• 00:04 WITH DR. JEFFREY SEIF AND SANDRA LEVITT
• 00:09 SHE SHALL BE CALLED WOMAN.
• 00:13 I CAME FORTH FROM A MAN...
• 00:14 BUT I FOUND FAVOR WITH HIM...
• 00:16 AND TRUE SUCCESS IS NOT MEASURED IN WEALTH AND POWER BUT IN THE ESTATE IN ONE'S HEART...
• 00:22 I'VE NEVER BEEN HAPPIER AND MORE FULFILLED...
• 00:25 I RAISED HIM UP STRICTLY IN THE FAITH AND THE LAW AND THE PROPHETS...
• 00:30 AND NOW I WANT TO GIVE SOMETHING BACK...
• 00:32 I BELIEVE ELOHIM MEANT IT TO BE THIS WAY...
• 00:34 SHE'S STILL A CORNERSTONE OF WISDOM TO THE FAMILY...
• 00:37 BUT YOU ARE ALWAYS IN MY HEART...
• 00:51 HE TOLD ME HE LOVED ME.
• 00:54 YET 3 TIMES LIES POURED FROM HIS LIPS.
• 00:57 I LOOKED LIKE A FOOL BEFORE MY PEOPLE.
• 01:01 BUT FINALLY AFTER NAGGING THE BRUTE NIGHT AND DAY
• 01:06 SAMSON TOLD ME THE SECRET TO HIS GREAT STRENGTH.
• 01:11 DON'T THINK EVIL OF ME.
• 01:16 I CAN'T DENY I'M PROFITING FROM THIS BUSINESS VENTURE
• 01:19 AND I DO CARE ABOUT SAMSON
• 01:22 ALTHOUGH LOVE IS PRETTY STRONG WORD.
• 01:26 WE BOTH HAVE NEEDS AND WE BOTH USED EACH OTHER FOR OUR NEEDS.
• 01:32 IN THE END I'M PROBABLY SAVING HIS LIFE.
• 01:36 THE PHILISTINES WOULD EVENTUALLY KILL HIM IN BATTLE
• 01:39 BUT NOW THEY'LL PROBABLY LOCK HIM AWAY SAFELY IN PRISON
• 01:43 AND PEACE CAN FINALLY REIGN BETWEEN OUR 2 PEOPLES,
• 01:47 THE PHILISTINES AND THE ISRAELITES.
• 01:52 A HEARTY SHALOM TO ALL OF YOU.
• 01:53 JEFFREY SEIF WITH MY FRIEND SANDRA LEVITT.
• 01:55 SHALOM.
• 01:57 WELCOME BACK TO THE WOMEN'S SERIES.
• 01:58 JEFF WHO ARE WE TAKING ABOUT TODAY?
• 02:00 WELL IT'S A WORLD GONE BAD ACTUALLY. >>BAD, YEAH
• 02:02 DELILAH INVOKES IMAGES OF GIRLS GONE WILD IN THE BIBLICAL STORY
• 02:08 AND IN CERTAIN RESPECTS THIS IS EVERY PARENTS NIGHTMARE TO HAVE A GIRL GO BAD LIKE THIS.
• 02:13 BUT IT IS WHAT IT IS.
• 02:15 AND WE'VE JUST LOOKED AT THE PROVERBS 31 WOMAN,
• 02:17 AND WHAT WONDERFUL ATTRIBUTES THAT SHE HAS AND PUT ON A PEDESTAL.
• 02:21 AND ALL OF A SUDDEN WE'RE SEEING DELILAH
• 02:23 WHO IS JUST THIS HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE WOMAN
• 02:26 THAT DID NOTHING ACCEPT TO FURTHER HERSELF
• 02:30 AND JUST AAGH..... NIGHTMARE,
• 02:32 YOU'RE RIGHT ITS EVERY PARENTS NIGHTMARE.
• 02:34 SO WE'RE LOOKING AT AN 8 PART SERIES.
• 02:37 NOW WE'RE LOOKING AT ONE THAT GOT AWAY.
• 02:38 A LESSON TO LEARN ABOUT HOW NOT TO BE IN THE WORLD
• 02:41 AS WE CONTINUE ON WITH OUR STORY OF WOMEN IN THE WORD.
• 02:47 JUST FINISHED RAINING IN THE GAZA.
• 02:51 GAZA'S RIGHT OFF THE MEDITERRANEAN SEA AND WE DO GET DOWNPOURS EVERY NOW AND AGAIN
• 02:56 AND WITH THE BREAK IN THE RAIN WE'RE GETTING SOME WORK DONE.
• 02:59 THIS YOUNG LADY'S PUTTING OUT THE WASH,
• 03:02 THIS FELLOW'S TAKING CARE OF THE ROOF.
• 03:05 HE'D DO WELL TO BE CAREFUL.
• 03:06 PEOPLE CAN SLIDE DOWN ON WET STONE.
• 03:09 EVERYBODY'S WORKING AND THAT'S GOOD.
• 03:11 WELL SORTA.
• 03:12 THIS WOMAN WAS WORKING HERE.
• 03:14 SHE WAS APPLYING THE WORLD'S OLDEST TRADE.
• 03:17 REMINDS ME OF A STORY BACK IN JUDGES CHAPTER 16.
• 03:22 IN THE FIRST VERSE WERE TOLD...
• 03:24 (Speaking Hebrew)
• 03:32 AND THERE WE'RE TOLD...
• 03:34 (Speaking Hebrew)
• 03:41 SAMSON'S NOT THE ONLY PERSON IN THE WORLD THAT EVER GOT IN TROUBLE WITH THE SIGHT OF A WOMAN.
• 03:47 SEEMS THAT HE HAD A PARTICULAR WEAKNESS, HOWEVER.
• 03:51 WE'RE TOLD HERE RIGHT AFTERWARDS
• 03:53 THAT SHE WAS IN HEBREW "Zonah",
• 03:56 THAT SHE WAS A PROSTITUTE.
• 03:59 AFTER NOTING THAT WE'RE TOLD...
• 04:01 (Speaking Hebrew)
• 04:07 AND THE REST IS HISTORY.
• 04:08 WELL THAT'S HIS STORY.
• 04:10 IN SO MANY WAYS ON SO MANY DAYS THAT'S THE STORY OF SO MANY OTHERS.
• 04:16 MEN WHO WRECK THEMSELVES BY BEING BESTED BY THE DARKER SIDE OF THEIR OWN NATURES,
• 04:22 BY THEIR INABILITY TO GET THEIR IMPULSES BRIDLED.
• 04:27 BETTER TO GET A BRIDE THEN TEND TO THIS BUSINESS.
• 04:29 SAMSON, HOWEVER, HAD A DIFFERENT MIND ON THE MATTER.
• 04:32 WE'RE TOLD IN THE BEGINNING OF THE CHAPTER THAT HE'S IN GAZA.
• 04:35 THEN WE'RE TOLD LATER ON HE'S SOMEWHERE ELSE IN A VALLEY
• 04:40 AND HIS EYES ALIGHT UPON ANOTHER WOMAN, A PHILISTINE, A MEMBER OF THE PELISHTIM.
• 04:47 PHILISTINES CAME AND SETTLED THE AREA, THEY HUGGED THE COASTAL PLAIN.
• 04:51 AND THERE WAS A WOMAN THAT STARTED HUGGING SAMSON.
• 04:55 THE REST AS I NOTED IS HISTORY.
• 04:58 DID HE FALL IN LOVE WITH HER?
• 05:00 EH..WAS IS THIS THING FALLING IN LOVE?
• 05:03 YOU CAN FALL DOWN STEPS, YOU CAN FALL DOWN A LADDER.
• 05:05 SEEMS TO ME THAT LOVE IS BEST CONSTRUED AS A DECISION.
• 05:09 SOMEONE OPTS TO MAKE A WOMAN THE OBJECT OF HIS AFFECTION.
• 05:15 A WOMAN OPTS TO MAKE A MAN THE OBJECT OF THEIR AFFECTION.
• 05:20 BETTER IT IS THAT THERE BE NO SEXUAL CONTACT BEFORE A CONTRACT THAT BINDS THEM TOGETHER,
• 05:26 TAKES CARE OF THEM INTO THE FUTURE AS WELL AS THE FRUITS OF THE UNION.
• 05:30 WELL SAMSON HAS NO TIME TO BE BOTHERED BY TALK LIKE THAT DOES HE?COURSE NOT.
• 05:34 HE HIMSELF WANTS IT, HE WANTS IT NOW.
• 05:36 WHAT HAPPENS, HOWEVER, HE THINKS LIKE A LITTLE FLY...ZZZZZ.
• 05:41 HE THINKS HE LANDED ON THAT FLOWER, THAT HE WAS GOING TO GET A MEAL.
• 05:46 HE LOOKED AT HER AND SAID, "THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT. I WANT TO GET TO KNOW HER."
• 05:49 HE THOUGHT HE WAS GOING TO GET A MEAL.
• 05:50 WHAT HAPPENED IS HE WOUND UP BECOMING A MEAL IN THE PROCESS.
• 05:55 IT ALL CLOSED UP AROUND HIM.
• 05:57 SHE WAS DOING THE BIDDING OF MEN THAT WERE TOO COWARD TO TAKE CARE OF SAMSON CONVENTIONALLY.
• 06:04 YOU KNOW THE STORY THAT SAMSON WAS A BIG MAN,
• 06:08 HE WAS A STRONG MAN AND THE PELISHTIM WERE UNABLE TO GET THE BETTER OF HIM.
• 06:12 SO IF IT DOESN'T WORK CONVENTIONALLY LET'S LOOK FOR PLAN B.
• 06:17 PARENTHETICALLY IT REMINDS ME OF WHAT HAPPENS AROUND HERE ON TOO MANY WAYS AND TOO MANY DAYS.
• 06:24 WHAT DO I MEAN BY THAT?
• 06:26 HERE I AM STANDING IN ISRAEL, FORCES ROUND ABOUT SAY,
• 06:29 "WELL WE'VE TRIED TO FIGHT THESE ISRAELIS CONVENTIONALLY."
• 06:32 "RIFLES, TANKS, AIRPLANES, WE DON'T DO SO GOOD THIS WAY."
• 06:37 "LET'S GO FOR PLAN B."
• 06:39 "LET'S DO TERRORISTS, LET'S GO AFTER CIVILIANS AND LET'S HIDE BEHIND WOMEN AND CHILDREN"
• 06:44 "AND LET'S GET THE WORLD ALL RILED UP."
• 06:47 I DON'T WANT TO GET TOO RILED UP.
• 06:49 THIS ISN'T A POLITICAL CONVERSATION.
• 06:51 IT'S A STORY HERE, HOWEVER,
• 06:53 ABOUT HOW THE PHILISTINES USE SEXUAL APPETITE TO BRING A MAN DOWN.
• 06:59 THEY'RE WHITTLING HIM DOWN TIME AND TIME AGAIN.
• 07:03 "WHAT'S THE SECRET TO YOUR STRENGTH?"
• 07:05 THE SECRET TO HIS STRENGTH IS HIS RELATIONSHIP TO HIS GOD.
• 07:12 THE REASON WHY I SAY THAT IS FINALLY AFTER A PERIOD OF WEARING HIM DOWN OVER TIME
• 07:16 HE SAYS TO HER,
• 07:18 (Speaking Hebrew)
• 07:29 MY FRIENDS THERE'S A HEDGE OF PROTECTION WALKING UNDER GOD'S COVERING IN A RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM.
• 07:37 SAMSON LOST THAT COVERING, HE LOST THAT HAIR AND THAT WAS THE BEGINNING OF THE END FOR HIM.
• 07:41 AND SO IT IS WHEN INDIVIDUALS WALK OUTSIDE OF GOD'S COVENANT COVERING IT CAN BE THE END FOR THEM AS WELL.
• 07:47 WE'RE GOING TO CONTINUE ON HERE AND LOOK AT WOMEN IN GENERAL
• 07:49 AND LOOK AT ISSUES RELATED TO SEXUALITY IN PARTICULAR.

• 08:23 PLEASE CONTRACT US FOR MORE INFORMATION.
• 08:30 LIFE HAS BEEN DESCRIBED AS A JOURNEY.
• 08:31 CHRISTIAN MINISTERS LIKE TALKING ABOUT TAKING THAT "STEP OF FAITH."
• 08:37 JUDAISM TALKS ABOUT "Halachah",
• 08:40 A RELIGIOUS WAY.
• 08:41 COMES FROM A HEBREW VERB
• 08:43 "Holech" WHICH MEANS TO "WALK".
• 08:45 HEY, I'M A DAD WITH TEENAGE SONS TRYING TO TEACH MY BOYS HOW TO WALK.
• 08:51 YOU KNOW WHAT I TELL THEM?
• 08:52 TOLD MY SON JACOB AT 19, I SAID, "I CAN SPEND 19 YEARS TRYING TO RAISE YOU RIGHT"
• 08:58 "AND I KNOW THAT THE WRONG GIRL COULD UNDO THAT IN ABOUT 19 SECONDS."
• 09:03 DOESN'T TAKE THAT MUCH FOR SOMEONE TO GET DISTRACTED.
• 09:06 IN FACT THAT'S WHY IN PROVERBS, SOLOMON, AND TALK ABOUT GETTING DISTRACTED,
• 09:13 (Speaking Hebrew)
• 09:16 SOLOMON KNOWN FOR HIS "Chacham", HIS "SMARTS".
• 09:19 ITS AMAZING HOW SOMEONE SO SMART CAN BE SO STUPID.
• 09:24 THIS IS A MAN THAT MADE SHIPWRECK OF A LIFE AND HE CAN TALK ABOUT IT.
• 09:29 IN THE 7TH CHAPTER HE GIVES VOICE TO HOW THE MALES OF THE SPECIES CAN GET LED AWAY.
• 09:36 HE NOTES HERE IN CHAPTER 7, VERSE 6,
• 09:41 THAT THERE WAS SOMEONE WHOM
• 09:43 HE PERCEIVED FROM THE WINDOW OF A HOUSE.
• 09:46 A YOUNG MAN, VERSE 7,
• 09:47 SOMEONE DEVOID OF UNDERSTANDING
• 09:49 WHOSE BECKONED IN BY A LOOSE WOMAN.
• 09:53 AND LET ME JUST SAY THAT WHEN I THINK OF THIS PROBLEM,
• 09:57 IT'S A PROBLEM WITH THE MALES OF THE SPECIES,
• 10:00 IT'S A PROBLEM WITH THE FEMALES OF THE SPECIES.
• 10:03 PARTICULARLY IN THE MODERN WORLD WHERE WE ARE SO OVERLY SEXUALIZED.
• 10:08 THE STIMULATION IS EVERYWHERE, THE IMAGES, THE VISION, IT JUST POUNDS INDIVIDUALS.
• 10:14 IN THE BIBLICAL SENSE IN PROVERBS WE'RE TOLD THAT WISDOM IS CRYING ALOUD IN THE STREET
• 10:21 BECKONING INDIVIDUALS TO HEAR WHAT BIBLICAL WISDOM HAS TO SAY.
• 10:25 AND WHAT ARE WE TOLD HERE?
• 10:27 WE'RE WARNED ABOUT THE WRONG KIND OF PERSON, THE WRONG KIND OF RELATIONSHIP.
• 10:33 AND HERE IN THIS STORY, THE 7TH CHAPTER
• 10:36 A YOUNG MAN IS BECKONED IN BY A WOMAN WHO SAYS IN VERSE 18..
• 10:46 OF COURSE NO ONE'S TAKING IN A FILL OF LOVE UNTIL THE MORNING.
• 10:49 THEY'RE TAKING IN THEIR FILL OF LUST UNTIL THE MORNING.
• 10:53 I KNOW INDIVIDUALS THAT HAVE HAD A LOT OF BEDS BUT HAVEN'T HAD A LOT OF REST.
• 10:57 THE SOUL WOULD FIND REST IF THEY HAD A GOOD RELATIONSHIP
• 11:00 AND NOT JUST ONE WHERE THEY CAN SATISFY THESE MUTUAL NEEDS AND INTERESTS ON A TEMPORARY BASIS.
• 11:06 WE'RE TOLD HERE OF A WARNING IN VERSE 23, HERE THE TEXT SAYS,
• 11:11 "THAT MAN DOES NOT KNOW THAT THAT AFFAIR IS GOING TO COST HIM HIS LIFE."
• 11:17 "AND THAT WOMAN DOESN'T KNOW THAT IF SHE WANTS TO PLAY THAT HAND"
• 11:21 "AND EXERT THAT KIND OF LEVERAGE THAT SHE IS HURTING HERSELF IN THE PROCESS."
• 11:25 BOTH PEOPLE THINK THAT THEY'RE GETTING SOMETHING OUT OF IT IN THE BIBLICAL TEXT.
• 11:28 BOTH PEOPLE ARE COMING TO RUIN.
• 11:30 AND THERE'S A WARNING HERE THAT'S GIVEN IN THE TEXT AND I WANT TO EXTEND IT TO YOU.
• 11:43 OR IF IT'S A WOMAN WHOSE BEING ENTICED TO HIS WAYS.
• 11:45 DON'T BE THIS WAY.
• 11:48 AT THE END OF THE DAY A WOMAN THAT NEEDS TO LOWER HERSELF LIKE THIS
• 11:51 CHEAPENS HERSELF IN ORDER TO GET SOME KIND OF ATTENTION AND AFFECTION.
• 11:55 IT DOESN'T NEED TO BE THAT WAY.
• 11:57 BETTER TO BE MODEST AND DISCREET AND LET LOVE COME AT ITS OWN TIME RATHER THAN HURRY THE PROCESS.
• 12:02 HE SAYS HERE "DON'T TURN ASIDE TO THIS WAY."
• 12:06 WE'RE TOLD IN VERSE 26 THAT SHE, THIS LICENTIOUS PERSON HAS WOUNDED MANY.
• 12:12 AND WE'RE TOLD IN VERSE 27
• 12:22 LETS NOT BE A CASUALTY IN THIS WAR AND LETS NOT GIVE OURSELVES OVER TO CHEAP THRILLS AND DEFIANT BEHAVIOR.
• 12:28 WE ALL HAVE VARIOUS NEEDS AND INTERESTS.
• 12:30 BETTER TO WALK WITH GOD IT SEEMS TO ME
• 12:32 AND LET HIM BRING THE RIGHT KIND OF RELATIONSHIP TO BEAR
• 12:35 RATHER THAN SPEED UP THE PROCESS AND HURT OUR SELF IN THE PROCESS.
• 12:39 I LIKE JEFF'S TEACHING.
• 12:41 I LOVE THE EXAMPLE OF THE PHILISTINES HUGGING THE COAST
• 12:45 AND OF COURSE DELILAH HUGGING AND TAKING OVER SAMSON.
• 12:49 IT REMINDS ME IN 1 CORINTHIANS CHAPTER 15, VERSE 33.
• 12:52 EVIL CORRUPTS GOOD HABITS AND GOOD COMPANY.
• 12:56 THIS IS WHAT WE NEED TO BE AWARE OF JEFF.
• 12:58 EVIL DOES CORRUPT.
• 13:01 BUT ON WHAT DONKEY DO WE WANT TO PIN THE TAIL?
• 13:04 CERTAINLY DELILAH'S A TARGET.
• 13:07 SHE'S THE BEGINNING OF THE TARGET.
• 13:08 BUT SHE'S JUST PUTTY IN THE HANDS OF MALES
• 13:11 THAT ARE USING HER AS A UTILITY TO TAKE OUT SAMSON.
• 13:15 AND KEEP GOING.
• 13:16 AND I SEE OTHER EXAMPLES IN THIS BIBLICAL TEXT
• 13:18 BEFORE THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL MAKE THEIR ENTRANCE INTO CANAAN PROPER
• 13:24 IN THE DAYS OF MOSES.
• 13:25 WAS A 24,000 MOABITE, MIDIANITE WOMEN SEDUCE, ENTICE,
• 13:31 BUT THEY'RE SENT THERE BY THERE BY THEIR FATHERS.
• 13:33 BUT TAKE IT TO THE VERY, VERY END.
• 13:36 WHAT IS REALLY THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL?
• 13:39 ...IS SATAN.
• 13:41 YES, AND IT SEEMS TO ME THAT THERE IS A PARTICULAR CHINK IN THE ARMOR OF THE MALES OF SPECIES
• 13:46 THAT THERE IS A WAY THAT WE CAN BE BROUGHT DOWN WITH SEXUAL TEMPTATION IN WAYS THAT WE WON'T FALL OTHER WAYS.
• 13:55 I'M REMINDED, MEN ARE VISUAL.
• 13:57 MEN ARE VISUAL CREATURES, WOMEN ARE NOT VISUAL, THEY'RE MORE "TOUCHY, FEELY" KIND OF THING.
• 14:02 GOD USES EVERYTHING.
• 14:04 SO DOES DEVIL.
• 14:05 THE DEVIL'S NOT STUPID.
• 14:07 HE KNOWS THIS IS A SPIRITUAL WAR AND HE KNOWS.
• 14:10 IT REMINDS ME FRANKLY, EVE AND ADAM ARE THERE IN THEIR BIRTHDAY SUITS,
• 14:14 HE'LL DO WHATEVER SHE TELLS HIM.
• 14:16 "HERE, EAT."
• 14:18 THAT'LL PROBABLY GET EDITED OUT.
• 14:19 THAT'S PROBABLY A GOOD THING.
• 14:21 BUT THE POINT IS THAT THE MALES OF THE SPECIES CAN BE MANEUVERED ABOUT.
• 14:25 WOMEN KNOW THAT.
• 14:26 THEY WANT TO GET A MALE.
• 14:28 THEY USE SEXUALITY AS LEVERAGE.
• 14:30 IT CAN BE A PROBLEM.
• 14:33 WE NEED TO CONTROL OURSELVES.
• 14:35 BUT WE ALSO NEED TO WATCH FOR EVIL.
• 14:37 WHY ARE WE SURPRISED AT THE UNBELIEVER?
• 14:39 THE UNBELIEVER ALWAYS BEHAVES LIKE AN UNBELIEVER.
• 14:42 WE ARE BELIEVERS AND WE BELIEVE IN THE WORD, WE BELIEVE IN DOING RIGHT.
• 14:46 THE UNBELIEVER - NOT EVEN ON THE SAME PAGE AS WE ARE.
• 14:50 WHAT ABOUT THE BELIEVER, THE BELIEVING WOMAN?
• 14:52 SHE HAS GOALS, SHE WANTS SOMETHING USING ASSETS
• 14:56 IN ORDER TO GET SECURITY IN A MALE, THE ATTENTION OF A MALE.
• 15:00 THIS STUFF CAN GO BAD EVEN FOR PEOPLE THAT PROFESS FAITH,
• 15:03 CORRECT?
• 15:04 YES AND NO.
• 15:06 I THINK YOU CAN GET OFF TRACK BUT I THINK GOD ALWAYS BRINGS US BACK TO THE FOLD.
• 15:09 I THINK HE ALWAYS PUTS US BACK ON TRACK.
• 15:11 WELL, HIS MERCIES ARE NEW EVERY MORNING. >>ABSOLUTELY
• 15:13 AND THAT'S AMPLY DEMONSTRATED IN THE SAMSON STORY,
• 15:15 DIFFICULTIES NOT WITHSTANDING.
• 15:17 I DON'T WANT TO SAY THERE'S A HAPPY ENDING.
• 15:19 BUT HOW DO YOU PUT IT?
• 15:21 WELL, SAMSON KILLED MORE WHEN HE PULLED THE PILLARS DOWN THEN IN HIS WHOLE CAREER.
• 15:24 SO GOD USED THAT TO GET HIS ENEMIES.
• 15:28 SO I LOVE THAT.
• 15:29 WE INTERVIEWED RUTH MATAR.
• 15:31 SHE IS "WOMEN IN GREEN"
• 15:33 AND JUST HAD A WONDERFUL INSIGHT ABOUT THE POLITICS, THE EVIL THAT'S GOING ON IN ISRAEL TODAY.
• 15:40 BACK AFTER THIS.
• 15:48 WE WERE TALKING ABOUT WOMEN IN THE BIBLE.
• 15:50 WHO IS YOUR FAVORITE WOMAN, WHY,
• 15:52 WHAT ENCOURAGEMENT DOES SHE GIVE YOU?
• 15:54 WHERE DO YOU SEE THE BIBLE TODAY?
• 15:57 I THINK THERE IS AMAZING SIMILARITY BETWEEN WHAT IS HAPPENING NOW AND WHAT YOU FIND IN THE BIBLE.
• 16:09 IT ALWAYS, WILL NEVER, NEVER CEASES TO AMAZE ME.
• 16:14 AND MY FAVORITE ONE I THINK IS VORAH. ABSOLUTELY
• 16:19 DEBORAH, SHE WAS A HERO.
• 16:22 YES AND NOT ONLY WAS SHE A HEROINE, SHE WAS A JUDGE.
• 16:27 SHE WAS A VERY SMART WOMEN.
• 16:29 SHE WAS A PROPHETESS AND VERY HIGHLY THOUGHT OF. >>RIGHT
• 16:35 AND SHE DID SOMETHING WHICH THE MEN AT THE TIME DID NOT DO.
• 16:42 AND THAT WAS STAY.
• 16:44 THEY WERE BEING ATTACKED BY THE CANAANITES, THE JEWS, THE JEWISH TRIBES AT THE TIME.
• 16:49 AND SIMILAR AGAIN OF NOT REALLY THE POWERS THAT BE AT THE TIME
• 16:58 DID NOT STAND UP TO THEM AND SHE RALLIED THE PEOPLE.
• 17:03 SHE DID.SHE RALLIED THE PEOPLE.
• 17:05 NOW, SHE WAS BEFORE GIDEON.
• 17:06 I READ ABOUT HER BEFORE GIDEON. >>YES, RIGHT.
• 17:08 AND I THINK WHAT GIDEON DID...
• 17:10 AND SHE DID ALMOST THE SAME THING, GOT THE PEOPLE GOING, HAD THEM FIGHT FOR THEIR LAND.
• 17:17 APPOINTED A GENERAL, BARAK
• 17:19 RIGHT
• 17:20 AND ALSO IT WASN'T SMOOTH GOING FOR HER.
• 17:25 SHE WAS VERY DISAPPOINTED THAT NOT ALL 12 TRIBES JOINED IN.
• 17:32 SO YOU SEE THE SIMILARITY.
• 17:34 YOU THINK OH THERE SHE WAS
• 17:36 AND SHE JUST RALLIED THE TROOPS AND THEY ALL CAME RUNNING.
• 17:40 BUT DOES THAT ENCOURAGE YOU?
• 17:42 DOES THAT ENCOURAGE YOU TO SPEAK AND SAY, "LET ME BE STRONG FOR ISRAEL, LET ME SUPPORT ISRAEL"?
• 17:47 DOES THAT HELP YOU AS YOU WALK THE WAY THAT YOU DO NOW?
• 17:51 OH, ABSOLUTELY, ABSOLUTELY.
• 17:52 YOU KNOW TO SAY, "WELL, OH ITS SO HOPELESS", WHATEVER,
• 17:57 THEN YOU READ ABOUT VORAH AND IT WAS MORE THAN HOPELESS THERE
• 18:04 AND SHE JUST UP AND DID IT.
• 18:08 SO WHERE DO YOU SEE POLITICS NOW?
• 18:10 WHERE TO YOU SEE THE GOVERNMENT GOING, WHERE DO YOU SEE - I HEAR ASK IS NETANYAHU COMING BACK?
• 18:15 WHERE DO YOU SEE POLITICS GOING NOW?
• 18:18 I WAS NOT GOING TO SPEAK ABOUT MR. OLMERT,
• 18:21 BUT I CAN SPEAK ABOUT IT IN THIS WAY.
• 18:25 I JUST DISCOVERED THAT THERE WAS AN ARTICLE THAT HE WROTE
• 18:30 BOASTING ABOUT HOW HE HAD TO CONVINCE ARIEL SHARON
• 18:36 TO DISENGAGE FROM GAZA AND FROM SAMARIA.
• 18:41 I THINK VERY FEW PEOPLE KNOW THAT.
• 18:45 RIGHT, I THINK WE WERE ALL A LITTLE DISAPPOINTED IN THE DISENGAGEMENT.
• 18:49 I DON'T THINK ITS SOMETHING THAT WE ALL WANTED TO DO.
• 18:52 I THINK ITS SOMETHING THAT POLITICIANS...
• 18:55 DECISIONS THAT THEY HAD TO MAKE AND THAT'S WHAT WE HAVE TO LIVE WITH.
• 18:58 YOU KNOW WHAT I THINK ABOUT?
• 19:00 I THINK WE SHOULD BE MORE THAN A LITTLE DISAPPOINTED AS RELIGIOUS PEOPLE
• 19:05 BECAUSE TALKING ABOUT THE ROAD MAP
• 19:07 AND CARVING OUT AN ARAB STATE
• 19:11 OUT OF THE LAND THAT WAS PROMISED TO US BY THE LORD.
• 19:16 I THINK ITS MORE THAN DISAPPOINTMENT TO DO THAT FOR A JEWISH GOVERNMENT
• 19:21 TO HAVE PULLED THESE PEOPLE OUT FROM THEIR HOME, ETC.
• 19:28 IT WAS RIGHT AGAINST GOD'S WORD. >>I AGREE.
• 19:31 ZOLA USED TO SAY TO ME, "WHEN GOD RAISES UP A PEOPLE, THE DEVIL RAISES ONE UP ALSO."
• 19:36 I THINK WE'RE IN A SPIRITUAL WAR ALSO FOR OUR LIVES. >>OH, ABSOLUTELY.
• 19:40 FOR OUR LIVES.
• 19:41 ABSOLUTELY, THIS IS DEFINITELY A SPIRITUAL WAR.
• 19:47 RIGHT
• 19:48 AND I THINK WHAT IS DIFFICULT TO UNDERSTAND
• 19:53 IS THAT THE WHOLE WESTERN WORLD DOESN'T UNDERSTAND THAT THIS IS A SPIRITUAL WAR.
• 20:01 AND YOU KNOW, IN THIS LATEST ARTICLE THAT I WROTE,
• 20:05 I REMEMBERED ABOUT ERIC HOFFER..
• 20:09 DO YOU REMEMBER ERIC HOFFER THE LONGSHOREMAN MAN? >>YES, I DO.
• 20:11 AND I REMEMBERED,
• 20:13 AND AT MY AGE I START TO FORGET THINGS.
• 20:16 (Sandra laughing) SO DO I.
• 20:19 BUT I DO REMEMBER THE LAST SENTENCE.
• 20:21 THE LAST SENTENCE OF HIS ARTICLE WAS,
• 20:24 "I HAVE AN UNCOMFORTABLE FEELING"
• 20:27 "THAT AS IT GOES WITH ISRAEL SO IT GO WITH US." >>ABSOLUTELY. SO GOES AMERICA.
• 20:35 AND I THINK ITS VERY TRUE.
• 20:36 ITS WHAT WE'VE ALWAYS SAID. >>VERY TRUE.
• 20:38 IT'S A DEMOCRACY IN THE MIDDLE EAST.
• 20:40 ISRAEL'S A DEMOCRACY IN THE MIDDLE EAST.
• 20:42 AMERICA'S ANOTHER DEMOCRACY.
• 20:44 IF ISRAEL FALLS THERE'S NO REASON THAT AMERICA WOULDN'T FALL EITHER. >>YEAH
• 20:48 AND SO WE HAVE TO BE VERY STRONG, VERY VIGILANT ON WHAT WE DO IN ISRAEL.
• 20:52 ABSOLUTELY
• 20:53 AND I THANK YOU FOR STAYING STRONG WITH ISRAEL.
• 20:55 RUTH TALKED ABOUT EVIL IN THE WORLD AND LETS REMEMBER THAT EVIL IS NOT GENDER SPECIFIC.
• 21:01 THERE ARE WAYS THAT EVIL UNFOLDS
• 21:02 THROUGH THE FEMALES OF THE SPECIES
• 21:04 AND THE MALES OF THE SPECIES.
• 21:05 IT'S A REALITY, ITS THERE.
• 21:07 IT IS THERE.
• 21:08 WOMEN IN GREEN IS AN ORGANIZATION
• 21:09 THAT REALLY BELIEVES IN ISRAEL,
• 21:11 BELIEVES IN THE LAND OF THE BIBLE.
• 21:13 RUTH MARTAR IS A JEWISH WOMAN WHO LOVES ISRAEL
• 21:16 AND SHE'S VERY FAMILIAR WITH WHAT TERRORISTS DO
• 21:20 AND HOW THEY REALLY CAN RIP APART THE LAND.
• 21:22 AND SO I REALLY ALWAYS LIKE LISTENING TO HER.
• 21:25 A LOT OF THINGS I DON'T AGREE WITH HER
• 21:26 BUT AS WE WERE TALKING ABOUT EARLIER,
• 21:29 SHE REALLY MAKES ME LOOK LEFT WING
• 21:31 AND SHE'S VERY RIGHT WING.
• 21:32 YOU KNOW WHEN YOU MENTION TERRORISTS
• 21:34 OF COURSE ON THE HEELS OF A DISCUSSION WITH RUTH
• 21:36 IT REMINDS ME THAT THE WAY WAR'S FOUGHT TODAY,
• 21:39 ITS UNCONVENTIONAL AS IT WAS WITH DELILAH.
• 21:42 RIGHT
• 21:43 THAT IS THERE USED TO BE SOME HONOR IN WAR, IF YOU WILL,
• 21:46 WHERE THE MALES OF THE SPECIES WOULD GO OUT
• 21:47 AND THEY'D SQUARE OFF ONE AGAINST ANOTHER.
• 21:49 BUT THIS IS WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION.
• 21:53 THIS IS UNCONVENTIONAL, USING WOMEN, AS PLOYS TO DESTROY.
• 21:58 BUT ITS MORE ABOUT EVIL THAN IT IS A TESTIMONY TO WOMEN'S WANTING TO DEFILE THE MALES, CORRECT?
• 22:05 RIGHT AND IT'S A DIFFERENT PROGRAM.
• 22:06 I DON'T WANT TO DWELL ON EVERYTHING THAT'S EVIL
• 22:09 BECAUSE I THINK WOMEN HAVE GREAT ATTRIBUTES.
• 22:11 BUT I THINK WE NEED TO BE AWARE OF WHAT EVIL LOOKS LIKE, WHAT EVIL CAN DO.
• 22:17 DID YOU KNOW THAT THERE'VE ONLY BEEN 260 YEARS IN RECORDED HISTORY
• 22:22 THERE HAS NOT BEEN A WAR?
• 22:24 260 YEARS
• 22:25 MEN HAVE ALWAYS FOUGHT AND LIKE YOU SAY, IT HAS CHANGED OVER THE YEARS.
• 22:30 THEY USED TO GO OUT IN THE SUMMER AND FIGHT BECAUSE THE WEATHER WAS GOOD.
• 22:33 AND THEY'D ALL GO HOME IN THE WINTER AND THEY'D GO OUT IN THE SUMMER AGAIN.
• 22:35 TALK ABOUT WHAT MEN DO,
• 22:36 DO YOU THINK THE MALES OF THE SPECIES HAVE A HABIT OF
• 22:38 VILIFYING THE WOMEN AS THE SEDUCTRESS, THE MANIPULATOR,
• 22:42 THE BRING ME DOWN KIND OF ....
• 22:44 OR IS THAT OVER PLAYED?
• 22:45 NO, I DON'T KNOW, I LOOK AT THE CULTURE TODAY.
• 22:47 I LOOK AT, AS YOU WILL, GIRLS GONE WILD DOWN IN FLORIDA SHOWING THEIR BIKINIS.
• 22:54 AND THE CULTURE, OUR BRITNEY SPEARS, OUR SINGERS THAT WANT TO LOOK IN YOUR FACE SEXUALITY,
• 23:02 I THINK REALLY DESTROYS MEN, I REALLY DO.
• 23:05 AND TO THAT END LETS REMEMBER TO TURN OUR HEARTS TO GOD,
• 23:08 TO REPENT OF SIN, TO GET RIGHT AND LIVE RIGHT.
• 23:10 GOD HAS A WONDERFUL PLAN FOR OUR LIVES
• 23:13 AND THAT'S NOT REFLECTED ADEQUATELY IN THE PERSON OF DELILAH.
• 23:18 SHALOM FROM JERUSALEM
• 23:19 ACTUALLY WE'RE IN THE GARDEN OF GETHSEMANE.
• 23:22 WE'RE LOOKING AT THE OLIVE TREES JEFF.
• 23:24 OUR PEOPLE ARE BEHIND, THEY'RE LISTENING TO OUR GUIDE ZVI TALK
• 23:27 AND WE'RE GETTING READY TO DO A BIBLE STUDY.
• 23:29 AND THEY ARE HAVING A TRIP OF A LIFETIME.
• 23:31 IF YOU FEEL THE LORD BECKONING YOU
• 23:34 AND MYSTERIOUS IS THE BECKONING THAT HAVE BEEN DRAWING BELIEVERS TO THIS LAND FOR MILLENNIA
• 23:39 DO JOIN US PLEASE FOR A TRIP OF A LIFETIME.
• 23:41 SANDRA AND I KNOW YOU'LL BE BLESSED.
• 24:05 (Zola playing recorder)
• 25:01 IN THESE FINAL MOMENTS JEFF I WANT TO TALK ABOUT EVIL, I WANT TO TALK ABOUT GOOD.
• 25:05 NEXT WEEK WE'RE GOING TO TALK ABOUT AN EDUCATOR
• 25:08 AND HOW WOMEN EDUCATE OUR CHILDREN AND EDUCATE US TO GROW UP AND BE GREAT ADULTS.
• 25:13 SO THAT'LL BE FUN TOO.
• 25:14 WELL THERE'S 8 PROGRAMS IN THIS SERIES,
• 25:16 ONE IS A STORY ABOUT A GIRL GONE BAD.
• 25:18 RIGHT, JUST ONE.
• 25:20 WE JUST HAD TO MAKE SURE THAT PEOPLE UNDERSTOOD WHAT EVIL CAN DO
• 25:23 AND WHAT EVIL REALLY LOOKS LIKE.
• 25:25 WE'VE GOT TO BE AWARE OF IT MORE TODAY THAN ANY OTHER TIME.
• 25:28 AND I BELIEVE THAT TO BE THE CASE,
• 25:29 PARTICULARLY IN OUR CULTURE,
• 25:32 NOT JUST OURS BUT ALL OVER THE WORLD.
• 25:34 WHEN IT COMES TO SEXUALITY GETTING OUT OF THE BAG
• 25:36 AND PEOPLE GOING BAD,
• 25:39 ITS NOT JUST A PROBLEM WITH DELILAH, IT'S A PROBLEM THAT EXISTS IN CONTEMPORARY CULTURE.
• 25:44 AND IF YOU'VE BEEN BITTEN BY THAT BUG
• 25:49 AND WHEN YOU HEAR THE STORY OF DELILAH YOU CAN RELATE TO IT AND FEEL GUILTY,
• 25:54 IF YOU EXPERIENCE SHAME AND GUILT IN CONJUNCTION WITH ALL THIS
• 25:58 I WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT THERE'S A LAUNDER SOAP THAT CAN REMOVE THE STAIN FROM YOUR GARMENT.
• 26:02 I BELIEVE IN THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS,
• 26:04 I BELIEVE THAT THERE'S A NEW LIFE AVAILABLE TO PEOPLE WHO RECEIVE JESUS INTO THEIR HEART.
• 26:09 THEY CAN BE BORN ANEW, THEY CAN GET A NEW SHOT.
• 26:12 AND IF YOU NEED IT, GO FOR IT BECAUSE I WANT YOU TO EXPERIENCE THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS THAT'S AVAILABLE.
• 26:18 THERE'S TOO MANY PROBLEMS ASSOCIATED WITH THIS KIND OF BUSINESS TODAY.
• 26:23 WELL, AND WE HAVE ETERNAL LIFE.
• 26:24 WE'RE TALKING ABOUT LOCATION.
• 26:27 DO YOU WANT TO BE FOREVER SEPARATED FROM GOD?
• 26:29 OR DO YOU WANT TO BE FOREVER IN THE PIT OF HELL?
• 26:32 AND I WANT TO BE WITH MY SAVIOR FOREVER.
• 26:34 IT SEEMS THAT SEXUALITY HAS BEEN A TOOL IN THE HAND OF THE DEVIL
• 26:38 TO BRING DOWN MORE THAN ONE PERSON.
• 26:40 I AGREE
• 26:41 STAY TUNED NEXT WEEK.
• 26:42 "SHA' ALU SHALOM YERUSHALAYIM"
• 26:44 PRAY FOR THE PEACE OF JERUSALEM.
