0:00.0	Hey Bible Readers, I'm Tara Lee Cobble and I'm your host for the Bible Recap.
0:07.0	Today's chapters reiterated a lot of the themes we read about yesterday.
0:17.0	First, that God chose Israel to be his people and that they will continue to be his people
0:21.2	throughout the generations. Second, that he is the one true
0:25.2	God and anyone who worships idols is foolish and sinful and wasteful because the idols
0:30.4	they're worshipping are handmade and will ultimately be destroyed.
0:34.0	Third, God points out his sovereignty over all things.

1:22.0	God is the one who equips Cyrus, even though Cyrus doesn't know him.
1:26.1	God is working through him. God is doing the heavy lifting here, breaking the doors of bronze and
1:31.1	cutting the bars of iron, creating darkness and calamity, bringing
1:34.6	rain and light and fruit, and ultimately using all of this to set his people free from exile.
1:41.8	In Chapter 46, God points out that Babylon, Israel's captors are idolaters.
