late response but I just wanted to say I agree. I range from agnostic to atheist depending on how my day's going but even I groan alloud with how often popular media trash religion, its horrifically unnecessary. To me, its simple. The same people that were always prejudiced will always be prejudiced, regardless of generation. Its no longer 'cool' to hate blacks or gays, so now they hate religion instead. In another 10 years itll be a new group thats 'okay' to hate, and the cycle continues.

If you guys ever run out of biblical stories to talk about (probably still got a long time till that day), or maybe for a change of pace, I've got a suggestion for a related topic. With both your expertise on the Bible and history, I'd love to hear discussions on Christian traditions relating to other religions. What I mean is, people often say a lot of Christian stuff was just taken from a pagan religion and a lot of holidays we now celebrate as Christian (Christmas, Easter) are to replace pagan holidays. However, I've listened to other podcasts where a pretty knowledgeable Catholic guy said, yeah that's not true and there's actual reasons why Christmas is when it is relating to Christ's birth... Anyways, what I'm getting at is, with your knowledge it would be good to hear what you guys think or know in matters such as comparing religions (as in how they might relate to Christianity) as well as Christian traditions and their history.

[@ca44444]

From my understanding as a pagan who is really interested in learning about this stuff, the holidays themselves are based on Christian beliefs/events, but traditions such as Christmas trees or Easter eggs are either originally pagan in nature or introduced by the Victorians. Seeing them analyze other stuff related to Christianity/The Bible would honestly be cool though. Personally I would love to see them go through the Keys of Solomon, which are absolutely wild to learn about.

A thought I had of why a lamb is because sheep are pretty peaceful animals - not totally peaceful because they can headbutt and stampede, but they are a herd animal that is inclined to peacefully graze if undisturbed. So to link that with the "Lamb of God' symbolism, God stands for peace (but not totally harmless) and a lamb is the innocent and pure version of that.

[@stevenpina1983]

Yeah I feel like they missed that point when going over that subject briefly. There is some behavioral symbolism going on there with the lamb and the real animal. Like in the New Testament, where we have the analogy of the sheep and the goats.

"AcKtsHuAlly" Wasn't the water complaint at Kadesh the reason Moses wasn't allowed to enter the promised land? By the time of that incident, it'd been 40 years since the Jews had been this close to crossing over. That was the site where the spies were sent out, came back, and all but two of them stirred up the people against Moses with complaints about how they were going to die in the wilderness. That said, I can see how easily it was for Wendi to conflate the Moses water story and the spies bad report into one single event.

Want to share my theory on the flesh pedestrian and the nephilim. I personally don't think the flesh pedestrians are nephilim, and at the least, I think they are so far from nephilim they cannot be properly refered to as nephilim. I personally postulate that Giants such as Goliath and the nephilim and Norse gods are three different distinct things. Norse/Greek/roman gods all have some sort of innate power. These would be men who would' 'fall' on others. Giants like Goliath have no supernatural powers, other than being big bois physically. Flesh pedestrians cannot teleport, at least as far as I know, but some of them can shapeshift. Some also are immune to bullets if those stories are to be believed. Some have minor teleportation, as in when you look away for a split second, they can get close nearly instantly. This may be fleshgait type memory editing though, simply removing the memory as it's made of it moving closer. That being said I do think that windy bois/ flesh pedestrians as a whole could be at least somewhat supernatural. I am interested to hear your take on this. "And the angels were as mountains, rotating in the void" P.s. absolutely love your channel. Glad to see how much you've grown.

Not sure if they mention this in the video, but, supposedly, the tradition of calling Israel "Palestine" was a form of mockery by the Romans following the crushing of Jerusalem, with the word being derived from "Philistines", and thus stripping Israel/Judea of even their name remaining on the land and renaming it after one of their greatest ancestral enemies. It'd be like if Nazi Germany conquered Great Britain and renamed the island "France 2: The frankening", just to add insult to injury. Of the tribes of Israel, there was no "Tribe" of Joseph, as Jacob gave Joseph the double portion of his blessing/inheritance, which was then split between Joseph's sons Ephraim and Manasseh. Thus there were 12 tribes, as Joseph's descendants made up two "half-tribes" The land, however, was split only 12 ways, as the tribe of Levi didn't have a specific area of it's own, but rather had designated regions in each of the other tribes, as they were the custodians of the Priesthood. Regarding the striking of the rock, I seem to recall it being two separate events, the first being striking the rock, and the second being when he was ordered to speak to the rock a while AFTER the 40 year punishment. I believe Hebrews states that it was a symbolic image of Christ being the rock that is struck and from whom living water flows. The way my pastor described it, anyway, was that the second time should have represented that the work was completed and that all was required was calling upon it, but Moses ruined the imagery by smiting the rock again. The fact he yelled "You want me to give you water, you rebels/morons!" definitely didn't help either, as he both made it seem like he was producing the water himself, like he had the superpower to make water, rather than acting as a conduit for God, while also making it seem as God himself were angry with the Israelites. This was when Moses himself was forbidden from entering Canaan, not the congregation as a whole, which was due to the fear and lack of faith the majority of the people had when the 12 spies were sent into Canaan and returned with the "there's giants here" report. The order of events being: Hebrews leave Mt. Sinai (Numbers 10:11) Spies sent into Canaan (Numbers 13) Israel refuses to enter Canaan (Numbers 14:1-5) Joshua and Caleb speak out in favor of entering (Numbers 14:6-9) God offers to wipe the other israelites out and start over with Moses, who pleads for forgiveness for the people (Numbers 14:11-22) God pronounces the punishment instead being that none of the generation that left Egypt would be allowed to enter the Promised land with the exception of Caleb and Joshua, and they'd all die in the wilderness. Num 14:23-38 Failed attempt to enter Canaan anyway (Rest of Numbers 14) Moses strikes the rock at Kadesh (Numbers 20)

Maybe that was him trying to claim a false heritage, and given that ancient Philistine land may have been Israel, and modern Palestine is in that area as well... well maybe it is circumstantial location.

[@TheLoreLodge]

The term “Palestine” does derive from “Philistine” but in the sense that the Romans renamed the province in 72 AD after the Jewish Revolt. The name change was meant as an insult to the Jews, symbolically giving their homeland to their ancient enemies.

I’m an atheist religious studies MA. I actually enjoy hearing others talk about their faith, theology, and philosophy. We wouldn’t agree on pretty much anything. I don’t view the Exodus as historical in the way it’s portrayed, Judaism was originally henotheistic and became monotheistic during the Babylonian exile, Slavery was/is approved by YHWH and what was read only referred to how to treat Jewish/Hebrew slaves (foreign slaves had it much worse), I don’t see Jesus prophesied anywhere in the Hebrew Bible/OT, etc. However, my only push back would be to be aware of antisemitism. I understand it’s not meant to be malicious but Christian interpretation can come off that way. Pointing out how dumb you think the Jews are/were or that you believe they committed deicide hasn’t led to very good things historically.

Growing up in the church I always thought the prophecies of Jesus were just added over the ages by nuns. Either that, or the prophecies did happen by coincidince. It always bothered me how certain they were that some text is talking about Jesus. Even Isaiah 53 doesn't make sense near the end.

[@LibraryOfChris]

@@ivetterodriguez9628 I grew up in church too, I actually got into religious studies because my church experience. All the Gospels were written 40+ years after Jesus’s crucifixion. With the prophecies, Jesus actually didn’t fulfill the Jewish Messianic prophecies. That’s the reason Christians think he’s going to return and do them. The other prophecies like Isiah 53 weren’t ever considered prophecies by most Jews. The Gospel writers chose things like being from David’s line, being from Bethlehem, and escaping Egypt and being born from a virgin (the Hebrew just says young woman btw) and created the story. The scholarly consensus is Mark was written first around 70-80 and copied along with the Q Gospel (lost gospel with only quotes of Jesus). Around 80-90 Luke and Matthew copied Mark and added and changed things they didn’t like. John was completely separate and written around 90. Most Christians were former pagans so Christianity is a weird mix of Paganism and Judaism, very few Jews actually converted and all Jesus’s followers besides Paul expected people to convert to Judaism if they wanted to be considered Christians. It’s doubtful the early Christians even viewed Jesus as god.

If you're worried about Antisemitism it's not the religion that gives credit to Judaism as the start of abrahamic religions you need to worry about. It's actually kind of laughable to feel the need to say it even given Jews and christians havent had major conflicts in what, 1850 years?
