It was the guy 142 00:06:26.399 --> 00:06:30.279 who wrote Proverbs. Oh yeah, yeah, it was Solomon Solomon. 143 00:06:30.639 --> 00:06:34.560 So so in this way Proverbs, in this small way, 144 00:06:34.720 --> 00:06:35.600 you are sort. 145 00:06:35.399 --> 00:06:40.160 Of like Solomon, Yes, Solomon and Jeff Solomon of old 146 00:06:40.279 --> 00:06:41.680 I wonder if you like chicken nuggets? 147 00:06:42.600 --> 00:06:44.759 I bet you he did. Do you think they had 148 00:06:44.839 --> 00:06:46.800 chicken nuggets? They had chicken chicken. 149 00:06:47.480 --> 00:06:48.600 You make nuggets out of chicken. 150 00:06:48.879 --> 00:06:49.560 Yeah, but they. 151 00:06:49.439 --> 00:06:51.680 Didn't have to grind up chicken in order to process 152 00:06:51.680 --> 00:06:53.160 it and deep fry it. 153 00:06:54.120 --> 00:06:56.879 I don't think they deep fried back then, you know. 154 00:06:59.279 --> 00:07:02.439 Oh yeah, I think they had full awful back then. Sure. 155 00:07:03.720 --> 00:07:07.000 But do you think we just recently Colonel Sanders discovered 156 00:07:07.240 --> 00:07:07.879 fried chicken? 157 00:07:08.680 --> 00:07:10.879 Well, no, but fried chicken. I know when that was invented. 158 00:07:11.399 --> 00:07:13.000 It was during slavery times. 159 00:07:13.199 --> 00:07:17.240 Really, yeah, you don't think they were doing it beforehand? Well, 160 00:07:17.920 --> 00:07:19.199 I think they brought it with him. 161 00:07:19.360 --> 00:07:21.680 I hate to say this, but I do know the 162 00:07:21.720 --> 00:07:25.160 origin of this. They were trying to figure out how 163 00:07:25.199 --> 00:07:28.360 to bring more calories to a piece of chicken for 164 00:07:28.399 --> 00:07:31.720 people working in fields. Right, So they discovered that frygant 165 00:07:31.839 --> 00:07:36.040 oil could triple the amount of calories for people so 166 00:07:36.079 --> 00:07:36.439 that they. 167 00:07:36.319 --> 00:07:39.800 Could work along. Oh wow, right, it's a horrible beginning. 168 00:07:39.879 --> 00:07:41.199 It's a horrible. 169 00:07:41.000 --> 00:07:46.399 Horrible origin story. But that is where fried chicken came from. 170 00:07:46.439 --> 00:07:50.040 Wow. Okay, well, I'm going to trust you on that one. 171 00:07:50.240 --> 00:07:51.199 Yeah, terrible. 172 00:07:51.560 --> 00:07:56.519 So with Hezekiah, he's been digging through the temple yep, 173 00:07:56.600 --> 00:08:00.439 they're cleaning stuff up, yep, and he's deciding to lean 174 00:08:00.480 --> 00:08:03.199 into the word. He's going to find out and then 175 00:08:03.240 --> 00:08:05.560 you know what he did. But he found several of 176 00:08:05.560 --> 00:08:08.800 the proverbs of Solomon that hadn't been published yet in 177 00:08:08.839 --> 00:08:13.480 the temple. So it says this in Proverbs chapter twenty five. 178 00:08:13.959 --> 00:08:17.160 And we haven't read this one yet, because there are more. 179 00:08:17.519 --> 00:08:20.680 These are more proverbs of Solomon collected by the advisors 180 00:08:20.680 --> 00:08:22.279 of King Hezekiah of Judah. 181 00:08:22.360 --> 00:08:25.199 Oh cool, really, well, I mean our goal is to 182 00:08:25.199 --> 00:08:26.800 go in chronological orders, that's right. 183 00:08:27.120 --> 00:08:30.680 So it's God's privilege, the Bible says, to conceal things, 184 00:08:30.759 --> 00:08:34.519 and the king's privilege to discover them. No one can 185 00:08:34.519 --> 00:08:36.679 comprehend the height of heaven, the depth of the earth, 186 00:08:36.759 --> 00:08:39.919 or all that goes on in the king's mind. Remove 187 00:08:40.039 --> 00:08:42.960 the impurities from silver, and the sterling will be ready 188 00:08:43.000 --> 00:08:46.320 for the silversmith. Remove the wicked from the king's court, 189 00:08:46.480 --> 00:08:50.120 and his reign will be made secure by justice. Don't 190 00:08:50.120 --> 00:08:52.039 demand an audience with the king or push for a 191 00:08:52.039 --> 00:08:54.240 place among the great. It's better to wait for an 192 00:08:54.279 --> 00:08:56.759 invitation to the head table than to be sent away 193 00:08:56.759 --> 00:08:59.919 in public disgrace just because you've seen something. Don't be 194 00:09:00.000 --> 00:09:02.159 in a hurry to go to court, for what will 195 00:09:02.159 --> 00:09:03.919 you do in the end if your neighbor deals you 196 00:09:03.960 --> 00:09:07.879 a shameful defeat. When arguing with your neighbor, don't betray 197 00:09:07.919 --> 00:09:10.759 another person's secret. Others may accuse you of gossip, and 198 00:09:10.799 --> 00:09:15.919 you will never again regain your good reputation. Timely advice 199 00:09:16.000 --> 00:09:19.000 is lovely like golden apples in a silver basket to 200 00:09:19.080 --> 00:09:22.440 one who listens. Valid criticism is like a gold earring 201 00:09:22.639 --> 00:09:26.720 or other gold jewelry. Trustworthy messengers refresh like snow in 202 00:09:26.720 --> 00:09:29.080 the summer, and they revive the spirit of their employer. 203 00:09:30.159 --> 00:09:32.360 A person who promises a gift but doesn't give it 204 00:09:32.440 --> 00:09:36.440 is like clouds and wind that bring no rain. Patients 205 00:09:36.480 --> 00:09:39.480 can persuade a prince, and soft speech can break bones. 206 00:09:40.480 --> 00:09:42.600 Do you like honey? Don't eat too much or it'll 207 00:09:42.639 --> 00:09:46.440 make you sick. Don't visit your neighbors too often, or 208 00:09:46.480 --> 00:09:50.679 you will wear out your welcome. Telling lies about others 209 00:09:50.799 --> 00:09:53.240 is as harmful as hitting them with an axe, wounding 210 00:09:53.240 --> 00:09:55.440 them with the sword, or shooting them with a sharp harrow. 211 00:09:56.879 --> 00:09:59.720 Putting confidence in an unreliable person in times of trouble 212 00:09:59.799 --> 00:10:01.919 is life chewing with a broken tooth or walking on 213 00:10:02.000 --> 00:10:06.120 a lame foot. Singing cheerful songs to a person with 214 00:10:06.200 --> 00:10:08.720 a heavy heart is like taking someone's coat in cold 215 00:10:08.759 --> 00:10:12.159 weather or pouring vinegar in a wound. If your enemies 216 00:10:12.159 --> 00:10:14.399 are hungry, give them food to eat. If they're thirsty, 217 00:10:14.480 --> 00:10:17.080 give them water to drink. You will heap burning coals 218 00:10:17.120 --> 00:10:19.080 of shame on their heads, and the Lord will reward 219 00:10:19.159 --> 00:10:22.240 you as surely as the north wind brings rain. So 220 00:10:22.320 --> 00:10:25.559 a gossiping tongue causes anger. It's better to live alone 221 00:10:25.600 --> 00:10:27.679 in the corner of an attic than with a quarrelsome 222 00:10:27.759 --> 00:10:29.879 wife and a lovely home. That's how you know we're 223 00:10:29.919 --> 00:10:32.559 still reading Solomon's writings. Dude, he writes this about every 224 00:10:32.559 --> 00:10:36.799 fifth chapter, doesn't it. In the Book of Proverbs, good 225 00:10:36.840 --> 00:10:40.360 news from far away is like cold water to the thirsty. 226 00:10:40.440 --> 00:10:42.519 If the god they give in to the wicked, It's 227 00:10:42.559 --> 00:10:46.000 like polluting a fountain or muddying a spring. It's not 228 00:10:46.039 --> 00:10:47.759 good to eat too much, honey, And it's not good 229 00:10:47.759 --> 00:10:51.720 to seek honors for yourself. A person without self control 230 00:10:52.039 --> 00:10:55.279 is like a city with broken down walls. Well there 231 00:10:55.320 --> 00:10:55.559 you go. 232 00:10:55.759 --> 00:10:57.759 Yeah, So the similes here are these? 233 00:10:58.120 --> 00:11:00.360 These are similies, right, because there's the word like sure, 234 00:11:01.320 --> 00:11:05.679 the similes here are just unbelievable. Think about all the 235 00:11:05.679 --> 00:11:09.360 word pictures that you just covered. Yeah, it says this 236 00:11:09.759 --> 00:11:13.399 doing this is like this, and what a great By 237 00:11:13.399 --> 00:11:16.159 the way, I love I love those. I love those 238 00:11:16.600 --> 00:11:18.720 because he takes a you know, a lot in a 239 00:11:18.759 --> 00:11:22.159 lot of cases, a miserable experience, and he says like, hey, 240 00:11:22.559 --> 00:11:25.320 did you ever Hey, have you ever trusted somebody who 241 00:11:25.399 --> 00:11:27.559 was untrustworthy in a time of trouble? 242 00:11:28.039 --> 00:11:28.240 Yeah? 243 00:11:28.480 --> 00:11:28.639 Yeah? 244 00:11:28.679 --> 00:11:31.639 Did you ever chew on something with a broken tooth? 245 00:11:32.360 --> 00:11:34.360 Did you ever walk with a lame foot? You know, 246 00:11:34.440 --> 00:11:39.759 the pain of every single step, the pain of every bike? Yeah, yeah, 247 00:11:39.799 --> 00:11:43.519 that's what it's like to trust somebody who's untrustworthy in 248 00:11:43.519 --> 00:11:46.879 times of trouble telling, Telling lies about each other is 249 00:11:46.919 --> 00:11:50.200 as harmful as hitting them with an axe. That's a 250 00:11:50.240 --> 00:11:55.639 gruesome metaphor word picture, right, Yeah, and so yeah, it 251 00:11:55.759 --> 00:11:57.200 just goes on and on and on. 252 00:11:57.240 --> 00:11:59.360 Person who promises a gift but doesn't give it. It's like 253 00:11:59.480 --> 00:12:02.559 clouds and win that bring no rain, singing the promise 254 00:12:02.679 --> 00:12:03.600 rain with no rain. 255 00:12:03.679 --> 00:12:06.279 Right yeah, singing cheerful songs to a person with a 256 00:12:06.279 --> 00:12:10.080 heavy heart. Yeah, it's like pouring vinegar and something after 257 00:12:10.120 --> 00:12:11.000 you just cut yourself. 258 00:12:11.159 --> 00:12:13.519 A person without self control is like a city with 259 00:12:13.639 --> 00:12:14.600 broken down walls. 260 00:12:14.679 --> 00:12:16.080 Yeah, it's pretty crazy. 261 00:12:16.120 --> 00:12:18.960 Your self control, how you manage yourself is what protects 262 00:12:19.000 --> 00:12:21.759 you from ruining your life. Yeah, that's what he's talking about. 263 00:12:21.879 --> 00:12:26.159 So so you almost don't even want You almost want 264 00:12:26.159 --> 00:12:29.879 to avoid Solomon's wife comments. 265 00:12:30.080 --> 00:12:32.360 Yeah right, It's like it's. 266 00:12:32.279 --> 00:12:33.960 Like, who's going to touch that with a ten football? 267 00:12:34.200 --> 00:12:36.000 Well, the guy who had a thousand wives? He can. 268 00:12:36.039 --> 00:12:37.799 He can touch it with a ten foot poll right, 269 00:12:38.200 --> 00:12:40.279 he can touch with a tenant pole. He can touch 270 00:12:40.639 --> 00:12:44.120 the ten milimeter pole. He does, he does. All he 271 00:12:44.159 --> 00:12:45.960 has to do is just look around. That's all you 272 00:12:46.000 --> 00:12:46.399 have to do. 273 00:12:46.919 --> 00:12:49.279 Yeah, it's better to live alone in the quarter of 274 00:12:49.320 --> 00:12:52.159 an attic than with a quarrelsome wife in a lovely home. 275 00:12:52.639 --> 00:12:57.399 That is hilarious. Right, So he's really just saying, it's what. 276 00:12:57.639 --> 00:12:59.840 Do you think about it? You should you should explain. 277 00:12:59.519 --> 00:13:01.519 It a quarrelsome wife. 278 00:13:02.080 --> 00:13:02.679 I'm joking. 279 00:13:02.960 --> 00:13:04.840 Oh, I was going to say, what are you talking about? 280 00:13:04.840 --> 00:13:07.039 You about to get in trouble?

Yes, and Liz was talking about listening and. 283 00:13:13.960 --> 00:13:14.720 Talking back to it. 284 00:13:14.799 --> 00:13:18.720 Yeah, yeah, talking back to back to the podcast podcast. 285 00:13:19.080 --> 00:13:20.600 Yeah yeah, yeah. Yeah. 286 00:13:20.639 --> 00:13:23.799 In fact, so I would say, I would say ninety 287 00:13:23.840 --> 00:13:27.120 nine times out of one hundred. Maybe perhaps she listens 288 00:13:27.159 --> 00:13:29.639 to the bibble guys getting ready because she works five 289 00:13:29.679 --> 00:13:32.799 days a week, right, Monday through Friday, and we have 290 00:13:32.919 --> 00:13:35.879 this podcast Fridays a week, Right, so she will get 291 00:13:35.960 --> 00:13:38.600 up in the morning, put on our makeup and listen 292 00:13:38.600 --> 00:13:42.039 and I could hear it from the master bathroom. Oh 293 00:13:42.200 --> 00:13:44.840 and a lot of times, Sugar it up slightly before me, right, 294 00:13:45.039 --> 00:13:46.720 so she has to get a little bit earlier for 295 00:13:46.759 --> 00:13:49.480 where she works and so by the time she's ready 296 00:13:49.519 --> 00:13:51.039 to walk out the door, that's about the time that 297 00:13:51.080 --> 00:13:52.639 I crawl out of bed, right, And it works out 298 00:13:52.639 --> 00:13:54.879 because she's in the bathroom by herself, right, And so 299 00:13:54.919 --> 00:13:57.039 anyway she will instead. 300 00:13:56.720 --> 00:13:59.919 Of yelling at me in bed, she'll yell at the phone. 301 00:14:02.440 --> 00:14:02.639 Right. 302 00:14:03.080 --> 00:14:05.639 But every once in a while she'll like, she'll come 303 00:14:05.679 --> 00:14:06.440 in and she'll. 304 00:14:06.320 --> 00:14:07.960 Be like, you know, she'll come out of the bathroom, 305 00:14:08.000 --> 00:14:10.840 she'll say, what were you thinking or something like that. 306 00:14:11.080 --> 00:14:13.159 Well, it's a good it's good news that you have 307 00:14:13.279 --> 00:14:16.600 almost no concept of the meaning or the experience of. 308 00:14:16.519 --> 00:14:19.279 That, that's correct. It is so foreign to me. I'm like, Solomon, 309 00:14:19.360 --> 00:14:22.759 what do you mean, Solomon? I don't understand this piece 310 00:14:22.799 --> 00:14:23.320 of wisdom? 311 00:14:25.919 --> 00:14:29.039 Right? What does the Galatian say to the pure? All 312 00:14:29.080 --> 00:14:29.679 things are pure? 313 00:14:32.519 --> 00:14:36.799 That's so funny, so so yeah, but I do think 314 00:14:36.840 --> 00:14:39.360 it is funny though. But the other day, didn't I 315 00:14:39.399 --> 00:14:41.480 get in trouble? I made like a wife comment or 316 00:14:41.480 --> 00:14:44.559 a woman comment from the stage, and there was somebody 317 00:14:44.799 --> 00:14:47.759 who wrote in I can't believe Chris said that from 318 00:14:47.759 --> 00:14:48.600 the stage. 319 00:14:48.480 --> 00:14:51.879 Some kind of sexist statement or something it was, and 320 00:14:51.960 --> 00:14:53.200 you were just making I. 321 00:14:53.120 --> 00:14:55.639 Was poking fun at Adam and Eve. That's what it was. 322 00:14:56.039 --> 00:15:00.679 And I said something like, oh, come on, it was 323 00:15:00.720 --> 00:15:06.240 something like it was it was. It was something about. 324 00:15:06.000 --> 00:15:08.519 Adam and Eve and how Eve was the one that 325 00:15:08.720 --> 00:15:12.600 ate the apple, and and she blamed Adam or something 326 00:15:12.639 --> 00:15:12.919 like this. 327 00:15:13.360 --> 00:15:15.840 And I just believe this. She blamed the snake, she 328 00:15:15.919 --> 00:15:16.559 blamed the snake. 329 00:15:16.600 --> 00:15:20.279 And yeah, so anyway, it was something about that, and 330 00:15:20.279 --> 00:15:24.000 and somebody wrote in and said, I can't believe that 331 00:15:24.440 --> 00:15:27.879 he would say, you know what, I don't want to 332 00:15:27.879 --> 00:15:30.120 waste people's time. But it's on the tip of my 333 00:15:30.200 --> 00:15:31.440 tongue what I said exactly. 334 00:15:31.639 --> 00:15:35.240 The thing about comedy is this, especially when it comes 335 00:15:35.320 --> 00:15:39.399 to generalities. Yes, so generalities can be funny, yes, And 336 00:15:39.440 --> 00:15:44.080 the reason is all of us kind of understand the generalities, 337 00:15:44.200 --> 00:15:46.399 so where you might look at it and go, well, 338 00:15:46.440 --> 00:15:48.639 not my wife, but you can look at it and go, 339 00:15:48.919 --> 00:15:50.840 his wife and his wife and his wife kind of 340 00:15:50.879 --> 00:15:53.879 are that way, right or whatever, or you know, not 341 00:15:54.080 --> 00:15:57.679 my opinions, but other people's opinions. They're not my behaviors, 342 00:15:57.720 --> 00:16:01.360 but other people's. So it's not that every single person 343 00:16:01.759 --> 00:16:04.039 in a group is exactly the same way. 344 00:16:04.080 --> 00:16:04.440 Oh, I know. 345 00:16:04.480 --> 00:16:06.840 The groups tend to have generalities and then they wind 346 00:16:06.960 --> 00:16:10.159 up being funny. And so the idea behind comedy is 347 00:16:10.519 --> 00:16:13.440 sometimes the group dynamic is a funny dynastic. 348 00:16:13.480 --> 00:16:14.000 I know it was. 349 00:16:14.879 --> 00:16:16.639 So when she was quoting back to the serpent in 350 00:16:16.720 --> 00:16:20.279 her conversation, she said, God said you must not eat 351 00:16:20.320 --> 00:16:21.799 it or even touch it. 352 00:16:22.000 --> 00:16:24.440 Yes, you die. And by the way, that's what God 353 00:16:24.480 --> 00:16:24.919 did not say. 354 00:16:25.000 --> 00:16:26.639 He didn't say that, so I didn't say anything about 355 00:16:26.679 --> 00:16:28.080 don't touch it. He said don't eat. 356 00:16:27.919 --> 00:16:28.240 It, okay. 357 00:16:28.279 --> 00:16:31.320 So I made the joke and I said, well, I said, 358 00:16:31.320 --> 00:16:35.440 she's being dramatic because you know she's a woman. Oh yeah. 359 00:16:35.480 --> 00:16:38.480 And then and then everybody laughed hard. And then I 360 00:16:38.519 --> 00:16:43.080 said immediately, I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. And then 361 00:16:43.159 --> 00:16:44.080 and then somebody wrote in. 362 00:16:44.080 --> 00:16:46.240 So you took a beating for that. Well, so then 363 00:16:46.320 --> 00:16:48.039 now you just thought you go online and just tell. 364 00:16:47.919 --> 00:16:51.960 You only there's only right, right, There was only like 365 00:16:52.039 --> 00:16:53.000 one person that wrote in. 366 00:16:53.080 --> 00:16:55.120 I told five thousand people this Sunday, and I had 367 00:16:55.159 --> 00:16:57.000 some people, man, so I thought I'd tell ten thousand 368 00:16:57.039 --> 00:16:57.919 more today. 369 00:16:58.480 --> 00:17:01.759 Right, somebody wrote in, I think it was only one person. 370 00:17:02.039 --> 00:17:04.160 We got to talk about that self disciplined thing again. 371 00:17:04.240 --> 00:17:07.200 Remember self control. A person without self control is like 372 00:17:07.240 --> 00:17:09.839 a city with broken down walls. You have any defenses. 373 00:17:10.400 --> 00:17:12.920 I have no defenses. I'm like, I'm like a city. 374 00:17:13.200 --> 00:17:16.079 I'm like a city with no walls. Come at me 375 00:17:16.119 --> 00:17:16.599 with your. 376 00:17:18.400 --> 00:17:22.519 Exactly. They're coming, the angry mobs. Your walls are down, 377 00:17:22.680 --> 00:17:24.039 and the angry mobs are coming. 378 00:17:24.160 --> 00:17:27.319 This one woman said, women need to get out of 379 00:17:27.319 --> 00:17:30.440 that stigma, so don't fuel it by your jokes. 380 00:17:30.599 --> 00:17:31.359 That's what she said. 381 00:17:31.519 --> 00:17:35.480 Okay, yeah, well it's your jokes are single handedly oppressing. 382 00:17:36.359 --> 00:17:40.240 Well, I mean she's not, you know, it's you know, 383 00:17:40.319 --> 00:17:42.079 I mean, you know, I don't want to take away 384 00:17:42.079 --> 00:17:42.599 her argument. 385 00:17:42.720 --> 00:17:45.200 It's not like she's wrong. It's just that, you know, 386 00:17:45.759 --> 00:17:47.400 my theory is lighting up a little bit. 387 00:17:47.440 --> 00:17:51.480 Yeah, we're just joking, just joking, jo. Comedy is good 388 00:17:51.480 --> 00:17:54.680 for the soul. Yes, so there is a thing here. 389 00:17:54.759 --> 00:17:56.160 You know. One of the things I love about the 390 00:17:56.160 --> 00:18:00.559 Bible is how the Bible gives evidence and weight and 391 00:18:02.279 --> 00:18:05.799 confidence for a Christian to say this, the Bible is 392 00:18:05.799 --> 00:18:09.279 trustworthy and truth. And in one of these a lot 393 00:18:09.319 --> 00:18:11.880 of times, it's when the Bible references itself, because remember 394 00:18:11.960 --> 00:18:13.519 the Bible wasn't written all a one time it is 395 00:18:13.559 --> 00:18:17.000 written by forty something authors over fifteen hundred year period. 396 00:18:17.079 --> 00:18:17.559 That's right. 397 00:18:17.680 --> 00:18:24.799 And Jesus quotes this passage. So Jesus quotes verse six 398 00:18:24.839 --> 00:18:27.039 and seven. What he does is he adapts them into 399 00:18:27.039 --> 00:18:29.960 a parable right. So verse six he said, don't demand 400 00:18:29.960 --> 00:18:31.480 an audience with the king or push for a place 401 00:18:31.519 --> 00:18:33.319
