Hey, everybody, it's Matt.

This is the 10-minute Bible Hour podcast where we are working through

the book of John, which we're going to talk about John today, but we're also going to talk about

Isaiah today, because this is an Isaiah part of John. But first, a quaint story. I used to teach

college classes in Zambia in Africa. It was a really cool gig. I missed the

students. It was such an interesting, different environment. It was really fun going back and forth.

Well, I should not say it was fun going back and forth. One way that I went back and forth was

brutal. I would go from basically Yellowstone, Jackson-ish, Wyoming,

down to Atlanta, Georgia, and then I would take a flight on Delta from Atlanta all the way to

Johannesburg, South Africa. And let me tell you, the Mercator projection, the way we normally

further than it looks, and it looks far. So I get there, I'd be exhausted, spend a day in Johannesburg,

and then the next day you'd fly a lot further up to Losaka, Zambia, and then you'd drive out

into the bush where the college was. It was just a crazy thing to do again and again. I did not enjoy that version of the trip very much. But there's another version of the trip where sometimes is more economic or whatever to route through Europe. And it was more broken up because you'd have several legs of the trip, but what I liked about that is I could just go

look at history stuff in Europe. And the bummer was that I was alone. So I'm in all these

great places just by myself with my little backpack, tootling around, looking at things, being in

awe, having no one to tell about it. And on one such trip, I was in Rome. I went to the Vatican

City. That's somewhere I've gone a lot. I really like Rome, but it's kind of weird being there

by yourself. So I went to Vatican City. I went to St. Peter's, Basilica. And then right there

adjacent to St. Peter's, not on the Vatican Museum side, but on the other side, they had a special

display that week of the history of the Bible. I went in there, and they had a Gutenberg press,

and you could actually work, they had a working version of it. You could work the press, and I printed
