25:29 Closing Thoughts - Розваги
Hey Joel, just wanted to let you know your voice, rationality and logic are needed and appreciated. Keep up the (often humorous) good work!
@@Wine4YouandMe I appreciate this positive comment in a sea of detractors 🙏🏻🧡 and your other comments ☺️
Incredible point about painting the door with yick. God so loves his people but when he goes into berserker killing mode he can pick out the firstborns specifically but can't tell the Hebrews and the Egyptians apart.
That nuance is great! He knows birth order 😜
I had tangential affiliation with Jewish culture through a former spouse, and I'm shocked by how seriously the observation of Passover still is. That's a practice I remember actively deciding, "I am not about this at all; way too strict for a symbolic sabbat."
@@lionspawfilmandphoto interesting! I’m sure it’s a spectrum of devoutness
Hail, just Egypt. Darkness, just Egypt. All of the other plagues, just Egypt. Killing of the firstborn, Egypt and Goshen.
@@vitabrevis4669 He forgot who his people were!! He’s old!! 😜😜
But this is a good observation… why?!
The story keeps getting more insane.
The Documentary Hypothesis is perhaps the most charitable explanation one can use to explain the dull repetitiveness, the inconsistencies and plot holes.
Fundamentalists are not fans. I bet you never heard a peep about it in church.
I only heard of it through deconstruction! But folks can still believe in the God and the doc hypothesis! It’ll fix a lot of problems 😅
But it undermines the validity too much, I guess. Completely negates the infallibility and authority, I would assume.
@@dantallman5345 name one plot hole or inconsistency that hasn't been addressed by Christian theologians/apologists
@@appleking01 Here are some fun ones, non-threatening to core doctrines:
(1) Gen 37 - How did Joseph end up in Egypt? Write it out, step by step-who, what, when, where using all the information given
(2) Numbers 13:33 Caleb reports back that there are giants, descendants of the Nephilim. How did they survive the flood?
(3) 2Samuel 24 vs 1Chron 21. Was it God or Satan that incited the census? Why? Why does a census warrant such carnage?
@dantallman5345 that's it huh? Joseph I'm not sure your point.
Nephilim happened because the same scenarios of angels lying with the daughters of men happened back then. Doesn't now.
As for the census it doesn't matter who. God said don't do it. And David did. Hence the carnage
@@appleking01 Far from it. I just selected three easy, low key things. Let’s do Joseph.
The Joseph story as given in Genesis 37 is hard to follow due to conflicting information. I found it hard to read it attentively as an adult, partly because I “knew the story” from Sunday school. Something would bother me subconsciously but I would slide on past. This tended to happen with the OT stories I knew. The less familiar stories grabbed my attention more. That’s just me, I hope I am not totally unique with this.
Writ large, Joseph was wronged by his brothers and ended up a slave in Egypt. Fine. Now read it as if for the first time and you will find things that don’t make sense. If you want to reconcile the plot holes you will probably find yourself adding information, speculating, perhaps suppressing or discounting parts of the information given, or maybe even twisting the definition of words but it will be a convoluted mess. One apologetic I heard was that in this story Midianites =Ishmaelites; they are in fact consistently represented as different peoples in the Bible, they are never identified as being the same people. Note…story resumes in ch 39, another plot hole.
On the other hand, biblical scholars have divvied up the verses in Ch 37 (and start of ch 39) into two columns and without altering verse order, voila each column holds a clear coherent story, similar but quite distinct. Midianites vs Ishmaelites. Fancy coat vs arrogant dreams. Simeon vs Judah. Etc. There is a logical methodology scholars followed to parse things.i think you can google this and find the parsed versions side by side.
Thx if you read this far.
“Every house in Egypt had someone dead”- every single house had a first born living there? There were no barren women or unmarried people? Every single house. Hm.
@@deniseanderson4270 Oh, good catch! Another bit of pointless hyperbole 😜
I'm just going to throw this out there as a "theory" about why *God* hates yeast. First of all, we may want to explore where the yeast is "Sourced". Secondly, it's important to see that the "Golden Calf" most likely is either Isis or Hathor, which was bad for *God* because "He" is the best and not "She". It was a condemnation of the goddess and the divine feminine. Maybe look at D.A. Hillman's work on the origins of yeast from the goddess culture.
@@AlaryWoods Don’t give me homework. I’m not gonna do it. That said, it’s obvious this god hates women, if that’s what you’re saying.
@@JoelReadsBible I don't blame you. A part of the female microbiome is the yeast and lactic acid found in our "parts". Many have speculated that's how bread was originally leavened. Now you don't have to do any research. You're welcome ;)
@@AlaryWoods We’ve all been making jokes about this! It’s hard to believe it’s true 😳
Maybe the connection between no yeast and circumcision is that god didn't want them to get penile candidiasis (aka male yeast infection)... 🤔... I think yeast might be god's kryptonite.
@@CutTiesWithYourCaptor Oh man!!! How did I miss that perfect joke??!! Dammit!! I’m mad at myself now!!
@@JoelReadsBible If something rises too much (towers, bread, penii) God is NOT having it!
@@lionspawfilmandphoto 😂😂
Laughing so hard now!!
@@AlaryWoods That’s what I’m here for! ☺️🙄🧡
Relugious people have toled me that the death of jesus invaludated all of this.
@@lynnbaker2336 I’ve heard similar, but I don’t get it 😅
God didnt want anyone unfull on the lamb. Why? Cause we have to all eat the lamb of God to fullness
@@appleking01 That sounds poetic, but is also something that doesn’t mean anything.
@@JoelReadsBible about what I got from your drivel
@@appleking01 It’s not my drivel, I was reading Bible.
@@JoelReadsBible lol with interlopations that made your reading nonsensical to me
Ill tell you yeast represents sin
Read jesus
@JoelReadsBible
So, does the death of Jesus mean god didn't put the blood on his own door post...?
@@CutTiesWithYourCaptor Another fun take 😜
But obviously Jesus is the lamb… but he’s also the son… but he’s also the lamb 🤯
@@JoelReadsBible Oh the paradox... 😵💫
@@CutTiesWithYourCaptor 😂😂
🤣 brilliant!
Were the slaves just living next door to their masters like in a neighborhood? You think the slaves would have their own shacks separate from the Egyptians. Then god could’ve just passed over the slaves quarters and all this lamb blood nonsense would be unnecessary 🤷♀️. Call me crazy.
@@deniseanderson4270 I’m pretty confident they were all in Goshen, so you’re absolutely right!!
You do a really good Jordan Peterson 😂😂
@@ignorasmus It’s only because I’ve been doing a really good Kermit for years 😜
I appreciate how Joel's humor veered from goofy to snarky, and the Jordan Peterson voice imitation made me laugh out loud. The obsessions with yeast, foreskin removal, and festival observance admonitions deserved pointing out. And the book of Exodus' casual mention and approval of slavery especially at this point in the timeline is monumentally hypocritical. It is difficult to describe in words how audaciously cringe Exodus 12:44 really is.
@@Wine4YouandMe Thank you for this encouraging and supportive comment! Sometimes I can’t help myself from getting a bit snarky when things go awry in the text. The slavery mentions here and in Gen 17 are very important in discrediting the “that’s just what they did in that time, God was transforming them” apologetic. ☺️
It’s not an approval it’s an allowance
@@TheSignofJonah777 You’re splitting hairs. Allowance is condoning. This is a God who condemns yeast… he can condemn things. He knows how.
@@JoelReadsBible I don’t condone the cartels because I allow them to do their thing. 😂 I can’t stop everything
“He said to them, “Because of your hardness of heart Moses allowed you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it was not so.”
Matthew 19:8
Keep in mind these are the “laws of Moses” not of God.
He allowed them for the people’s hearts were hard. Same concept
@@TheSignofJonah777 The equivalent would be a government saying: Of the drug trafficking you can do in the land, you may use poor people as mules, beating them within an inch of their lives if they don’t pay you the money they get from sales.
That’s different from letting it happen because as a government you can’t stop all crime everywhere. You see the difference, right?
I think you’re wrong and god is real!
@@NickCupolo oh… I never thought of it THAT way!! 😅
This is the Wayne’s World of biblical analysis. I’m guessing this guy dropped out of school probably around the tenth grade 🤡🤬
@@mikebrown9850 That’s funny, but it’s more helpful to correct what I get wrong… if you can’t do that, you’re just as dumb as me.
@@JoelReadsBible oh I can correct plenty, but it would be futile to point out your biblical illiteracy if you don’t believe what’s written therein wouldn’t you agree? Imagine trying to educate someone in say biology who refused to believe what was written in a biology textbook. Here’s a couple of scriptures that should keep you busy for a while-Proverbs 26:4-5.
@@mikebrown9850 I don’t flat out not believe what is in the Bible. If you corrected where I’m getting things wrong, I might see the truth! But the truth is, you have nothing to add because you’re more illiterate than I am. 👋🏻
@@JoelReadsBible Well, at least you’re admitting your illiteracy. For a bit there I was thinking you believed the Hebrew Bible was written in English! It seems you have more of a problem with “yeast” than God. The word leaven is the more correct word as there are leavening agents other than yeast. In your future lampooning you will discover that God instructs the Israelites to use leaven for certain rituals(Leviticus 23:17). You sound like you’ve had some traumatic experience involving religion. I certainly hope you weren’t molested by a priest or something like that! Hopefully you can get past this and find some positive meaning in your life.
