I Think, Therefore I Am | Part 3

1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:07,960
So Zach, I you may have heard
about this epic DND night that.

2
00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:12,520
My goodness, what AI?
Honestly, even if I was cut out

3
00:00:12,520 --> 00:00:14,720
for the DND lifestyle, I don't
think I could hang with you

4
00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:16,120
guys.
I don't think I could do it.

5
00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:21,880
I was not, I was like, Oh my
goodness, it was a one shot.

6
00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:26,200
Which means it's like, you know,
our normal thing where I'm DM

7
00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:29,360
ING it's several different
sessions.

8
00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:32,280
Into one like a whole.
Well, as I said, what we're

9
00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:34,040
doing is several different.
It's called a campaign.

10
00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:37,880
So it's like you're, you're, you
know, it's this epic journey and

11
00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:39,680
you're not trying to get it all
done in one night.

12
00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:41,240
Like how could you?
Yeah, how could you?

13
00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:43,120
But this was trying to sandwich
them.

14
00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:45,080
All, I mean, right.
And it was already, we already

15
00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:48,960
did one like 1/3 of it before we
left for Christmas.

16
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:50,440
And we're like, we couldn't get
done.

17
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:53,800
And so we're like, well, we'll
just pick it up and finish up

18
00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:55,520
another night.
And so we kind of had the

19
00:00:55,520 --> 00:01:00,760
mindset of we're just gonna get
through this and buckle up, man.

20
00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:04,720
But before I left for that, I
had exercised that day.

21
00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:08,480
I was doing stuff around the
house, stuff was going on.

22
00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:11,840
I go up to like take my shower.
Right before I go I turn the

23
00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:14,960
water on and hold my hand out in
like 3 minutes and the water is

24
00:01:14,960 --> 00:01:16,000
not.
Getting cold?

25
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:16,760
Oh man.
And.

26
00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:18,680
I'm starting to get a little
frustrated.

27
00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:21,720
I'm like, what is going on?
Like what have like, did you

28
00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:23,360
know?
Yeah, what could possibly be

29
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:26,040
Like normally you get a little
bit of temperature raise even if

30
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:26,960
you're down.
Yeah.

31
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:29,520
And I go down like, what's going
on?

32
00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:31,120
And Jill's like, well, I just
started a load of towels.

33
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:33,560
Like would we put it on hot?
She's like, yeah, but I always

34
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:37,560
wash towels on hot.
And so, so I just suffer through

35
00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:42,040
the cold shower.
And it reminded me, literally,

36
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:44,840
it reminded me that I was like
trying to get through.

37
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:50,840
So I head off to, 'cause I was,
I investigated the, the washer

38
00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:53,120
and tried to like change the
temp.

39
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:58,840
What we realized was that that
washer was just stuck open,

40
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:02,800
draining the hot.
Water just.

41
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:05,680
Draining it.
And so Jill calls me.

42
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:07,920
She's like, I don't know, did
you do something?

43
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:10,039
I was like, well, it was just
like running, running when I was

44
00:02:10,039 --> 00:02:12,040
there.
I tried to stop it and I did

45
00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:14,160
stop it.
So I was like, well, unplug it.

46
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:16,320
The water still kept going.
I was like, well, turn those

47
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:20,440
valves off.
So Long story short, I got in

48
00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:22,880
that night.
I got it to spin the towels dry

49
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:24,960
or you know, and then I put
those in the dryer.

50
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:29,600
It's like I it was late night.
I'll try to just let it rest.

51
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:31,440
Look at it the next day, next
day.

52
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:35,160
The now the valves won't open.
So we got a it's under extended

53
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:35,800
warranty.
That's.

54
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:38,080
Good, good.
Call.

55
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:41,280
So you're still hot waterless.
Oh, no, no, Oh no.

56
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:43,520
This was the.
Past this is the hot water was

57
00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:45,800
fine it was just getting drained
by the washer going forever.

58
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:49,360
So that's the washer that's
that's not working toes washer.

59
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:54,000
So it was under extended
warranty set it up when Sunday

60
00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:56,920
like we the first available
appointment is Wednesday.

61
00:02:56,920 --> 00:03:00,960
I'm like OK yeah we can probably
go that long without washing

62
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:04,040
clothes but then the next
available appointment was next

63
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:04,600
Wednesday.
Oh.

64
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:08,360
Man.
The 14th So I get a confirmation

65
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:12,800
tonight and I happened to just
send Adm to Lowe's like it

66
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:16,280
doesn't make sense to me in this
area.

67
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:18,240
Why there's no?
There'd be that few.

68
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:19,400
Appointments.
Yeah, it's weird.

69
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:22,760
And she's like, we're, you know,
we're sorry, I'll send this over

70
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,080
to the and she's like, but did
you get it set up on it?

71
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:26,800
I did get it set up.
I just got in there and she's

72
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:28,640
like in your, from what you told
me, it's the 7th.

73
00:03:28,640 --> 00:03:30,680
And I'm glad she said that
number because I hadn't really

74
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:33,720
paid attention 'cause it said
Wednesday and it was the 14th is

75
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:35,600
when they and I was like, no, we
cannot do that.

76
00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:38,160
So Lowe's, I'm not happy with
you.

77
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:39,840
It's kind of a.
And they were like, we're just

78
00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:41,320
booked like they don't hire
enough people.

79
00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:46,120
No, I had to like call in and
finally it was a phone tree of

80
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:48,160
phone trees like my third.
Call so I.

81
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:51,320
Finally got a person and they
reset it up so now it's going to

82
00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:56,360
be Thursday with a different
repair shop but.

83
00:03:56,760 --> 00:04:00,040
And and tying D&D into it.
You probably like have a changed

84
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:01,960
clothes three times because it
went so long.

85
00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:06,640
Yeah, for the audience.
What time did you wrap it up?

86
00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:11,160
Should we say this out loud?
You don't have to be want to.

87
00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:12,960
Yeah.
Well, we, we had said it at

88
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:15,360
5:30.
It's when we started and we

89
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:17,360
talked.
We were, we have a group.

90
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:20,320
So we were talking 5:30.
We all said the words 530.

91
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:24,640
Sorry about this Jonathan.
I made the event while I was in

92
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:26,880
Arkansas, like I made.
Central Time.

93
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:30,520
And it captured the fact that I
was in central time, so they all

94
00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:34,240
saw it at 6:30.
So most of us, just like, I

95
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:37,440
didn't even realize it was that
there was a discrepancy till we

96
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:38,800
got back here.
And someone was like, all right,

97
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:41,320
what time's everyone showing up?
You know, 'cause you got to some

98
00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,680
people show up early to kind of
get things set up and.

99
00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:45,960
You got to settle in.
And John was like, I'm going to

100
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:47,640
be there at 6:00.
I was like, why is he going to

101
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:52,160
be there 30 minutes late?
And I was like, Oh well, I

102
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:56,000
thought we're going to go at
5:30 and he's and Alex is like

103
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:58,720
530.
And, and so I thought what we

104
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:01,720
said and I went and looked at
the and I thought, oh, it says

105
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:03,400
630.
So I went and changed it real

106
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:06,000
quick.
But so anyways, so we probably

107
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:07,640
didn't start.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

108
00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:10,600
Because there's some other
confusion till like 636. 40

109
00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:13,120
wrapped up at like 8:00 or 9:00
reasonable time. 8:00 Yeah,

110
00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:16,280
yeah, yeah.
Well, at 12, we're like we're,

111
00:05:16,280 --> 00:05:18,080
we're wrapping up.
Yeah, yeah.

112
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:20,520
And so you stopped right then.
At 1:00, we're wrapping.

113
00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:21,280
Up.
Uh oh.

114
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:23,680
I start like and then the brakes
when I'm not doing anything, I

115
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:26,280
like start cleaning up, like
getting trash, 'cause I like I

116
00:05:26,280 --> 00:05:30,440
want us to go out at 2:00, we're
finishing up.

117
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:32,400
Still going?
Did you finish?

118
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:34,760
We finished it.
We did finish it.

119
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:39,680
What time 330I think is when we
left it was, it was crazy.

120
00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:44,080
I didn't get home till like four
and then I and you would think

121
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:46,080
you would just get into your bed
and just, you would think

122
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,040
immediately fall asleep and it's
like you can't.

123
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:50,840
I was like, you know, so it was
probably I didn't fall asleep

124
00:05:50,840 --> 00:05:52,120
till 4:30.
What Saturday?

125
00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:55,000
I can't remember the last time I
stayed up to 330.

126
00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:56,320
It's been a minute.
New Year's.

127
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:58,880
I stayed up past midnight, but
that's to me.

128
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:02,240
I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm a, I'm a
early to bed kind of guy at this

129
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:05,040
point in my life.
But yeah, you know, D&D people

130
00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:06,760
need to know.
It's not for the faint of heart.

131
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:09,200
You gotta like, you gotta like,
be ready.

132
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:12,880
Yeah, you, you have to
physically be kind of there just

133
00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:15,080
like you expect your character
to be there, you know what I'm

134
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:16,920
saying?
It's it's it's you have to have

135
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:19,600
that stamina, that constitution
saving role here.

136
00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:22,400
You.
Go people die in D&D, Characters

137
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:23,400
die.
Yeah.

138
00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:26,600
And in fact, we ended with the
we, we just made-up some

139
00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:30,040
characters for this one shot.
But my character basically died

140
00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:33,760
except for that I remembered in
in the the big bad guy that we

141
00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:35,120
were fighting.
It was close to dying.

142
00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:38,240
And I was like, I was almost
like, yeah, I'm dead.

143
00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:42,400
I can't really contribute more.
But then I remembered that we

144
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:45,200
didn't calculate one thing that
my character would do to the big

145
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:47,520
bad guy.
And that was enough that the DM

146
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:50,080
was like, yeah, that's close
enough that that takes him out

147
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:51,760
and we'll call it, we'll call
him.

148
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:57,000
Well, I say that because as we
try to segue into Joshua, the

149
00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:01,600
way I love this book, the way
that this guy Dale Route Davis

150
00:07:01,840 --> 00:07:06,760
frames Joshua is he wants us to
look at the four funerals that

151
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,920
Joshua talks about.
One in chapter 1, three in

152
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:11,920
chapter.
I think 24th, the very end has

153
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,640
like these bookends that Joshua
that tell us something about how

154
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:18,720
we should read the book.
So let's talk funerals, let's

155
00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:21,360
talk Joshua.
Let's take it to the next level.

156
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:30,800
Let's fire up that twanga music.
From the hearts of the Low

157
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:36,120
Country in South Carolina.
It's the Take Two podcast where

158
00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:38,320
we take theology to the next
level.

159
00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:42,120
Funerals.
Yeah, there's a Psalm or Proverb

160
00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:45,080
that talks about better to be at
a funeral.

161
00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:47,880
So I guess so.
It's good that we're studying

162
00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:51,480
Joshua if it's four funerals.
John, John Piper takes this very

163
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:54,320
literally where he's like, yeah,
I don't.

164
00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:58,160
I guess it's easier if you were
pastoring like a large church.

165
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:01,040
Yeah, such as Bethlehem.
But he was like, I, I try to

166
00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:04,400
make it a practice to attend
like one funeral a month, one

167
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:06,160
wedding a month.
I don't want to see both sides

168
00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:09,000
of the sadness and the happiness
and just keep balanced.

169
00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:11,280
Yeah, I hate funerals.
I know I hate them.

170
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:15,040
I know I hate them.
This is like, either they're in

171
00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:18,960
heaven and there's nothing you
can do, or they're in hell and

172
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:20,600
there's nothing and there's
nothing you can do.

173
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:22,880
It's like man.
Yeah.

174
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:25,760
Well, if you're getting into
Joshua, I think where my mind

175
00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:28,400
goes initially is be strong and
of good courage.

176
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:30,000
This is Joshua one that's like
what sticks in my mind.

177
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:32,799
Very important.
But we're going to talk a little

178
00:08:32,799 --> 00:08:36,120
bit about the four funerals.
One of the getting 3 at the end.

179
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:39,559
Do you want to guess who some of
these characters are that that

180
00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:42,480
die that's mentioned as die?
So these are like, not

181
00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:44,440
figurative funerals, these are
literal.

182
00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:47,840
And funerals might be.
It's not like there's a service

183
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:50,280
Moses.
Moses is a chapter 1, then

184
00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:54,080
there's three at the end.
Aiken.

185
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:56,480
These are these are good
guesses, not Aiken.

186
00:08:56,480 --> 00:09:00,320
OK, Caleb.
Oh, that's a good guess.

187
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:02,440
Not Caleb.
It is one.

188
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:05,440
What is the title of the book?
Oh, Joshua, Joshua.

189
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,960
And then if you think Moses and
Aaron, a lot of times it's like

190
00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:11,640
Joshua and Eleazar.
It's kind of like the right hand

191
00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:15,440
kind of kind of man the the
priestly arm of everything.

192
00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:18,680
And then the other one probably
not expected is Joseph.

193
00:09:18,680 --> 00:09:20,760
They took his bones and buried
them, right.

194
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:23,920
So you have and you got to think
like, OK, why is the author like

195
00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:25,880
throwing in Joseph here?
Why are we starting off with

196
00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:28,040
Moses?
Good things to think about.

197
00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:29,800
Obviously you can think about
Moses and.

198
00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:33,800
'Cause they took Jacob's bones
immediately up and buried them.

199
00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:36,760
That must have.
Just they just kept Joseph

200
00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:37,400
Bones.
Yeah.

201
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:40,600
Exactly right.
What do you call this things?

202
00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:44,960
It's like Austria, Austria.
And you know how big these

203
00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:47,280
things ought to be, do you know?
I don't think they had to be.

204
00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:48,760
That big They did not.
There was.

205
00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:54,160
There's had to be because at
least they, I think they shot

206
00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:55,960
for like the size of the femur
'cause that's like the longest

207
00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:56,920
build.
So like if you think about how

208
00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:58,800
long a finger, that's like, you
know, if you're thinking of

209
00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,080
'cause they could fit multiple
these in tombs and that's how

210
00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:02,360
families could be in tombs or
whatever.

211
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:04,280
I think you can correct me if
this is wrong, but you would

212
00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:07,160
like be buried for a year or
something or go back in like

213
00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:08,440
they would be a process.
Right, right.

214
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:12,840
I think they would, you know,
put spices and wrap you and then

215
00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:15,560
basically like leave it sealed
up for a year.

216
00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:19,280
And basically they're allowing
all the soft tissue to decay

217
00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:21,400
away and then they come in and
they collect the bones and put

218
00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:24,000
them in the ossuary.
And then you might have so in

219
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:27,360
one, you'd have more than one.
One thing you know, you should

220
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:29,160
talk about the femur being the
longest bone.

221
00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:31,320
Quick aside, that actually came
up in an airplane.

222
00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:34,080
Did it ride one time?
Because this lady like was

223
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:36,840
leaning back in front of me and
it was all those things like she

224
00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:40,240
was literally hitting it and I
was, and she was like, and I,

225
00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:43,560
you know, I'm such a nice person
in these situations.

226
00:10:43,560 --> 00:10:46,640
But I said something like,
Ma'am, your chair is not going

227
00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:49,760
to go back any further because I
have a 36 inch femur.

228
00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:50,880
I don't know.
I was just guessing.

229
00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:52,280
It's around 3 feet.
That's funny.

230
00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:54,720
That's probably not 3 feet, but.
Yeah, that's something like you

231
00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:57,640
think I'm like pants, pants in
seam, 36 inches, you know?

232
00:10:57,680 --> 00:11:00,440
Yeah, that's your femur.
So maybe 18 inch, I don't know,

233
00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:03,320
but you know, a big femur was
like it's not going back any

234
00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:04,560
further.
So like.

235
00:11:05,560 --> 00:11:07,320
Nothing's going to happen here,
that's always.

236
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:09,880
I don't know if you have strong
opinions on this cremation

237
00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:12,280
buried debate.
You know, some people are like,

238
00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:15,080
man, I got to be buried no
matter what.

239
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:18,400
And I was like, well, you know,
even, you know, it's like, well,

240
00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:20,080
bones or it's things will
happen.

241
00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:26,360
But going back to chapter 1,
Moses passes off the scene.

242
00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:28,960
It's talked about, I don't know,
maybe maybe turn to Joshua one,

243
00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:33,280
maybe you can read some of these
as we go.

244
00:11:33,560 --> 00:11:36,200
But in a lot of ways, this
chapter 1 is really framing

245
00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:38,840
Joshua as the new Moses, giving
some credence.

246
00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:42,400
And Moses was such a great
figure in Israel's history.

247
00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:44,760
It's like, how could someone
even measure up?

248
00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:47,200
So I don't know if it's like the
first 9 or 10 verses you want to

249
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:48,200
read.
I don't know, kind of like.

250
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:49,360
Sure.
You want me to just read and you

251
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:50,360
can hold your hand up?
Yeah.

252
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:53,280
But yeah, I have my first.
Section of people, Yeah, yeah.

253
00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:55,920
Is through 9.
Let's do that, says now.

254
00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:59,560
It came about after the death of
Moses the servant of the Lord,

255
00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:04,600
that the Lord spoke to Joshua
the son of Nun, Moses's servant,

256
00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:07,480
saying, Moses, my servant is
dead.

257
00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:11,960
Now therefore arise cross this
Jordan, you and all this people,

258
00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:15,360
to the land which I am giving to
them, the sons of Israel.

259
00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:19,800
Every place on which the sole of
your foot treads, I have given

260
00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:23,760
it to you, just as I spoke to
Moses from the wilderness.

261
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:27,920
And this Lebanon, even as far as
the great river, the river

262
00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:31,600
Euphrates, all the land of the
Hittites, and as far as the

263
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:34,680
great sea toward the setting of
the sun, will be your territory.

264
00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:38,200
No man will be able to stand
before you all the days of your

265
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:41,760
life, Just as I have been with
Moses, I will be with you.

266
00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:44,720
I will not fail you or forsake
you.

267
00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:48,880
Be strong and courageous, for
you shall give this people

268
00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:51,920
possession of the land which I
swore to their fathers to give

269
00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:54,440
them.
Only be strong and very

270
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:57,040
courageous.
Be careful to do according to

271
00:12:57,040 --> 00:13:00,360
all the law which my which Moses
my servant commanded you.

272
00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:04,240
Do not turn from it to the right
or to the left, so that you may

273
00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:07,840
have success wherever you go.
This book of the Law shall not

274
00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:11,640
depart from your mouth, but you
shall meditate on it day and

275
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:15,320
night, so that you may be
careful to do according to all

276
00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:19,000
that is written in it.
For then you will make your way

277
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:21,600
prosperous, and then you will
have success.

278
00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:26,080
Have I not commanded you?
Be strong and courageous.

279
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:29,560
Do not tremble or be dismayed,
for the Lord your God is with

280
00:13:29,560 --> 00:13:31,520
you wherever you go.
Nice.

281
00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:33,880
Probably a lot of familiar
verses in there.

282
00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:36,560
A lot of repetition on like be
strong and courageous, a lot of

283
00:13:36,560 --> 00:13:38,800
repetition.
I don't know if you and there'll

284
00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:41,840
be more of this as the chapter
progresses, but in chapter 1,

285
00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:45,480
Moses mentioned like 11 times,
like there's a lot of talk of

286
00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:46,840
Moses, right?
And so there's like this

287
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:51,520
intentional passing of the
guard, you know, a lot building

288
00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:53,760
up Joshua that, you know, when
you say something just like

289
00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:56,560
Moses said it, there's, there's
a lot of, a lot of that.

290
00:13:56,560 --> 00:14:00,120
And when you look in chapter 1,
there's really it, it's

291
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:01,800
interesting.
There's not a lot of narrative.

292
00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:03,880
There's speeches are coming
towards.

293
00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:09,680
So that was like speech #1 and
then there's speech #2 speech #1

294
00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:14,040
you know, is really God talking
and speech #2 Joshua is kind of

295
00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:17,400
relaying some stuff.
So you kind of see what's going

296
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:18,960
on.
And as you read chapter 1 there,

297
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:22,920
there's really 2 emphases, talks
a lot about this land.

298
00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:24,960
That's a gift.
God has given you this land.

299
00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:29,120
But then #2 is it's not, it's
not, it's not just going to like

300
00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:30,800
up here, you got to go and take
the land.

301
00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:35,480
There's a command, God is doing
this, but there's a means you

302
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:38,400
got to do this.
And at the center of it, we, we

303
00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:42,080
alluded to this last time, man
centered versus God centered.

304
00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:48,520
We see a lot pointing at God is
at the center, Yahweh is at the

305
00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:50,920
center.
And when you think of, you know,

306
00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:53,160
land promise, this is not like
the first time anyone's reading

307
00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:55,000
about promised land in
Scripture.

308
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:56,480
What?
There's land that's been

309
00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:59,280
promised.
Right, this goes back like super

310
00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:03,600
far.
Genesis 1518, Deuteronomy 17

311
00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:08,840
also echo what you just read
this lands pretty best the

312
00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:10,440
eastern borders, the Euphrates
river.

313
00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:12,680
Like look that up on a map.
If you don't notice that's like

314
00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:14,640
it's not what you think of.
What do you think of Israel,

315
00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:16,440
Right, that's an expanded.
Border.

316
00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:19,560
Yeah, it's over into Iraq.
Yeah, so it's like worth a look,

317
00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:21,040
'cause you're like, that's
actually that's a lot.

318
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:23,440
And that's mentioned four or
five different times in

319
00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:24,040
Scripture.
Like that.

320
00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:28,000
Specifically, though, Moses was
great.

321
00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:30,960
It'd be, you know, prior to most
people's perspective.

322
00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:32,920
No one's going to measure up and
fill his shoes.

323
00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:38,520
Yahweh's promise really spans
much farther than just Moses,

324
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:40,240
like goes back to like that
whole time.

325
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:44,840
Yahweh, he's the God of Abraham,
Isaac, Jacob, Moses, Joshua.

326
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:48,600
And what's interesting is
Joshua, Moses is off the scene.

327
00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:50,720
It talks about, you know, Moses
has passed.

328
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:54,040
There's not a lot of weeping and
wailing and wanting.

329
00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:58,320
It's more like, go do it.
There's action cross the Jordan.

330
00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:00,880
It's like just Yahweh promised
this, it's gonna happen.

331
00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:02,720
It's not like let's cry about
it.

332
00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:07,520
And what's it?
Read verse 5 for us again.

333
00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:11,040
Says no man will be able to
stand before you all the days of

334
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:13,400
your life.
Just as I've been with Moses, I

335
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:16,480
will be with you.
I will not fail you or forsake

336
00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:17,640
you.
Great.

337
00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:22,560
If you compare that to Exodus 3,
you see, you see maybe some

338
00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:23,800
echoes of it and this kind of
goes you.

339
00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:26,000
Want to read Exodus?
Three, yeah, Exodus 3 verse 12,

340
00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:30,920
not exact same, but it's kind of
this time where Moses is maybe

341
00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:34,840
not wanting to speak about
everything and God's kind of

342
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:37,000
like, I'll be with you.
It's kind of almost of the same

343
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:39,920
verbiage.
And he said, certainly I will be

344
00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:42,160
with you, and this shall be the
sign to you.

345
00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:45,240
That is I who have sent you.
When you have brought the people

346
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:47,600
out of Egypt, you shall worship
God at this mountain.

347
00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:51,040
Emphasizing I will be with you
is kind of the thing.

348
00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:54,400
Verse 679, we've got this theme
of strong and courageous that we

349
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:58,360
probably memorized as kids.
Not because you know, Joshua is

350
00:16:58,360 --> 00:16:59,920
great.
Joshua is even as good as Moses

351
00:16:59,920 --> 00:17:03,760
because Yahweh is with him.
One more passage to read.

352
00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:07,720
Maybe if you want to flip to
Hebrews 13, we'll look at 5:00

353
00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:10,599
and 6:00 and we'll kind of see
maybe some of this New Testament

354
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:14,720
connection or application.
It says be sure that your

355
00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:17,119
character is free from the love
of money.

356
00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:18,000
Is that right?
Yeah.

357
00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:19,800
Yeah, this is good.
So interesting how this will

358
00:17:19,839 --> 00:17:21,760
because he quotes I think Joshua
here.

359
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:24,480
Being content with what you
have.

360
00:17:24,599 --> 00:17:28,760
For He himself has said, I will
never desert you, nor will I

361
00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:32,840
ever forsake you, so that we can
confidently say the Lord is my

362
00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:34,600
helper.
I will not be afraid.

363
00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:37,160
What will man do to me?
Isn't it so interesting?

364
00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:39,960
Some of this quote from Joshua
is applied to the love of money.

365
00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:42,560
Isn't that like weird?
Like it's not what you would

366
00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:45,600
expect, but it's how the author
of Hebrews takes this phrase

367
00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:47,840
like be strong and courageous,
God's with you, right?

368
00:17:48,120 --> 00:17:50,320
Don't load money like that's
pretty crazy.

369
00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:50,760
You know what?
I.

370
00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:52,640
Mean yeah, like.
I never thought about that.

371
00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:55,160
These material possessions, you
don't have to have them.

372
00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:58,800
Don't have to have them and and
because God's with you.

373
00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:03,640
So kind of continuing on this
train of thought, Yahweh is with

374
00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:09,320
Joshua, but his presence is
integrally connected to the

375
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:12,040
Torah, Yahweh's word.
Those things are not separates.

376
00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:15,480
He's with you, but you need to
be careful to do all that the

377
00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:18,320
Torah, all that you've been
instructed, which Moses

378
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:21,040
commanded.
It's not like Joshua.

379
00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:22,440
We read this like secret
feeling.

380
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:24,160
It's like no, no, no, it's none
of that.

381
00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:26,320
It's like same thing in Psalm
one.

382
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:29,960
It's like, OK, there are clear
instructions, you do this, good

383
00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:31,800
things will happen.
And yes, God did talk to Joshua

384
00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:35,160
in a special way too, but it's
not like he had all this Torah

385
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:39,720
to meditate on day and night.
Lack of this study really would

386
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:46,080
result in a lack of obedience.
And then what we probably won't

387
00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:48,360
read forsake of time is the
second part of this chapter.

388
00:18:48,360 --> 00:18:50,640
How how many verses are in
chapter 1 is like 18 or

389
00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:52,240
something maybe?
Yeah, 18.

390
00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:56,240
So half of this chapter is
really Joshua's that this

391
00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:58,360
building of a Joshua.
The second-half of the chapter,

392
00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:02,320
what's interesting is a lot of
it is given to the unity of

393
00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:04,600
Israel.
Presumably this would be

394
00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:06,800
important.
A big leader passes off this

395
00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:10,040
scene.
We see a lot of unification,

396
00:19:10,360 --> 00:19:12,960
especially in light.
I think there's reference a

397
00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:16,760
little bit to numbers 32 and we
all know what number 32 is

398
00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:18,200
about.
We all know that like on top of

399
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:22,760
it, Cliff notes, it's 'cause
this is an illusion back and #32

400
00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:27,600
talks about the 2 or 2 1/2
tribes Gad, Manasseh and Reuben

401
00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:30,480
that were like, hey Moses, we
don't need to cross with Jordan.

402
00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:33,880
Can we take this land?
And Moses response was like, you

403
00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:35,480
guys are the worst.
You just don't want to fight.

404
00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:36,920
You don't want to drive out
these people.

405
00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:39,480
You can't do that.
They're like, OK, what if we

406
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:40,760
promise we'll go across and
fight?

407
00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:43,600
We'll leave our families here
before we come back and occupy

408
00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:45,400
the land.
And Moses, like I will hold you

409
00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:47,640
to it because if you don't, you
know what this looks like to me,

410
00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:50,760
He says.
This is the same.

411
00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:56,080
Oh, I'm trying to think of the
phrase he used if I can find it.

412
00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:59,040
In.
It's he says, yeah, he says this

413
00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:02,040
yeah, Brutus simple men.
He says this is just like Kadash

414
00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:06,200
Barnea Part 2, which is when the
spies were like, we can't cross

415
00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:08,240
into the Jordan and they had to
wonder in the wilderness for

416
00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:09,600
years.
She's like, we're not doing this

417
00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:10,640
again.
We're not going to wonder in the

418
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:12,520
wilderness for 40 more years.
But you're doing the same exact

419
00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:16,080
thing by not wanting to cross.
Into the promised land and so

420
00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:20,280
this kind of like comes back to
the front and Joshua one they

421
00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:22,440
kind of like rehash this out
like you're going to cross and

422
00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,040
everyone agrees.
It's like this is like it's

423
00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:27,080
interesting.
Why so much Texas spin on that?

424
00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:29,920
But it's because this was like
hashed out before.

425
00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:33,880
It's a new leadership and
everyone kind of gets on board

426
00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:35,480
these tribes that Yep, we're
unified.

427
00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:39,040
We'll do this that that's really
one of the the themes You look

428
00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:40,760
at Joshua and you see this
phrase.

429
00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:44,440
All of Israel happens multiple
times in chapters 3 and 4, seven

430
00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:48,880
and eight, Chapter 101623 and 24
where all of Israel together

431
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:51,000
under Joshua's important, you'll
get judges.

432
00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:54,280
It's really more factions with
this person and this part of the

433
00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:57,000
it's not, it's not all of Israel
together and that's a problem.

434
00:20:57,040 --> 00:21:00,680
Judges is a mess.
Judges is a mess, to say the

435
00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:02,040
least.
That's funeral number one.

436
00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:06,880
We'll skip to the back of the
book, chapter 24 if you want to

437
00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:11,160
read verses 29 through 33, and
we'll hit just short 4 verses,

438
00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:14,320
these final three funerals, so
to speak.

439
00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:21,200
It came about after these things
that Joshua the son of Nun, the

440
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:26,560
servant of the Lord, died, being
110 years old, and they buried

441
00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:31,160
him in the territory of his
inheritance in Timnath Sarah,

442
00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:35,440
which is in the Hill Country of
Ephraim on the north of Mount

443
00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:38,920
Gaash.
Israel served the Lord all the

444
00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:42,280
days of Joshua and all the days
of the elders who survived

445
00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:45,760
Joshua and had known all the
deeds of the Lord which he had

446
00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:48,760
done for Israel.
Now they buried the bones of

447
00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:52,840
Joseph, which the sons of Israel
brought up from Egypt at

448
00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:57,440
Shechem, in the at the in the
piece of ground where Jacob had

449
00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:02,600
bought from the sons of Hamor
the father of Shechem, for 100

450
00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:06,240
pieces of money.
And they became the inheritance

451
00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:09,600
of Joseph's sons.
And Eliezar the son of Aaron,

452
00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:15,120
died, and they buried him at
Gibeah of Phineas his son, which

453
00:22:15,120 --> 00:22:17,880
was given him in the Hill
Country of Ephraim.

454
00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:20,000
Then, then it's over.
That's Joshua.

455
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:22,240
That's the end of Joshua.
I'm not much of an author.

456
00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:24,440
If I was, I feel like that's
kind of like a dry wet.

457
00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:26,920
It's like, you know it just like
boom.

458
00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:30,560
People died, they got buried.
Yeah, book's over.

459
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:34,760
And you're like, that's weird.
Most of the time, you know, you

460
00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:36,720
read genealogies or these things
there.

461
00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:39,240
A lot of times there is this
theological significance.

462
00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:42,600
You have to ask yourself, OK, we
started with the death of Moses.

463
00:22:43,120 --> 00:22:45,680
We ended with the death of
Joshua, Eleazar and Joseph.

464
00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:49,920
Is that like random or is there
significance behind it?

465
00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:52,840
And I think we find several
different emphases, like what?

466
00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:57,120
What is, what is the author
trying to impress on us as we

467
00:22:57,120 --> 00:23:02,440
read this book #1 going back to
this being God centered,

468
00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:06,160
Yahweh's promises are good and
true.

469
00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:09,320
And so that's why we talk about
Moses.

470
00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:12,880
Great Prophet Joshua's going to
be on the same plane as Moses.

471
00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:17,600
Joshua dies, Eleazar dies.
The bones of Joseph are buried.

472
00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:20,360
These are one real physical
people and real physical

473
00:23:20,360 --> 00:23:22,680
locations that these are like
definite places probably trying

474
00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:26,480
to drive that home.
More importantly, this is the

475
00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:29,720
land that was, you know, Joseph
was looking forward to.

476
00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:31,480
You know, we probably learned
all these things like, man, I'm

477
00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:35,080
in Egypt.
Their gravestones, in a way,

478
00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:37,240
testify to Yahweh's
faithfulness.

479
00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:40,480
And when you go all the way back
to Joseph, you're really linking

480
00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:43,720
Genesis.
When you're talking about Moses,

481
00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:46,320
you're linking really all the
Pentateuch, Exodus, and onward,

482
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:48,040
the book of Joshua's linking
Joshua.

483
00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:51,840
You're linking 500 to 600 years
of Yahweh's faithfulness.

484
00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:54,920
People come and go, but this
promise is being seen through

485
00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:57,760
these generations.
Probably a big point we're

486
00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:07,600
trying to understand #2 we see
the people's response is there.

487
00:24:08,120 --> 00:24:11,280
What's verse 31 talks about
Israeli response.

488
00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:12,720
Oh yeah.
And there's maybe a little bit

489
00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:15,080
we can read into the text.
Here, yes, as Israel served the

490
00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:18,480
Lord all the days of Joshua and
all the days of the elders who

491
00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:22,240
served Joshua and had known all
the deeds of the Lord which he

492
00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:24,560
had done for Israel.
I said this word, I shouldn't

493
00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:26,360
have said we should read into
the text 'cause you shouldn't

494
00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:28,840
read in the text.
But when you read that, there is

495
00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:32,040
like a positive and a negative
kind of aspect subtly.

496
00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:36,120
The negative it's implied that
they served while Joshua and the

497
00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:42,040
kind of his close leadership
were alive, but when that, you

498
00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:45,400
know, group of folks died.
Seems past tense.

499
00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:48,360
Yeah, it fell off.
And so if you're if you're maybe

500
00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:51,600
in Israel, maybe the time of the
judges, you're reading this,

501
00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:55,640
you're saying, OK, Moses and
Aaron Penteuch served Yahweh,

502
00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:58,280
Eleazar and Joshua linked
together served Yahweh.

503
00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:02,120
There's like a new generation.
How are the people all of how is

504
00:25:02,120 --> 00:25:04,280
Israel responding?
And you look around and probably

505
00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:09,000
like man not responding well,
which which leads probably to

506
00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:13,280
the third emphasis is that
Yahweh's victory, a lot of

507
00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:15,360
victory has been accomplished in
Joshua by the time we get to the

508
00:25:15,360 --> 00:25:19,280
end, but not not complete.
Just like in Genesis, Joseph

509
00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:20,760
dies, a lot of good things have
happened.

510
00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:24,120
Israel has been like saved all
the brothers kind of reunited.

511
00:25:24,120 --> 00:25:29,160
The nation doesn't starve from
famine, but kind of ends and

512
00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:31,480
things aren't totally resolved.
Deuteronomy, when Moses dies,

513
00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:32,920
you read very similar things
like.

514
00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:35,480
So this kind of predicts you
guys aren't going to do well,

515
00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:37,560
like things are going to go bad.
I'm calling.

516
00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:39,200
This.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

517
00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:41,520
Is that Deuteronomy 31 where
he's like, kind?

518
00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:42,760
Of calm him out and it's like
not good.

519
00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:44,360
And then Joshua kind of the same
thing.

520
00:25:44,360 --> 00:25:46,800
Is that a coincidence?
It's kind of like these these

521
00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:48,800
are repeated.
We should take something away

522
00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:52,960
from that in the same way we in
a similar way to Israel, we look

523
00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:56,200
lot's been victorious and
accomplished, but they're still

524
00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:59,840
like it's still incomplete where
there is like, oh man, we we

525
00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:02,680
long and look forward to that
day.

526
00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:05,080
And I think the author is
probably wrapping all this up in

527
00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:06,920
there through those different
funerals.

528
00:26:07,120 --> 00:26:10,720
No, I, I think that's really
good and it's, we talked about

529
00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:13,680
there was another book, I don't
think it was Joshua, Joshua, but

530
00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:16,520
we kind of talked about the,
it's just the emphasis of the

531
00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:18,880
already, but not yet.
Ezra, Nehemiah.

532
00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:22,240
Kind of Ezra, Nehemiah.
It's like we were like, you

533
00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:24,880
think, all right, we finally
learned our lesson.

534
00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:26,000
Nope.
And.

535
00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:28,920
It is crazy, all of the stories
and they're all like similar,

536
00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:32,720
but they're different.
It's like, it's like, I think

537
00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:34,360
about this a lot.
Like I do not like reading

538
00:26:34,360 --> 00:26:38,240
fiction books and like an author
like will say something and

539
00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:40,120
bring it back up at the end.
And there's these through lines.

540
00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:43,320
I really love seeing that in
scripture because I'm like, oh,

541
00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:45,520
any author could write it, but
it is, it is pretty like

542
00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:49,360
masterful in scripture and see
how it represents the human

543
00:26:49,360 --> 00:26:53,120
condition so well, how it is
like totally relatable, but

544
00:26:53,120 --> 00:26:56,400
totally miraculous And and just
you see these cycles, but

545
00:26:56,400 --> 00:26:57,640
they're different, but they're
the same.

546
00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:01,880
It's like pretty amazing.
So anyway, good way.

547
00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:06,320
I think last episode, really big
picture overview kind of

548
00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:09,000
narrowing down a little bit
chapter 1 and in chapter 24 kind

549
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:11,240
of narrowing that lens a little
bit.

550
00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:17,040
Next episode would like to look
more about preparing to to take

551
00:27:17,360 --> 00:27:21,040
though, like maybe a teaser
question is like we read through

552
00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:23,160
chapter one.
It looks like they're about to

553
00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:25,120
take the land.
Like it's like, hey, get ready,

554
00:27:25,120 --> 00:27:26,480
prepare yourselves.
It's gonna go.

555
00:27:27,360 --> 00:27:31,920
We read in chapter 3, we cross
the Jordan chapter 2.

556
00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:35,480
It's kind of weird, like you can
almost take chapter 2 out and

557
00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:39,240
one to three would make sense.
Also another like literary

558
00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:41,320
thing, like why is that in
there?

559
00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:44,960
That's kind of weird, right?
Like, but it's this famous Rahab

560
00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:48,160
story that really probably
should be few chapters later

561
00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:50,640
with Jericho, but it's like not
pigeon holed here.

562
00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:53,440
It's there on purpose and it
happens probably, but it's like

563
00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:55,200
it stands out.
And I think that's a good when

564
00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:57,880
you see something that stands
out, you're like, why is it put

565
00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:00,240
here?
What are we supposed to take

566
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:02,000
away from other than that
historical account?

567
00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:06,920
So anyway, anything else you
want to add about people dying

568
00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:09,520
in Joshua?
Well, not about people dying in

569
00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:13,720
Joshua, but I do wonder, did any
other bones other than Joseph's

570
00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:16,040
get brought out a land of
Goshen?

571
00:28:16,360 --> 00:28:19,040
Clearly not everyone's bones and
it's just logistically

572
00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:19,840
impossible.
But.

573
00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:23,920
Would anyone that be like, hey,
just like Joseph man, don't let

574
00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:24,760
me stay here.
I don't.

575
00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:27,160
Know because it's it was it's
crazy you read this and like

576
00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:29,560
Jacob's like adamant.
Do you know these people are

577
00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:34,360
like, when I die, I cannot die
here, You know, it's like a very

578
00:28:34,360 --> 00:28:36,680
big deal.
And maybe some of that leans

579
00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:40,000
into this play thrower
nepheline, like the cosmic

580
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:41,480
geography and stuff too, you
know what I mean?

581
00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:44,720
So there's a lot of stuff at
play.

582
00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:49,000
I'm excited as we kind of
continue in on this Joshua

583
00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:51,600
study.
That's what I got.

584
00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:55,960
That's our take.
