00:30 Welcome, boys and girls,
00:31 to Bible Buzz
00:33 where we have fun
00:35 learning from the B-I-B-L-E!
00:39 And we are tested
00:41 to see how much of the story you remember.
00:44 And I'm so glad I'm joined today
00:46 by my one and only sidekick Neto!
00:51 Neto.
00:52 Now I don't know how many of you know,
00:54 but Neto is from Brazil.
00:56 And in Brazil, they say Oi for hello, Oi.
01:00 So let's say, everyone...
01:02 Everyone say, "Oi, Neto.
01:04 Oi, Neto!"
01:06 We're so glad you're part of the team, Neto.
01:07 And Neto is not alone.
01:09 We have three referees
01:11 that are so important part of our team.
01:13 Please welcome Kaylee, Emily, and Grandma Tina.
01:18 All right.
01:19 Well welcome, referees.
01:21 And, of course,
01:23 we welcome all those of you viewing from home.
01:26 We're so glad you're part of this fun experience
01:29 'cause we're joined together by two, two amazing teams.
01:34 Team number one, please welcome the Blue Jays!
01:37 All right.
01:39 We're so excited the Blue Jays are part of this.
01:42 And also team number two, The Hawks.
01:45 Let's welcome The Hawks.
01:47 Let's welcome The Hawks.
01:49 Let's welcome The Hawks.
01:50 I think the questions today
01:52 will be really good for you guys.
01:53 Yeah.
01:54 Yeah, we stayed up late last night
01:56 to get some really, really good hard questions.
01:59 Are you ready?
02:00 Yeah!
02:02 Are you ready?
02:03 Yeah! All right.
02:05 All right.
02:06 Tell us a story. Tell us a story first.
02:07 The story is quite intense, Neto, quite intense.
02:10 You see, the nation of Israel, the Old Testament tells us,
02:15 they often fought in battles,
02:17 in many battles against many enemies,
02:21 and they use many types of weapons.
02:24 I wonder, Neto,
02:26 what kind of weapons do you think they used?
02:28 Grenades, tanks,
02:30 and then they had like those big helicopters...
02:31 Tanks? Did you say tanks?
02:33 Yeah.
02:34 Grenades? Uh-huh.
02:36 Come on, guys, is he right?
02:38 No!
02:39 No!
02:41 Of course, they didn't use that, Neto.
02:42 They used swords
02:45 and spears and axes.
02:50 And how about slingshots?
02:53 Slingshots?
02:54 Bows! Bows and arrows.
02:56 Boy, those are the weapons they used, Net,
02:58 see we got sharp kids here.
03:00 These guys are sharp.
03:02 They sure didn't have helicopter.
03:03 And you at home, I'm sure you are coming up
03:04 with the same answers.
03:06 Of course, they used swords and slingshots and spears.
03:08 But in one particular battle,
03:12 God came up with a completely different plan.
03:18 Completely different.
03:20 You see, what happened was, in Joshua Chapter 6,
03:25 this is that story of a battle
03:27 that was to take place in a place called Jericho.
03:32 The Israelites had just entered into Canaan,
03:35 and they were about to engage in the first battle
03:39 in the Promised Land.
03:41 And they were all worked up,
03:43 and they came to this massive city.
03:46 And, Neto, believe me, this place was massive.
03:50 How big?
03:52 The walls of Jericho were so huge
03:53 that no ladder in the world
03:56 can get to the top of these walls.
03:58 They were just massive. Massive.
04:00 Yes, referee,
04:01 we have a question here or a comment.
04:03 Could you illustrate like how big?
04:05 Oh, boy! Oh, boy!
04:07 Can you even see the top of this ceiling, everyone?
04:10 Can you see it? Can you see it?
04:12 Well, this, I mean, this is just one, one port...
04:15 I mean, the wall would have been like
04:17 four times higher than this, four times higher.
04:20 Like a big building.
04:22 Like a big building, like a big building.
04:24 And so the Israelites came up to Jericho,
04:27 and they're like, "What's the plan?"
04:31 And Joshua said, "Don't worry, everyone.
04:33 God gave me instructions.
04:35 And this is what we're gonna do."
04:38 He said, "We're gonna get a group of priests.
04:41 I want to get seven priests, seven.
04:44 And we're gonna give each one of them a trumpet,
04:47 seven priests, seven trumpets,
04:49 and then we're gonna bring the Ark of the Covenant,
04:52 which was a symbol of God's presence."
04:56 And so you got the seven priests
04:58 with seven trumpets,
04:59 the Ark of the Covenant followed by hundreds,
05:03 who knows, how many, Neto, many, many armed men.
05:07 And God said, "This is what I want you to do.
05:09 You're gonna go around the city of Jericho for six days,
05:15 once a day,
05:17 you're gonna go around the city of Jericho
05:20 for six days."
05:21 And can you imagine?
05:23 They started doing this going around the city.
05:26 Can you imagine, Neto,
05:27 what the people of Jericho
05:30 were thinking when they saw this?
05:31 They were looking down on them, and they're like,
05:33 "Yeah, these people are crazy."
05:35 "They're crazy!
05:36 They're crazy! What?
05:38 They're going in circles around us.
05:39 What do they think they are doing?"
05:42 But were they doing something that they came up with?
05:46 Was it their idea or was it God's idea?
05:48 God's!
05:50 They were obeying God, they were obeying God.
05:52 And sometimes, boys and girls,
05:54 we got to obey God even if it appears
05:57 to be the silliest thing you're doing.
06:00 It's okay.
06:01 If God tells you to do it, you got to do it.
06:03 And so the Israelites went around Jericho
06:05 once a day for six days.
06:07 And then on the seventh day, Neto, on the seventh day,
06:10 God had a different strategy.
06:13 What was it?
06:14 He said, "Now on the seventh day,
06:16 I want you to go around Jericho,
06:18 not once but seven times,
06:22 all around Jericho seven times.
06:25 And then after seven times, you're gonna shout,
06:28 and Joshua is gonna say,
06:31 'The Lord has given us the city!'
06:34 And then you're gonna take those trumpets,
06:36 and you're gonna blow those trumpets,
06:39 and something amazing will happen."
06:42 And so the Israelites said, "Okay, God, whatever you say."
06:46 Can you imagine?
06:47 You know, let's illustrate this, Neto.
06:49 What do you say? Let's illustrate this.
06:50 Sounds dangerous. Yeah.
06:52 Come here, Neto. Come here.
06:53 Come out here with me for a moment.
06:56 Let's imagine that Neto
06:58 is this massive, massive city, all right?
07:01 I'm gonna need three volunteers.
07:03 Let's see, Abigail, Elijah, Abby.
07:06 Why don't you come up and join us here for a moment.
07:10 And, Neto, come here.
07:12 Come here, Neto.
07:13 What do you got there? Oh, yeah.
07:15 I have some trumpets.
07:16 You got the little trumpets.
07:18 All right, each one of you gets your little trumpet.
07:21 There you go. There you go.
07:23 All right, you're armed with your trumpets.
07:25 All right?
07:27 Neto, you're gonna stand right here.
07:28 I'm a massive city.
07:30 And, Abby, Elijah, and Abigail, you're gonna stand around Neto.
07:35 And on the count of three, you're gonna march to the beat.
07:38 We're gonna go left, right, left, right.
07:40 We're gonna go... Which way?
07:42 Which way? Seven circles...
07:43 That way? This way. You're gonna...
07:44 Elijah, you're gonna follow Abigail.
07:46 Abigail, you're gonna follow Abby.
07:47 Abby, you're gonna follow Elijah.
07:48 And you're gonna go in circles
07:50 seven times around Neto, seven times.
07:52 And at the seventh time, I want all the boys and girls,
07:56 including those who are watching from home,
07:58 I want you to shout as loud as you can.
08:03 As loud as you can.
08:05 And then the three of you are gonna blow your trumpets,
08:08 and we're gonna illustrate
08:10 what must have happened on that day.
08:12 So are you ready, everyone?
08:14 All right.
08:15 Hey, you guys help me.
08:17 Let's count as they go around in circles.
08:19 Ready, go!
08:21 Left, right, left, right, left, right, left, right.
08:24 One.
08:25 One.
08:27 Left, right, left, right. Two!
08:29 And they went faster and faster.
08:31 Left, right, left, right.
08:32 Three! Faster and faster.
08:35 Left, right, left, right.
08:36 Four!
08:38 Five! We're almost there.
08:40 We're almost there.
08:41 Six!
08:42 And after six times,
08:44 they went one final time, seven.
08:46 And then the Israelites shouted...
08:52 "And the Lord has given you the city."
08:56 Trumpets.
08:57 Trumpets.
09:01 Harder, harder, harder.
09:02 Blow it.
09:04 Oh, boy!
09:05 Oh, boy! Wow!
09:07 Hey, let's give our volunteers a hand.
09:09 Good job, guys. Good job.
09:10 Neto, Neto, what's wrong?
09:12 What's wrong, Neto?
09:14 Neto, are you okay?
09:17 Neto, what happened?
09:18 I don't wanna go to school today?
09:20 Ah! What happened to you?
09:22 I don't know.
09:23 Get up, Neto! Get up!
09:25 What happened?
09:27 Wow, listen, if Neto fell down, can you imagine these walls,
09:30 these massive walls came tumbling down,
09:33 all the way down
09:34 and the Israelites were victorious.
09:37 They shouted a shout of victory,
09:39 praising God for delivering,
09:41 for giving Jericho into their hands.
09:44 You know what, boys and girls,
09:46 and those who watching us at home, remember this,
09:48 victory belongs to the Lord.
09:51 He is the one who fights for you.
09:53 There is no need to be afraid when God is by your side.
09:57 And so, boys and girls, that's our story for today.
10:00 And we're gonna come right back after the break,
10:02 and we're gonna quiz you and test you
10:04 to see how much of the story you remember.
10:07 We'll be right back.
