0:00.0 | Before we dive into today's block of scripture, I think that's an important thing to mention |
0:05.7 | here. |
0:08.0 | Whenever you have an opportunity to share things like we're doing, you need to understand |
0:13.1 | that this is just a supplemental resource to what heaven is going to teach you at an individual |

1:34.9 | prophet named Zenus. And then in chapter six, Jacob then interprets why he quoted Zenus, |
