00:01:11,000<br \/>\nexhortations that I&#8217;ve ever<br \/>\nheard. <\/p>\n<p>18<br \/>\n00:01:12,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:19,280<br \/>\nIt is long for an exhort in my<br \/>\nopinion, but I found it to be so<\/p>\n<p>19<br \/>\n00:01:19,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:23,560<br \/>\ncaptivating that I was right in<br \/>\nthere with him the whole time. <\/p>\n<p>20<br \/>\n00:01:24,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:27,880<br \/>\nIt starts strong and it just<br \/>\nnever lets up. <\/p>\n<p>21<br \/>\n00:01:30,200 &#8211;&gt;

00:01:56,800<br \/>\nin the trash heap that was<br \/>\nburning at Gehenna. <\/p>\n<p>26<br \/>\n00:01:58,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:05,240<br \/>\nBut how things changed when<br \/>\nJoseph of Arimathea and <\/p>\n<p>27<br \/>\n00:02:05,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:10,400<br \/>\nNicodemus involve themselves<br \/>\npersonally in the care of his <\/p>\n<p>28<br \/>\n00:02:10,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:18,480<br \/>\nbody, and then the ensuing<br \/>\nscenes at the empty tomb Brother<\/p>\n<p>29<br \/>\n00:02:18,480 &#8211;&gt;

00:02:43,840<br \/>\nYou know these grave clothes<br \/>\nthat we should leave behind as <\/p>\n<p>34<br \/>\n00:02:43,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:49,720<br \/>\nwell as the core comforting<br \/>\nlesson that where God has rolled<\/p>\n<p>35<br \/>\n00:02:49,720 &#8211;&gt;

00:13:34,600<br \/>\nand lays it tenderly in a new<br \/>\ntomb while Mary watches on. <\/p>\n<p>208<br \/>\n00:13:36,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:37,880<br \/>\nWell, let&#8217;s visit Luke chapter<br \/>\n2. <\/p>\n<p>209<br \/>\n00:13:37,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:40,480<br \/>\nLet&#8217;s.<br \/>\nLook through the window 33 1\/2. <\/p>\n<p>210<br \/>\n00:13:40,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:43,840<br \/>\nYears earlier to see the.<br \/>\nBeginning of this life that has <\/p>\n<p>211<br \/>\n00:13:43,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:59,280<br \/>\nended so horribly come to Luke<br \/>\nchapter 2 from verse. 4 Luke 2, <\/p>\n<p>212<br \/>\n00:13:59,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:02,120<br \/>\nverse 4.<br \/>\nAnd Joseph also went up from <\/p>\n<p>213<br \/>\n00:14:02,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:05,160<br \/>\nGalilee out of the city of<br \/>\nNazareth into Judea under the <\/p>\n<p>214<br \/>\n00:14:05,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:06,560<br \/>\ncity.<br \/>\nOf David, which is called. <\/p>\n<p>215<br \/>\n00:14:06,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:08,280<br \/>\nBethlehem.<br \/>\nBecause he was of the. <\/p>\n<p>216<br \/>\n00:14:08,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:10,280<br \/>\nHouse and lineage of David.<br \/>\nTo be. <\/p>\n<p>217<br \/>\n00:14:10,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:15,120<br \/>\nTaxed with Mary, his espoused<br \/>\nwife, being great with child and<\/p>\n<p>218<br \/>\n00:14:15,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:17,040<br \/>\nso it.<br \/>\nWas that while they were there <\/p>\n<p>219<br \/>\n00:14:17,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:19,720<br \/>\nthe the days were?<br \/>\nAccomplished that she should be <\/p>\n<p>220<br \/>\n00:14:19,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:24,080<br \/>\ndelivered, and she brought forth<br \/>\nher first born son, and wrapped <\/p>\n<p>221<br \/>\n00:14:24,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:30,440<br \/>\nhim in swaddling clothes, and<br \/>\nlaid him in a Manger, because <\/p>\n<p>222<br \/>\n00:14:30,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:32,480<br \/>\nthere was no room for them in<br \/>\nthe inn. <\/p>\n<p>223<br \/>\n00:14:33,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:36,120<br \/>\nAnd there were in the same<br \/>\ncountry shepherds abiding in the<\/p>\n<p>224<br \/>\n00:14:36,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:38,480<br \/>\nfield, keeping watch over their<br \/>\nflock by night. <\/p>\n<p>225<br \/>\n00:14:39,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:42,160<br \/>\nAnd lo, the Angel of the Lord<br \/>\ncame upon them, and the glory of<\/p>\n<p>226<br \/>\n00:14:42,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:45,400<br \/>\nthe Lord shone round about them,<br \/>\nand they were sore afraid. <\/p>\n<p>227<br \/>\n00:14:47,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:53,160<br \/>\nSo there Joseph laid the body.<br \/>\nIn a clean linen cloth in a in a<\/p>\n<p>228<br \/>\n00:14:53,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:57,600<br \/>\nnew tomb here, Mary wraps the<br \/>\nfirst born son in swaddling <\/p>\n<p>229<br \/>\n00:14:57,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:02,280<br \/>\nclothes and gently lays him in a<br \/>\nManger while Joseph looks on. <\/p>\n<p>230<br \/>\n00:15:03,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:08,080<br \/>\nIt was Mary who brought this son<br \/>\ninto the world and and laid him <\/p>\n<p>231<br \/>\n00:15:08,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:11,240<br \/>\nin a Manger, likely where no man<br \/>\nhad ever laid before. <\/p>\n<p>232<br \/>\n00:15:11,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:14,320<br \/>\nAnd it&#8217;s Joseph who lays him to<br \/>\nrest at the end of his. <\/p>\n<p>233<br \/>\n00:15:14,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:17,920<br \/>\nLife this.<br \/>\nSon was born at night and buried<\/p>\n<p>234<br \/>\n00:15:17,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:20,480<br \/>\nat evening.<br \/>\nAt his birth, there would. <\/p>\n<p>235<br \/>\n00:15:20,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:23,560<br \/>\nHave been all the usual sounds<br \/>\nof a newborn, the crying, the <\/p>\n<p>236<br \/>\n00:15:23,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:29,560<br \/>\nrejoicing at his burial, only<br \/>\ntears and silence you can see <\/p>\n<p>237<br \/>\n00:15:30,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:35,880<br \/>\nthere&#8217;s a similarity but a<br \/>\ncontrast and the. <\/p>\n<p>238<br \/>\n00:15:35,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:39,280<br \/>\nBurial of this body was a blow<br \/>\nto the Jews. <\/p>\n<p>239<br \/>\n00:15:39,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:43,200<br \/>\nPlans, this body now had been<br \/>\ntreated with dignity and <\/p>\n<p>240<br \/>\n00:15:43,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:46,000<br \/>\nrespect, with care and love, but<br \/>\nit was only a minor one. <\/p>\n<p>241<br \/>\n00:15:46,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:50,720<br \/>\nThey approached the governor and<br \/>\nsealed and secured the tomb. <\/p>\n<p>242<br \/>\n00:15:52,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:58,080<br \/>\nPicture the futility of this.<br \/>\nScene The Lord is dead. <\/p>\n<p>243<br \/>\n00:15:59,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:02,440<br \/>\nHe has ceased to exist, the one<br \/>\nwho was always there to. <\/p>\n<p>244<br \/>\n00:16:02,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:06,880<br \/>\nCalm the storm to answer the<br \/>\nchallenging questions to comfort<\/p>\n<p>245<br \/>\n00:16:06,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:08,800<br \/>\nthe mourner to.<br \/>\nHeal the. <\/p>\n<p>246<br \/>\n00:16:08,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:11,880<br \/>\nBroken hearted, he&#8217;s no longer<br \/>\nthere. <\/p>\n<p>247<br \/>\n00:16:13,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:16,880<br \/>\nIn their most confused and<br \/>\ndifficult state, they don&#8217;t have<\/p>\n<p>248<br \/>\n00:16:16,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:19,560<br \/>\nthe one that.<br \/>\nIs there usually to solve their <\/p>\n<p>249<br \/>\n00:16:19,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:22,320<br \/>\nproblems?<br \/>\nAnd obviously, the death. <\/p>\n<p>250<br \/>\n00:16:22,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:24,880<br \/>\nOf the Lord is the.<br \/>\nBiggest thing in this chapter, <\/p>\n<p>251<br \/>\n00:16:25,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:29,480<br \/>\nbut consider the other things in<br \/>\nMatthew chapter 27 that are. <\/p>\n<p>252<br \/>\n00:16:29,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:32,280<br \/>\nAdded to show the.<br \/>\nHelplessness of the situation, <\/p>\n<p>253<br \/>\n00:16:32,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:35,360<br \/>\nwell, he&#8217;s condemned as a<br \/>\ncriminal so that public <\/p>\n<p>254<br \/>\n00:16:35,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:37,880<br \/>\nassociation with him will lead<br \/>\nto death. <\/p>\n<p>255<br \/>\n00:16:39,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:42,720<br \/>\nJohn 19 verse 40 says that he&#8217;s<br \/>\nbeen wound in linen and this <\/p>\n<p>256<br \/>\n00:16:42,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:44,360<br \/>\nword wound.<br \/>\nIs. <\/p>\n<p>257<br \/>\n00:16:44,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:48,040<br \/>\nThe same as binding.<br \/>\nLike the man who was bound hand <\/p>\n<p>258<br \/>\n00:16:48,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:50,120<br \/>\nand foot and cast into outer<br \/>\ndarkness. <\/p>\n<p>259<br \/>\n00:16:50,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:54,240<br \/>\nHere he is bound in darkness,<br \/>\nunable to be freed, unable to <\/p>\n<p>260<br \/>\n00:16:54,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:56,640<br \/>\nfree himself, bound hand and<br \/>\nfoot. <\/p>\n<p>261<br \/>\n00:16:58,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:03,600<br \/>\nAnd then there&#8217;s the stone, the<br \/>\ngreat stone, The Monolithos. <\/p>\n<p>262<br \/>\n00:17:04,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:08,440<br \/>\nHistorians tell us it could have<br \/>\ntaken 20 Roman soldiers to move <\/p>\n<p>263<br \/>\n00:17:08,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:13,800<br \/>\na stone like that out of its<br \/>\nplace, and we might ask why, how<\/p>\n<p>264<br \/>\n00:17:13,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:16,040<br \/>\nJoseph and Nicodemus could move<br \/>\nit into place. <\/p>\n<p>265<br \/>\n00:17:16,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:18,520<br \/>\nWell, typically there was a<br \/>\nsmall depression in front of the<\/p>\n<p>266<br \/>\n00:17:18,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:22,319<br \/>\ngrave, and moving it into place<br \/>\nwas significantly easier than <\/p>\n<p>267<br \/>\n00:17:22,319 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:24,760<br \/>\nmoving it out of.<br \/>\nPlace at least. <\/p>\n<p>268<br \/>\n00:17:24,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:29,880<br \/>\nFor a man, but this word<br \/>\nmonolithos, it&#8217;s a monolith. <\/p>\n<p>269<br \/>\n00:17:29,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:32,480<br \/>\nIs a the sort?<br \/>\nOf thing that we typically look <\/p>\n<p>270<br \/>\n00:17:32,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:35,560<br \/>\nat today and think.<br \/>\nHow did that get there? <\/p>\n<p>271<br \/>\n00:17:36,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:40,240<br \/>\nThings like Stonehenge.<br \/>\nOr the Easter Island heads. <\/p>\n<p>272<br \/>\n00:17:42,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:46,440<br \/>\nThey look immovable and that&#8217;s<br \/>\nwhat this stone is meant to look<\/p>\n<p>273<br \/>\n00:17:46,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:50,360<br \/>\nlike, immovable.<br \/>\nAnd just to emphasize this in <\/p>\n<p>274<br \/>\n00:17:50,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:55,920<br \/>\nMark chapter 16, verse 3, when<br \/>\nthe women are coming to the tomb<\/p>\n<p>275<br \/>\n00:17:56,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:00,280<br \/>\non the first day of.<br \/>\nThe week they say, Who shall <\/p>\n<p>276<br \/>\n00:18:00,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:02,600<br \/>\nroll away?<br \/>\nWho shall roll us away? <\/p>\n<p>277<br \/>\n00:18:02,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:04,320<br \/>\nThe.<br \/>\nStone from the door. <\/p>\n<p>278<br \/>\n00:18:04,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:07,880<br \/>\nOf the sepulchre.<br \/>\nThis was their major concern. <\/p>\n<p>279<br \/>\n00:18:08,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:10,600<br \/>\nHow can we?<br \/>\nPossibly use these sweet spices.<\/p>\n<p>280<br \/>\n00:18:10,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:14,960<br \/>\nWe&#8217;ve prepared on our Lord when<br \/>\nthis great stone is blocking <\/p>\n<p>281<br \/>\n00:18:14,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:20,120<br \/>\naccess.<br \/>\nAnd then there&#8217;s the seal on the<\/p>\n<p>282<br \/>\n00:18:20,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:24,520<br \/>\ntomb.<br \/>\nMatthew 27 verse. 66 says so <\/p>\n<p>283<br \/>\n00:18:24,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:26,400<br \/>\nthey.<br \/>\nWent and made the sepulchre <\/p>\n<p>284<br \/>\n00:18:26,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:30,320<br \/>\nshore, sealing the stone and<br \/>\nsetting a watch. <\/p>\n<p>285<br \/>\n00:18:31,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:35,040<br \/>\nThis seal is illegal to break.<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s against the law of sin and <\/p>\n<p>286<br \/>\n00:18:35,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:36,920<br \/>\ndeath in a sense.<br \/>\nTo break the. <\/p>\n<p>287<br \/>\n00:18:36,920 &#8211;&gt;

00:18:54,680<br \/>\nBound, unable to move.<br \/>\nThere&#8217;s this great immovable <\/p>\n<p>292<br \/>\n00:18:54,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:56,160<br \/>\nstone.<br \/>\nThere&#8217;s a seal on the. <\/p>\n<p>293<br \/>\n00:18:56,160 &#8211;&gt;

00:40:11,400<br \/>\nIt was a new tomb in which never<br \/>\nman had laid. <\/p>\n<p>632<br \/>\n00:40:11,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:13,240<br \/>\nNo one had come out of here<br \/>\nbefore. <\/p>\n<p>633<br \/>\n00:40:15,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:18,520<br \/>\nAnd also in Joshua, the great<br \/>\nstones were stacked on the mouth<\/p>\n<p>634<br \/>\n00:40:18,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:21,520<br \/>\nof The Cave containing the five<br \/>\nkings, and those stones remain <\/p>\n<p>635<br \/>\n00:40:21,520 &#8211;&gt;
