rifled,</c>

01:08:34.579 --> 01:08:36.380
and<01:08:34.720><c> the</c><01:08:34.880><c> women</c><01:08:35.100><c> ravished.</c>

01:08:36.460 --> 01:08:39.380
And<01:08:36.699><c> half</c><01:08:36.819><c> of</c><01:08:36.979><c> the</c><01:08:37.100><c> city</c><01:08:37.279><c> shall</c><01:08:37.479><c> go</c><01:08:37.760><c> forth</c><01:08:37.939><c> into</c><01:08:38.199><c> captivity.</c>

01:08:42.899 --> 01:08:45.500
Perhaps<01:08:43.279><c> the</c><01:08:43.500><c> city</c><01:08:43.659><c> will</c><01:08:43.939><c> remain</c><01:08:44.220><c> divided.</c>

01:08:46.880 --> 01:08:48.819

into<01:08:49.000><c> captivity.</c>

01:08:50.720 --> 01:08:52.880
Perhaps<01:08:50.899><c> that's</c><01:08:51.079><c> because</c><01:08:51.359><c> it</c><01:08:51.479><c> will</c><01:08:51.920><c> be</c><01:08:52.199><c> half</c><01:08:52.420><c> of</c><01:08:52.579><c> the</c><01:08:52.699><c> city</c>

01:08:52.880 --> 01:08:54.640
that<01:08:53.100><c> still</c><01:08:53.279><c> remains</c><01:08:53.760><c> as</c><01:08:54.020><c> being</c><01:08:54.260><c> Jewish.</c>

01:08:54.880 --> 01:08:56.439
But<01:08:55.039><c> what?</c>

01:08:56.600 --> 01:08:57.979
Who<01:08:57.039><c> knows?</c>

01:08:59.239 --> 01:09:02.000
Then<01:08:59.500><c> shall</c><01:08:59.720><c> the</c><01:08:59.859><c> Lord</c><01:08:59.979><c> go</c><01:09:00.239><c> forth</c><01:09:00.500><c> and</c><01:09:00.680><c> fight</c><01:09:00.920><c> against</c><01:09:01.220><c> those</c><01:09:01.500><c> nations,</c>

01:09:02.319 --> 01:09:03.720
