[00:00:00]don't understand that there's only one God. They understand there's only one God in Israel.

[00:00:05]They believe there's other gods.

[00:00:07]>> That is a stretch.

[00:00:08]>> No, it's not a stretch. No, I'll explain it. In Mark chapter 3, they attribute Jesus's power to cast out demons by the God of the world who is Beelzebul. They attribute Jesus's authority to another God because they believe other gods exist.

[00:00:28]They just don't believe they have power in Israel or that they have jurisdiction in Israel.
