- 10:54the
- 10:54church
- 10:55as
- 10:55in
- 10:55those

- 26:10that
- 26:11Israel
- 26:11becomes
- 26:11a
- 26:12nation
- 26:12again.
- 26:13And
- 26:13then,
- 26:13of
- 26:13course,

- 26:18they
- 26:18retake
- 26:19the
- 26:19old
- 26:19part
- 26:20of
- 26:20Jerusalem.
- 26:21And
- 26:21then
- 26:21in
- 26:211970,
- 26:22in
- 26:23August
- 26:23of
- 26:231970,
- 26:24they
- 26:25will
- 26:25politically
- 26:25secure
- 26:26Jerusalem
- 26:28for
- 26:28themselves.
- 26:29Now,
