| 0:00.0 | All right, why don't we go ahead and get started? And if folks keep drifting in, that's great. We'll just welcome them with our presence. It's nice to see folks here. And as usual, we would like to open it up with a bit of a review and a chance for you know, |
| 0:25.0 | know, last time we got a little bit more deeply into |
| 0:34.8 | this whole realm, this whole realm, whole world of the Polycanon. |
| 0:37.2 | And we looked at the ancient side of, |
| 0:39.8 | you know, kind of the creation side of it. |
| 0:42.3 | How is it preserved and |
| 0:44.8 | transmitted, eventually written down? What are some of the streams that have |

Some people asked about this. We have a link now to the recordings of the first two classes and that's also where this current recording will appear that same spot. |
| 2:17.0 | And there, this time around, they're both audio and video. So I think the tour was capturing. |
| 2:24.3 | Those who didn't get to see it or who want to review it. |
