[0:00]and you're saying, where was Jesus then, you know, back then? He should have been active. And so, you know, regarding Hebrews, I want to just want to read you this and get your thoughts on this, okay? It's Hebrews 11 regarding Moses. It says, by faith, Moses, and I'm going to just skip down to 25 and 26 for time.

[0:17]Choosing rather to be mistreated with the people of God than to enjoy the fleeting pleasures of sin, he considered the reproach of Christ greater wealth than the treasures of Egypt for he was looking to the reward. So how is it that Moses can be considering Christ's disapproval if Christ wasn't around for him to disapprove?

[0:43]That is a great question. So, Christ, he regarded disgrace for the sake of Christ as greater value than the treasures of Egypt because he was looking ahead to his reward.

[0:54]Now, that's something which I, I think, yeah, I, I think it's a good point. I, I mean, of course, I can offer a Christological interpretation of this which sort of says that Christ is promised as the redeemer of mankind, and we're looking at this in retro, where's he gone? Oh, there you are. And I suppose we're, we're looking at this in retrospect and he regarded disgrace for the sake of Christ.

[1:17]Yeah, I, I do think that in this instance, Hebrews is probably presenting Jesus as I don't know about the angel of Yahweh, but certainly we're looking at a high Christology in Hebrews, yeah.

[1:30]So close. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I see what you're saying. All right, let's go to the next question, cuz we only got a few minutes here. He's so close, guys. But I have no, I, I for what it's worth, I have no problem saying that Hebrews has a high Christology. Uh, that's not, that's kind of, that's kind of not an issue to me, but I think it is interesting to suggest that as a retort to the idea of the angel of Yahweh being Jesus, I think that is an excellent point, yeah.

[1:56]Great job, baby. All right.

[1:59]Avery.
