| 0:00.0 | Hey Bible readers, I'm Tara Lee Cobble, and I'm your host for the Bible Recap. |
| 0:11.8 | Tomorrow marks Day 200 in our reading plan. Can you believe it? And today we wrapped up the 15 |
| 0:18.9 | chapters that cover the judgment of the whole world. |
| 0:21.5 | The last batch of judgment for foreign nations begins with Tyra and Seiden, |
| 0:26.8 | two Phoenician cities that specialize in international trade. |
| 0:30.4 | They're the cities of shipping magnates and they've got ports of trade built up all around the region. |
| 0:35.7 | Business is good, so they're wealthy, influential, popular, |
| 0:39.4 | and most of all, prideful. Their line of work really means they need things to go well with the |
| 0:45.1 | water, so they worship a god named Yam, not the god of sweet potato fries, but the god of the |

| 1:19.2 | the hearts of Tyra don't actually turn to God, but that he still uses their business |
| 1:23.6 | savvy to bless his people. |
| 1:26.0 | We wrap up the judgment of individual nations, but we do not |
| 1:29.4 | get a breather. On the contrary, chapter 24 goes all in with the judgment of the whole earth. |
| 1:36.0 | It covers a range of time from destruction to restoration. It's a dark passage, but even it is not |
| 1:42.2 | without hope. And as people who trust God's goodness and |
| 1:45.7 | sovereignty, texts like this, when we view them rightly, can have the effect of sobering us |
| 1:51.5 | without frightening us. Yahweh can be trusted with these things. He has a perfect track record. |
