Two hours for this? This is a real time sucker. Little information with too much time taken to explain it, with waaaaaay too much blather as filler. Useless. Just tell us the information. Takes a couple of minutes.
21 Because that when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankefull, but became vaine in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened:
22 Professing themselues to be wise, they became fooles:
23 And changed the glory of the vncorruptible God, into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birdes, and foure footed beasts, and creeping things:23
24 Wherefore God also gaue them vp to vncleannesse, through the lusts of their owne hearts, to dishonour their owne bodies betweene themselues:
25 Who changed the trueth of God into a lye, and worshipped and serued the creature more then the Creatour, who is blessed for euer. Amen.
26 For this cause God gaue them vp vnto vile affections: for euen their women did change the naturall vse into that which is against nature:
27 And likewise also the men, leauing the naturall vse of the woman, burned in their lust one towards another, men with men working that which is vnseemely, and receiuing in themselues that recompense of their errour which was meet.
28 And euen as they did not like to retaine God in their knowledge, God gaue them ouer to a reprobate minde, to doe those things which are not conuenient:28
I'm pretty skeptical of anything Josephus wrote, mainly because he was a jew, and jews or now to engage in exaggeration and hyperbole. The last image said that Titus "called God to witness that this was not his doing", which might be a mistranslation, because Titus was not a Christian or a jew. He would have called the gods to witness.

In a used book store in Minnesota, I found a leather bound copy of the Complete Works of Josephus, printed in 1888. Read it all the way through. The oldest book I ever owned. But the stories in the last quarter of the book looked doctored. Finished it ant threw it away.
