Health Discovered Podcast, where we bring you fascinating stories and unique perspectives, like our recent episode on how heart failure can particularly affect women and Black and Hispanic communities.

00:47

We've documented it time and time again. She was young. She was Black. She was a woman.

00:53

No one expected her to look like the face of heart failure. When you don't look like what someone expects, that's going to lead to delays in diagnosis.

01:03

We all have to take this consolation of symptoms, treat it the same each and every time, whether it's a young person, a

01:10

Black person, a woman. If someone presents to me with my heart racing and feeling winded, I need to get an echocardiogram 100 % of the time, regardless.

The Rapid Bull Daily Edition, where we provide a quick biblical interpretations and applications.

01:42

This is a ministry of striving for eternity. The next judge that we have is

01:47

Ibsen. Now, Ibsen, we don't have a whole lot about. We actually only have a few verses, and I'll read them for you.

01:54

This is Judges 12, verses 8 -10. And after Ibsen of Bethlehem judged

02:00

Israel, he had 30 sons and 30 daughters he gave in marriage outside his clan.

02:06

And 30 daughters he brought in from outside for his sons, and he judged

02:12

Israel seven years. Then Ibsen died and was buried in Bethlehem.

02:17

That's all we have. And you say, well, that's not a lot. We know he judged. We don't know who he was pressed by in his reign, but it was only for seven years that we see he reigned.

02:32

And what else does it say? Well, it talks about him having 30 sons and 30 daughters. Was that to say he was a very active man?

02:39

Well, obviously he was quite active with 60 children, but there's more to that. In this time period, at that time, to have so many children would actually be a sign of stature.

02:49

This is something we can't comprehend in our culture, but in that culture, when people had a lot of wives and a lot of children, it was a sign of strength.

02:58

It was a sign of authority. This is why you end up seeing that Solomon would be mentioned as having so many wives and concubines, because there would be wives that were married in.

03:07

The fact that these daughters were taken from outside the clans for his sons when his daughters were given to other clans was to show that peace treaties were made.

03:16

He was a very authoritative person. That's why it mentions that, and that's what we can learn from that.
