00:09:37.059 --> 00:09:39.779
which<00:09:37.059><c> they</c><00:09:37.299><c> were</c><00:09:37.679><c> expecting,</c><00:09:38.419><c> which</c><00:09:38.559><c> they</c><00:09:38.700><c> were</c><00:09:39.019><c> waiting</c><00:09:39.440><c> for,</c>

00:09:40.000 --> 00:09:43.620
which<00:09:40.159><c> heralded</c><00:09:40.679><c> to</c><00:09:40.879><c> them</c><00:09:41.519><c> on</c><00:09:42.379><c> the</c><00:09:42.559><c> knowledge</c><00:09:42.799><c> that</c><00:09:43.000><c> they</c><00:09:43.179><c> had</c>

00:09:43.620 --> 00:09:48.620
that<00:09:44.720><c> the</c><00:09:45.159><c> King</c><00:09:45.500><c> of</c><00:09:45.659><c> the</c><00:09:45.840><c> Jews</c><00:09:46.279><c> would</c><00:09:46.720><c> be</c><00:09:48.000><c> born.</c>

00:09:48.960 --> 00:09:51.899
Now<00:09:49.179><c> there's</c><00:09:49.259><c> something</c><00:09:49.519><c> about</c><00:09:49.779><c> the</c><00:09:49.919><c> appearance</c><00:09:50.179><c> of</c><00:09:50.379><c> the</c><00:09:50.500><c> star</c><00:09:50.600><c> that</c><00:09:50.720><c> they</c><00:09:51.039><c> say</c>

00:09:51.899 --> 00:09:53.840
in<00:09:52.460><c> verse</c><00:09:53.019><c> 2</c><00:09:53.460><c> there</c>

00:09:53.840 --> 00:10:00.940
that's<00:09:54.379><c> different</c><00:09:54.779><c> to</c><00:09:55.019><c> the</c><00:09:55.259><c> next</c><00:09:55.799><c> time</c><00:09:56.480><c> the</c><00:09:56.779><c> star</c><00:09:57.820><c> presents</c><00:09:59.779><c> itself.</c>

00:10:01.139 --> 00:10:03.360
There's<00:10:01.559><c> a</c><00:10:01.559><c> difference</c><00:10:01.559><c> in</c><00:10:01.980><c> the</c><00:10:02.220><c> two</c><00:10:02.419><c> mentions</c><00:10:02.759><c> of</c><00:10:02.940><c> the</c><00:10:03.120><c> star</c>

00:10:03.360 --> 00:10:06.980
from<00:10:04.080><c> verse</c><00:10:04.500><c> 2</c><00:10:04.820><c> to</c><00:10:05.159><c> verse</c><00:10:05.879><c> 9.</c>

00:10:07.940 --> 00:10:12.320
What's<00:10:08.240><c> the</c><00:10:08.399><c> difference?</c><00:10:10.200><c> It's</c><00:10:10.460><c> really</c><00:10:10.759><c> important</c><00:10:11.240><c> too.</c>

00:10:16.480 --> 00:10:20.320
Well<00:10:17.080><c> it</c><00:10:17.279><c> arose</c><00:10:17.600><c> in</c><00:10:17.799><c> the</c><00:10:17.940><c> east,</c><00:10:18.500><c> which</c><00:10:18.659><c> meant</c><00:10:19.059><c> when</c><00:10:20.039><c> they</c><00:10:20.259><c> were</c>

00:10:20.320 --> 00:10:22.820
over<00:10:20.620><c> in</c><00:10:20.720><c> the</c><00:10:20.840><c> east</c><00:10:21.059><c> in</c><00:10:21.240><c> the</c><00:10:21.379><c> area</c><00:10:21.639><c> of</c><00:10:21.879><c> Babylon,</c>

00:10:24.139 --> 00:10:26.500
the<00:10:24.299><c> star</c><00:10:24.659><c> appeared,</c><00:10:25.159><c> something</c><00:10:25.539><c> appeared</c><00:10:25.919><c> up</c><00:10:26.179><c> there,</c><00:10:26.340><c> but</c>

00:10:26.500 --> 00:10:31.639
there's<00:10:26.659><c> something</c><00:10:26.960><c> different</c><00:10:27.639><c> about</c><00:10:28.139><c> it</c><00:10:28.360><c> in...</c>

00:10:31.639 --> 00:10:35.580
It<00:10:32.200><c> went</c><00:10:32.460><c> before</c><00:10:33.000><c> them.</c><00:10:33.700><c> It</c><00:10:34.000><c> led</c><00:10:34.299><c> them.</c>

00:10:36.159 --> 00:10:37.740
Stars<00:10:36.519><c> don't</c><00:10:36.940><c> lead</c><00:10:37.240><c> you.</c>

00:10:37.740 --> 00:10:41.580
And<00:10:38.879><c> Brother</c><00:10:39.159><c> Neville</c><00:10:39.500><c> suggested</c><00:10:39.919><c> it</c><00:10:39.919><c> could</c><00:10:40.139><c> be</c><00:10:40.379><c> the</c><00:10:40.500><c> Shekinah</c><00:10:40.879><c> Glory.</c>

00:10:42.019 --> 00:10:44.039
Yes,<00:10:42.720><c> all</c><00:10:42.980><c> angels</c><00:10:43.200><c> have</c><00:10:43.379><c> the</c><00:10:43.559><c> Shekinah</c><00:10:43.840><c> Glory.</c>

00:10:44.139 --> 00:10:47.480
I<00:10:44.320><c> think</c><00:10:44.500><c> it's</c><00:10:44.740><c> probably</c><00:10:45.080><c> an</c><00:10:45.320><c> angel,</c><00:10:46.360><c> perhaps</c><00:10:46.799><c> Gabriel,</c><00:10:47.259><c> that</c>

00:10:47.480 --> 00:10:48.700
led<00:10:47.620><c> them.</c>

00:10:49.000 --> 00:10:54.179
But<00:10:49.000><c> what's</c><00:10:51.080><c> important</c><00:10:51.460><c> is</c><00:10:51.759><c> that</c><00:10:52.440><c> their</c><00:10:52.639><c> mission</c><00:10:52.980><c> is</c><00:10:53.360><c> accomplished</c><00:10:53.779><c> because</c>

00:10:54.179 --> 00:10:55.879
of<00:10:54.419><c> divine</c><00:10:54.779><c> guidance.</c>

00:10:55.919 --> 00:10:59.639
Like<00:10:56.179><c> GPS,</c><00:10:57.139><c> straight</c><00:10:57.539><c> to</c><00:10:57.740><c> the</c><00:10:57.960><c> house,</c><00:10:58.779><c> you</c><00:10:58.919><c> have</c><00:10:59.139><c> arrived</c><00:10:59.500><c> at</c>

00:10:59.639 --> 00:11:00.960
your<00:10:59.860><c> destination.</c>

00:11:01.639 --> 00:11:06.480
And<00:11:02.139><c> they</c><00:11:02.559><c> were</c><00:11:02.840><c> so</c><00:11:03.179><c> glad</c><00:11:03.379><c> and</c><00:11:03.639><c> happy</c><00:11:04.059><c> that</c><00:11:04.960><c> the</c><00:11:05.320><c> star,</c><00:11:06.320><c> which</c>

00:11:06.480 --> 00:11:11.679
they<00:11:06.820><c> originally</c><00:11:07.139><c> saw</c><00:11:07.799><c> arrive</c><00:11:08.840><c> or</c><00:11:09.940><c> appear</c><00:11:10.320><c> in</c><00:11:10.480><c> the</c><00:11:10.600><c> east,</c>

00:11:12.899 --> 00:11:16.159
which<00:11:13.080><c> left,</c><00:11:14.940><c> they</c><00:11:15.100><c> knew</c><00:11:15.299><c> they</c><00:11:15.440><c> had</c><00:11:15.539><c> to</c><00:11:15.639><c> go</c><00:11:15.740><c> to</c><00:11:15.879><c> Jerusalem.</c>

00:11:16.200 --> 00:11:19.200
Where<00:11:16.399><c> else</c><00:11:16.539><c> would</c><00:11:16.700><c> you</c><00:11:16.840><c> go</c><00:11:17.159><c> to</c><00:11:17.639><c> meet</c><00:11:17.820><c> the</c><00:11:17.960><c> King</c><00:11:18.139><c> of</c><00:11:18.220><c> the</c><00:11:18.360><c> Jews?</c>

00:11:19.659 --> 00:11:22.480
They<00:11:19.820><c> didn't</c><00:11:20.039><c> know</c><00:11:20.240><c> the</c><00:11:20.500><c> prophecies</c><00:11:21.000><c> of</c><00:11:21.240><c> Micah,</c><00:11:21.639><c> which</c><00:11:22.000><c> we're</c>

00:11:22.480 --> 00:11:24.000
going<00:11:22.620><c> to</c><00:11:22.779><c> have</c><00:11:22.919><c> revealed</c><00:11:23.259><c> to</c><00:11:23.500><c> us.</c>

00:11:24.120 --> 00:11:26.240
We'll<00:11:24.539><c> pretend</c><00:11:24.759><c> we</c><00:11:24.940><c> didn't</c><00:11:25.179><c> know.</c>

00:11:26.460 --> 00:11:30.600
But<00:11:26.980><c> it</c><00:11:27.240><c> arose</c><00:11:27.600><c> again</c><00:11:28.139><c> and</c><00:11:28.679><c> appeared</c><00:11:28.960><c> again</c><00:11:29.700><c> and</c><00:11:30.100><c> led</c><00:11:30.360><c> them.</c>

00:11:30.799 --> 00:11:32.080
It<00:11:30.799><c> went</c><00:11:31.080><c> before</c><00:11:31.600><c> them.</c>

00:11:32.480 --> 00:11:36.559
The<00:11:32.659><c> same</c><00:11:32.879><c> idea</c><00:11:33.340><c> as</c><00:11:33.600><c> when</c><00:11:33.840><c> Israel</c><00:11:34.299><c> came</c><00:11:34.519><c> out</c><00:11:34.820><c> of</c><00:11:35.500><c> Egypt,</c><00:11:36.320><c> the</c>

00:11:36.559 --> 00:11:37.879
cloud<00:11:36.899><c> and</c><00:11:37.259><c> the</c><00:11:37.480><c> pillar</c><00:11:37.659><c> of</c><00:11:37.779><c> fire.</c>

00:11:38.000 --> 00:11:41.120
It<00:11:38.000><c> went</c><00:11:38.200><c> before</c><00:11:38.720><c> them</c><00:11:39.299><c> and</c><00:11:39.620><c> they</c><00:11:39.899><c> followed</c><00:11:40.139><c> it.</c>

00:11:41.399 --> 00:11:43.340
How<00:11:41.659><c> exciting</c><00:11:42.120><c> would</c><00:11:42.259><c> that</c><00:11:42.419><c> have</c><00:11:42.639><c> been?</c>

00:11:43.720 --> 00:11:45.539
So<00:11:43.879><c> these</c><00:11:44.139><c> men</c><00:11:44.340><c> are</c><00:11:44.419><c> from</c><00:11:44.659><c> the</c><00:11:44.799><c> east.</c>

00:11:46.919 --> 00:11:49.600
Now,<00:11:47.440><c> so</c><00:11:47.960><c> there's</c><00:11:48.659><c> plenty</c><00:11:48.940><c> of</c><00:11:49.059><c> things</c><00:11:49.179><c> in</c><00:11:49.340><c> the</c><00:11:49.440><c> east.</c>

00:11:49.679 --> 00:11:52.059
There's<00:11:49.820><c> a</c><00:11:49.919><c> whole</c><00:11:50.080><c> Jewish</c><00:11:50.320><c> community</c><00:11:50.759><c> in</c><00:11:50.940><c> the</c><00:11:51.100><c> east.</c>

00:11:53.240 --> 00:11:57.419
Abraham<00:11:53.759><c> had</c><00:11:54.100><c> sent</c><00:11:54.539><c> his</c><00:11:55.840><c> concubine</c><00:11:56.539><c> to</c><00:11:56.799><c> the</c><00:11:56.980><c> east.</c>

00:11:57.840 --> 00:11:59.120
There's<00:11:57.919><c> a</c><00:11:58.100><c> strong</c><00:11:58.360><c> community</c><00:11:58.700><c> over</c><00:11:58.940><c> there.</c>

00:11:59.480 --> 00:12:03.320
But<00:11:59.480><c> you'll</c><00:11:59.860><c> notice</c><00:12:00.059><c> when</c><00:12:00.320><c> they</c><00:12:00.600><c> come,</c><00:12:01.139><c> they</c><00:12:01.360><c> say,</c><00:12:02.720><c> the</c><00:12:03.120><c> King</c>

00:12:03.320 --> 00:12:03.779
of<00:12:03.440><c> the</c><00:12:03.620><c> Jews.</c>

00:12:03.860 --> 00:12:06.200
And<00:12:03.940><c> that's</c><00:12:04.159><c> a</c><00:12:04.240><c> Gentile</c><00:12:05.399><c> title.</c>

00:12:06.399 --> 00:12:09.960
No<00:12:06.679><c> Jew</c><00:12:06.980><c> ever</c><00:12:07.279><c> says</c><00:12:07.840><c> the</c><00:12:08.379><c> King</c><00:12:08.580><c> of</c><00:12:08.679><c> the</c><00:12:08.820><c> Jews,</c><00:12:09.019><c> referring</c><00:12:09.440><c> to</c><00:12:09.659><c> Messiah.</c>

00:12:10.059 --> 00:12:11.419
It's<00:12:10.139><c> always</c><00:12:10.340><c> our</c><00:12:10.580><c> King.</c>

00:12:11.720 --> 00:12:15.659
And<00:12:11.860><c> so</c><00:12:12.899><c> they're</c><00:12:13.500><c> wise</c><00:12:13.720><c> over</c><00:12:14.759><c> in</c><00:12:14.919><c> the</c><00:12:15.039><c> east.</c>

00:12:15.860 --> 00:12:20.600
Solomon's<00:12:16.379><c> wisdom</c><00:12:16.740><c> in</c><00:12:17.519><c> 1</c><00:12:17.779><c> Kings</c><00:12:18.019><c> 4</c><00:12:18.320><c> verse</c><00:12:18.500><c> 30</c><00:12:18.759><c> is</c><00:12:19.120><c> compared</c><00:12:19.460><c> to</c>

00:12:20.600 --> 00:12:22.899
the<00:12:20.940><c> wisdom</c><00:12:21.700><c> of</c><00:12:21.860><c> those</c><00:12:22.179><c> from</c><00:12:22.460><c> the</c><00:12:22.659><c> east.</c>

00:12:23.120 --> 00:12:24.019

And<00:17:31.980><c> your</c><00:17:32.160><c> life</c><00:17:32.319><c> was</c><00:17:32.500><c> in</c><00:17:32.619><c> the</c><00:17:32.740><c> hand</c><00:17:32.900><c> of</c><00:17:33.099><c> these</c><00:17:33.380><c> fools.</c>

00:17:33.759 --> 00:17:37.920
Well,<00:17:35.180><c> this</c><00:17:35.500><c> is</c><00:17:36.500><c> those</c><00:17:37.180><c> type</c><00:17:37.400><c> of</c><00:17:37.619><c> people.</c>

military<00:17:42.500><c> matters.</c>

00:17:43.339 --> 00:17:48.079
Now,<00:17:44.579><c> all</c><00:17:44.960><c> of</c><00:17:45.119><c> them,</c><00:17:45.700><c> these</c><00:17:45.880><c> Eastern</c><00:17:46.819><c> wise</c><00:17:47.380><c> men,</c><00:17:47.740><c> are</c><00:17:47.779><c> crowded</c>

00:17:48.079 --> 00:17:49.440
into<00:17:48.319><c> the</c><00:17:48.380><c> Book</c><00:17:48.539><c> of</c><00:17:48.740><c> Daniel.</c>

00:17:49.579 --> 00:17:50.480
So<00:17:49.779><c> how</c><00:17:49.900><c> do</c><00:17:50.019><c> they</c><00:17:50.220><c> know?</c>

00:17:50.660 --> 00:17:52.940
Well,<00:17:50.880><c> the</c><00:17:51.000><c> answer's</c><00:17:51.319><c> got</c><00:17:51.380><c> to</c><00:17:51.460><c> be</c><00:17:51.579><c> Daniel,</c><00:17:51.880><c> doesn't</c><00:17:52.119><c> it?</c>

00:17:53.920 --> 00:17:56.500
And<00:17:54.359><c> his</c><00:17:54.799><c> legacy</c><00:17:55.160><c> is</c><00:17:55.440><c> 500</c><00:17:55.900><c> years</c><00:17:56.299><c> old.</c>

00:17:56.500 --> 00:17:59.900
So<00:17:56.619><c> let's</c><00:17:56.759><c> just</c><00:17:57.000><c> think</c><00:17:57.180><c> about</c><00:17:57.660><c> how</c><00:17:58.119><c> Daniel</c><00:17:58.500><c> could</c><00:17:58.720><c> have</c><00:17:58.900><c> influenced</c><00:17:59.259><c> these</c><00:17:59.539><c> people.</c>

00:17:59.980 --> 00:18:02.880
And<00:18:00.119><c> we'll</c><00:18:00.220><c> just,</c><00:18:00.700><c> we'll</c><00:18:00.980><c> take</c><00:18:01.140><c> a</c><00:18:01.259><c> little</c><00:18:01.400><c> bit</c><00:18:01.539><c> of</c><00:18:01.660><c> poetic</c><00:18:01.819><c> license,</c><00:18:02.299><c> obviously,</c><00:18:02.660><c> and</c>

00:18:02.880 --> 00:18:04.079
we'll<00:18:03.000><c> just</c><00:18:03.240><c> think</c><00:18:03.440><c> about</c><00:18:03.759><c> it.</c>

00:18:04.400 --> 00:18:08.059
So<00:18:04.839><c> we</c><00:18:05.140><c> go</c><00:18:05.259><c> back</c><00:18:05.460><c> to</c><00:18:05.599><c> Daniel,</c><00:18:05.900><c> Chapter</c><00:18:06.180><c> 2,</c><00:18:06.859><c> and</c><00:18:07.259><c> remember</c><00:18:07.680><c> where</c><00:18:07.819><c> we</c>

00:18:08.059 --> 00:18:10.420
started<00:18:08.279><c> at</c><00:18:08.559><c> the</c><00:18:08.660><c> beginning</c><00:18:08.880><c> of</c><00:18:09.059><c> the</c><00:18:09.119><c> week</c><00:18:09.240><c> with</c><00:18:09.400><c> Nebuchadnezzar</c><00:18:10.039><c> worrying</c>

00:18:10.420 --> 00:18:11.859
about<00:18:10.660><c> the</c><00:18:10.920><c> future.</c>

00:18:14.299 --> 00:18:20.880
As<00:18:14.819><c> he</c><00:18:15.339><c> always</c><00:18:15.740><c> worried</c><00:18:16.039><c> about</c><00:18:16.319><c> the</c><00:18:16.519><c> future,</c><00:18:19.519><c> as</c><00:18:19.660><c> a</c><00:18:19.839><c> good</c><00:18:20.019><c> king.</c>

00:18:21.279 --> 00:18:28.579
And<00:18:21.420><c> Daniel</c><00:18:21.640><c> comes</c><00:18:21.940><c> to</c><00:18:22.079><c> him</c><00:18:22.240><c> and</c><00:18:22.380><c> says,</c><00:18:22.799><c> well,</c><00:18:22.900><c> Nebuchadnezzar,</c><00:18:27.980><c> here's</c><00:18:28.319><c> what's</c>

00:18:28.579 --> 00:18:30.619
going<00:18:28.680><c> to</c><00:18:28.880><c> happen</c><00:18:29.099><c> in</c><00:18:29.640><c> the</c><00:18:29.799><c> future.</c>

00:18:31.039 --> 00:18:34.460
Your<00:18:31.240><c> kingdom</c><00:18:31.539><c> will</c><00:18:31.799><c> give</c><00:18:31.960><c> way</c><00:18:32.380><c> and</c><00:18:32.720><c> it</c><00:18:32.839><c> will</c><00:18:33.059><c> not</c><00:18:33.220><c> last</c><00:18:33.539><c> forever.</c>

00:18:34.640 --> 00:18:40.240
And<00:18:35.259><c> because</c><00:18:35.660><c> of</c><00:18:36.220><c> the</c><00:18:36.539><c> answer</c><00:18:37.000><c> that</c><00:18:37.799><c> day</c><00:18:38.099><c> when</c><00:18:38.619><c> Nebuchadnezzar</c><00:18:39.140><c> had</c><00:18:39.299><c> his</c><00:18:39.539><c> mind</c>

00:18:43.700 --> 00:18:47.099
And<00:18:43.839><c> he</c><00:18:44.119><c> saw</c><00:18:44.319><c> that</c><00:18:44.500><c> the</c><00:18:44.640><c> dream</c><00:18:44.759><c> was</c><00:18:45.099><c> certain</c><00:18:45.380><c> and</c><00:18:45.539><c> it</c><00:18:45.720><c> came</c><00:18:45.960><c> true.</c>

00:18:48.240 --> 00:18:51.380
You'll<00:18:48.579><c> see</c><00:18:48.720><c> that</c><00:18:48.900><c> Nebuchadnezzar</c><00:18:49.440><c> paid</c><00:18:49.740><c> Daniel</c><00:18:50.279><c> homage.</c>

00:18:52.279 --> 00:18:57.019
And<00:18:52.519><c> in</c><00:18:52.819><c> verse</c><00:18:54.180><c> 48,</c><00:18:55.059><c> the</c><00:18:55.099><c> king</c><00:18:55.380><c> gave</c><00:18:55.619><c> Daniel</c><00:18:55.980><c> high</c><00:18:56.259><c> honors</c><00:18:56.539><c> and</c>

00:18:58.299 --> 00:19:01.539
And<00:18:58.660><c> he</c><00:18:58.740><c> made</c><00:18:58.960><c> him</c><00:18:59.279><c> ruler</c><00:18:59.519><c> over</c><00:18:59.859><c> the</c><00:18:59.960><c> whole</c><00:19:00.240><c> province</c><00:19:00.539><c> of</c><00:19:00.779><c> Babylon</c><00:19:01.059><c> and</c>

00:19:01.539 --> 00:19:08.339
the<00:19:01.799><c> chief</c><00:19:02.180><c> prefect</c><00:19:02.779><c> over</c><00:19:03.200><c> all</c><00:19:03.619><c> the</c><00:19:03.900><c> wise</c><00:19:04.440><c> men,</c><00:19:06.259><c> the</c><00:19:06.660><c> rab</c><00:19:07.000><c> prefect</c><00:19:08.079><c> over</c>

00:19:11.859 --> 00:19:14.240
Now<00:19:12.140><c> think</c><00:19:12.440><c> about</c><00:19:12.680><c> how</c><00:19:12.859><c> things</c><00:19:13.079><c> would</c><00:19:13.259><c> have</c><00:19:13.380><c> changed</c><00:19:13.819><c> in</c><00:19:14.000><c> the</c>

00:19:19.539 --> 00:19:25.099
So<00:19:19.819><c> Daniel</c><00:19:20.079><c> comes</c><00:19:20.740><c> in</c><00:19:22.240><c> to</c><00:19:23.619><c> the</c><00:19:23.759><c> offices</c><00:19:24.039><c> of</c><00:19:24.279><c> all</c><00:19:24.420><c> the</c><00:19:24.619><c> wise</c><00:19:24.819><c> men.</c>

00:19:25.099 --> 00:19:28.740
And<00:19:25.240><c> they</c><00:19:25.420><c> probably,</c><00:19:25.920><c> you</c><00:19:25.980><c> know,</c><00:19:26.640><c> there's</c><00:19:27.140><c> a</c><00:19:27.359><c> central</c><00:19:28.019><c> big</c>

going,<00:19:53.619><c> hmm,</c><00:19:53.940><c> very</c><00:19:54.279><c> interesting</c><00:19:54.680><c> today.</c>

00:19:56.720 --> 00:20:01.019
Then<00:19:56.960><c> over</c><00:19:57.220><c> the</c><00:19:57.440><c> other</c><00:19:57.700><c> side</c><00:19:57.920><c> you</c><00:19:58.299><c> might</c><00:19:58.559><c> have</c><00:19:59.240><c> some,</c><00:19:59.740><c> you</c><00:19:59.880><c> know,</c><00:20:00.259><c> birds</c><00:20:00.420><c> hanging</c><00:20:00.720><c> up</c>

00:20:01.019 --> 00:20:05.720
by<00:20:01.619><c> their</c><00:20:03.039><c> little</c><00:20:03.440><c> feet</c><00:20:03.660><c> with</c><00:20:03.839><c> their</c><00:20:04.039><c> necks</c><00:20:04.359><c> twisted</c><00:20:04.700><c> off.</c>

00:20:05.900 --> 00:20:08.839
And<00:20:06.079><c> people</c><00:20:06.299><c> looking</c><00:20:06.539><c> out</c><00:20:06.720><c> the</c><00:20:06.859><c> windows</c><00:20:07.240><c> at</c><00:20:07.759><c> the</c><00:20:08.039><c> flight</c><00:20:08.220><c> of</c><00:20:08.480><c> birds.</c>

00:20:09.119 --> 00:20:10.779
And<00:20:09.279><c> there's</c><00:20:09.440><c> a</c><00:20:09.480><c> whole</c><00:20:09.660><c> bunch</c><00:20:09.859><c> of</c><00:20:10.140><c> arrows</c><00:20:10.339><c> over</c><00:20:10.579><c> here</c><00:20:10.680><c> which</c>

00:20:10.779 --> 00:20:12.420
they<00:20:11.059><c> drop</c><00:20:11.279><c> and</c><00:20:11.460><c> see</c><00:20:11.599><c> which</c><00:20:11.759><c> way</c><00:20:11.839><c> they</c><00:20:12.180><c> fall.</c>

00:20:12.420 --> 00:20:14.579
So<00:20:12.480><c> this</c><00:20:13.099><c> is</c><00:20:13.740><c> the</c><00:20:13.960><c> wise</c><00:20:14.140><c> men</c><00:20:14.299><c> of</c><00:20:14.460><c> Babylon.</c>

00:20:14.619 --> 00:20:15.759
This<00:20:14.740><c> is</c><00:20:14.880><c> how</c><00:20:14.880><c> the</c><00:20:15.079><c> world</c><00:20:15.240><c> works.</c>

00:20:16.200 --> 00:20:17.039
And<00:20:16.339><c> it's</c><00:20:16.480><c> no</c><00:20:16.599><c> different</c><00:20:16.779><c> today.</c>

00:20:17.059 --> 00:20:18.900
It<00:20:17.299><c> just</c><00:20:17.339><c> seems</c><00:20:17.599><c> to</c><00:20:17.759><c> be</c><00:20:17.920><c> a</c><00:20:17.940><c> little</c><00:20:18.119><c> bit</c><00:20:18.200><c> more</c><00:20:18.460><c> sophisticated.</c>

00:20:19.079 --> 00:20:20.599
But<00:20:19.440><c> it's</c><00:20:19.940><c> not.</c>

00:20:21.119 --> 00:20:25.740
Just<00:20:21.380><c> watch</c><00:20:21.559><c> CNN</c><00:20:21.920><c> for</c><00:20:22.180><c> half</c><00:20:22.380><c> an</c><00:20:22.559><c> hour</c><00:20:22.700><c> and</c><00:20:23.240><c> you</c><00:20:24.440><c> get</c><00:20:24.599><c> what</c><00:20:24.759><c> I</c><00:20:24.960><c> mean.</c>

00:20:28.859 --> 00:20:30.619
And<00:20:29.140><c> Daniel</c><00:20:29.279><c> would</c><00:20:29.440><c> have</c><00:20:29.500><c> said,</c><00:20:29.640><c> let's</c><00:20:29.759><c> get</c><00:20:29.920><c> rid</c><00:20:30.039><c> of</c><00:20:30.140><c> all</c><00:20:30.339><c> this.</c>

00:20:30.920 --> 00:20:31.660
What<00:20:31.039><c> are</c><00:20:31.200><c> you</c><00:20:31.299><c> talking</c><00:20:31.480><c> about?</c>

00:20:31.680 --> 00:20:33.119
Get<00:20:31.900><c> rid</c><00:20:32.140><c> of</c><00:20:32.319><c> the</c><00:20:32.619><c> whole</c><00:20:32.920><c> lot.</c>

00:20:33.259 --> 00:20:34.259
And<00:20:33.440><c> he</c><00:20:33.519><c> would</c><00:20:33.700><c> have</c><00:20:33.880><c> taught</c><00:20:34.059><c> them.</c>

00:20:34.259 --> 00:20:36.799
He<00:20:34.359><c> would</c><00:20:34.519><c> have</c><00:20:34.660><c> taught</c><00:20:34.799><c> them</c><00:20:35.599><c> these</c><00:20:35.859><c> things</c><00:20:36.099><c> like</c><00:20:36.420><c> this.</c>

00:20:36.799 --> 00:20:41.460
He<00:20:37.720><c> would</c><00:20:37.940><c> have</c><00:20:38.000><c> said,</c><00:20:38.359><c> listen,</c><00:20:39.640><c> I'm</c><00:20:39.900><c> in</c><00:20:40.259><c> charge</c><00:20:40.559><c> now</c><00:20:40.880><c> and</c><00:20:41.019><c> you're</c><00:20:41.339><c> going</c><00:20:41.339><c> to</c>

00:20:41.460 --> 00:20:42.980
learn<00:20:41.599><c> a</c><00:20:41.799><c> few</c><00:20:41.920><c> things.</c>

00:20:43.460 --> 00:20:48.220
Because<00:20:43.740><c> wisdom</c><00:20:44.279><c> belongs</c><00:20:45.000><c> to</c><00:20:46.660><c> the</c><00:20:46.880><c> God</c><00:20:47.019><c> of</c><00:20:47.180><c> the</c><00:20:47.359><c> Jews.</c>

00:20:48.700 --> 00:20:51.980
In<00:20:48.839><c> verse</c><00:20:49.059><c> 21</c><00:20:49.380><c> of</c><00:20:49.539><c> chapter</c><00:20:49.700><c> 2,</c><00:20:50.039><c> he</c><00:20:50.039><c> changes</c><00:20:50.519><c> times</c><00:20:50.880><c> and</c><00:20:51.119><c> seasons.</c>

00:20:53.059 --> 00:20:55.160
And<00:20:53.279><c> he</c><00:20:53.440><c> removes</c><00:20:53.759><c> kings</c><00:20:54.059><c> and</c><00:20:54.220><c> sets</c><00:20:54.460><c> up</c><00:20:54.759><c> kings.</c>

00:20:55.619 --> 00:20:58.960
And<00:20:55.740><c> he</c><00:20:55.920><c> gives</c><00:20:56.200><c> wisdom</c><00:20:56.720><c> to</c><00:20:57.000><c> the</c><00:20:57.200><c> wise</c><00:20:57.599><c> and</c><00:20:58.200><c> knowledge</c><00:20:58.500><c> to</c><00:20:58.619><c> those</c><00:20:58.839><c> who</c>

00:20:58.960 --> 00:20:59.559
have<00:20:59.160><c> understanding.</c>

00:21:00.019 --> 00:21:02.859
It's<00:21:00.380><c> he</c><00:21:00.819><c> who</c><00:21:01.099><c> reveals</c><00:21:01.480><c> the</c><00:21:01.759><c> deep</c><00:21:01.940><c> and</c><00:21:02.299><c> hidden</c><00:21:02.539><c> things.</c>

00:21:03.099 --> 00:21:05.460
He<00:21:03.220><c> knows</c><00:21:03.500><c> what</c><00:21:03.680><c> is</c><00:21:03.779><c> in</c><00:21:03.900><c> the</c><00:21:04.059><c> darkness</c><00:21:04.359><c> and</c><00:21:04.519><c> the</c><00:21:04.660><c> light</c><00:21:05.059><c> dwells</c>

00:21:05.460 --> 00:21:05.920
with<00:21:05.660><c> him.</c>

00:21:05.920 --> 00:21:09.079
You<00:21:06.359><c> want</c><00:21:06.579><c> to</c><00:21:06.740><c> find</c><00:21:06.920><c> out</c><00:21:07.319><c> the</c><00:21:07.579><c> riddle</c><00:21:07.839><c> of</c><00:21:07.980><c> the</c><00:21:08.160><c> future.</c>

00:21:09.400 --> 00:21:10.900
It's<00:21:09.660><c> through</c><00:21:09.960><c> God.</c>

00:21:11.940 --> 00:21:15.000
And<00:21:12.180><c> I'm</c><00:21:12.339><c> going</c><00:21:12.460><c> to</c><00:21:12.640><c> explain</c><00:21:12.980><c> to</c><00:21:13.119><c> you</c><00:21:13.240><c> about</c><00:21:13.579><c> the</c><00:21:13.900><c> vision</c><00:21:14.200><c> that</c>

00:21:15.000 --> 00:21:15.779
your<00:21:15.240><c> king</c><00:21:15.440><c> had.</c>

00:21:16.279 --> 00:21:19.539
And<00:21:16.440><c> he</c><00:21:16.579><c> would</c><00:21:16.779><c> have</c><00:21:16.880><c> told</c><00:21:17.119><c> them</c><00:21:17.299><c> about</c><00:21:17.579><c> the</c><00:21:18.539><c> stone.</c>

00:21:20.779 --> 00:21:22.700
And<00:21:21.259><c> he</c><00:21:21.740><c> preached</c><00:21:21.980><c> to</c><00:21:22.220><c> them</c><00:21:22.220><c> the</c><00:21:22.359><c> gospel.</c>

00:21:22.880 --> 00:21:26.500
He<00:21:23.000><c> told</c><00:21:23.119><c> them</c><00:21:23.240><c> about</c><00:21:23.440><c> Messiah,</c><00:21:24.619><c> the</c><00:21:24.759><c> good</c><00:21:24.980><c> news</c><00:21:25.180><c> about</c><00:21:25.440><c> salvation</c><00:21:26.000><c> through</c><00:21:26.259><c> the</c>

00:21:26.500 --> 00:21:28.859
Jews<00:21:26.720><c> and</c><00:21:26.900><c> the</c><00:21:27.119><c> promises</c><00:21:27.339><c> made</c><00:21:27.619><c> to</c><00:21:27.920><c> Abraham.</c>

00:21:29.039 --> 00:21:31.880
And<00:21:29.299><c> how</c><00:21:29.500><c> that</c><00:21:29.680><c> the</c><00:21:29.880><c> kingdom</c><00:21:30.059><c> would</c><00:21:30.279><c> take</c><00:21:30.440><c> up</c><00:21:30.599><c> the</c><00:21:30.700><c> entire</c><00:21:31.039><c> earth.</c>

00:21:31.940 --> 00:21:33.319
And<00:21:32.119><c> Daniel</c><00:21:32.279><c> started</c><00:21:32.599><c> to</c><00:21:32.819><c> teach</c><00:21:32.980><c> these</c><00:21:33.200><c> men.</c>

00:21:33.319 --> 00:21:35.559
Can<00:21:33.319><c> you</c><00:21:33.579><c> imagine</c><00:21:33.819><c> how</c><00:21:34.160><c> resistant</c><00:21:34.660><c> he'd</c><00:21:34.880><c> be</c><00:21:35.000><c> to</c><00:21:35.160><c> this?</c>

00:21:36.059 --> 00:21:38.079
I<00:21:36.319><c> like</c><00:21:36.539><c> my</c><00:21:36.759><c> livers.</c>

00:21:42.279 --> 00:21:43.380
And<00:21:42.500><c> time</c><00:21:42.900><c> went</c><00:21:43.079><c> on.</c>

00:21:43.420 --> 00:21:46.720
And<00:21:43.559><c> I</c><00:21:43.619><c> know</c><00:21:43.819><c> it</c><00:21:44.019><c> would</c><00:21:44.380><c> take,</c><00:21:44.660><c> you</c><00:21:44.819><c> know,</c><00:21:44.960><c> I</c><00:21:45.019><c> know</c><00:21:45.200><c> it</c><00:21:45.819><c> goes</c>

00:21:46.720 --> 00:21:49.660
much<00:21:48.740><c> longer</c><00:21:48.980><c> into</c><00:21:49.140><c> the</c><00:21:49.279><c> future.</c>

00:21:50.000 --> 00:21:53.279
But<00:21:50.140><c> he</c><00:21:50.440><c> evidently</c><00:21:50.920><c> had</c><00:21:51.500><c> some</c><00:21:52.160><c> huge</c><00:21:52.680><c> effect</c><00:21:53.019><c> on</c><00:21:53.180><c> them.</c>

00:21:53.279 --> 00:21:58.400
Because<00:21:53.680><c> I</c><00:21:54.559><c> think</c><00:21:54.740><c> it's</c><00:21:54.980><c> around</c><00:21:55.400><c> 18,</c><00:21:55.960><c> 23</c><00:21:56.339><c> years</c><00:21:56.640><c> later,</c><00:21:57.779><c> Nebuchadnezzar</c><00:21:58.140><c> has</c>

00:21:58.400 --> 00:22:03.420
the<00:21:58.660><c> vision</c><00:21:58.940><c> of</c><00:22:00.859><c> Chapter</c><00:22:02.200><c> 4.</c>

00:22:04.019 --> 00:22:07.079
And<00:22:04.180><c> Nebuchadnezzar</c><00:22:04.700><c> is</c><00:22:04.920><c> still</c><00:22:05.220><c> a</c><00:22:05.359><c> little</c><00:22:05.599><c> bit,</c><00:22:06.079><c> I</c><00:22:06.359><c> don't</c><00:22:06.660><c> want</c><00:22:06.839><c> to</c>

00:22:07.079 --> 00:22:08.720
just<00:22:07.519><c> defer</c><00:22:07.940><c> to</c><00:22:08.160><c> the</c><00:22:08.359><c> Jews.</c>

We're<00:24:46.299><c> not</c><00:24:46.440><c> told</c><00:24:46.519><c> how</c><00:24:46.720><c> long</c><00:24:46.920><c> it</c><00:24:47.079><c> takes.</c>

00:24:48.140 --> 00:24:50.940
The<00:24:48.440><c> inference</c><00:24:48.740><c> is,</c><00:24:49.539><c> well,</c><00:24:49.700><c> just</c><00:24:49.900><c> as</c><00:24:50.059><c> long</c><00:24:50.180><c> as</c><00:24:50.299><c> the</c><00:24:50.460><c> captivity.</c>

00:24:50.940 --> 00:24:52.740
God's<00:24:51.559><c> going</c><00:24:51.700><c> to</c><00:24:51.819><c> speed</c><00:24:52.059><c> things</c><00:24:52.339><c> up.</c>

00:24:52.940 --> 00:24:54.380
Messiah<00:24:53.160><c> will</c><00:24:53.400><c> appear.</c>

00:24:54.900 --> 00:24:57.039
Look<00:24:55.059><c> at</c><00:24:55.220><c> the</c><00:24:55.359><c> effect</c><00:24:55.640><c> that</c><00:24:55.779><c> this</c><00:24:55.900><c> had</c><00:24:56.019><c> on</c><00:24:56.240><c> Daniel.</c>

00:24:57.319 --> 00:25:00.980
At<00:24:57.400><c> the</c><00:24:57.559><c> end</c><00:24:57.700><c> of</c><00:24:57.859><c> the</c><00:24:57.960><c> matter,</c><00:24:59.079><c> in</c><00:24:59.200><c> verse</c><00:24:59.400><c> 28,</c><00:25:00.240><c> Daniel</c><00:25:00.680><c> said,</c>

00:25:01.240 --> 00:25:04.319
my<00:25:01.240><c> thoughts</c><00:25:01.559><c> greatly</c><00:25:02.200><c> alarmed</c><00:25:02.539><c> me</c><00:25:02.680><c> and</c><00:25:02.779><c> my</c><00:25:02.980><c> colour</c><00:25:03.180><c> changed.</c>

00:25:04.960 --> 00:25:09.599
His<00:25:05.440><c> anxiety</c><00:25:05.920><c> grew</c><00:25:06.420><c> and</c><00:25:07.099><c> it</c><00:25:07.559><c> scared</c><00:25:07.740><c> him</c><00:25:07.960><c> so</c><00:25:08.259><c> much</c><00:25:08.700><c> because</c><00:25:09.079><c> he</c><00:25:09.359><c> learned.</c>

00:25:09.700 --> 00:25:11.859
Imagine<00:25:10.000><c> this,</c><00:25:10.140><c> he</c><00:25:10.200><c> gets</c><00:25:10.420><c> back</c><00:25:10.660><c> to</c><00:25:10.779><c> the</c><00:25:10.960><c> offices</c><00:25:11.240><c> and</c><00:25:11.440><c> they're</c><00:25:11.700><c> like,</c>

00:25:11.859 --> 00:25:14.880
Daniel,<00:25:12.599><c> what's</c><00:25:12.980><c> wrong?</c><00:25:13.319><c> You've</c><00:25:13.559><c> taken</c><00:25:13.759><c> a</c><00:25:13.960><c> turn.</c>

00:25:15.519 --> 00:25:17.039
And<00:25:15.720><c> he</c><00:25:15.779><c> doesn't</c><00:25:16.019><c> even</c><00:25:16.299><c> want</c><00:25:16.359><c> to</c><00:25:16.539><c> talk</c><00:25:16.779><c> about</c><00:25:16.960><c> it.</c>

00:25:17.039 --> 00:25:17.980
He<00:25:17.160><c> keeps</c><00:25:17.299><c> it</c><00:25:17.420><c> in</c><00:25:17.460><c> his</c><00:25:17.700><c> heart.</c>

00:25:18.099 --> 00:25:19.940
He<00:25:18.299><c> must</c><00:25:18.559><c> have</c><00:25:18.740><c> told</c><00:25:19.019><c> them.</c>

00:25:20.200 --> 00:25:22.000
He<00:25:20.759><c> must</c><00:25:21.059><c> have</c><00:25:21.200><c> told</c><00:25:21.400><c> them</c><00:25:21.599><c> that.</c>

00:25:22.099 --> 00:25:24.859
I<00:25:22.400><c> had</c><00:25:22.660><c> no</c><00:25:22.960><c> idea</c><00:25:23.240><c> about</c><00:25:23.460><c> the</c><00:25:23.720><c> time</c><00:25:23.980><c> frame.</c>

00:25:25.380 --> 00:25:30.460
It's<00:25:25.640><c> going</c><00:25:25.759><c> to</c><00:25:25.900><c> go</c><00:25:26.059><c> on</c><00:25:26.259><c> for</c><00:25:26.700><c> 1260</c><00:25:28.579><c> more</c><00:25:29.059><c> years.</c>

00:25:31.380 --> 00:25:33.000
At<00:25:31.720><c> least.</c>

00:25:33.059 --> 00:25:35.059
What<00:25:33.380><c> are</c><00:25:33.460><c> you</c><00:25:33.579><c> talking</c><00:25:33.859><c> about,</c><00:25:34.160><c> Daniel?</c>

00:25:36.900 --> 00:25:38.460
A<00:25:37.460><c> very</c><00:25:37.799><c> long</c><00:25:38.019><c> time.</c>

00:25:38.839 --> 00:25:41.359
But<00:25:39.059><c> surely</c><00:25:39.400><c> your</c><00:25:40.500><c> kingdom</c><00:25:40.880><c> will</c><00:25:41.140><c> last.</c>

00:25:41.500 --> 00:25:42.740
No,<00:25:42.039><c> not</c><00:25:42.220><c> my</c><00:25:42.480><c> kingdom.</c>

00:25:43.059 --> 00:25:46.400

00:25:52.440 --> 00:25:56.319
Daniel<00:25:52.579><c> had</c><00:25:52.940><c> no</c><00:25:53.420><c> idea</c><00:25:53.920><c> about</c><00:25:54.220><c> that</c><00:25:54.519><c> type</c><00:25:54.740><c> of</c><00:25:55.180><c> time</c><00:25:55.400><c> frame.</c>

00:25:57.759 --> 00:25:58.440
It's<00:25:57.880><c> all</c><00:25:58.000><c> right</c><00:25:58.119><c> for</c><00:25:58.279><c> us.</c>

00:25:58.579 --> 00:26:00.019
We<00:25:58.579><c> go,</c><00:25:59.019><c> well,</c><00:25:59.019><c> that's</c><00:25:59.380><c> Daniel</c><00:25:59.599><c> seven.</c>

00:26:00.500 --> 00:26:02.299
It<00:26:00.799><c> blew</c><00:26:01.059><c> his</c><00:26:01.380><c> mind.</c>

00:26:02.559 --> 00:26:05.160
Two<00:26:02.799><c> years</c><00:26:03.140><c> later,</c><00:26:03.480><c> after</c><00:26:03.720><c> he</c><00:26:03.799><c> gets</c><00:26:04.000><c> over</c><00:26:04.259><c> that,</c>

out<00:28:35.299><c> again</c>

00:30:25.720 --> 00:30:28.039
What<00:30:25.980><c> do</c><00:30:26.200><c> you</c><00:30:26.240><c> mean</c><00:30:26.400><c> Messiah</c><00:30:26.759><c> cut</c><00:30:27.059><c> off?</c>

00:30:29.059 --> 00:30:32.180
Utterly<00:30:29.519><c> astonishing</c><00:30:29.980><c> for</c><00:30:31.180><c> a</c><00:30:31.279><c> Jew</c><00:30:31.400><c> to</c><00:30:31.619><c> see</c><00:30:31.759><c> that.</c>

00:30:32.400 --> 00:30:34.539
No,<00:30:33.039><c> we're</c><00:30:33.180><c> going</c><00:30:33.460><c> back.</c>

00:30:34.579 --> 00:30:38.180
Messiah<00:30:34.680><c> will</c><00:30:34.960><c> appear,</c><00:30:36.240><c> then</c><00:30:36.240><c> the</c><00:30:37.079><c> stone</c><00:30:37.339><c> will</c><00:30:37.619><c> smite</c><00:30:37.799><c> the</c><00:30:38.019><c> image</c>

00:30:42.140 --> 00:30:47.299
And<00:30:42.279><c> then,</c><00:30:44.740><c> he</c><00:30:44.940><c> who</c><00:30:45.059><c> is</c><00:30:45.220><c> to</c><00:30:45.380><c> come,</c><00:30:45.660><c> the</c><00:30:45.779><c> prince</c><00:30:46.079><c> will</c><00:30:46.680><c> destroy</c>

00:30:50.720 --> 00:30:52.740
You<00:30:50.880><c> can't</c><00:30:51.339><c> circumvent</c><00:30:51.819><c> it,</c><00:30:52.140><c> Daniel.</c>

00:30:53.119 --> 00:30:56.880
God<00:30:53.299><c> is</c><00:30:53.559><c> merciful,</c><00:30:54.640><c> but</c><00:30:54.799><c> the</c><00:30:55.160><c> city</c><00:30:55.400><c> and</c><00:30:55.599><c> the</c><00:30:55.900><c> sanctuary</c><00:30:56.299><c> will</c>

well,<00:31:03.359><c> if</c><00:31:03.579><c> Messiah</c><00:31:03.940><c> is</c><00:31:04.299><c> to</c><00:31:04.460><c> be</c><00:31:04.640><c> cut</c><00:31:04.839><c> off,</c><00:31:06.460><c> why</c><00:31:06.779><c> are</c><00:31:06.940><c> we</c><00:31:07.180><c> punished</c><00:31:07.559><c> for</c><00:31:07.859><c> it?</c>

00:31:08.700 --> 00:31:11.480
Why<00:31:08.980><c> do</c><00:31:09.180><c> you</c><00:31:09.200><c> take</c><00:31:09.460><c> away</c><00:31:09.680><c> our</c><00:31:10.039><c> city</c><00:31:10.380><c> and</c><00:31:10.640><c> our</c><00:31:11.000><c> sanctuary</c><00:31:11.339><c> and</c>

00:31:14.519 --> 00:31:17.680
Even<00:31:14.859><c> posing</c><00:31:15.240><c> that</c><00:31:15.559><c> question</c><00:31:16.079><c> gives</c><00:31:16.839><c> the</c><00:31:17.039><c> answer,</c><00:31:17.279><c> doesn't</c><00:31:17.539><c> it?</c>

00:31:24.500 --> 00:31:26.000
That's<00:31:25.079><c> right.</c>

00:31:26.559 --> 00:31:30.680
It<00:31:26.700><c> dawns</c><00:31:27.019><c> on</c><00:31:27.259><c> Daniel</c><00:31:27.480><c> probably</c><00:31:27.920><c> like</c><00:31:28.380><c> no</c><00:31:28.720><c> Jew</c><00:31:28.900><c> before</c><00:31:29.579><c> and</c><00:31:30.319><c> no</c>

00:31:32.299 --> 00:31:36.000
Daniel<00:31:32.579><c> may</c><00:31:32.839><c> be</c><00:31:32.980><c> the</c><00:31:33.140><c> only</c><00:31:33.440><c> one</c><00:31:33.640><c> in</c><00:31:33.819><c> the</c><00:31:33.940><c> Old</c><00:31:34.140><c> Testament</c><00:31:34.460><c> that</c><00:31:34.779><c> understands</c>

00:31:41.839 --> 00:31:43.819
They're<00:31:42.140><c> the</c><00:31:42.299><c> ones</c><00:31:42.480><c> that</c><00:31:42.660><c> are</c><00:31:42.799><c> going</c><00:31:42.920><c> to</c><00:31:43.099><c> kill</c><00:31:43.240><c> him.</c>

00:31:43.819 --> 00:31:47.119
And<00:31:44.559><c> so</c><00:31:44.740><c> he</c><00:31:44.839><c> was</c><00:31:45.079><c> so</c><00:31:45.380><c> upset</c><00:31:45.740><c> to</c><00:31:46.019><c> know</c><00:31:46.299><c> that</c><00:31:46.519><c> God</c><00:31:46.680><c> was</c><00:31:46.839><c> going</c><00:31:46.940><c> to</c><00:31:46.980><c> send</c>

once<00:31:49.279><c> more.</c>

00:31:49.759 --> 00:31:53.759
It<00:31:49.799><c> was</c><00:31:50.059><c> because</c><00:31:50.700><c> of</c><00:31:51.779><c> transgression,</c><00:31:52.559><c> a</c><00:31:52.740><c> transgression</c><00:31:53.200><c> which</c><00:31:53.359><c> was</c>

00:31:53.759 --> 00:31:55.359
absolutely<00:31:54.420><c> inconceivable.</c>

00:31:55.640 --> 00:31:57.440
They're<00:31:55.839><c> going</c><00:31:55.980><c> to</c><00:31:56.160><c> kill</c><00:31:56.319><c> the</c><00:31:56.519><c> Messiah.</c>

00:32:00.400 --> 00:32:01.339
Wow.

00:32:01.819 --> 00:32:04.160
Did<00:32:02.039><c> Daniel</c><00:32:02.339><c> tell</c><00:32:02.619><c> that</c><00:32:02.839><c> to</c><00:32:02.980><c> the</c><00:32:03.160><c> wise</c><00:32:03.359><c> men?</c>

00:32:04.859 --> 00:32:06.880
I<00:32:05.200><c> don't</c><00:32:05.299><c> know</c><00:32:05.420><c> if</c><00:32:05.500><c> he</c><00:32:05.700><c> did.</c>

00:32:07.299 --> 00:32:09.799
Because<00:32:07.480><c> it</c><00:32:07.599><c> doesn't</c><00:32:07.859><c> look</c><00:32:08.099><c> like</c><00:32:08.279><c> they</c><00:32:09.079><c> understand</c><00:32:09.660><c> it.</c>

00:32:09.920 --> 00:32:11.539
When<00:32:09.920><c> they,</c><00:32:10.460><c> you</c><00:32:10.660><c> go</c><00:32:10.819><c> back</c><00:32:11.039><c> to</c><00:32:11.200><c> Matthew.</c>

00:32:11.539 --> 00:32:13.559
I'm<00:32:12.059><c> sorry</c><00:32:12.220><c> for</c><00:32:12.380><c> spending</c><00:32:12.559><c> so</c><00:32:12.720><c> much</c><00:32:12.839><c> time</c><00:32:13.059><c> out,</c><00:32:13.240><c> but</c><00:32:13.279><c> you've</c>

00:32:13.559 --> 00:32:14.160
got<00:32:13.619><c> to</c><00:32:13.819><c> understand.</c>

00:32:14.240 --> 00:32:17.460
This<00:32:14.460><c> is</c><00:32:14.740><c> the</c><00:32:14.920><c> massive</c><00:32:15.200><c> example</c><00:32:16.259><c> and</c><00:32:16.859><c> influence</c><00:32:17.180><c> of</c><00:32:17.440><c> Daniel.</c>

00:32:17.460 --> 00:32:19.759
Go<00:32:17.660><c> back</c><00:32:17.839><c> to</c><00:32:18.000><c> Matthew</c><00:32:18.279><c> 2.</c>

00:32:20.680 --> 00:32:22.799
And<00:32:20.740><c> these</c><00:32:20.980><c> men</c><00:32:21.259><c> had,</c><00:32:21.799><c> they</c><00:32:22.079><c> had</c><00:32:22.259><c> some</c><00:32:22.480><c> understanding,</c>

00:32:22.859 --> 00:32:26.019
but<00:32:23.420><c> I</c><00:32:24.140><c> don't</c><00:32:24.279><c> think</c><00:32:24.339><c> Daniel</c><00:32:24.640><c> told</c><00:32:24.880><c> them</c><00:32:25.059><c> this.</c>

00:32:26.039 --> 00:32:28.759
Messiah,<00:32:26.559><c> the</c><00:32:26.640><c> king</c><00:32:26.799><c> of</c><00:32:26.900><c> the</c><00:32:27.039><c> Jews,</c><00:32:27.200><c> is</c><00:32:27.339><c> going</c><00:32:27.460><c> to</c><00:32:27.579><c> be</c><00:32:27.740><c> killed.</c>

00:32:29.319 --> 00:32:31.240
And<00:32:29.539><c> it's</c><00:32:29.720><c> going</c><00:32:29.779><c> to</c><00:32:29.839><c> be</c><00:32:29.960><c> another</c><00:32:30.240><c> 490</c><00:32:30.940><c> years.</c>

00:32:31.259 --> 00:32:34.240
At<00:32:31.400><c> least</c><00:32:31.759><c> he</c><00:32:32.160><c> told</c><00:32:32.400><c> them</c><00:32:32.579><c> about</c><00:32:32.799><c> the</c><00:32:33.079><c> time</c><00:32:33.279><c> period.</c>

00:32:34.680 --> 00:32:37.000
And<00:32:34.960><c> so</c><00:32:35.140><c> they're</c><00:32:35.420><c> ready</c><00:32:35.740><c> and</c><00:32:36.140><c> they're</c><00:32:36.319><c> a</c><00:32:36.400><c> little</c><00:32:36.519><c> bit</c><00:32:36.740><c> late</c>

00:32:37.000 --> 00:32:40.599
because<00:32:37.319><c> they're</c><00:32:37.400><c> not,</c><00:32:38.380><c> the</c><00:32:38.619><c> star</c><00:32:39.140><c> appeared.</c>

00:32:42.059 --> 00:32:45.240
And<00:32:42.119><c> two</c><00:32:42.359><c> years</c><00:32:42.559><c> later</c><00:32:42.839><c> they</c><00:32:43.339><c> turn</c><00:32:43.759><c> up</c><00:32:43.980><c> in</c><00:32:44.259><c> Jerusalem.</c>

00:32:46.059 --> 00:32:47.279
So<00:32:46.200><c> it</c><00:32:46.339><c> heralds</c><00:32:46.640><c> that</c><00:32:46.779><c> he's</c><00:32:46.960><c> here.</c>

00:32:47.720 --> 00:32:49.039
I<00:32:47.900><c> wonder</c><00:32:48.059><c> if</c><00:32:48.180><c> they</c><00:32:48.400><c> understood</c><00:32:48.779><c> this.</c>

00:32:49.099 --> 00:32:50.339
Look<00:32:49.200><c> at</c><00:32:49.339><c> this.</c>

00:32:50.519 --> 00:32:52.420
I<00:32:50.579><c> wonder</c><00:32:50.660><c> how</c><00:32:50.920><c> much</c><00:32:51.180><c> these</c><00:32:51.480><c> men</c><00:32:51.779><c> believed.</c>

00:32:52.880 --> 00:32:56.339
Because<00:32:53.039><c> they</c><00:32:53.380><c> certainly</c><00:32:53.880><c> believed</c><00:32:54.359><c> about</c><00:32:54.660><c> the</c><00:32:54.940><c> kingdom</c><00:32:55.480><c> of</c>

00:32:56.339 --> 00:32:57.539
God<00:32:56.579><c> to</c><00:32:56.759><c> come.</c>

00:32:57.740 --> 00:33:01.700
But<00:32:57.940><c> I</c><00:32:58.059><c> wonder</c><00:32:58.279><c> if</c><00:32:58.420><c> they</c><00:32:58.619><c> knew</c><00:32:58.759><c> this</c><00:32:59.019><c> about</c><00:32:59.460><c> the,</c><00:33:00.839><c> about</c><00:33:01.200><c> the</c><00:33:01.380><c> Messiah.</c>

00:33:01.920 --> 00:33:02.940
Look<00:33:02.099><c> at</c><00:33:02.240><c> the</c><00:33:02.420><c> emphasis.</c>

00:33:02.940 --> 00:33:05.539
Verse<00:33:04.460><c> 11.</c>

00:33:33.579 --> 00:33:36.480
He<00:33:34.180><c> rose</c><00:33:34.500><c> and</c><00:33:34.599><c> took</c><00:33:34.740><c> the</c><00:33:34.920><c> child</c><00:33:35.200><c> and</c><00:33:35.700><c> his</c><00:33:36.180><c> mother.</c>

00:33:36.539 --> 00:33:40.039
What<00:33:36.700><c> do</c><00:33:36.819><c> you</c><00:33:36.900><c> think</c><00:33:37.039><c> we're</c><00:33:37.259><c> having</c><00:33:37.660><c> emphasized</c><00:33:38.259><c> there,</c><00:33:38.920><c> brothers</c><00:33:39.019><c> and</c><00:33:39.259><c> sisters?</c>

00:33:41.160 --> 00:33:42.359
Where's<00:33:41.500><c> dad?</c>

00:33:45.539 --> 00:33:48.700
Do<00:33:45.779><c> you</c><00:33:45.819><c> think</c><00:33:45.960><c> these</c><00:33:46.420><c> wise</c><00:33:46.740><c> men,</c><00:33:47.019><c> do</c><00:33:47.240><c> you</c><00:33:47.240><c> think</c><00:33:47.380><c> they</c><00:33:47.660><c> understood</c>

00:33:48.839 --> 00:33:53.920
that<00:33:49.440><c> the</c><00:33:49.799><c> king</c><00:33:50.000><c> of</c><00:33:50.160><c> the</c><00:33:50.299><c> Jews</c><00:33:50.500><c> would</c><00:33:51.279><c> literally</c><00:33:51.819><c> be</c><00:33:52.599><c> the</c><00:33:53.720><c> son</c>

of<00:33:54.099><c> God?</c>

00:33:55.900 --> 00:33:59.500
That's<00:33:56.380><c> what's</c><00:33:56.759><c> emphasized</c><00:33:57.319><c> there</c><00:33:57.740><c> in</c><00:33:58.079><c> Matthew</c><00:33:58.380><c> chapter</c><00:33:58.640><c> 2.</c>

00:33:59.500 --> 00:34:03.400
By<00:33:59.980><c> all</c><00:34:00.279><c> those</c><00:34:01.039><c> punctuated</c><00:34:01.740><c> verses</c><00:34:02.079><c> the</c><00:34:02.359><c> phrase</c><00:34:02.599><c> his</c><00:34:02.920><c> mother,</c>

his<00:34:03.799><c> mother.</c>

00:34:06.240 --> 00:34:10.139
Because<00:34:06.319><c> out</c><00:34:06.500><c> of</c><00:34:06.660><c> Egypt</c><00:34:07.019><c> have</c><00:34:07.319><c> I</c><00:34:07.519><c> called</c><00:34:07.640><c> my</c><00:34:08.000><c> son</c><00:34:08.500><c> in</c><00:34:08.840><c> verse</c><00:34:09.039><c> 15.</c>

00:34:11.719 --> 00:34:14.239
So<00:34:11.940><c> did</c><00:34:12.159><c> they,</c><00:34:12.420><c> they</c><00:34:12.739><c> believed</c><00:34:13.059><c> evidently</c><00:34:13.539><c> but</c><00:34:13.679><c> maybe</c><00:34:13.960><c> not</c><00:34:14.119><c> to</c>

that<00:34:14.420><c> degree.</c>

00:34:14.760 --> 00:34:16.880
Maybe<00:34:14.980><c> they</c><00:34:15.139><c> didn't</c><00:34:15.280><c> understand</c><00:34:15.800><c> it.</c>

00:34:16.980 --> 00:34:20.320
But<00:34:17.320><c> because</c><00:34:17.840><c> of</c><00:34:18.099><c> Daniel's</c><00:34:18.500><c> influence,</c><00:34:19.699><c> they're</c><00:34:20.000><c> there.</c>

00:34:22.539 --> 00:34:24.880
They've<00:34:22.840><c> been</c><00:34:23.059><c> looking</c><00:34:23.340><c> for</c><00:34:23.579><c> a</c><00:34:23.880><c> star.</c>

00:34:25.539 --> 00:34:28.659

00:34:31.219 --> 00:34:33.579
It's<00:34:31.539><c> a</c><00:34:31.599><c> little</c><00:34:31.820><c> acknowledgement</c><00:34:32.280><c> back</c><00:34:32.559><c> to</c><00:34:32.820><c> Daniel.</c>

00:34:36.480 --> 00:34:39.400
The<00:34:36.639><c> one</c><00:34:36.800><c> that</c><00:34:37.059><c> glittered</c><00:34:37.320><c> through</c><00:34:37.519><c> the</c><00:34:37.739><c> dark</c><00:34:37.980><c> night</c><00:34:38.179><c> of</c><00:34:38.320><c> the</c><00:34:38.480><c> captivity.</c>

00:35:01.780 --> 00:35:04.300
They're<00:35:02.019><c> looking</c><00:35:02.219><c> for</c><00:35:02.440><c> something</c><00:35:02.719><c> at</c><00:35:02.900><c> the</c><00:35:02.940><c> end</c><00:35:03.099><c> of</c><00:35:03.280><c> 490</c><00:35:03.860><c> years</c>

00:35:04.300 --> 00:35:10.039
which<00:35:04.699><c> would</c><00:35:05.099><c> suggest</c><00:35:05.559><c> that</c><00:35:06.199><c> the</c><00:35:06.559><c> king,</c><00:35:07.099><c> the</c><00:35:07.340><c> star</c><00:35:07.760><c> of</c><00:35:07.940><c> the</c><00:35:08.139><c> Jews</c><00:35:08.659><c> would</c><00:35:09.059><c> be</c><00:35:09.260><c> born.</c>

00:35:10.059 --> 00:35:12.679
It's<00:35:10.239><c> just</c><00:35:10.440><c> an</c><00:35:10.579><c> amazing</c><00:35:11.099><c> concept</c><00:35:11.539><c> to</c><00:35:11.719><c> think</c><00:35:11.880><c> about.</c>

00:35:12.699 --> 00:35:16.079
But<00:35:13.019><c> we've</c><00:35:13.619><c> got</c><00:35:13.719><c> the</c><00:35:13.920><c> battle</c><00:35:14.099><c> of</c><00:35:14.219><c> the</c><00:35:14.400><c> kings</c><00:35:14.639><c> on</c><00:35:15.159><c> our</c><00:35:15.400><c> hand</c>

00:35:16.800 --> 00:35:22.000
because<00:35:17.360><c> this</c><00:35:17.920><c> man</c><00:35:18.239><c> here,</c><00:35:18.860><c> Herod,</c><00:35:19.900><c> is</c><00:35:20.159><c> not</c><00:35:20.480><c> a</c><00:35:20.719><c> very</c><00:35:21.039><c> nice</c><00:35:21.480><c> person.</c>

00:35:22.000 --> 00:35:26.800
He's<00:35:22.800><c> an</c><00:35:23.019><c> Edomite</c><00:35:24.079><c> and</c><00:35:24.619><c> he's</c><00:35:25.800><c> absolutely</c><00:35:26.280><c> astonished</c>

00:35:26.800 --> 00:35:30.659
though<00:35:27.000><c> he</c><00:35:27.380><c> feigns</c><00:35:27.860><c> to</c><00:35:28.159><c> be</c><00:35:28.840><c> considerably</c><00:35:29.960><c> interested</c><00:35:30.460><c> in</c>

00:35:30.659 --> 00:35:31.159
these<00:35:30.820><c> events.</c>

00:35:31.340 --> 00:35:34.500
He<00:35:31.559><c> certainly</c><00:35:32.039><c> is,</c><00:35:32.639><c> but</c><00:35:32.880><c> not</c><00:35:33.059><c> for</c><00:35:33.199><c> the</c><00:35:33.360><c> right</c><00:35:33.539><c> reasons.</c>

00:35:34.539 --> 00:35:35.940
He's<00:35:34.820><c> an</c><00:35:34.820><c> absolute</c><00:35:35.360><c> psychopath.</c>

00:35:36.119 --> 00:35:37.139
He<00:35:36.119><c> had</c><00:35:36.280><c> ten</c><00:35:36.559><c> wives.</c>

00:35:37.519 --> 00:35:40.980
I'm<00:35:37.719><c> not</c><00:35:37.940><c> sure</c><00:35:38.079><c> which</c><00:35:38.300><c> order</c><00:35:38.440><c> those</c><00:35:38.719><c> came</c><00:35:38.960><c> in,</c><00:35:39.119><c> by</c><00:35:39.260><c> the</c><00:35:39.400><c> way,</c>

00:35:41.039 --> 00:35:42.500
whether<00:35:41.239><c> they</c><00:35:41.519><c> sent</c><00:35:41.639><c> him</c><00:35:41.800><c> round</c><00:35:41.960><c> the</c><00:35:42.199><c> twist.</c>

00:35:43.000 --> 00:35:48.199
But<00:35:43.420><c> he's</c><00:35:44.219><c> paranoid,</c><00:35:46.420><c> absolutely</c><00:35:46.900><c> paranoid</c><00:35:47.300><c> about</c><00:35:47.539><c> his</c><00:35:47.920><c> position.</c>

00:35:48.199 --> 00:35:52.659
He<00:35:48.880><c> killed</c><00:35:49.159><c> one</c><00:35:49.579><c> of</c><00:35:49.619><c> his</c><00:35:49.739><c> own</c><00:35:50.019><c> sons</c><00:35:50.500><c> and</c><00:35:51.699><c> some</c><00:35:51.940><c> of</c><00:35:52.079><c> his</c><00:35:52.219><c> relatives</c>

00:35:52.659 --> 00:35:56.539
only<00:35:53.219><c> because</c><00:35:54.059><c> he</c><00:35:54.539><c> wanted</c><00:35:54.800><c> to</c><00:35:55.039><c> maintain</c><00:35:55.440><c> power.</c>

00:35:56.920 --> 00:35:58.340
And<00:35:57.000><c> the</c><00:35:57.179><c> Jews</c><00:35:57.420><c> used</c><00:35:57.719><c> to</c><00:35:57.840><c> say</c><00:35:58.039><c> about</c><00:35:58.199><c> him,</c>

00:35:58.400 --> 00:36:00.420
it's<00:35:58.460><c> better</c><00:35:58.619><c> to</c><00:35:58.760><c> be</c><00:35:58.840><c> his</c><00:35:59.079><c> pig</c><00:35:59.219><c> than</c><00:35:59.380><c> his</c><00:35:59.559><c> son.</c>

00:36:01.900 --> 00:36:03.480
That's<00:36:02.079><c> what</c><00:36:02.199><c> he</c><00:36:02.300><c> was</c><00:36:02.460><c> like.</c>

00:36:04.539 --> 00:36:06.440
And<00:36:04.639><c> I</c><00:36:05.280><c> can't</c><00:36:05.460><c> remember.</c>

00:36:07.199 --> 00:36:10.900
I<00:36:07.260><c> think</c><00:36:07.539><c> it</c><00:36:07.659><c> was</c><00:36:08.639><c> Edersheim,</c><00:36:09.360><c> actually,</c><00:36:09.480><c> I</c><00:36:09.579><c> got</c><00:36:09.679><c> that</c><00:36:09.900><c> from.</c>

00:36:11.820 --> 00:36:13.820
But<00:36:12.000><c> it</c><00:36:12.119><c> is</c><00:36:12.239><c> a</c><00:36:12.380><c> genuine</c><00:36:12.599><c> footnote</c>

00:36:14.280 --> 00:36:17.300
that<00:36:14.679><c> at</c><00:36:15.079><c> the</c><00:36:15.199><c> time</c><00:36:15.360><c> of</c><00:36:15.519><c> his</c><00:36:15.659><c> death</c><00:36:15.840><c> when</c><00:36:16.119><c> after</c><00:36:16.460><c> such</c><00:36:16.699><c> a</c><00:36:16.860><c> long</c><00:36:17.000><c> illness</c>

00:36:17.300 --> 00:36:21.440
he<00:36:17.539><c> commanded</c><00:36:18.019><c> his</c><00:36:18.820><c> men</c><00:36:19.039><c> that</c><00:36:19.239><c> the</c><00:36:19.440><c> chief</c><00:36:19.739><c> priests</c><00:36:20.320><c> of</c><00:36:21.099><c> Jerusalem</c>

00:36:21.440 --> 00:36:25.380
would<00:36:21.639><c> be</c><00:36:21.820><c> executed</c><00:36:22.360><c> so</c><00:36:23.860><c> that</c><00:36:24.340><c> they</c><00:36:24.719><c> wouldn't</c><00:36:24.940><c> rejoice</c>

00:36:25.380 --> 00:36:26.139
at<00:36:25.559><c> the</c><00:36:25.599><c> time</c><00:36:25.780><c> of</c><00:36:25.900><c> his</c><00:36:26.000><c> death.</c>

00:36:26.320 --> 00:36:27.079
He<00:36:26.340><c> knew</c><00:36:26.679><c> he</c><00:36:26.800><c> was</c><00:36:26.900><c> hated.</c>

00:36:27.179 --> 00:36:28.639
He<00:36:27.280><c> didn't</c><00:36:27.480><c> care.</c>

00:36:29.380 --> 00:36:30.760
Absolute<00:36:29.820><c> narcissist.</c>

00:36:32.440 --> 00:36:34.420
That<00:36:32.519><c> they'd</c><00:36:32.760><c> be</c><00:36:32.940><c> mourning</c><00:36:33.199><c> instead</c><00:36:33.519><c> of</c><00:36:33.699><c> celebrating</c><00:36:34.099><c> over</c>

00:36:34.420 --> 00:36:35.500
his<00:36:34.619><c> death.</c>

00:36:36.860 --> 00:36:39.260
So<00:36:37.300><c> what</c><00:36:37.739><c> was</c><00:36:37.980><c> Daniel's</c><00:36:38.480><c> secret?</c>

00:36:39.420 --> 00:36:42.300
What<00:36:39.579><c> are</c><00:36:39.659><c> some</c><00:36:39.840><c> of</c><00:36:39.980><c> the</c><00:36:40.079><c> things</c><00:36:40.340><c> that</c><00:36:40.480><c> we've</c><00:36:40.719><c> seen</c><00:36:40.920><c> for</c><00:36:41.400><c> Daniel?</c>

00:36:42.539 --> 00:36:44.500
Well,<00:36:42.719><c> we've</c><00:36:42.920><c> seen</c><00:36:43.119><c> that</c><00:36:43.559><c> he</c><00:36:43.679><c> was</c><00:36:43.820><c> a</c><00:36:43.880><c> man</c><00:36:44.039><c> of</c><00:36:44.280><c> prayer.</c>

00:36:44.500 --> 00:36:48.440
How<00:36:44.659><c> many</c><00:36:44.900><c> prayers</c><00:36:45.139><c> did</c><00:36:45.300><c> he</c><00:36:45.380><c> offer</c><00:36:45.699><c> in</c><00:36:47.559><c> Babylon</c>

00:36:48.500 --> 00:36:50.719
over<00:36:48.880><c> that</c><00:36:49.119><c> 70</c><00:36:49.420><c>-year</c><00:36:49.519><c> period?</c>

00:36:51.920 --> 00:36:55.860
At<00:36:52.079><c> least</c><00:36:52.380><c> 75</c><00:36:52.900><c>,000</c><00:36:53.900><c> fervent,</c><00:36:54.519><c> powerful</c><00:36:55.360><c> prayers</c>

00:36:55.860 --> 00:36:58.659
facing<00:36:56.280><c> Jerusalem,</c><00:36:57.119><c> praying</c><00:36:57.400><c> on</c><00:36:57.599><c> behalf</c><00:36:57.920><c> of</c><00:36:58.079><c> his</c><00:36:58.260><c> people.</c>

00:36:59.019 --> 00:37:00.639
And<00:36:59.159><c> then</c><00:36:59.260><c> he</c><00:36:59.400><c> offered</c><00:36:59.579><c> prayers</c><00:36:59.920><c> for</c><00:37:00.179><c> his</c><00:37:00.400><c> food</c>

00:37:00.639 --> 00:37:01.739
and<00:37:00.739><c> then</c><00:37:00.840><c> he</c><00:37:00.980><c> offered</c><00:37:01.099><c> other</c><00:37:01.480><c> prayers.</c>

00:37:01.860 --> 00:37:02.840
There's<00:37:01.960><c> no</c><00:37:02.179><c> doubt</c><00:37:02.340><c> at</c><00:37:02.579><c> all.</c>

00:37:02.960 --> 00:37:05.980
It<00:37:03.039><c> wasn't</c><00:37:03.280><c> all</c><00:37:03.739><c> formal</c><00:37:04.340><c> occasions</c><00:37:04.900><c> of</c><00:37:05.159><c> prayer.</c>

00:37:06.179 --> 00:37:08.039
And<00:37:06.300><c> we</c><00:37:06.420><c> know</c><00:37:06.539><c> he</c><00:37:06.639><c> was</c><00:37:06.900><c> a</c><00:37:07.280><c> wise</c><00:37:07.639><c> man</c>

00:37:08.039 --> 00:37:09.960
and<00:37:08.320><c> he</c><00:37:08.460><c> had</c><00:37:08.699><c> an</c><00:37:09.000><c> excellent</c><00:37:09.460><c> spirit</c>

00:37:09.960 --> 00:37:11.980
and<00:37:10.360><c> he</c><00:37:10.440><c> was</c><00:37:10.719><c> an</c><00:37:11.019><c> excellent</c><00:37:11.340><c> example.</c>

00:37:11.980 --> 00:37:14.820
And<00:37:12.619><c> remember,</c><00:37:13.019><c> he</c><00:37:13.079><c> didn't</c><00:37:13.300><c> just</c><00:37:13.519><c> go</c><00:37:14.019><c> back</c><00:37:14.239><c> to</c><00:37:14.500><c> work</c>

00:37:14.820 --> 00:37:16.940
and<00:37:15.420><c> make</c><00:37:15.860><c> a</c><00:37:16.099><c> stand</c><00:37:16.280><c> about</c><00:37:16.559><c> something.</c>

00:37:17.420 --> 00:37:19.760
He<00:37:17.579><c> went</c><00:37:18.000><c> quietly</c><00:37:18.500><c> about</c><00:37:18.820><c> his</c><00:37:19.300><c> work</c>

00:37:19.760 --> 00:37:22.360
and<00:37:20.079><c> he</c><00:37:20.280><c> became</c><00:37:20.599><c> known</c><00:37:21.039><c> as</c><00:37:21.340><c> a</c><00:37:21.539><c> consistent</c><00:37:22.000><c> person</c>

00:37:22.360 --> 00:37:23.440
that<00:37:22.559><c> could</c><00:37:22.780><c> be</c><00:37:23.000><c> relied</c><00:37:23.199><c> on.</c>

00:37:23.699 --> 00:37:24.840
That<00:37:23.900><c> was</c><00:37:24.119><c> what</c><00:37:24.400><c> Daniel</c><00:37:24.599><c> was.</c>

00:37:25.139 --> 00:37:27.079

00:37:39.440 --> 00:37:41.920
He<00:37:40.139><c> was</c><00:37:40.280><c> an</c><00:37:40.440><c> incredible</c><00:37:40.860><c> example.</c>

00:38:20.739 --> 00:38:23.880

These<00:39:04.820><c> weeks</c><00:39:05.099><c> are</c><00:39:05.199><c> good</c><00:39:05.420><c> for</c><00:39:05.599><c> that.</c>

Now,<00:39:07.500><c> here's</c><00:39:08.380><c> the</c><00:39:08.719><c> chronology</c><00:39:09.179><c> of</c><00:39:09.340><c> the</c><00:39:09.460><c> time.</c>

00:39:14.599 --> 00:39:16.639
So,<00:39:15.039><c> Christ</c><00:39:15.079><c> is</c><00:39:15.280><c> born</c><00:39:15.460><c> in</c><00:39:15.719><c> Luke</c><00:39:15.920><c> chapter</c><00:39:16.199><c> two</c>

00:39:19.280 --> 00:39:21.920

00:39:28.099 --> 00:39:30.679
Christ<00:39:28.400><c> is</c><00:39:28.579><c> then</c><00:39:28.840><c> subsequently</c><00:39:29.500><c> circumcised</c><00:39:30.219><c> around</c><00:39:30.480><c> eight</c>

00:39:32.980 --> 00:39:36.639
So,<00:39:32.980><c> 40</c><00:39:33.280><c> days</c><00:39:33.519><c> later</c><00:39:33.760><c> he's</c><00:39:34.800><c> presented</c><00:39:34.800><c> to</c><00:39:35.840><c> the</c><00:39:36.280><c> temple</c>

00:39:36.639 --> 00:39:38.900
where,<00:39:37.019><c> you</c><00:39:37.039><c> know,</c><00:39:37.519><c> Simeon</c><00:39:37.699><c> picks</c><00:39:37.940><c> him</c><00:39:38.139><c> up</c>

00:39:38.900 --> 00:39:41.480
and<00:39:39.599><c> he's</c><00:39:39.900><c> so</c><00:39:40.199><c> excited</c><00:39:40.659><c> now</c><00:39:40.900><c> he</c><00:39:41.000><c> can</c><00:39:41.199><c> die</c>

00:39:41.480 --> 00:39:43.179
because<00:39:41.699><c> he's</c><00:39:42.019><c> seen</c><00:39:42.300><c> the</c><00:39:42.500><c> Lord's</c><00:39:42.820><c> anointed.</c>

00:39:43.400 --> 00:39:45.760
That's<00:39:43.539><c> 40</c><00:39:44.460><c> days</c><00:39:44.719><c> later.</c>

00:39:45.960 --> 00:39:50.719
And<00:39:46.119><c> maybe</c><00:39:46.320><c> they</c><00:39:46.780><c> settle</c><00:39:47.079><c> down</c><00:39:47.679><c> and</c><00:39:48.019><c> reside</c><00:39:48.360><c> in</c><00:39:48.559><c> the</c><00:39:48.619><c> area</c><00:39:48.880><c> of</c><00:39:49.059><c> Bethlehem</c>

00:39:55.219 --> 00:39:57.880
But<00:39:55.420><c> up</c><00:39:55.619><c> to</c><00:39:55.840><c> two</c><00:39:56.039><c> years</c><00:39:56.300><c> old,</c><00:39:56.719><c> around</c><00:39:57.019><c> that</c><00:39:57.320><c> time</c><00:39:57.559><c> period,</c>

00:39:58.019 --> 00:39:59.420

00:39:59.420 --> 00:40:04.000
And<00:40:00.139><c> he's</c><00:40:00.639><c> not</c><00:40:00.840><c> a</c><00:40:01.000><c> baby,</c><00:40:02.059><c> he's</c><00:40:02.519><c> a</c><00:40:02.699><c> little</c><00:40:02.960><c> child.</c>

00:40:04.019 --> 00:40:06.619
It's<00:40:04.159><c> not</c><00:40:04.300><c> a</c><00:40:04.500><c> manger,</c><00:40:05.579><c> but</c><00:40:05.760><c> they're</c><00:40:05.920><c> in</c><00:40:06.059><c> the</c><00:40:06.300><c> house,</c>

00:40:06.760 --> 00:40:09.500

00:40:10.000 --> 00:40:11.699
And<00:40:10.139><c> it's</c><00:40:10.380><c> afterwards</c><00:40:10.599><c> they</c><00:40:10.860><c> flee</c><00:40:11.059><c> into</c><00:40:11.199><c> Egypt</c>

00:40:11.699 --> 00:40:15.360

00:40:15.360 --> 00:40:18.139
when<00:40:15.719><c> they</c><00:40:15.920><c> come</c><00:40:16.159><c> back</c><00:40:16.460><c> after</c><00:40:16.760><c> God</c><00:40:16.960><c> calls</c><00:40:17.260><c> him</c><00:40:17.420><c> out</c><00:40:17.559><c> of</c><00:40:17.679><c> Egypt</c>

into<00:40:18.840><c> Nazareth.</c>

00:40:21.059 --> 00:40:24.920
So,<00:40:21.579><c> Herod</c><00:40:21.980><c> the</c><00:40:22.219><c> king,</c><00:40:23.340><c> he</c><00:40:23.599><c> says</c><00:40:23.900><c> to,</c><00:40:24.599><c> you</c><00:40:24.639><c> know,</c>

and<00:40:30.780><c> can</c><00:40:31.039><c> you</c><00:40:31.039><c> imagine</c><00:40:31.300><c> how</c><00:40:31.559><c> mad</c><00:40:31.820><c> he</c><00:40:32.000><c> is?</c>

00:40:33.539 --> 00:40:36.099
Why<00:40:33.940><c> didn't</c><00:40:34.119><c> you</c><00:40:34.340><c> guys</c><00:40:34.599><c> tell</c><00:40:34.800><c> me</c><00:40:34.980><c> about</c><00:40:35.199><c> this</c><00:40:35.400><c> king</c><00:40:35.579><c> of</c><00:40:35.699><c> the</c><00:40:35.900><c> Jews?</c>

00:40:36.280 --> 00:40:37.059
Where<00:40:36.420><c> is</c><00:40:36.500><c> he</c><00:40:36.559><c> going</c><00:40:36.659><c> to</c><00:40:36.679><c> be</c><00:40:36.900><c> born?</c>

They<00:40:37.219><c> go,</c><00:40:37.420><c> well,</c><00:40:37.519><c> it's</c><00:40:37.659><c> Micah</c><00:40:37.960><c> 5.</c>

00:40:38.719 --> 00:40:39.860
He's<00:40:38.900><c> going</c><00:40:39.000><c> to</c><00:40:39.059><c> be</c><00:40:39.239><c> born</c><00:40:39.360><c> in</c><00:40:39.539><c> Bethlehem.</c>

00:40:40.019 --> 00:40:41.920
But<00:40:40.260><c> we</c><00:40:40.659><c> didn't</c><00:40:40.980><c> know.</c>

00:40:42.300 --> 00:40:43.219
We're<00:40:42.559><c> not</c><00:40:42.780><c> aware.</c>

00:40:43.719 --> 00:40:45.420
And<00:40:43.940><c> he's</c><00:40:44.079><c> so</c><00:40:44.360><c> mad</c><00:40:44.559><c> he</c><00:40:44.659><c> tells</c><00:40:44.900><c> the</c><00:40:45.139><c> wise</c><00:40:45.300><c> men,</c>

He's<00:40:46.980><c> in</c><00:40:47.139><c> Bethlehem,</c><00:40:47.719><c> but</c><00:40:47.840><c> when</c><00:40:47.920><c> you</c><00:40:48.500><c> find</c><00:40:48.780><c> him,</c><00:40:49.159><c> you</c><00:40:49.239><c> know,</c>

00:40:49.739 --> 00:40:51.699

00:40:51.699 --> 00:40:53.079
because<00:40:51.860><c> I</c><00:40:52.139><c> also</c><00:40:52.380><c> want</c><00:40:52.559><c> to</c><00:40:52.679><c> worship</c><00:40:52.920><c> him.</c>

00:40:55.340 --> 00:40:58.719
And<00:40:56.000><c> so</c><00:40:56.340><c> the</c><00:40:56.960><c> men</c><00:40:57.219><c> leave</c><00:40:57.699><c> and</c><00:40:58.059><c> they're</c><00:40:58.420><c> unaware.</c>

00:40:58.840 --> 00:41:00.119
They<00:40:58.960><c> think,</c><00:40:59.179><c> oh,</c><00:40:59.360><c> well,</c><00:40:59.460><c> this</c><00:40:59.619><c> is</c><00:40:59.800><c> exciting.</c>

00:41:00.219 --> 00:41:00.960
We've<00:41:00.480><c> brought</c><00:41:00.619><c> news.</c>

00:41:01.000 --> 00:41:02.440

00:41:04.320 --> 00:41:08.360
But<00:41:04.460><c> on</c><00:41:04.699><c> their</c><00:41:04.840><c> way,</c><00:41:05.519><c> there's</c><00:41:06.400><c> an</c><00:41:06.679><c> angel</c><00:41:06.940><c> that</c><00:41:07.239><c> warns</c><00:41:07.559><c> them</c><00:41:07.980><c> not</c><00:41:08.179><c> to</c>

go<00:41:08.599><c> back.</c>

00:41:08.980 --> 00:41:10.780
Well,<00:41:09.260><c> when</c><00:41:09.420><c> they</c><00:41:09.639><c> leave,</c><00:41:09.940><c> rather,</c><00:41:10.059><c> they're</c><00:41:10.380><c> warned</c><00:41:10.500><c> not</c><00:41:10.659><c> to</c>

go<00:41:10.920><c> back</c>

00:41:11.099 --> 00:41:13.699
but<00:41:11.260><c> to</c><00:41:11.440><c> get</c><00:41:11.639><c> out</c><00:41:11.920><c> as</c><00:41:12.159><c> quick</c><00:41:12.320><c> as</c><00:41:12.539><c> possible</c><00:41:12.820><c> to</c><00:41:12.980><c> their</c><00:41:13.139><c> own</c><00:41:13.320><c> country.</c>

00:41:13.980 --> 00:41:17.400
But<00:41:14.119><c> the</c><00:41:14.380><c> star</c><00:41:14.579><c> appears</c><00:41:15.239><c> and</c><00:41:16.219><c> guides</c><00:41:16.539><c> them</c><00:41:16.699><c> to</c><00:41:16.860><c> the</c><00:41:17.039><c> house</c>

00:41:17.400 --> 00:41:19.000
and<00:41:17.860><c> they</c><00:41:18.179><c> finally</c><00:41:18.500><c> get</c><00:41:18.760><c> there.</c>

00:41:19.139 --> 00:41:20.039
And<00:41:19.320><c> look</c><00:41:19.420><c> what</c><00:41:19.519><c> it</c><00:41:19.719><c> says.</c>

00:41:20.039 --> 00:41:24.980
When<00:41:20.480><c> they</c><00:41:21.340><c> saw</c><00:41:21.619><c> the</c><00:41:21.880><c> star,</c><00:41:22.599><c> they</c><00:41:22.860><c> rejoiced</c><00:41:24.000><c> exceedingly</c>

00:41:24.980 --> 00:41:26.539
with<00:41:25.360><c> great</c><00:41:25.579><c> joy.</c>

00:41:26.599 --> 00:41:28.159
And<00:41:26.719><c> so</c><00:41:26.860><c> they're</c><00:41:27.380><c> so</c><00:41:27.719><c> happy.</c>

00:41:28.380 --> 00:41:29.400
They're<00:41:28.519><c> probably</c><00:41:28.719><c> dancing</c>

00:41:29.400 --> 00:41:32.440
and<00:41:29.579><c> they've</c><00:41:29.880><c> got</c><00:41:30.179><c> with</c><00:41:30.360><c> the</c><00:41:30.460><c> rest</c><00:41:30.599><c> of</c><00:41:30.739><c> their</c><00:41:30.960><c> caravan</c><00:41:31.400><c> music</c><00:41:32.000><c> playing</c>

00:41:35.679 --> 00:41:38.099
And<00:41:35.820><c> Joseph</c><00:41:36.159><c> answers</c><00:41:36.619><c> that</c><00:41:37.199><c> night.</c>

00:41:38.559 --> 00:41:41.260

00:42:58.440 --> 00:43:01.739

Okay.
