And God said,
"Let there be light."

:04:24

And there was light.

:04:27

And from this light,

:04:28

God created life upon earth.

:04:32

And man was given dominion

:04:34

over all things upon this earth

:04:37

and the power to choose
between good and evil.

:04:42

But each sought to do
his own will

:04:45

because he knew not
the light of God's law.

:04:49

Man took dominion over man,

:04:51

the conquered were made
to serve the conqueror,

:04:55

the weak were made
to serve the strong,

:05:00

and freedom
was gone from the world.

:05:03

So did the Egyptians cause
the children of Israel

:05:07

to serve with rigor,

:05:09

and their lives were made bitter

:05:12

with hard bondage.

:05:14

And their cry
came up unto God.

:05:17

And God heard them

:05:19

and cast into Egypt,

:05:21

into the lowly hut
of Amram and Yochabel,

:05:25

the seed of a man

:05:26

upon whose mind and heart
would be written

:05:30

God's law
and God's commandments,

:05:33

one man to stand alone
against an empire.

:05:39

one man to stand alone
against an empire.

:05:39

Divine one,

:05:41

last night,
our astrologers

:05:43

saw an evil star

:05:45

enter into
the House of Egypt.

:05:47

Meaning war?

:05:48

From the frontiers
of Sinai and Libya

:05:50

to the cataracts
of the Nile,

:05:51

what nation would dare
draw the sword against us?

:05:55

The enemy to fear is
in the heart of Egypt.

:05:57

What?

:05:58

The Hebrew slaves
in the land of Goshen.
