| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to the Scriptures A Real podcast. I'm your host, Kerry Mealstein, and this is the podcast where we talk about elements that have made the scriptures become very real to us because we think |
| 0:21.4 | we need all the power we can get out of the scriptures. I'm fortunate that today we're having a |
| 0:26.4 | returning guest, my wife Julianne. She did a podcast earlier. I won't give a big introduction or anything. |

| 1:48.1 | part of our culture too but even played a bigger role I think in the culture of the time and |
