Bible Study by Atheists Weekly: Ezekiel Chapters 46 - 48 plus Q&A, Wrap up and Contradictions

[00:00:00] Welcome to Sacrilegious Discourse. For this is what the sovereign Lord says, Why do you need prophets to tell people who you are and what you want? If you can justify everything that the God of the Bible has done,

[00:00:11] then you can justify any of your behavior. A lot of this mentality is trickling into what is now mainstream right wing Christianity. I am capable of empathy greater than this God of the Bible.

[00:00:26] This is a Bible that they tell kids, this is the good Lord, this is the good book, this is He is fantasizing about murder, mass murder. And over to Sacrilegious Discourse.com right now I got a little sort of you or some who doesn't hate you.

[00:00:43] And Wife, do you remember where the hell we are today and where we were on Friday and how we got here today on Monday? Well on Friday we read Ezekiel Chapters 45. We sure spoke dead.

[00:01:00] And in that chapter we had Ezekiel, no, Wife, God was telling Ezekiel to divide up land between certain people like the the the Zadakites and the Leviites and the kings and all kinds of

[00:01:17] fun shit like that. So that was where we were on Friday. And before we get into what we're doing today, I do want to give a shout out because we actually have a new patron and they have

[00:01:32] just recently recorded or I'm sorry. They've just recently joined us as a patron and I just wanted to say thank you. So hope each we want to say thank you so much. They said that they

[00:01:46] think that we have a great balance and then they enjoy the banter and that you remind them a lot of the bell things that they would say. Oh that is always so fun to hear because you would

[00:01:59] not believe how often I hear that I am outlandish or over the top or I don't know I use too many ev help. Tell them how I say about you. Oh I'm never. No, it's not your just people in general.

[00:02:12] Okay, so it's always nice to hear from people that either enjoy me as a person or that um our like me that's even funer. That's right. Thank you, hope. Yeah and and thank you for joining

[00:02:27] this patron. It really means a lot to us. We we couldn't do this without you guys honestly. We're on a shooting budget and our shooting is fried so thank you so much guys. Yeah thank you.

[00:02:40] So that being said we are hopping into Zeekeel. Oh wait what are we hopping into today? Yeah yeah. I was doing a lot of work taking your thunder there. A Zeekeel chapter 46. All right let's do this. Okay dokey.

[00:03:00] Right we are hopping into a Zeekeel chapter 46 or is I like to refer to him affectionately? Easy Kyle. All right let's do it. You know what's the easiest thing we're almost That's really great because honestly this last little bit here the Torah. Yeah,

[00:03:19] Zeekeel is really kind of pissing me off with all the Torah. Yeah yeah yeah. You have too much Torah in your Torah. Yeah speaking of which a reminder that the final section

[00:03:35] of a Zeekeel chapter 40 through 48 which we are in the midst of are often referred to as the Torah of Zeekeel. Yeah and they're holding up to their end for good reason yes yes so

[00:03:48] we are going to read the book. Read the book um we are continuing on in this section the ordinances of the temple. Okay all right so now this like rule is yes the temple of course

[00:04:04] of the temple yeah so it's just a continuation of where we were yesterday or Friday. I feel like I feel like a Zeekeel spent too much time reading Leviticus and he needed to get his head out of the

[00:04:17] ass out of his ass. The ass? The ass, Amy ass really. He was talking ass. Yeah and he needed to read some other more fun shit like I mean there's so many other books that would have been so much more

[00:04:28] fun to read. Didn't we like Esther? It's study then then Leviticus but here we are reading the Zeekeel and he's just like basically reiterating all of Leviticus in his own little version

[00:04:38] of it. His like um you guys I saw like this crazy for a phased guy and he like was on wheels with wings and eyes and I was crazy. Oh but now 2 plus 2 is 4. 4 plus 4 is 8 8 plus 8 is 16 16 plus 16 is 3.

[00:05:01] What I'm seeing here is like this is the guy that has mental issues his whole life. You know see all kinds of things crazy. Everybody thinks he's crazy and then all of a sudden he's like

[00:05:13] he's telling us you know all this ancient you know conspiracy theory we got to go back to our roots or everything so we go bad. You know it's just it's I can see who this guy is in today's world

[00:05:25] like I met this guy. I met this guy. Is he your prepper? I mean maybe he's a kind of flatterer. I'm possibly yeah I was thinking we're like you're crazy uncle you know. So he's your

[00:05:36] he's your big foot believer. Sure maybe not flatter but definitely big foot and questions whether we land it on the moon or not. Yeah doesn't take an stance but is open to the possibility.

[00:05:48] Yeah yeah that guy. He's not like Mago like conspiracy theory but he's conspiracy theory adjacent. Right I don't know I think this guy might be full on conspiracy theory really. I mean he's

[00:06:04] seeing fucking shit and then I mean we just got visions but we just got through saying that he's big foot but not flatter. You said that I he's building fucking temples and there's got the

[00:06:14] him head and my my version. Okay so what the fuck says guy doing? He is flat earth. He definitely questions whether we landed on the moon. Right that's kind of where I was. Okay that's

[00:06:26] for us. Sorry I misunderstood you said crazy uncle and I was like all that guy. I mean I mean because it depends on his personality but he's all Maca all the time. It seems that way. So

[00:06:42] I don't want to hug that because it's basically hugging a Nazi. You're not about it. Right. Punch a Nazi in the weiner. You know how I feel about rehabilitation. You are really big on

[00:06:54] that because you are a good person. I however am a cunt and I'm just trying to live my best life and figure out all my mental health issues one pill at a time. Right. Right. And I cannot I don't have

[00:07:09] time to spare for rehab. For other people when I'm trying to rehab myself. Okay that's fair. That's right. You know? Yeah. We all got to take care of us first. You got to put your mask on first

[00:07:21] when you're on the plane. Yeah. Or else you'll die. Sure I mean you're gonna die anyway if you're on the plane and it's going down. Well okay but you know they see when the mask is dropped you put your own

[00:07:32] oxygen mask on first before you tell your story is that you don't know you die when you die. Are you serious? Yeah. Don't tell me shit like this. Is that what honestly? It's pure oxygen. Yeah but I thought

[00:07:46] it was like for turbulence like when shit is going really bad but like you're still flying. No all of the shit that they give you to do when the plane's going down it's just to make you feel better

[00:07:56] and if you're something to do and not panic. Oh yeah you're so I mean you really you know. So really what I ought to be doing is getting out my phone and texting everybody I love you

[00:08:08] Yeah and please feed the camera to be fair that the mask might help you from past now but in the end it doesn't really matter so maybe I want to pass out before I probably do. I think

[00:08:18] you know if I was gonna yeah that might be better way. Oh I can't that's oh plane crash no no no no okay this is what the software Lord says. Yeah the gate of the inner court facing east

[00:08:33] you know the one that God left by early on and then he came back by it. Yes, you know because he's all about that east. Right. I'm all about that east about that east. No.

[00:08:46] I don't know no. No. I know what you're doing. I know what you're doing. No I'm a wear. What's your name? I can train her. Yeah okay. I'm aware of what you were doing. I just didn't agree

[00:08:57] with it. You didn't agree with it. You didn't believe in it or you just didn't like it. I wasn't feeling it. Okay all right so anyway he's all about the east and that is gonna be shut on the six

[00:09:10] working days but on the Sabbath day and on the day of the new moon because we're picking up in this edge it is to be opened okay go in it but it's open. All right okay. Oh you know why

[00:09:22] so that God can go out and take a leak. Right. And then come back in and hold it for another week. Yeah because he doesn't have to show up because he's gonna be there because he's in the temps. Yeah

[00:09:30] so yeah he's gotta go out and yeah. You've got to stretch a little bit there and then and then they're like get back in your box God. The prince is to enter from the outside through the

[00:09:42] Puerto Rico of the Gateway and stands by the gatepost and let us not forget that the prince is the king. Okay use well Zikill uses those terms interchangeably. Right. Right. The priest are to sacrifice his burnt offering and his fellowship offering. Okay. He is the bow down and

[00:10:02] worship at the threshold of the gateway and then go out but the gate will not be shut until evening. Okay okay I have a correction to make. Oh yeah. Yeah I was because there was a movie that I

[00:10:14] loved. I said that the oxygen max masks on the plane just give you a sense of euphoria. According to Google that's not true and it's just been something that's been popularized by the

[00:10:25] movie Fight Club which is where I got it from. Oh my god you were so I thought you were to me. You were misleading regardless. So definitely put your fucking mask on you guys. I have to remember that

[00:10:36] mean but like there is some sense of like the past. The tasks you're doing are just keeping you busy as you're plummeting to your death. Okay but maybe you're not plummeting to your death.

[00:10:49] It's just really bad turbulence. Maybe an engine went out and then bloop bloop it kicks back on. You don't know you don't know every plane. You haven't tested every bowing to make sure that all the doors are on wrong. Honestly they didn't either. I know.

[00:11:08] So anyway mask up bitches. Yeah yeah. All right on the Sabbath and new moons again because we're pagan. Right. The people of the land are to worship in the presence of the Lord at the entrance

[00:11:23] of that gateway. Because when he comes back my straw is going to hang it out there. Mm hmm. Okay. All right. Yeah. The burnt offering the Prince brings to the Lord on the Sabbath day is to be

[00:11:34] six male lambs and a ram all without defects. I am only the best for God. I'm curious here because we built this whole fucking temple. We built this temple. Yeah with all places a sacrifice and eat

[00:11:47] shit in right? Mm hmm. And God lives there in the whole whole the whole van. Right. But now on the Sabbath we're going to go out to the gate to sacrifice it and give it to the Lord. But there's a altar out there.

[00:11:59] There's an altar at that gate. But why why what's the temple for them? And our sand is that like why do we have a temple if we're just going to do all this shit over at the gate? Because making

[00:12:10] your sacrifices at the altar is different from all your other godly duties that you're doing. But there was also an altar in the temple. Right. But they do different remember like early on and look at it. It's like sometimes they put the blood on this and sometimes

[00:12:28] they put the blood on that. Like they have these cute little like daily planners. Yeah rituals. Like okay this is my morning ritual. This is my evening ritual. This is my sacrifice at the

[00:12:41] East Gate ritual. Like they just they know what they're doing. They have planners. All right. Okay. All right. And they just do their thing at different altars on different days. Okay. It makes it special.

[00:12:54] I bet if it's raining this day inside. I bet that you're right. The green offering given with the ram is to be in EFA and the green offering with the lambs is to be as much as he pleases.

[00:13:07] No. Along with a hint of olive oil for each EFA. I see some measuring units. I'm going to be looking up for a kidney. Right. Yeah. On the day of the new moon because we're pagan,

[00:13:20] he is to offer a young bowl six lambs and a ram all without defect. Okay. All right. He is to provide as a green offering one EFA with the bowl, one EFA with the ram. And what the lambs is

[00:13:35] much as he wants to give along with a hint of oil for each EFA. We should really put out there like conversion kit. Oh yeah. And what's the other fucking measurements we came to come in and

[00:13:47] hands but there was something else. Rods and whatever. Yeah. We should have like a we should have a biblical conversion like if you want to build something biblically. Oh my God. There's your conversion kit. Yeah. That equals that. That equals this. It's funny too because you'd have to

[00:14:01] I'm sure there's probably one out there somewhere but you'd have to like not just include miles and plummeters and rain. Right. Right. Can we fair to the you know the U.S. is the only idiocy still used the fucking you know imperial systems. Yeah. Like science and

[00:14:19] not. We just still use it because we're you know because we can't let it go. We don't want to make math great again. I want to make math great again. I want us to go to space.

[00:14:33] That would I mean we've been there but yeah. I want to continue our space program. We should be so much further along with that whole thing that it's kind of absurd how much we regret. Yes.

[00:14:44] Since our space program started. Yes. So we should be so far exploring and we should have the beginnings of a moon base. I'm not saying we should have a moon base. But it should be yeah.

[00:14:56] We should have like some supplies and yeah. Yeah. Experiments and stuff like I don't know. There should be all kinds of stuff. I agree. We should be planning our first long-term manned missions to various places. And we kind of are doing that like we have missions planned

[00:15:15] to Mars and stuff but yeah. But it's yeah you're right. We we we are very lacking in our ambition to get to various places in space. Why do we not have that ambition? Why don't we want

[00:15:27] a go learn C. B. Do because it was never about science. It was about war. And it's nice. It's still like no we aren't we don't do things because they're the right and interesting thing to do. We do

[00:15:39] things because we want to kill other people and that's been obviously since the beginning of time as noted in the Bible. This is why we can't have nice things. Yeah right. We can Bible.

[00:15:52] It just makes me sad. We could be so much better. Like our healthcare. You know like we could supply health for every person on this planet. If we or things got our shit together.

[00:16:03] By yeah it just makes no fucking sense. We could at least do a very much better job than we currently do. Sure. Now I'm going to go so far as I say everybody but definitely a lot better.

[00:16:14] Yeah it's grotesque. Okay. Anyway when the prince who has no problem with healthcare and isn't thinking about space when he enters he is to go in through the Puerto Go of the gateway. I love

[00:16:28] the word Puerto Go and he is to come out the same way. Okay don't get lost. Right. Come out the way you came in. When the people of the land come before the Lord at the appointed festivals whoever

[00:16:40] enters by the North Gate to worship is to go out the South Gate and whoever enters by the South Gate is to go out the North Gate. So they've got like this flow of traffic. Okay so if you

[00:16:53] came in one you got to go out the other or some shit like that. Yeah yeah. So I'd have to see like a fire escape map you know how like when you are in important buildings like office buildings and stuff

[00:17:07] they always have like the fire path like here is the nearest fire exit from the room. Yeah that's what I mean. I wonder what the purpose was for that because there were so many people they

[00:17:16] were directing traffic literally. Okay. It was just to keep the flow of traffic so that to be fair this this temple doesn't actually exist and so these things never actually happened.

[00:17:26] This is all directing traffic in as he kills head. Well yes and no um this specific temple did not exist but there were other temples that had similar traffic flow like. I'm good with

[00:17:40] there being similar temples but this is specific. No you're right you're right. This is the heals temple we're discussing how to manage the traffic at the temple that never existed. Okay but

[00:17:49] to be fair to me you asked a question why and I gave you a very logical answer based on the information that we have. I suppose you just want to be personality. No I'm I'm merely

[00:18:03] pointing out this is all in the fuckers head. No it is you're right. That's not it. One hundred percent yes I'm with you okay. No one is to return through the gate by which they entered but each

[00:18:13] is to go out the opposite gate. God dammit. Yeah did did I see you come in the south and now you're trying to sneak out the south? What have you dropped something out the you know like you'd let

[00:18:24] go back out and get it or are you kind of like fucked until like the day after Sabbath. You just yell hey hey that's it. I'm all out there. Hey George. On your way out can you go ahead and drop it over

[00:18:37] just grab it for me and I'll meet you out on the because whatever over there because this bitch is several acres so you'd have to walk all the way around. Well that's depending on which measurements

[00:18:46] for you. Right I'm just saying you'd have to walk all the way around it to get to the other side to go in the correct door. Like if the traffic was heavy enough don't you think you could get away

[00:18:58] with sneaking back in. I think you but but we're assuming that God's keeping track what you're doing too right. These are directions on how to internet exit the fucking temple that are directed

[00:19:10] by a Zeekeel from God. You really want to break the way that you internet exit the temple. I mean that we're directly told to you by a Zeekeel who told was told by God. Me as an atheist.

[00:19:22] Right. Yeah but me in the time of a Zeekeel where I'm still probably an atheist because I'm just like that. Sure. And I ask questions but I don't want to get killed or raped. Right. Right. Yeah I probably would have. Oh that reminds me of a conversation

[00:19:39] somebody was having on I for you. It might have been Instagram I'm not really sure but they were like you ate the Israel the same you should get up on a stage and then

[00:19:51] just pronounce that you don't believe in God up there and see what happens and I'm like we've been doing it on our podcast for four years. Right. And I'll like and more over and I

[00:20:01] link to it. I said we did have a live where we got up on stage for an hour. Yeah. Yeah. Said that we didn't believe in God and we're still fucking here dude.

[00:20:09] And we attended a free thinking, a free thought convention and there were plenty of atheists and agnostic on stage there. Yeah moreover you can find plenty of atheists and agnostic on stage all over YouTube. Right. They're all over the fucking place. It's not something unique.

[00:20:27] Yeah. It happens all the time. Yeah. I just I hear it with it. I'm like what is yes people we have ideas we say the ideas God doesn't strike us down. Because there's no fucking God dude and besides even if there were he seems to not really

[00:20:44] give a shit. Right. So right. You know part of being an atheist is admitting that we don't everything. Sure. Everything, right? Obviously. We have a very strong not even sneaking pretty sure suspicion that God is not fucking real. Right. We do not believe in higher power.

[00:21:04] Yeah. That is essentially our stance but but if God came down and told me directly I am here and I am God. And I've been proven wrong. I'm wrong. You know we've said it before we have zero

[00:21:21] problem being proven wrong. The right and wrong of it like being right is not our goal. You know what I mean? Yeah. Having the correct information is the goal. Right. And if that means

[00:21:33] that we're wrong okay. And why can't we just be honest you fuckers are taking your direction from people who are hurting sheep and ancient fucking the ancient Middle East. Right. Yeah. And

[00:21:44] there's no basis to believe any of this shit. Yeah. And that's why we read this thing the way we do because even if we get our facts a little bit off occasionally and we don't do it intentionally.

[00:21:57] It's we're genuinely trying to understand this thing and we're genuinely trying to read it with the best you know thought process we can must drop as we're going through it. Given that we were not

[00:22:07] raised in religion and have never read any of this. But but there's no there is no reason. There's no proof. There's no basis for taking any of this information and saying that it's true. Other than

[00:22:23] the texts that were reading, there is nothing else. Yeah. And I can't that that's why I can't take any of this real seriously. It's just ancient texts and I wouldn't. I could take it seriously as a

[00:22:40] piece of literature that existed. Right. If we didn't still have to like pretend like if most was in that pretend like we somehow abide by these laws and rules because of social pressures to be

[00:22:53] Christian or to be whatever. Right. You know, that's the bullshitty part. Yeah. Yeah. Sorry. And I know here's my tangent for today. So the princess is to be among them going in when they go in and

[00:23:09] going out and they go out. Yeah. Let's do three go. Okay. Okay. And at the feast and the appointed festivals. So we're talking about all them. On the red things and all the things, the shelters and what exactly.

[00:23:24] Yeah. The green offering is to be in e-fo with a bull and e-fo with a ram and with the lands as much as it pleases along with the hand of oil for E. J.pa. Okay. All right. Yep. Don't forget your own. I like how they say

[00:23:35] as much as he pleases because like that, that strikes me as but I bet he's holding some back from itself. That was that was that bit where I was like, you know, I'm a bit of some leeway there somewhere.

[00:23:45] You know, when the prince provides a free will offering to the Lord whether a burnt offering or fellowship gate facing east is to be opened for him. Okay. Okay. He shall offer his burnt offering or

[00:24:00] his fellowship offerings as he does on the Sabbath day. So these are the ones that's of the gates to be opened on these non-sabeth days that are festivals when he's doing these specific tribute to whatever the fuck they are, the offerings, right? Yeah. So that's interesting. Yeah.

[00:24:19] Kind of, I get it. It's another ritual. It's another practice. It's another thing. Yep. But okay. All right. It's another thing to jot down in your planner. Yeah. Then he shall go out and after he is going

[00:24:31] out the gate will be shot. Okay. You should that get you? Yeah. Every day you are to provide a year old lamb without defect. Right. That's a lot of fucking lambs for a burnt offering to the Lord.

[00:24:44] Morning by morning you shall provide it. Wow. That is a lot of fucking lambs. How do they not make the lamb population like not exist? Well, there's there was also a lot of fucking lambs.

[00:24:56] They were feeding the people. So I mean that clothing feed like there was they were taking care there was a lot of lambs. Okay. Like how do we have enough cows to feed all the fucking Americans

[00:25:07] of one hamburgers? There's a lot of fucking cows. All right. That's fair. That's fair. Okay. I'm just like one every day though. Like where do you keep them all? I don't know.

[00:25:18] 365, you know? That's a lot of fucking sheep. It's really not the when the grand scheme of things. It's kind of like it's kind of like in movies where the dude says to the woman he's willing.

[00:25:31] I'm going to send you a thousand roses. Yeah. But then when when the yeah. Sorry. When the when the person like the director is putting it together. Yeah, it looks like it's only about

[00:25:48] two dozen. Right. So he has to do much more than a thousand roses to make it look like. So it's actually more like you know 10,000 roses or something like that. Right. So I just

[00:26:01] like have a really hard time picturing, you know. Right. What it actually is. I have rose syndrome. You are also to provide with it morning by morning a grain offering.

[00:26:17] Would I would call coffee? All right. I need a cup of it. Oh, it's not grain. I just need a cup of coffee every day. They say morning by morning. I say coffee. This seems like this is the priest or King's

[00:26:29] breakfast. You know, consisting of a six six six six six. Yeah. Of an e-Fa with a third of a hint of oil to moisten the flower. Okay. I don't like the word moist. No. The presenting of

[00:26:44] this grain offering to the Lord is a lasting ordinance. It's a forever law. Don't you fucking forget it. Okay? So the lamb and the green offering and the oil shall be provided morning by morning

[00:26:57] for a regular burnt offering. Mm-hmm. One of the silver. I doubt it. They never do that. It seems all these things that they've been listening off in this last bit of Zee Yo,

[00:27:07] seemed very grifty. Like it's very fucking gritty. Oh yeah. We've talked about that last week. Yeah. Very grifty more over you pointed out. Doesn't like the coming of Jesus make all this shit and

[00:27:19] all envoys. Yeah. So like what? There's no point in making this temple at this point to the Christians. There's no point to the Jewish people. They would think no, there is still very much reason. Right. And through the Christians, they're like, don't impact us, non-bago-hag, go ahead

[00:27:38] because we really like it when your prophecy happens so that our religion can kick start. Well, but the Christians do still believe that this temple has to be built because it's part of their

[00:27:48] prophecy as well. It's just so weird. So it's our religion, I know we keep saying this. Our religion depends on your religion. So as soon as your religion does its thing then our religion

[00:28:00] will start shooting off the fireworks. Yeah. Like that just makes no fucking sense. Yeah. And then like Islam is out there going, what do we do? Right. Do we fit in any is there anything waiting on us?

[00:28:15] They just created something kind of different. Yeah. I had read a little bit about it. I'm really interested if we get there because they have some really interesting stories. Yeah, I mean,

[00:28:25] I think we would be really bored in the beginning of the Quran because there's going to be a lot of repeat because the old testament stuff, there's a lot of the old testament stuff in the

[00:28:34] Quran. Yeah, but some of it is like different, like it's the same people, but hey from a different perspective or I don't know. I'm just, I'm really interested. Yeah. So whatever, two religion sharing one

[00:28:47] book is just so weird and then you've got that other one that's like we got some of the mean characters but we're like non-canon. That's funny. Oh, it just be my sofa. Okay. This is what the

[00:29:01] sovereign Lord says. Okay. If the prince makes a gift from his inheritance, oh we're moving on to to land shit. Okay. Yeah. If the prince makes a gift from his inheritance to one of his sons,

[00:29:12] it will also belong to his descendants. It is to be their property by inheritance. Got it. If, however, he makes a gift from his inheritance to one of his servants, the servant may keep it

[00:29:25] until the year of freedom, meaning the end of the tribulation. Yeah. What's that called? Right. No, I know what you're talking about. It was the seven-year thing. Yeah. But that's interesting because we had also learned that the time they were talking about the Zika that they celebrated,

[00:29:41] that that, what is that? That's the word. Jubilation. Yeah. Not tribulation. Yeah. That time they celebrated there might have been the the very last time that that was ever celebrated. So it's interesting that it's brought up in that man. He's like we're going back to Jubilations.

[00:29:57] But I do have a, I do have a problem with the fact that the kings are allowed to give land and these God given areas. I actually have some notes about this, so do you want me to get into it

[00:30:10] in a or do you want me to get into it now? Go ahead and give into it now. Okay because there were some interesting things about it that I was like okay hang on. Right. Hold on. I've got next chapter

[00:30:24] notes clogging up my hair. Yeah. I'm just while you're looking. My biggest problem with the whole kings are allowed to give their sons and then descendants all get this land is that God has

[00:30:36] dispersed in his land to the kings. And then if there's a new king that's from a different group, what do they just keep divvying up this land or what's the deal? Um,

[00:30:46] hang on like I said let me find what I'm looking for because I did read something about it. Okay. Inheritons given to sons and to servants in order blah, blah, no that's not it. Okay.

[00:30:57] Um, if he made a similar gift to one of his servants the land returned to the king at the year of Jubilee. This ensured that the royal family retained possession of its land hold on

[00:31:09] before you jump in and that the king was not tempted to seize other people's land to compensate for what he gave away. So like if he gives one of his servants or best buds or whatever some land,

[00:31:24] like he might walk up to some you know poor schmo and be like your land is mine now because I just gave some away over here. So this is more politics than like to appease the king or

[00:31:35] well to keep the kings and check and be like you can give land away to whoever you want to, but they don't get to keep it past the seven years than whatever. Yeah. And you know you might as

[00:31:45] well keep it in the family because I come back to family anyway. This is all you get. I see that that is a way to handle it. But then at the same time, um, if that family just decides to keep

[00:31:58] gifting it they still might want to re-coup land somewhere else because they just like yeah these people are cool and they get this land indefinitely in each king you know on down the line keeps giving

[00:32:08] them that land right? And then they're like well but we want some more land so we're just going to take some more you know what I mean? I don't see how that really stops them. It just gives them

[00:32:16] control to kick them out if they want to. Yeah and also it gives the priests a little bit of I don't want to say power over the king but it's almost a checks and balance where

[00:32:28] they have something to hold against him. Right. Like to pull them up short and be like well King. You can't take this land because technically you haven't really given this land to anybody.

[00:32:38] It's just you know loaned. Yeah. So get off that other fucking land because you still have that. Or conversely, um hey we were going to do this but unless you give land to so and so up until

[00:32:54] Jubilee we're not going to do that. Right but you do you are I mean I'm sure our listeners are also aware of how sex works and you know when kings and other people generally speaking fuck

[00:33:06] they they create more kids. They do. Yeah and so and then when that next generation fucks some more they also create more kids and it's like exponential growth. Right. That's right. So if these kings

[00:33:18] keep giving land away to their kids eventually that land also disappears that way. True. So that is true. I'm just saying there's no way that this all works out in a very long term scheme.

[00:33:31] It's not that the land disappears. It's the same land but there's less of it to go around so it's more crowded. Right so the land didn't disappear. Let's say that first king when they build this new

[00:33:46] temple gives away like you know five acres to his first son right? Mm hmm. Well that's five acres that that family then has. Right but it's still in the family so like it's not. Yeah when you get

[00:33:59] 20 generations on do you really give a fuck who is in that first generation? No you don't even know who the fuck they were. Right. Doesn't matter anymore you probably don't even hardly know who

[00:34:07] how you got to where you are. You just happen to have this land over here that somebody in the disinpassed gave you. Right. That's all. I don't know how it all works because I don't get it. It just

[00:34:17] it doesn't work for very long. That's all. It's not great. It's not good long term thing. These are short yeah this is a short term fix for not whatever it is. It's a short term fix for greed. Yeah

[00:34:30] is what it really comes down to. Right. Land grabs. So anyway the king his inheritance belongs to his sons only it is theirs. The prince must not take any of the inheritance of the people driving them

[00:34:43] off their property. He is to give his sons their inheritance out of his own property so that not one of my people will be separated from their property. Okay. I mean I'm sure that didn't work out

[00:34:56] perfectly. Well it hasn't worked out at all because it's still never you know never right. I'm sort of this all out in my head if they reads like it's happening like the like we're even

[00:35:05] about a history. I know but it's not a history. It's still a vision so yeah I know so it's like it's like it's like it's reading like kings or chronicles. And then this is gonna happen and we're doing

[00:35:15] this. You'll see he'll got the drug riddle dream. Right. This is really gonna piss you off or at least it pissed me off. Like remember on Friday when I or no it was on Saturday in the Q&A and I had brought

[00:35:30] up who's that golden man, right? Yeah. And then I was like and this is the last mention of him because according to my notes it was. Oh but there aren't words to him again. Guess what? He's right here.

[00:35:39] Then the man brought me through the entrance. Oh okay. At the side of the gate to the sacred room spacing north. Okay. And I'm like, because that's kind of like a random reintroduction to

[00:35:52] I'm being like like we're not we haven't really been discussing it doesn't I don't feel like we're in the vision right now. Yeah it feels like disgusting. Like a report instead of a dream. Yeah.

[00:36:02] I see how that one could easily be bypassed as a mention of the angel or whatever the fuck it is. But I saw that when I was in my notes and I was like hang on a second. Right. Yeah so my notes betrayed

[00:36:13] me. Yeah. Fuckers. Okay. Secret rooms facing north which belonged to the priest and the man showed me a place at the western end. Okay. He said to me, okay. So he talking Gold Guy talking.

[00:36:28] That's the first. Okay. Gold brass bronze if you listen to our Saturday Q&A you will know what I'm talking about right? Oh I guess he probably was talking before but we didn't he didn't really say it

[00:36:41] out loud because he'd be having to give you know measurements and shit so yeah. He probably was talking before but. So anyway now he says to me he says he says this is the place where the priest

[00:36:51] started cook the guilt offering and the sin offering and baked the grain offering to avoid bringing them into the outer court and consecrating the yeah consecrating the people. So they got to keep

[00:37:04] their materials clean and people who are not quote unquote clean. Yeah. Can not defile the materials. Right. Which code for this is the priest's meal. Well yeah that's all and then none of those

[00:37:19] fuckers out there give any of it. Sure. Okay. He then brought me to the outer court and led me around to its four corners. That's a lot of acres you walk in. If we're to believe. If

[00:37:30] it was measured in. Um, rods, it's done. Keep it. Yeah. Let me around the four corners and I saw an each corner another court like a tennis court? No. No. Not like a food court probably. Food

[00:37:46] court. Oh, a panda express. Well that mean they were really about food in these times right? These these temples were all about slaughtering animals and eating food in special sacred ways

[00:37:59] that was supposedly being done for God. So I mean it could very easily be like some sort of a sacred food food court. Okay. Um, I'm just saying the next time we go to a food I mean God has been

[00:38:11] ages since we've been to a mall. Yeah. But the next time some year if we visit a food court, we should bring some candles and we should like chant like monks. Yeah. And we should have stones.

[00:38:26] We should have one of our first like gatherings as a like for like our podcast at a mall food court. Oh my god that'd be funny. That would be hilarious. I called dibs on the Chinese food like

[00:38:38] if somebody in our group gets there before me, you have to let me cut in line. My favorite thing at food court is when they're like passionate about the free samples. I love this. It's so great.

[00:38:47] I love that. And okay, I am such a trash human because I love the barrow. Yeah. And nobody supposed to love that I guess but I do because I love cheese and bread and pizza. Right. Which is

[00:39:00] cheese and bread. I mean I think that if you love pizza, you know, and you're not real picky then it doesn't really fucking matter where you get it from. I think Swaro is fan-fucking-tastic. And I was having a discussion with somebody today who agrees with me 100 percent

[00:39:16] that or no was last night that a Chuckie cheese has really good pizza. I think they are pretty good pizza. They do. Yeah. I mean, I'm always weary about eating that because you're there with a bunch of

[00:39:32] kids and I'm like what the fuck has happened to this pizza since it got sat down. Well yeah. And I have a problem with that and birthday cake for the same reasons. No, it's true. It's true.

[00:39:42] It's so funny because you might get bugger, you know? No, it's true. Yeah. Or, you know, COVID spit. Right. It's so funny because with regard to our kids, like you got over that whole

[00:39:52] hicc factor with them. Yes, that's what I'm saying but like it did not go away. No. You just got used to our kids. Right. And you're like, oh, they're not Iki. Yeah, just my dear family is a

[00:40:03] media family but like when you get beyond that, I'm still worried about the boogers. So no, I don't I mean it's funny because if it was our kids you'd be like well, I eat one of my kids boogers.

[00:40:14] You know what though? I know my kids would not put a booger on there. That's true. And they never, they weren't our kids were not ones that would reach and just put their hands in

[00:40:23] fucking food for them. Yeah, they weren't grabby. So like so many kids are so grabby. It wasn't as much of a concern. Yeah. You know, but whatever it is what it is.

[00:40:33] Why are we talking about this? How do you get here? Because it's really boring what we're talking on the wise. We're trying so hard to like how can I have fun in my life? Like not with this.

[00:40:45] Yeah. Okay. In the four corners of the outer food court just kidding. The outer court yeah. We're enclosed courts 40 qubits long and 30 qubits wide or rods who the foot knows, but our translation says qubits. Sure. Each of the courts in the four corners was the same size

[00:41:02] around the inside of, around the outside, around the outside just kidding. Around the inside of each of the four courts was a ledge of stone with places for fire built all around the ledge all around

[00:41:15] under the ledge. Okay. Fire. Yeah. He said to me, these are the kitchens where those who minister at the temples are to cook the sacrifices of the people. The end. Oh. Okay. That was a

[00:41:27] process. They're not food courts. They're kitchen courts. Mm-hmm. Okay. This is where they cook their shit. Just like those big fires that were around the edges. There's just big barbecue pits apparently. Yeah. So basically I mean honestly that could be kind of cool. It could. You know what?

[00:41:42] We have this festival around here called the pork festival. Mm-hmm. Yeah. I'm probably counting. Yeah. And high-o. Everywhere you go there, there's somebody with like a big long grill cooking in the chops and actually one of my grandparents when I was younger used to him and his church

[00:41:59] had a booth there every year and they would cook pork chops. So I went there a couple of years to help out and it was one of the greatest things ever because you're sitting there cooking pork chops and occasionally

[00:42:10] maybe a little more often than needed to happen. One would hit the grass. Oh no. And I know. And you can't sell that one so I knew. You gotta eat it and you got to damage it out. It's true.

[00:42:23] It's true. You just can't sell that to other people but it was tragic. It was really tragic. I love the Pro-Wlc County pork festival. My first experience with it when I first moved here

[00:42:36] to Ohio back in the end of 2000 so I've lived here. It feels like forever and still new. Great, right? But there was this Acupella band that I traveled. Tonic Soltha. Yeah. And they're still on YouTube but they were ahead of their time like...

[00:42:52] I actually always get them confused with that. Penet on it. Penet on it. Yeah. Yeah. That's that. So but yeah. Tonic Soltha is ahead of their time because they were doing it. It was so popular.

[00:43:03] Like they were doing a lot of covers. They were putting out albums and like it just seemed like they couldn't quite get the traction. Right. And then like Penetonix hit. And it was like quampwamp. Yeah.

[00:43:15] There's only room for one, you know. Occupella band. Yeah. Like where the exception. Yeah. They were pretty good. They were really good and they had like a comedy kind of thing. Like they were very talented and they were funny. They were great showmen. And they were

[00:43:30] cesspool, if I recall. They were like walk around the pork festival and stuff. Yeah. They were very friendly. They made fun a little bit of the pork fest being such a like hit country. Yeah. Yeah.

[00:43:45] Because like they're used to playing in like Coliseum, like California. Right. And then they calm you know to the Midwest pork fast. And it's true. No. I mean, probably kind of is definitely...

[00:43:58] I mean, this is like the place where they've got tractor pools. Yeah. And yeah we had those when I grew in a town called Farmer's home. We had tractor pools out of it and we had we had to

[00:44:09] catch pig grease pigs. You know like that was a thing. Yeah. Like the country is really you guys. The country is real. Yeah. Yeah. It's you can literally drive down a road and get caught behind

[00:44:20] a tractor. Oh yeah all the time. And you can legitimately tell your boss. I'm so sorry as later I was caught behind a tractor. Yep. And it tracks like they're like of course. Well,

[00:44:31] it tracks if you don't live if you're not going to work in a city. Sure. No, but I mean like if you if you are going to work in the middle of dating but they know that you live out in the country

[00:44:42] and you say I got caught behind a tractor coming in they will believe you. If they know anything about the country. Yeah. It depends on who you're talking to. There are people who are strictly

[00:44:53] city around here. No, I know. But there are also people there are a lot of people live in this you know country. So it's it is what it is. I have to say like this this sounds so crazy.

[00:45:04] Like there are actually gangs in Dayton. Like not a lot not hard core but like there there is some gang activity here. Okay. But I can't take it seriously for two reasons. And like I know right like

[00:45:20] a gun's a gun and you can get shot regardless of how seriously you take it. Right? Like the gun doesn't care about your fucking feelings dumbass. Sure. Okay, but here's two reasons I cannot take

[00:45:31] Dayton gang seriously. Okay. You drive 20 minutes in any direction and you're in a fucking corn field with signs pointing you to the corn maze and fresh produce and a cook too much or I

[00:45:47] grew too many cucumbers. Free tomatoes take them. Yeah, right. So I'm like really gangs really 20 minutes out and it's all country. Okay. That's the one thing. The other thing is that okay I lived in

[00:46:01] San Antonio and they got some fucking good things out there. Okay. So I'm just saying like deans cuten all. Not sure how we got on the subject gangs here. I'm just look I'm just saying like corn fields.

[00:46:16] Sure. That's what we're talking about. That's a great correlation. Yeah, because all like I think it's like you drive out the city 20 minutes in any direction and you're in the corn field. It's true. It is true.

[00:46:30] I'm definitely definitely as the case. The country is real. It is. All right guys, I think we have about killed this episode. Yeah, I'm so sorry. I'm a little tired and looping. So that was a Zeciel chapter

[00:46:41] 46. It sure spoke was, which means that we'll be back tomorrow with a Zeciel chapter 47. All right. We'll see it then. Wait. Do you remember what happened yesterday and where the hell we are today? Well,

[00:47:02] yesterday we read a Zeciel chapter 46. We just booked it. Yeah. And in that chapter we were reading about God and how he was creating entrance and exit plans to the temple. And we read a

[00:47:16] about how there is a special room inside the temple where the priest get to put on their special eating clothes and they get to go there and he separate from those dirty people that are outside the walls.

[00:47:29] So that was exciting. There's special eating clothes. I don't know why you didn't. You remember how they had to take off? No, it's so bloody. It is funny. They had to put on their bibs. Yeah.

[00:47:40] Look, I feel like I'm imagining much more than that but I mean my mind is going crazy with that so I'll just let you guys come up with your own idea this to how that work. And this is the

[00:47:50] shirt I wear when I'm eating and then this is the shirt I wear when I'm done and I'm washing dishes and then this is the shirt that you like this one. You know what? I wear when I'm pooping. Yeah,

[00:48:02] yeah, pooping shirt. I want to see everybody's and send a link whatever social media you're on with us. I want to see a picture of your eating clothes. What are your eating clothes to us?

[00:48:11] Send me your favorite eating clothes guys. I want to see it. Yeah. Unless it's a nude picture. I don't want to see that. No, no, no. No shame. Just I don't want to see it. It's not for me.

[00:48:22] Right. That's for you and your people. That's not for me. Yeah. Yeah. No, no. Um, and that was just about it. That was about it. There wasn't a whole lot to it. I mean they

[00:48:33] were they they do some worshiping on the new moon and you know, pagan bullshit and ritual fucking sacrifice and blah, blah, blah same shit. This guy's having a little bit of kiss. So

[00:48:43] except for now that we have entrance next at Plans on special eating rooms with special eating clothes. Yes. So that was as Ekeel chapter 46. Yes. Which means that today we're getting into Esekeel chapter 47. All right. Let's do this. Okay. Okay. Okay.

[00:49:02] Oh, right. We are hopping into Esekeel chapter 47. Okay. Where is I affectionately call him Esekeel? That's right. Although he's anything but easy. This Kyle is difficult and crazy. Yeah. He is not an easy Kyle. No. Of all the Kyle's I know he's the least easy. You know what?

[00:49:23] I will say he is easy to dismiss. Easily, easily scorned. The the ideas that we've come across in this book, right? And I know I know how this ties into the the New Testament in certain ways.

[00:49:39] Like I don't know the full breadth of what that means but I do know that it is very important. But as we're reading through this I'm like this is stupid guys. I'm like, oh Kyle. Yeah.

[00:49:51] Oh Kyle. So I whatever it it's it's dumb. That's all that's all. Somebody's in a moon. You know we we this is the funny thing to me almost every episode that we ever start

[00:50:04] we're like this fucking book sucks and we still have lots of fans in the book. Really popular as a podcast. I'm like we don't do a great job at selling access. I hate this book. Okay. Let's read it.

[00:50:16] This book is horrible. Okay next chapter. I think it's just like people watching a train wreck. You know like they don't even know how bad it's gonna get. Or it's like when you're eating something

[00:50:28] in your like oh this is disgusting taste it. That's what it's like. Okay we are in the final chapters. Um headed to the end we are in the penultimate chapter. Mm-hmm. It's been second to last. Okay. All right.

[00:50:44] And let us never forget that the final section of a Zeekeel chapters 40 through 48 are off and refer to as the Torah of easy Kyle. You know I think if they hadn't come up with that name themselves

[00:50:58] that wouldn't have been something that we would have come up with because it is very obvious that this is very much like Leviticus. This is so Leviticile. Yeah. I like that. I think it should be renamed

[00:51:10] Leviticile. It is. That's awesome. I just named it that. Yeah, yeah. Just there in my little brain soul. Yeah. All right let's get into this we are gonna learn about water today. Mm-hmm. Okay. Special life. We're gonna learn about water okay. Yeah. Okay ready? I'm ready.

[00:51:25] More mention of the man. Okay. I'm so pissed at the note that he just disappears. We never hear from him again. Yeah they lied. They did. Like I'm gonna track down that note and be like no

[00:51:37] uh right? Yeah. They're gonna be like okay. Right. Like and then. Yeah. Who you called me out you atheist. Yeah. Got damn it. All right so the man, the golden man you know bronze brass. Sure. It was

[00:51:52] gleaming white. What a gleaming white metal man. Yeah. Mm-hmm. The the um what is that? What is the metal man? The metal man? The metal man. Like um the guys from Dr. Who? Oh cyber man? Cyber

[00:52:08] man. Yeah. I'm gonna call him this. The cyber man. Okay. Yeah. The cyber man brought me back to the entrance to the temple and I mean that's what that's what Christianity is like right? You will

[00:52:21] be a similar no assimilated that one is from that's the board. Yeah you will be assimilated. You're your- My fandoms mixed up. What do what are the cyber men say? Uh I don't remember exactly.

[00:52:36] Oh god damn it. Yeah it's uh I know that um they do get assimilated that's right. But that's not the word they use and the other dudes they're like delete delete. Right. Right. Yeah. Yeah.

[00:52:49] I can't remember. The dollics they delete delete okay. I'm trying to look it up so just see if I can hate it out of here. So because it's gonna bother me. I know. Yeah um you will be upgraded.

[00:53:03] upgraded. Yeah. You are ready for an upgrade. Yeah yeah yeah they don't say resistance in your style. That's the board. Yeah this is wrong. Yeah. I don't feel like they say you will be upgraded

[00:53:15] than the new version maybe that was a little version. Yeah and they also don't say delete. That's from the dollics. I think this is all kinds of wrong. Wow. So I honestly don't remember but whatever. That's probably a goober failed us but I'm gonna call Google Google Google.

[00:53:32] What do you want to get back to you guys about the cybermen? Because I can't remember. You say they're like come on come be like us. Yeah come on let's chop off your body parts

[00:53:41] and make you be metal. Right. The cybermen you know yeah I mean they are like the board but like the board or cold whereas the cybermen are like evilish. Right. So honestly I prefer

[00:53:56] the um board because they logically make sense. I'm not saying I'm not saying that I think that they're awesome and that I want to be one. I'm just saying like they make logical sense. Got it.

[00:54:10] All right I'm so sorry. So the cyberman brought me back to the entrance of the temple and I saw water. Not water. Coming out from under the threshold of the temple toward the

[00:54:21] east for the temple-based east. Okay yeah and I mean I'm assuming this is some sort of an underground square spring but I gotta tell you what they call plumbers my thinking if I was like walking around

[00:54:32] my house and I was like oh shit there go some water. Right. I would be like that is a bad day. Sure. Yeah. Was it? Didn't they um no I'm thinking of something else that was the

[00:54:44] never mind forget forget I said anything. All right edit edit. Yeah we'll be edited. There was just there was someplace that they diverted water to conquer but I think that was something to do with

[00:54:54] another city. Oh that was an entirely different yeah. True Islam or the temple. That was one of the siege things that they did. Right. All right so the water was calm and down from the south. Oh from

[00:55:06] under the south side of the temple south of the altar. Okay. That dude that we weren't supposed to ever hear from again. The Golden Dude, the Cyber Man. The Cyber Man brought me out through

[00:55:17] the North Gate and led me around the outside around the outside to the outer gate facing east and the water was trickling from the south side that water be trickling as it do. Yeah.

[00:55:30] As the man went eastward with a measuring line in his head you know how Cyber Man's love to fucking measure shit with the rod. He measured off a thousand cubits. Not rods

[00:55:42] cubits. Right. I mean it may be rods because of our translation. I'm just imagining him laying on the ground and laying his elbow down to his foot and then like getting that from doing the same thing

[00:55:51] over the thousand times. I was imagining him within a naprenistic measuring tape. Okay. This hasn't been invented yet. And it snaps back and then like all the people around him like all the Jewish people are like whoa. Anyway he measured off a thousand cubits or rods or

[00:56:14] whatever and then led me through water that was ankle deep. Why did he step into that water? I don't know. I wouldn't I don't step into water. I mean I like to go walk through streams.

[00:56:27] To get your shoes wet. Yeah. Are you serious? Oh my god I hate that because I'm your shoes never dry. They're never the same. That's why you have Trump and shoes you know you got to you

[00:56:37] had to have your Trump and shoes. See I only ever had one pair of sneakers at a time. I didn't have like these are my eaten clothes these are my pooping clothes these are my Trump and shoes

[00:56:47] these are my go into the grocery stores. She wasn't like my my shoes that I would go in the river were like they I mean they had holes in them they were fucking they were my trash shoes from the last time

[00:56:57] you know. Oh um as we call them today your lawn mow and shoes. Yeah okay. It's not like they were like a pair of shoes I bought to go into the river with special for companies. No they're there worn out

[00:57:07] pieces of shit. Okay yeah I didn't have those usually late by the time mine were done they were so done because I grew out of them but yeah that's so done meant that they were in the river.

[00:57:19] So no no no that's what they meant and my childhood anyway. No I don't keep old broken things got it. Yeah I don't understand that call. To go to go walk into the river you can deal with some

[00:57:29] slightly small slightly broken up shoes it's fine you know. Okay this is totally off topic but speaking of Trump and in rivers. Okay so do you remember when you were a child catching tadpoles? Yeah. I babysit a toddler and we were watching this nature video and these kids

[00:57:54] like with a parent supervision you know they were studying this ditch and stuff in their backyard not ditch but like a pool or whatever anyways. Okay. And so the mom was hoping them catch tapoles

[00:58:09] and I was thinking how unusual that was because that's dirty and gross like I'm not trying to catch tapoles I'm not trying to stick my hands in stagnant water which is where tapoles usually are.

[00:58:21] They're in ponds and they're in the meat. But I'm just saying. I mean that's normally where I would get them. And so the toddler was like what it does and I was like they're baby bugs and he's like no they're

[00:58:32] not because you know they don't look like baby for right right. And I'm like they haven't grown their legs yet. Yeah. They were their babies. The babies. So anyway I was thinking back to when I was

[00:58:42] little and yeah we used to catch tadpoles but I would never do that today. Like I'm a ew I don't want to trowb but I'm like in my hands dirty so I'm not trying to step in this ankle deep water.

[00:58:54] I mean I would but that's you know. Right but see but you're the outdoors person and I am the couch potato. That is that is our marriage. Yeah. Okay. But I'm the one that most I like to mo but then I'll

[00:59:08] like to come back inside and potato on the couch. Yeah. Okay. He the dude Cyberman measured off another thousand cubits or rods or whatever and led me through water that was knee deep. What?

[00:59:23] He measured off another thousand and led me through water that was up to my fucking waste. Wow. Okay. This water's getting too deep. He measured off another thousand but now it was a river

[00:59:33] that I could not cross. I saw where that was going right. Yeah. Because the water had risen and was deep enough to swim in a river that no one could cross. No one could cross. That's what

[00:59:44] it's so easy. But I'm better if they had a boat they could probably. Or maybe yeah or swim. I don't know if any rivers you can't cross. So this either is one crazy river or

[00:59:58] but it maybe it's rapids. Maybe there's rapids. But just I was going to say but this is calm waters. This is a nice flowing river. You should be able to swim it. Shouldn't be a problem. Yeah

[01:00:08] or like the list there's some sort of god barrier that stops you from doing that. Yeah. Okay. Well you can never count for God. Maybe there's a very skate you know. So yeah that's true. That is true. So the Cyberman asked me son of man.

[01:00:22] Yeah. You're human. Yeah. Fuck him worm. Do you see this? Then he. Then he led me back to the Bank of the River. When I arrived there I saw a great number of trees on each side of the river.

[01:00:36] He said to me this water flows toward the eastern region and goes down into the Arabah or a rabba. Okay. I don't know how to say it. Sure. Where enters the dead sea. When it empties into the sea the salty water there becomes fresh you know as. Right.

[01:00:52] Yeah. When it goes through and your fresh waters. These are not. So okay. Swarms of living creatures will live wherever the river flows. That makes us sound like shit can live in salt water. Right. And that's not how that works. There's salt water fish and fresh water fish.

[01:01:11] And so he's weird. Yeah. Although I think the dead sea is kind of like a dead sea. Yeah. Yeah. You know, not there might be some things that live in it but I think it's much less than

[01:01:20] like normal. Yeah because it's really salty. Yeah. Like like the one in Utah. Right. Yeah. That shit is so salty. Mm-hmm. Like me. It cries salty tears. There will be large numbers of fish because this water flows there and makes the salt water fresh.

[01:01:39] So where the river flows, everything will live. We fish a man. We'll stand along the shore from and getty to and a blame. There will be places for spreading nets. The fish will be

[01:01:52] of many kinds like the fish of the Mediterranean sea. Okay. But the swans and marshes will not become fresh. They will be left for salt. Okay. That's the way nature works. That's what's happening.

[01:02:06] I'm explaining a nature show to you. Okay. Thru trees of all kinds will grow on both banks of the river. Their leaves will not wither nor will their fruit fail. Oh, he's describing an eating.

[01:02:18] I guess every month they will bear fruit because the water from the sanctuary flows to them. So this is some kind of god river, right? It's a river. Yeah. Okay. I'm just like, it's so far what he's describing sounds like a fucking river. Things live in it.

[01:02:33] Tree grow by it. Okay. It's a river. They're all river. Yeah. Their fruit will serve for food and their leaves for healing. Okay. Okay. Allow doesn't grow. Allow is not a tree. So yeah, I don't know

[01:02:46] what that would be. But maybe like Coco trees or something? There's some healing power to Coco trees. There's also some like energy level stuff for Coco trees. I like how you call it Coco trees.

[01:02:58] Whatever the fuck there. Coco, coca, bronze. Coco, what? Oh, Coco like not coconut like Oh, Coco. The chocolate trees. You know, the cocaine trees. What everyone a fucking call. Yeah, Cocoa, Cocoa. Yeah. That's the one. Okay. Sorry. I was thinking of like coconut trees. No.

[01:03:19] And I was like, why? Like I couldn't make it work. But even that, if they were coconut trees, they would have some healing power to because the fruits have, you know, good good juices and

[01:03:29] them and stuff. Okay. So, you know, whatever. So we have an allow in the kitchen. Yeah. Would you say it has healing power? Or would you just like, I don't use the word power.

[01:03:39] It's healing properties. Properties. Yeah. There you go. Right. Yeah. That was, that was tricking me up too because I was like, they don't have powers. Like they're not magical. They're right things. Yeah. Okay. All right. So anyway, we're moving on to a different section in this chapter. Okay.

[01:03:55] This is what sovereign Lord says. Okay. These are the boundaries of the land that you will divide among the 12 tribes of Israel as their inheritance with two portions for Joseph. Didn't we already, does the Vitees up a long time ago? Or will we redefining them up?

[01:04:11] Yeah. Where this is new? Why wouldn't the old band boundaries stand? And for bringing all the tribes back together, and the parties happen again. Why don't they just get through all boundaries? Because they have to redraw it for the people

[01:04:23] that want life back then. Or that they don't like. Yeah. And that too. Right. Yeah. I mean, you can't use somebody's shit if you don't know where there's stuff starts and ends. Like, I'm trying

[01:04:35] to steal your money. Stay still. Right. Yeah. How much do you have? I want to, I want to steal it. Yeah. You got to know how much you're stealing first. Okay. So anyway, Cyberman says to

[01:04:47] Azikil, you are to divide it equally among them because awaited know this must be God is speaking. Yeah. The sovereign Lord said that's not the Cyberman. Got it. Because I swore with uplifted hand to give it to your ancestors, this land will become your inheritance.

[01:05:04] This is to be the boundary of the land. Here we go. Ready? Ready. Okay. On the north side, it will run from the Mediterranean sea by the Hethlong Road past Libohamoth to Zadog. Berrotha and Cyberame, which lies on the border between Damascus and Hamaith.

[01:05:24] As far as Hazer had a con, which is on the border of Haran. Are you following all this? Nope. Me neither. Sounds like a bunch of craft me. I mean, I don't want call it crap. It's just like

[01:05:36] geography that I can't grasp my mind around. It doesn't apply. It's just a bunch of like, mott mott mott mott mott mott mott mott mott mott. Yeah. Charlie Brown. I'm imagining that if you're like the neighboring tribes that look and act very similarly to

[01:05:52] the Israelites, you could get a whole of this prophecy and be like, hey, let's just pretend to be one of those lost tribes and then you just get like some land for free. If they just all stick to

[01:06:04] their story, they could get some Jewish land from the old this deal. What's interesting is in the notes that I was taking for this section, the Levites received their own land in this

[01:06:18] division. Which they didn't in the old river, which is part of why I feel like it gets more grifty as we go along. We regard to the priest stuff like that. So yeah, the Levites get their own land

[01:06:29] now. Yeah, and that cure. Right. The boundary will extend from the sea to Hizaranan, along the northern border of Damascus with the border of Hamas to the north. This will be the northern boundary. On the east side of the boundary will run between Haran and Damascus along the

[01:06:50] Jordan between Gilliad and the land of Israel to the Dead Sea and as far as Tamar. This will be the eastern boundary. Okay. On the south side, it will run from Tamar as far as the waters of

[01:07:05] Maribaba, Cadesh, then along the Wadi of Egypt, which that's the river of Egypt. Sure. Likely the mile. Right. We talked about that a while back. I remember that. And a Wadi is a flowing stream of water

[01:07:17] to the Mediterranean Sea. This will be the southern boundary. Okay. On the west side, the Mediterranean sea will be the boundary to a point opposite Lebo Hamas. The west will be the western boundary. Okay. So now I've done north-south east. Yeah. You are to distribute this land

[01:07:38] among yourselves according to the tribes of Israel. You accept for plus the Levites too. Right. Right. That's cute. You are to a lot it as an inheritance for yourselves and for the foreigners residing among you and who have children. You are to consider them as native born Israelites.

[01:08:00] All you different tax related before. Yeah. All you dudes that ran out and got yourselves for in wife that you like stole from other places. Yeah. As long as they have kids, as long

[01:08:14] as when you raped them, they gave birth then they get to be native born people. I read it as anybody foreign living among them. It didn't seem like it was too hard to a lot. It hasn't inherited

[01:08:25] for yourselves and for the foreigners residing among you and who have children. Yeah, for the foreigners living among you. It doesn't say they do. And who have children? Sure, but it's still foreigners.

[01:08:36] Like it's not necessarily just the people that they married. It's just the like giving gone for a certain amount of time. Okay. You're right. They're coming back and they're like don't fight them. Just join them.

[01:08:45] You're right. You're right. That's all okay. Got it. You are to consider them as native born Israelites. Along with you, they are to be a loted and inheritance among the tribes of Israel. In whatever

[01:08:58] tribe of foreign or resides, there you are to give them their inheritance to Claire's a sovereign Lord the end. Okay. They're just by land grabbing their adopting new Israelites. Yeah. They're like, so like this land is ours now. We plan at our flag, but no,

[01:09:17] don't worry. You don't have to get up or anything. You just have a new king. We just got to chop your weiner man. Right? So that, you know, no big after that you're good. Yeah. And also call yourself

[01:09:27] in Israel right now. Sure. That's all. Okay. No big. All right. Well, that was a, that was a Z keyel chapter 47. It sure is fuck was which means that we'll be back tomorrow with

[01:09:38] the final chapter of a easy Kyle chapter 48. Final Z keyel. No no no no no no no no no no no. Yeah. All right. We'll see you guys then. But wait. Do you remember what happened yesterday and where

[01:10:01] the hell we are today? Yes. Well, yesterday we read Z keyel chapter 47. Sure. It's like did. And in that chapter, there was some water flowing through drilling through the holes and like out

[01:10:13] of Jerusalem and then it like made things alive as I guess. And I think I think it was supposed to be like make it seem like. Yeah. But but he already gave the better land to the Egyptians a while back.

[01:10:28] Right. And according according to you, according to you, according to God, according to his E. Yeah. All right. Yeah. And and moreover, I mean the way it was being described just sounds like he's

[01:10:40] flooding shit and then there's things growing around it. It's liver so it's like the fertile crescent but with a water part. Yeah. Yeah. That's what it sounds like. So I don't know. There was

[01:10:49] a lot of other stuff. But that was the biggest thing I think. So enemy advocates. Yeah. The gates. The gates. Right. All right. Well that was a Z keyel chapter 47, which means that today we're getting into. Is E. Keyel chapter 48? All right. Oh. There's something important about today.

[01:11:07] What is important? Uh well the fact that we're ending E. Keyel. I was going to say that in the me. Oh well I fucked it up. Did you? You did. You fucking stole my stuff. So go ahead now. No,

[01:11:17] to late. Okay. Well it's the end of E. Keyel guys. There is no Dana only. So all right. We are back. Jumping into the very last chapter of Ezekiel. Yeah. Ezekiel chapter 38. Yes. Or as I affectionately

[01:11:40] call him for the last time. Ezekiel. That is correct. Okay. Yeah. I'm really excited about that. You have some specials coming up. But as far as an actual chapter. As far as the chapters. Yeah.

[01:11:50] Totally. I'm so I mean, I don't know if I'm excited about the chapter but I definitely excited to get to the end of it. Yeah. So for sure. And like when we get to the end of this

[01:11:59] episode you're going to ask me like, oh and tomorrow we'll be doing blood of the eye and we forgot to look at the schedule. So we'll just have to guess. Right. Well, today this will be going

[01:12:11] on Wednesday. That means we have Thursday and Friday. So that's actually perfect. It works out pretty well. Yeah. That's perfect. What good math we are. Right. Okay. I'm going to read now. That sounds like a good idea. Once again, chapters 40 through 48 are the final chapters of Ezekiel

[01:12:30] or Ezekiel. Sorry. I meant to say Ezekiel. Yeah. And they are known collectively as the Torah of Ezekiel because it is. Right. The Torah. Definitely fucking is. Yeah. It's so

[01:12:46] a bit of this. It's very a bit of a goal. Yeah. Our um, levittic kio. Yeah. We have a little bit of that out. Was that you? I think I used that the other day. Yeah. Yeah. Levittic kio. Yeah. That was so

[01:13:00] clever. That was so fucking clever. Obviously it stayed with me. Right. All right. So um, having said that, we are still in that magical waters and all those fucking gates. Yeah. That was

[01:13:10] the last section that we read yesterday. Is this a start off with them? No. No. It's a continuous idea. I've been waiting for the then and that we haven't had a then since I started waiting for it

[01:13:19] again. I know. I know. I know. I apologize. I can only do what I can do. And no. It starts out with these. Oh. Well. I'm listening. So normally I may go then. Right. But nope. These are the tribes.

[01:13:33] Listed by name. Okay. Are these the 12 tribes I'm wondering? Yeah. Okay. About to call them out ready. Yeah. Somebody's having existed in a long time. Mm-hmm. I mean, you know. curious, right? Yeah. At the northern frontier Dan will have one portion. Dan the man. Dan the man.

[01:13:50] Love Dan. It will follow the Heth law and bro to leave Ohamah. Hazara non and the northern border of Damascus next to Hhamah. We'll be part of its border from the east side to the west side.

[01:14:02] Okay. Asher will have one portion. It will border the territory of Dan for me to west. Okay. Okay. And we have to do this. Is it if we're going to destroy our town? Yeah. I got it. I got it.

[01:14:13] Nephtolly. I forgot that name and I fucking love that name. It just so cold to me. I forgot. I mean, these really have not been relevant for a long time. Yeah. In the Bible. Right.

[01:14:23] We'll have one portion. It will border the territory of Asher from east to west. One portion. What does a portion mean? Is this there a lot of an of land like they get one? Okay.

[01:14:34] Like, like when somebody puts a thing of mashed potatoes, a dollop if you will, a mashed potatoes on your plate. So when he gives Judah like five certain things, is that like show how much he loves Judah better than say Dan or something like that? Either

[01:14:47] that are he's trying to give him diabetes. I don't know. I don't know. I just wondered. I didn't know if this was like a favoritism thing or something. Kill your darling's. That's

[01:14:58] you know what that means? No, no, not talking about. So your darling's. You've never heard that phrase. No. Okay. So it's a writer term. Okay. But it's very well known. And in the writer world.

[01:15:08] And generally like outside of it as well. Okay. And it's just one of those things. And like don't fall too in love with your own creation that you can't act chapter if you need to or act character. Yeah. So you were talking about maybe killing off.

[01:15:27] And so I was like, you know, kill your darling's. Got it. Way of topic. Continuing on Menasa or as I like to say, Manasa will have one portion. It will border the territory of

[01:15:39] Naftolly from East West. E from we'll have one portion. It will border the territory of Manasa from East West. Rubin will have one portion. It will border the territory of E from

[01:15:50] from East West. Okay. Judah will have one portion. So everybody gets one portion. They could have just said, here's the tribes. One to the Republic of the 70, 90, 11, 12 and each of them gets one portion.

[01:16:02] If they do love extraneous information. And repetitive extraneous. I mean, it wouldn't be the Bible if it was just a synced into the point. That wouldn't be, I would be like what's going on here.

[01:16:12] What would happen? That's not how they write this stuff. No. So they've got to make it, you know, go on and on and on. Yeah. They do. And it does. Judah will have one portion.

[01:16:23] It will border the territory of Rubin, the Sandwich from East West. I love me a good Rubin. I don't. I'm not a big fan of Ryber. Yeah. Let me rephrase that. I like a good Rubin

[01:16:36] except not on Ry, which many people have told me makes it not a Rubin. Right. But I just still like it anyway. Yeah. I just, I don't want to have a guy. I've had maybe a couple of good Rubins in all of my life. Right. And that's what,

[01:16:50] like there are some Ryber ads that are okay. I can, I can deal with them. But it's, it's pure and far between that I like. What is that kind of seed that's on it? I have no idea.

[01:16:59] It's not sesame seeds. I can't think what it is. But whatever those, it's a thing. Okay. Whatever those seeds are, I fucking hate them. Okay. Okay. So I'll look it up later and not

[01:17:11] get back to you. Right. But I want to know the answer. Okay. Okay. Anyway, bordering the territory of Judah from East West will be the portion you are to present as a special gift. Okay. Okay.

[01:17:23] Pretty. It will be 25,000 Cubits wide. Maybe rod. This is the temple portion that they were talking about earlier. Right. I think so. Okay. And it's length from East West will equal one

[01:17:34] of the tribal portions. The sanctuary will be in the center of it. Yes. Yes. Okay. The special portion you are to offer to the Lord will be 25,000 Cubits long and 10,000 Cubits wide. Now as we spoke about in previous chapters, some interpretations use rods instead of

[01:17:55] Cubits to measure the temple. Yes. And they're talking about those measurements here in Cubits but I'm just letting it be known that, but it might be rods. Right. Which would make it larger. And I wish. Redarquillus. Yeah. Like not machine with reality larger. Exactly. This will be

[01:18:15] the sacred portion for the priesties. It will be 25,000 Cubits long on the north side. 10,000 Cubits wide on the west side. 10,000 Cubits wide on the east side. And 25,000 Cubits long

[01:18:31] on the south side. Okay. Did you get all that? Sure. Can I test you on it? Nope. No, I didn't retain any of that. In the center of it will be the sanctuary of the Lord. His little room, his closet

[01:18:43] there. Yeah. Yeah. God. Yeah. God. Yeah. God. Yeah. Well, keep some from you know murdering his neighbors apparently. No, they got a lot to watch. It's a good place for him to be I guess. This will be

[01:18:52] for the consecrated priesties, the Zatakites who were faithful in serving me and did not go astray as the we've listed. And it just so happened when the Israelite one was stray.

[01:19:04] And it just so happens as he kills one of them. Yeah. Yeah. So they did not. They did not go astray as the we've said when the Israelites want to stray. Okay. Yeah. It will be a special gift to them

[01:19:18] from the sacred portion of the land, a most holy portion bordering the territory of the Levites. I do find it very convenient. Yeah. Convenient that the Zatakites is a Zatakite. Yeah. And then the Zatakites are the favored people and it just so happens that one of those

[01:19:38] Zatakites is who God is talking to. Right. And as opposed to Leviticao stuff, right? Suddenly the Levites get their own special land and they did not in the Torah. They had land

[01:19:54] a portion to them sort of. It was usually outside of the confines of a city. Right. But it was hosted by each of the tribes. Right. The tribes were required to make room for them on their land.

[01:20:06] Yeah. This is more like a compound where there is sign land. Yeah. These guys get their own fucking land. They don't have to be better-win-like and travel about. Yeah. They get to stay put.

[01:20:16] Right. And that is not how that was supposed to be. So it was definitely different for sure. Yeah. Right. Well, it changes the specialness of these guys being in town. You know what I mean?

[01:20:28] Well, I think it takes away- like you know I had imagined that part of the reason the Levites were a portion to different tribes and different areas as opposed to having this one area where they were all at

[01:20:40] was because they probably were priestly like actors in those communities to help foster that religion in those areas. Right. They were locals able to know what words to use with the locals.

[01:20:54] Right. Kind of like how if you go into a Walmart in one state they might carry stuff that another Walmart doesn't carry in a different state because you cater to your local audience. Right. Right. So yeah. Alongside the territory of the Priests these, the Levites will have

[01:21:13] an allotment of 25,000 qubits long and 10,000 qubits wide. It's total length will be 25,000 qubits and it's with with with will be 10,000 qubits. Okay. Waddy. Yeah. They must not sell or exchange any of it.

[01:21:29] You got it. I've got to keep that shit. Yeah. Keep it real. But so we're also talking about a tribe here right. The Levites are essentially a tribe. Yes. So again, you know we were talking about

[01:21:39] this the last chapter I believe and that's that you know people have sex and eventually exponentially. Right. That population grows and if this is if the Levites are a tribe, this is only a short term fix to. You will outgrow the boundaries of your territory. Yeah.

[01:21:57] Yeah. Kind of like you know there's all the always fears that the human population will outgrow the territory of planet Earth. Right. Right. Like it gets larger and larger as you go and

[01:22:09] I think eventually that problem would solve itself but yeah. It would. Yeah. I mean we're already starting to eat the rich and eat each other. Yeah. I mean I know I eat a couple babies every morning after

[01:22:20] I sell to them. This is the best of the land. It must not pass into other hands. See right there. The Levites get the best land. Yeah. And just to be clear, we don't eat babies. Oh no. I just want

[01:22:31] to make sure I stay that like as a matter of fact. As a matter of fact. So yeah we don't eat babies. Right. I would like to think that's a given but no you're right we should specify context,

[01:22:43] etc. Right. Yeah because we are atheists and that could come back to bite us in the ass. These people eat babies. At least bite to baby in the ass. I just did a spit take. Yeah we don't eat babies.

[01:22:58] That's groty. Yeah because it is holy to the Lord. That's why that's why the Levites get the wrong land there. Yeah. And they didn't before. Before it wasn't holy to the Lord or whatever.

[01:23:10] It was different. Definitely. They had places to live. He just was in whatever. Yeah it was didn't belong to them. It was different. It was more tenty and less state of it. This is technically

[01:23:20] belonged to them. Technically I think it belongs to God, right? It does. But the other lands early on belong to God too. Yeah kind of. Whatever. Right. The remaining area, 5000 qubits wide

[01:23:34] and 25,000 qubits long will be for the common use of the city for houses and for pasture land. The city will be in the center of it and we'll have these measurements are you excited? No. What I mean

[01:23:47] we are finishing this whole book off with a grand slam. It is such a nice conclusion. Yeah yeah this is definitely a New York Times best seller. News that actually the Bible is I think.

[01:23:57] It is. It is. Yeah right up there with Trump's how the the art of the deal. Yeah. Is that really one of the well-plowed these days it might be? Yeah these days it might be but no

[01:24:09] yeah it's absolutely not. But I would say this is probably one of the least red New York Times best sellers ever. Yeah. So yeah. Yeah most people just buy it and put it on their

[01:24:18] fucking shelf. Right. Yeah. The North Side we're talking about the fucking city now okay? Sure. The North Side 45,000 qubits the South Side I said thousand I'm so sorry I meant 4500. Okay. Yeah. The North that's a big difference. This is why don't math. Right. The North Side

[01:24:35] 4500 qubits the South Side 4500 qubits the East Side. 4500? Yep and the West Side. Same. We're doing a square. We're doing a square. The pasture land for the city will be oh here we're going to make another square okay? Okay. It'll be 250 qubits on the North on the South,

[01:24:57] on the East and on the West I cut that son of short I cut out the extraneous data. That sounds like it must be right in the center of the city the way they're describing that. Yeah. So yeah that's sure

[01:25:07] okay. It's the pasture land for the city. That doesn't seem like that much land for pasture. 200 so it's your elbow to your typical middle finger. 250 those feels like about maybe well I guess that would be about three to four football fields maybe. I can't picture any of that.

[01:25:25] I have to make I don't have to think that further through because that might not be correct actually because I would say a qubits closer it's about a foot and a half and there's 100 yards

[01:25:35] and a football field. Oh my God. No I know I'm doing math on the live on the podcast it's not good but I mean that I don't know. I cannot hold all the things. It's not a ton of land

[01:25:45] I'm just going to say that okay. Look if I had a piece of paper in a pencil I could write all this down and I could figure that shit out. Right. But to put like in my head I cannot retain one while

[01:25:57] I'm moving on to the next one which is also why I cannot play chess. I have no ability to retain images. I would say this slightly bigger than a football field cubed. Oh my God you were just

[01:26:09] like inside your mind palace. I was. Like I was looking at you and I was talking to you and you were like staring beyond me because you were in your mind palace blowing me off.

[01:26:19] Doing math. Doing math. In my head yeah. Okay. You're kind of hot. What remains of the area bordering on the sacred portion and running the length of the length of it. I mean a very hard time. You should find your mind palace.

[01:26:39] Mine done got renovated. You're like a mine shack. Yes. Like a mine mine. cardboard box. There you go yeah. Yeah. A mine. No that's all I got. Yeah. Right. Sorry I ran out of things.

[01:26:54] Normally I'm pretty good on the fly but not that time. I have a mind pocket. That's what I have. You have my in pocket. Yes. It has pocket. Mine's a statue. Mine no pocket. I like I like the word a statue though. But I like when

[01:27:10] gallums as pockets is. Yes. I do like that. See? Yeah. That's good. That's why I said it. What does it have in its pockets is? Okay. Um blah blah blah blah. What are we now on the sacred portion and

[01:27:23] running the length of it will be 10,000 qubits on the east side and 10,000 qubits on the west. It's produce will supply food for the workers of the city. That's cool. And that's that's in

[01:27:35] line with what they were teaching back in the little vertical stuff. So that was because they would do the stuff the drop was for the poor and you know all that kind of stuff. Which I liked that stuff

[01:27:44] at the time. I still like that stuff. Yeah. Like take care of each other. Right. I think that makes complete sense. The workers from the city who farm it will come from all the tribes of Israel.

[01:27:55] The entire portion will be a square. 25,000 qubits on each side. I didn't summarize that. They summarized that this time. All right. They didn't be like side one 25 side two. They just said

[01:28:08] all but on side. They're like it's a square. It's a fucking square and each of them is 25. Get over yourself readers. We're not going to repeat it for time. I'm like okay. Yeah. All right. Thank you.

[01:28:18] As a special gift. You will set aside the sacred portion along with the property of the city. You know okay. Yeah. Because we're we're portioning the portions and here's the portions. Yep. So that's exactly what's happening. Right. What remains on both sides of the area

[01:28:36] formed by the sacred portion and the property of the city will belong to the Prince. If you picked the apples and the fruits that ran the sacred portion that held that stuff

[01:28:47] are you a sacred portion picker? Oh. I like that. I like that title. I think that would be a good title. What do you do for a job? I'm a sacred portion picker. Yeah. That's that's what I do.

[01:28:59] How much picker, Peter, Peter, paper, picker, what a wood chuck chuck. What? It's like looking at you. I'm like where are you going? Because there's like nowhere to go. And but you're gonna try and see it in your eyes. No. And I'm like this there's nothing here.

[01:29:18] She sells sea shells down by the sea shore. Yeah. And now we've moved on to tongue twisters. So I know. Oh, okay, but my favorite one ready favorite. This is my favorite one. Okay.

[01:29:28] Betty Baker bought some butter, but she said this butter's bitter. If I put it in the batter, it will make the batter bitter. So she bought some better butter, butter that was not so bitter.

[01:29:37] Thus she made the batter bitter and I missed a line. I did. God damn it, but still that was pretty good. That's pretty good. Yeah. Yeah. Better than I could do. It's been it's been a while since I've said it.

[01:29:48] Yeah. I'm going to be practicing it tonight. Those those those pre-excellent. Yeah. As far as tongue twisters go, you know. Yeah. And she put it in the batter. Thus she made the batter bitter. Oh, okay. There. Okay. There.

[01:29:59] That is bothering you. I was in my mind. We were working with more. We weren't going to be moving along until you pulled that one out of your ass. Oh, my mind. My mind. Oh, my ass. It will extend eastward. Whatever it is, I lost the thread.

[01:30:15] But on the 21,000 quits of the sacred portion we are such a mess tonight. We're just late. We're just going to get out of this book. Yeah, we're like I've read it. Yeah. I checked that book. And how do we be giddy about getting out of book quicker?

[01:30:32] We take longer to read it. That's generally how it goes with us, I think. You know what? Because we're just like fuck this shit. We're actually reading it. We're just going to make fun of this shit.

[01:30:41] Yeah. Yeah. And that's what we're doing. There's literally nothing in this that is any way relevant to God or like the arguments for against God. This is just some bullshit measure. Not about the afterlife. This is not about morals for being a good person and living a decent

[01:31:00] virtue life. There's literally nothing much here to comment on. No. So, but don't you mind. But you and I, we have to have fun with it. Or we just, you know, we will pull it out every time. We got to. We do this every fucking night. Oh, no.

[01:31:16] As I always say, when we're in the middle of the boring. Yeah. The point of this is to be able to say that we have read every word for us. For us. Not necessarily all of our lists. Oh, yeah, no. You do whatever your purpose is.

[01:31:30] I'm not dictating to you right your purpose. I'm saying for me and husband, our purpose in this is to be able to say we have read the entire Bible. Therefore, we have to even read the boring aspects. But we don't have to be bored while we're doing it.

[01:31:47] Right. So speaking of which, I should say this real quick, too. We are doing a live discord tonight. Oh, yeah. So we're live on discord and not every, actually, I think probably the majority

[01:31:58] people that are listening tonight aren't completely caught up to where we are. Right. That's true. So don't feel like you have to be caught up to join us on the lives. We never said that I think.

[01:32:08] Maybe we might have a lot of time while we did. But yeah, just join us because it's fun. We have a blast and you don't have to listen to a straight through. You could just stop in for the

[01:32:20] night and just to hang. And then if you need to just for completionist purposes, you can go back and read this in that episode later. I mean, I really want to. Besides by the time we get done talking about all the other crap that we talk about

[01:32:31] on the side bars like before and after and then the head of the podcast, there's, you're going to forget what we were talking about in the podcast anyway. That is a fact. I don't care how big your mind, Palisade. Yeah. Yeah. All right. Yeah. It's pockets.

[01:32:48] It, it, my precious was in that. Right. It's this. Okay. Just making sure you knew. It will extend eastward from the 25,000 qubits of the sacred portion to the eastern border and westward from the 25,000 qubits to the western border. Both these areas

[01:33:04] running the length of the tribal portions will belong to the Prince and the sacred portion with a temple sanctuary. We'll be in the center of them. You call that? Yeah. So the property of

[01:33:16] the Levites and the property of the city will lie in the center of the area that belongs to the Prince. Which as we've stated before, easy Kyle likes to use the words Prince and King interchangeably.

[01:33:28] I think it's more just like a title, like he's like blah blah blah royalty leader guy. Yeah. It's my impression that area belonging to the Prince King leader guy will lie between the border of Judah and the border of Benjamin. Pop quiz. Do you remember where those are?

[01:33:45] Absolutely. Fuckin' nine. I thought they were in the south of Israel. Sure. They were. And if I were calling correctly, I thought they were the southern king. I literally was not remembering as I was reading it. Because I was, no actually that is true. That is right because

[01:34:00] they often refer to the lost tribes as the northern king, no matter. Oh yeah yeah yeah. I remember that specifically. You were right about that. Certainly. We're in the south. Okay sure. Anyway, as for the rest of the tribes, Benjamin will have one portion.

[01:34:13] It will extend from the east side to the west side. Simon will have one portion. We didn't finish with the portions? No. We didn't finish with the middle. We didn't finish with the middle.

[01:34:22] Split them up in the middle and now we're going back to the point. We were like, tried, tried, tried. Oh, but now Prince. Here's the city in the Prince and the temple and the... I wonder if they were doing this geographically, either doing a full circle or going

[01:34:36] like top to bottom? That doesn't make sense either though because why would you stop in the middle of listing off the tribes to then list off the temple as between Judah and Benjamin? Yes.

[01:34:51] That doesn't make sense. Maybe they were going from south to north and they were like these guys, these guys, these guys, and then the middle and then now we're in the north.

[01:35:00] That's who's that could be? I mean, that's the way I would imagine it. But no, that's a good question. You could be right though. So Simon will have a portion. Yes, you know. One. It will

[01:35:09] yeah. It will board of the territory of Benjamin from east to west. Okay. I would have to see these on a fucking map. Yeah. It's a car. We'll have one portion. I forgot that was even one of

[01:35:20] the tribes. It's a car. It will boarder the territory of Simon for me to west. Everything's east to west. East was like because of the sun and people worshiped the sun and they called him raw

[01:35:36] and that's very exciting. That's he joked. Yeah, which a lot of the Jews were in Egypt and in Babylon, they were accused of worshiping the sun. Right, but it's not specifically just raw

[01:35:53] that it was like sun worship is not just centered on raw. There are other gods and other ideas that these things permeated. But he was from, whether they came from. But he was the big sun daddy.

[01:36:05] In Egypt, yeah. And in Babylon. Okay. He was the god in Babylon. He was one of the big sun gods in Babylon. And I'm saying that because it's specifically said that those idolatres

[01:36:21] were facing the sun and worshiping the sun at the temple. And that's what pissed God off. He was like, how dare you mother fuckers? I will tear you one. Okay. You're looking at

[01:36:33] me like I'm crazy. Well, I don't know why you think that raw. I'm looking at that because I don't think that that's I don't know that that's for sure real. All right. Well, I'm going to

[01:36:41] continue reading while you tip the top top type type type. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Zabilon. Oh, I love that name. We'll have one portion. It will border the territory of Isakhar from East to West.

[01:36:54] Gad will have one portion. It will border the territory of Zabilon from East to West. The yes. Yes. So they didn't worship fried all. It was Marduk. Was there? Oh yeah. Yeah. No, right. Okay. You don't look like you crazy little tick. No.

[01:37:11] I was confidently mistaken. And we're and now everybody has a big board board pick. Yeah, they're they're following along. Yeah. Um, another reason to head over to our discord every Tuesday at 10 p.m. You can play bingo. Sakra was just

[01:37:26] just course bingo. Yeah. And I am always giving up squares left and right because I saw so much. All right. So um, Gad will have a portion. It will border the territory of Zabilon from East to West.

[01:37:40] The southern boundary of Gad will run south from tomorrow to the waters of Marabakanesh. Okay. Then along the Wadi of Egypt to Mediterranean Sea. Yeah. Wadi is a running water, which is generally the river. And when they say Wadi of Egypt is generally believed that

[01:37:58] that was referring to the Nile. Really? Hmm. Okay. That's the Wadi of Egypt. We're in Israel, no. I'm pretty sure we're in Egypt. But it's bordering the Wadi, it says then along the Wadi of Egypt to the Mediterranean Sea is the border. Okay. I don't think that is

[01:38:21] isn't that the night either? Oh my god. I think it would be the Jordan River, which I think you know. So I thought it was a Nile. Um, again, I might be wrong, but the Nile

[01:38:30] is definitely in Egypt. It has nothing to do with um, it might have been different then. No, no. But I really thought the Wadi of Egypt was the Nile. I don't think that's correct. Wadi is

[01:38:43] built WAD. I just look it up. What is the Wadi of Egypt the Nile? Why would it be the why are we looking up the Wadi of Egypt when they live in Israel? Because it literally says the southern boundary of

[01:38:55] Gad will run south from tomorrow to the waters of Meribocca- then along the Wadi of Egypt to the Mediterranean Sea. Oh, okay. Okay. Okay. No, then you might be right. I apologize. Okay. I was confidently wrong and parallel. Okay. And what we call that bickering just that. Yeah,

[01:39:14] I think so. Okay. Okay. Got it. Yeah. Yeah. Let me, I'm looking right now to see if that's what, no, the Wadi of, no, it's not the Nile. It's not the Nile? No. What is the Wadi of Egypt then?

[01:39:25] No. I don't know. I really thought it was the fucking Nile. Yeah. I wondered because like the Nile runs kind of like, it's in Egypt. It's not like it's, it's not near the Mediterranean. It's not near Israel.

[01:39:37] No, you're right. So like that's why I was confused and like how that can't be right. So I, and I think we did some research on this back when we were looking at the Wadi. Yeah. The Wadi

[01:39:47] is not really, it's the more of a generic term. Yeah. It's just another word for running water. So I think that might be where we're going to leave that one. Okay. Don't know specifically

[01:39:58] what they're maybe referring to, I guess. All right. And if fucking Wadi's. And if we do find out anything more, we can always cover that in the Q&A or wrap up or whatever we're doing. So you know,

[01:40:07] Wadi's, you can never tell me why these are, there's Wadi's. They all look the same. Yeah. Okay. This is the land where you are to a lot. Oh, let me try that again. This is the land.

[01:40:18] You are to a lot as an inheritance to the tribes of Israel. And these will be their portions to close the sovereign Lord. Well, all of a sudden we get a quote from the sovereign Lord.

[01:40:28] Yeah. I forgot he was talking this whole time. It's easy to do. Yeah. These will be the exits of the city. We get exits even more of that population trope flow of traffic thing, you know?

[01:40:41] Yeah. Yeah. These will be the exits of the city beginning on the north side, which is 4500 cubits long. The gates of the city will be named after the tribes of Israel. Oh. Okay. So they have 12

[01:40:54] gates. Okay. I got you. The three gates on the north side will be the gate of Ruben, the gate of Judah and the gate of Levi on the east side, which is 4500 cubits long will be three gates. The gate

[01:41:07] of Joseph, the gate of Benjamin and the gate of Dan on the south side, which measures 4500 because remember at the square. 4,500 cubits will be three gates, you know, as you do, because you divide

[01:41:19] 12 by four and you get three or 12 by three and you get four. Yes. You know? Yes. The gate of Simon, the gate of Isacart and the gate of Zabilon, on the west side, which is 4500 cubits long will be

[01:41:33] three gates. The gate of Gad, the gate of Asher and the gate of Nftali. The distance all around. That will be circumference. Yes. Is it circumference circles though? Is it? I think it's circles.

[01:41:49] I could be wrong. I thought it was like oh my god. Why am I drawing? Blinks on everything tonight. Is it circumference only applied to a circle? I believe that's correct. So what do you

[01:42:01] call it? Is it the circles? Okay, so what do you call it when your time? The perimeter? perimeter? Yeah. That's the one. Okay. Okay. I wasn't confident we wrong on that. I was just confused.

[01:42:13] Yes. All right. All right. This has been your math lesson. You're really testing me the night. I'm having to stay on the ball here. I appreciate your math typey skills. Well, I mean, I knew perimeter without having a type and I knew circumference without having a thought that

[01:42:32] was circles. So I'm like I'm pretty sure I know these. Is this a guy that I make sure because you sound very confident? You say it so? I wasn't confident because I was like no circumference

[01:42:44] at that you're right. That does sound like circle but like what is the word for it then? What is that border word? Right. What do you have squares? A square is a line that's all twisted up.

[01:42:55] Right. You know? Okay. Anyway, 180 degrees. Okay. On the west side, which is 4500 cubits long will be three gates. This last one. Yep. The gate of GAD, the gate of Asher and

[01:43:08] the gate of Nephtaulay. All right. I'm about to bring it home here. Okay. Ready? The distance all the ram will be 18,000 cubits and the name of the city from that time on will be drum roll please.

[01:43:23] The Lord is there. Wait. The end. The name of the city from there on will be the Lord is there. There you go. Okay. There go your Lord. Is that the end? All right.

[01:43:36] We talked about this fucking city for eight goddamn chapters and they wait till the very last sentence of the book to give us the name of this goddamn city that doesn't even, okay. I'm sorry.

[01:43:51] So they built this city? They built this city. Yes, they did. But they didn't build the city because this is just a vision. This is a vision from fucking to take you all right. Yeah. And in canon it's a vision

[01:44:05] in real life. Yeah. It's bullshittery nonsense. Right and they're going to be doing animal sacrifices there which if you're a Christian kind of negates the need to build this temple. Right? Yeah because Jesus was the sacrifice. Right. Right. We needed a longer new sacrifices so that whole

[01:44:23] that whole thing kind of negates that need kind of and but we're going to we're even according to the Lord when the name and after the Lord or whatever the Lord is there is there. There he go.

[01:44:37] Yeah and all capitals even. Wow. Wow. Okay. Yep. There is all capitals. No, I'm sorry. Lord is not. Right. But Lord is capitalized but it's not all caps but the Lord is there. Right. Yeah.

[01:44:51] Yeah. That's how that reads. Right. Interesting. I don't know what to say about this because it's obviously not ever happened. This has this has not occurred. Right. And there's things that indicate that we probably will never have this happen because of the changes in rituals since

[01:45:08] this has been talked about. Right. And yet changes for Christians. It's not for Jews. Now you pair the Jewish people don't sacrifice animals anymore either except for some very, you know what it was? Is that word where they're like hardcore old fashioned? I don't.

[01:45:23] I want to say it's not what it was. I want to say the wrong thing so I don't know exactly but I want to say something else. I think I know what you're talking about. I probably don't. Yeah.

[01:45:35] Go on. Yes. I'm listening. We're just going to skip what they're called because I can't remember to film her head and I don't want to speak ignorantly about it. Hardcore dedicated old fashioned Jewish people. Yes. Might still do sacrifices. They try. I think there was a legal

[01:45:49] battle over it. Oh yeah, we were talking about that. Sorry, sorry, sorry. I'm excited when I know yes. So that I we read an article where there's a legal battle over a tribe. There was a

[01:46:01] group of people in Israel that were trying to reignite the idea of doing ritualistic sacrifice in the temple and it's not going so well for them because a lot of people were like no. We're not

[01:46:13] going to slaughter animals in the fucking temple. They were like, so even the Jewish people have been like, no, we don't need to do that shit. Yeah, that's right. We're working on it, man. Yeah.

[01:46:23] So I don't know. Even they've moved on beyond that. That's true. That is true. And I just don't feel like this whole temple thing works very well for a modern society in which we're in right now.

[01:46:34] Right. And moreover, if you are Christian, it's completely irrelevant pretty much. Yeah. Because again, Jesus is the sacrifice. But although spoilers were not there yet. Yeah, we're not there yet. But but also again, if we're going to think in the terms of Christianity,

[01:46:52] asykeal is a very important profit for Christians. Right. So you would think it would, it would be important these bits that we're talking about at the end as well. But this is the part you never hear about when we're talking to Christians in about asykeal. Right. This is

[01:47:08] not part of the conversation because this is so old testament. It's not even funny. Exactly. And if we're talking about old testament stuff, which is what you and I suspect, when we're reading

[01:47:18] asykeal, because that makes more sense in the whole Jewish context. Right. Then a lot of these stories that Christians like to apply to this book make absolutely zero sense. Right. You can

[01:47:31] make them fit if you want to. Wouldn't you have to make them fit? And that's the problem that you run into with this book. Um, what I just realized is a lot of fun is when a Christian goes both ways.

[01:47:45] Always. Um, but they will be like, um, we fucking love Noah's Ark and there's an Ark in Kentucky. We're going to go visit and we fucking love the story of Adam and Eve and like they

[01:47:57] go through all the stories. But then like if you ask, so you really like that. We'll test them and do you, um, you cut your hair I see and you're wearing mixed threads. What's up with that? And then

[01:48:07] they're all of a sudden they cannot dissociate themselves and that's a little testament. Right. That's pretty. And so you start talking about gay people. Right. And then they love that they love it again.

[01:48:17] Right. And I'm like, who is shit? Do we love the Old Testament or is it like, oh, that's so not where Jesus is. This is why it's a running joke that Christians cherry picked the Bible.

[01:48:28] Right. Because they can't get their messaging clear. But I just never having read the Bible until like these last four years. It never occurred to me that they will embrace the Old Testament one moment

[01:48:41] when it's convenient. And then completely distance themselves from it when it goes anything against Jesus or whatever. Sure. And that's just I think because we've been reading this and understanding that these are two separate religions, I just never applied the book that way. Right. And I think

[01:48:59] that I have a lot more respect for look, there are some Christians that are allies, right? That they are okay with the LGBTQIA community. They support women's rights, there are things, there are

[01:49:10] Christians that support these ideas and the right for people to have their own ideas outside of their religion. Right. Their religion is their religion. And generally their religion is something personal to them. And it's also they do take the whole Jesus story as their main focus. Right?

[01:49:31] They they're like, no, all of the stuff in the Old Testament is pretty much erased by the New Testament. More or less like this is the history but this is what we take as our religion

[01:49:41] or Gospel. And that's what that to me is what indicates someone who is more of a liberal Christian than a conservative Christian because they rely much more heavily on the New Testament than on the Old Testament. And the point of Jesus, which is love kindness for goodness,

[01:50:00] turn the other cheek, that kind of stuff, help the needy, you know, toss them fucking money tables like all the stories that you kind of know. I think that once we get to the New Testament

[01:50:10] you're going to find out that maybe you're being a little generous to the whole story. But with forget it's like that's the story that I understand generically. Right. Yeah, that I'm right

[01:50:21] there with you. But I also know that although we're not there yet, so I could be confidently wrong. We definitely could. I believe that he was also a fucking sarcastic little punk ass.

[01:50:33] And he sometimes would just turn around and be like, oh really? And like tell his own followers, you're fucking idiot. It not so many words. Really? Yeah. Interesting. And I know he like told his

[01:50:47] mom off one time and I'm like, really? She's a fucking saint, bro. Yeah. Like not per me, per many of your followers. Yeah. She has been canonized as a saint. And you are trash talking

[01:51:03] her. Like get your shit straight. Yeah. I don't know. I'm just, I can appreciate that it is long as people keep it to themselves. I'm okay with some of that. Like not like I'm okay

[01:51:17] as long as I don't have to deal with it in my life coming to my door and in my laws are laws. I shouldn't say the laws. The laws. Then I'm most okay with people worshiping them however they feel.

[01:51:30] I always say you do you, I don't give a shit. And I say most of because there's some cults out there and that's fucking weird shit going out. But whatever. Anyway, we got a lot of fun

[01:51:39] and it was a lot of fun. I think I did. Yeah. But that was a ZQL chapter 48. And the end of easy Kyle. Sure is buck was. It sure was. That's it. That's it for easy cow. We, oh my god. And so

[01:51:51] I said I said easy cow. You did, yeah. Thank you for that. Yeah, yeah. Um, you guys we have finished another book in the Bible. Yeah. That is you should be right now stand up, and especially if

[01:52:03] you're in a public place give yourself a round of applause please. Yeah. And just a chant, sacriletist discourse right there in the line or wherever you are currently listening to this because that would be just fucking amazing. But also if you have been keeping up and, you know,

[01:52:19] trying to follow along with us. Yeah. Even if you like didn't start it when we started but you binge to catch up or whatever. Yeah. If you have been with us the whole way and you have actually

[01:52:31] finished this book like honestly congrats on you not because like we're awesome or whatever but like you have read a large portion of the Bible. You have that's fucking awesome. You all

[01:52:43] you did good. Yeah, you did good. That's great. We did good. You did good. So that being said we're going to be back so obviously this is a midway through the week. Yeah. You're going to be getting

[01:52:53] this episode on Wednesday which means we still have Thursday Friday Saturday Sunday to finish out this week. So we did not plan this out ahead at all. No, but it's. But going the way we normally

[01:53:04] do it. So Thursday will be the Q&A for these three chapters but also the summary wrap up. Yeah, the wrap up. That's where I was looking for. So it'll be a little bit lengthy because I won't

[01:53:20] separate those into two separate episodes. Right. Sure. So I'll have a like part one in part two. Maybe we'll even take a break before. I don't know. I don't know how we'll split up the episode

[01:53:32] but they will be in the same episode and that'll be Thursday. Okay. And then Friday will be the year always wrong contradiction post quiz. But I'm always right though too. No, that's not

[01:53:44] the name of the game. No. I'm just saying. Yeah. Okay. And then on Saturday. Yeah. What are we going to do on Saturday? Well so I mean we are woefully behind. I think that we're twice

[01:53:56] right. Yeah, that's too much. That's too much to use wolf. Magicly behind. Yeah. So we don't have a book club out for a while. Oh yeah. What if I do that? We should do a book club on Saturday

[01:54:08] and then a Patreon on Sunday. We're going to do both. I mean that's pretty ambitious. ambitious. That's what I was looking for. So let's just say the best us will get that done. But knowing

[01:54:21] us on the weekends we probably won't. But we will do at least a book club. We're going to shoot for the moon and hopefully hit the you know the atmosphere. I was going to say like

[01:54:31] the top of the Empire State Building. Right. Yeah. And at least the top of our roof here. Yeah. That we can we can try to get that. Don't forget minimal effort. Yeah. You know. Just keep

[01:54:44] looking away. Just show up like oh yeah. What I was going to say about that is like I was doing this thing where I was walking every day and I need to get back on that. But I was

[01:54:55] walking every day and like I had it in my head for the longest time that I had at least go this distance right? And then I was like that's making me not want to go. Like I already know ahead of

[01:55:05] time. I don't want to walk that far. Fuck that. And so then I wouldn't even go. So I on purpose instituted the just check the box minimal effort. And what that means is if I put my shoes on my

[01:55:18] feet and I go out front and I walk to the end corner which is only like three houses down or whatever that gets to count. Sure. Because that makes it super easy. Right. And then I would usually walk

[01:55:33] farther but even if I didn't because it was raining or whatever, then I still got credit for it in my head like credit to the universe. I don't who's granting me these fucking points. I don't know.

[01:55:41] Just doing the thing every day. Yeah just showing up minimal effort show up, check the box. You know? And that's what we're doing with the fucking Bible. There you go. There you go. I brought it back around. Sure. All right. Well that was a ZKL chapter 48.

[01:55:54] Sure. Spark 1. The end. The end bitch. And again we'll be back the coming days with the special episode. The same. No things. So we will see you guys then. Bye. Let's spend. Wife. Do you know what the hell we're doing? Well it's actually a Saturday.

[01:56:17] Some sort of yeah. But yeah, Saturday. So I guess that means we're doing our Q&A Saturday and it's on a Saturday. We are running a little behind this week though.

[01:56:31] I know. We did need to make this not on a Saturday. Isn't that funny how they worked out? So we apologize for that. I've had some crazy. It would change in jobs. You know, it's just

[01:56:42] everything's kind of been up in the air and we're trying to get back on a regular schedule. So bear with us guys and we will be back to our regular normal self soon. And as we start a new book. Yeah as we start a new book. Yeah.

[01:56:53] We'll be fun. So what are we Q&A in today? We are covering the last couple chapters of what's his name? Is Eke. Yeah, that's the one. And that would be chapters 4647 and 48. All right. Well let's go ahead and do this. Okay. Okay.

[01:57:18] All right. So we're doing the Q&A first. Okay. We're again chapters 4647 and 48. Except that 46 we didn't have any questions for because it was straight up instructions the end. Right. Measurements. That's all it was. Yeah. Okay. And we were like, no, we're

[01:57:37] so in chapter 47 verse 1 says, though, my own brought me back to the entrance to the temple and I saw water coming out from under the threshold of the temple toward the east for the temple faced

[01:57:51] the water was coming from under the south side of the temple south of the altar. Okay. So I just had some notes about that. Less of a Q&A more just like an explanation of shit.

[01:58:03] Yeah, just to be clear this is the the bronze golden shining white gleaming dude. Yes. Okay. This one makes sure that me. Head the right guy. Yeah. The man, you know, who depends on

[01:58:13] what interpretation. Right. We are reading as to what color he is. Because this is obviously the word of God and can't be fallible in any way whatsoever. And can't be clear either.

[01:58:23] So reaching the gate of the temple is Ekele saw water spring under the threshold of that gate looking east, right? Mm-hmm. The waters ran west to east falling into the brook kidron and on from

[01:58:36] there to the dead sea. Okay. No such waters were ever in the temple. So Solomon had the sea made which held water for the use of the entire temple. Okay. Okay. Yeah. Water supplied the sea

[01:58:51] via pipes but a fountain producing abundance of water wasn't and couldn't be on top of such a hill. So consequently these waters are to be understood as being spiritual or symbolic rather than

[01:59:05] something that has ever happened or likely could ever happen. Okay. I can believe that to an extent but they also at some point back in Moses's time told us that water spring forth from a rock. So I mean

[01:59:17] right maybe they just don't have a good grasp on how water works. Right. I mean that could be because like we used to think that we had moods were like humors and they impacted what sicknesses we had

[01:59:29] and they used to like bleed us with leeches and like you know our scientific understanding of the body or anatomy or biology or chemistry was not all that great. Right. So but I'm going to

[01:59:43] lend it a little bit of leeway here because I remember in we were talking about that they talked about the water flowing out and like creating this whole new garden of even type things. So

[01:59:53] that could lend two spiritual things at a close to physical water. So so here's the problem though. Again this is supposed to be understood to be spiritual or symbolic. Yeah. Later God gave

[02:00:08] specific borders to mark the land and like real numbers you know and there will be real land that will be given to the real 12 tribes of Israel suggesting that this was not in fact symbolic

[02:00:22] or spiritual land but real land. Okay. So okay. You know it just kind of like argues with it self right and that could be argued as well because really the 12 the 12 tribes are a bit symbolic themselves

[02:00:34] because we need the tribes are lost by this point in time. Yes. So they don't even exist and this is this another one of these fever dreams that Azik feels having about something so there's only so much

[02:00:47] I don't know how much stock we can put in any of this honestly. I'm going to put zero. Right. As for myself you know you can do a different percentage but I'm going with zero. Right.

[02:00:58] Right. So if the borders described by God where put upon a modern map it would likely include all of Lebanon and a good portion of Syria including Damascus. It would not include modern Jordan or Egypt and would not extend southward to modern Ily Island. I don't know.

[02:01:20] Yeah. Only once in Israel's history did the political borders of Israel extend as far north as Libohamath. That was under David and under Jerobo on the second in second Kings. Okay. All right. So what I'm hearing is that God was getting a little grabby. Don't land grabby.

[02:01:40] Could be. Could be or that the person that wrote this thought he had an understanding of the politics and geography at the time and where it was likely to head but actually in fact didn't. Sure.

[02:01:51] Sure. Yeah. That would be my guess. That could make some sense. Generally speaking it is an area somewhat larger than the land Israel occupied in the Old Testament which you and I kind of

[02:02:02] figured when we were like. It's supposed to be a sound. Oh yeah because we started talking about he like it's gonna not it does better against easier for right now but it seemed bigger

[02:02:11] the way that it was being just. Yeah and in fact it is because moving on into Ezekiel 48. Yeah. The land was a portion from north to south in bands or layers. Like we were really confused

[02:02:24] about how all these pieces fit together and why so and so God land here and there and like it didn't make any fucking sense. Right. Right. When I say bands or layers I'm talking about like

[02:02:40] if you imagine a seven layer dip. Right. You've got the beans on the bottom then you've got the hamburger on top of that and then you've got like whatever else you put in their sour cream,

[02:02:54] whatever. I think you should ask God a damn how it feels to be referring to as referred to as beans. Well he's actually at the top. Oh. He's the cheese. Oh he's the cheese. Yeah so but we were thinking

[02:03:07] of just like different like circles and trying to picture how all this works. Yeah. In fact it reads more if you look up different maps. Yeah. It reads more as if there's a list. Right. Because remember

[02:03:22] remember we were like um why did they stop talking about these and all of a sudden just interrupt themselves to talk about the Holy district. Yeah because it falls in the middle of the list.

[02:03:34] So we've got like all of the northern things in a list like banded across the land and then in the middle of the temple area. Yes. And then it continues on under that with the rest of the list.

[02:03:50] And it's like if you took that list and then just sat it down on top of a map. Got it. So they are literally bands or layers of the dip. Okay. Okay. So one notable difference is that there is no land occupied

[02:04:05] on the east side of the Jordan River where the three trans Jordan tribes Ruben Gad and half of Manasa formerly had land. So that's not that's not part of this listing. That's not part of

[02:04:18] this new area. I remember in the times of Moses I remember being listed together because they stopped early and then they went up you know. That's interesting. Yeah so they are put back together. They're all

[02:04:31] squished up when on top of the other from north to south. But this is a whole new configuration somewhat compared to what God promised, quote unquote, promised them before. That's interesting

[02:04:43] to me because God this I thought that what they had the first time was supposed to be the promise land. Right. And then it turns out that the promised land was a little bit more than what they described

[02:04:54] but also a little bit less in some areas. Yes. The land markers didn't quite work out exactly the same way. Yeah it's very interesting. It's like it's like a Z-Kiel was like yeah that didn't work. So

[02:05:06] what we're going to do is and then he picked up all the pieces, shuffled them together and then relayed them out. Yeah. And was like here, here, here. But instead of like just shoved like laying them out

[02:05:19] hazzered all over the map, he just laid them one on top of the other from north to south. Right. Right. And the way he laid them out is very important because we didn't understand that

[02:05:32] Judah and Benjamin, they are the ones that were thought to be the most loyal through it all to God's work. Right. Those are on the north, Judah and on the south, Benjamin right between those two,

[02:05:49] that's where the middle section is of the city. And the recently definitely the most important tribe. Yes they were rewarded because they each get to be close closest to the Holy Land, the Holy District. It's funny to me because I don't know if you recall this but Benjamin,

[02:06:09] at one point was actually destroyed almost completely and they had to they took slave women to repopulate that tribe. Yes. That that's crazy. Yeah. And part of that was like I think the fact

[02:06:23] that God helped destroy them I think. I honestly don't remember but I wouldn't doubt it. Right. Right. I could be I could be getting that one wrong. But I mean it's just it's funny that they

[02:06:32] now are such a prominent tribe in this whole Bible thing. Right. It is very interesting. Yeah. So I'm going to name them again but this time now that we have a little bit better understanding

[02:06:46] of how this lays out. So just imagine the Mediterranean and that is the Western border for all of these people. Okay and I'm just going to name a list and just imagine them as the list next to the Mediterranean. Okay. Northmost we have Dan underneath that is Ashur,

[02:07:08] underneath that is Neptali. Underneath that is Joseph's two because it didn't go to him. It went to his two sons if you recall. Right. So Manasa and Ephraim and we'll come back to that in a minute

[02:07:22] Rubin and then Judah. Okay. Then we've got the holy district which I will talk about more in a minute. Sure. Okay. Underneath that is Benjamin and then Simon and then Isikhar, Zebulon and

[02:07:35] Gad. Okay. Okay. Yeah. So let's talk more about that center area though. Yeah. The holy district. Right. So I looked on maps to try to understand it better because I'm somewhat of a visual person

[02:07:49] and I don't feel like the Bible explained it well enough that I could imagine this. So I'm going to try to explain it a little bit better than the Bible did. Okay. Okay. So the holy district

[02:07:59] is set up similarly to the rest of it where it's a list except for the bottom part of the list. Okay. Yeah. So at first we have the Levites. Okay. They are the northernmost part of this

[02:08:17] Holy district. Right. And that puts them the furthest away from the temple. Okay. Even though they get included in that center section, right. They are the furthest away from the temple. Which is it was just kind of interesting because they're actually responsible for a lot

[02:08:34] of things going on at the temple. So yes. So they get to be in there. They get to be included but they are northmost and furthest away underneath them on this list comes the Zatokite priest

[02:08:50] and the sanctuary and the temple because the Zatokite priest of course live and serve in the sanctuary. Right. The temple. Right. Okay. Those are special priests. Yeah. So that's in the very center. They get the special eating clothes. Mm-hmm. And then just south of that comes the city.

[02:09:09] Okay. Okay. Now the city lies between from west to east. Like the city isn't a whole band to itself. Got it. Okay. It's a little teeny tiny square that on each side of it is the city gardens.

[02:09:26] Okay. And then what I've just described to you is a whole square. Okay. So it goes the Levites, the Zatokite priest, the sanctuary with the temple and then the city surrounded by

[02:09:40] the city gardens. Okay. So that is a square that I just described. Okay. And that is not the entire length of the rest of the bands. So what makes up the rest of that rectangle is

[02:09:56] Prince lands on either side. Okay. That's what fills out. So the prince is in the middle too. But in the middle of the prince is the holy district. I see. Okay. Does that make better sense? Yeah. Like I could not picture this for the fucking life of me.

[02:10:14] Yeah. I guess I didn't try that hard, honestly because to me this it doesn't really matter. Right. Yeah. It's a dream that as he yields supposedly had and supposedly written wrote down and supposedly is the word of God that has never been fulfilled and probably never will.

[02:10:33] Well, especially with this really weird layout where they just wrote down a list and then stuck it on a map and said there you go. Yeah. Why is it? It's things like this that really take away

[02:10:44] from the believability of the Bible in general. Robes it of any magic. Yeah. You know, it's kind of disappointing like, oh, that's it. Yeah. Okay. So let's move on from that to the gates

[02:10:59] around the city. Okay. Okay. So the gates around the city this comes from, you know what, I'm going back up. I'm sorry. I should have read the next sentence here. Okay. In my notes.

[02:11:10] Okay. So the verses in the last section sections 3335 were apparently added from a different source because they focused the city gates on each of the four sides and each gate is named after a certain

[02:11:25] tribe. Right. And so that shit was all added later by other people. They would have been followers of a Zikil, but not a Zikil himself. Okay. Because he had all the layout of all the city and stuff

[02:11:41] and like the gates were less important to him. Sure. So the new city is different from the Jerusalem in history. We pointed out already some of the differences because the gates of the post-exilic

[02:11:54] Jerusalem in the Amaya's time like way back when we're carefully noted yet none of them was named after the tribes. Although in the pre-exilic period there was a Benjamin gate and an E from gate,

[02:12:09] but both of those were on the north side, not the east side of the city. I feel like this inclusion in this section is more of a acknowledgement of and like here we're giving you something. This

[02:12:21] is a thing. You're all going to be part of the Holy District with your gate. Yes. You know? Yes. And that actually is kind of important too from what I'm about to say. Okay. Okay. In the new city,

[02:12:34] Levi stands as one of the 12 tribes with its own gate. Like the Levi's? Yeah. Like they are in the Holy District, right? The Levi's themselves. Yeah. They get to be in the Holy District,

[02:12:47] but they're the furthest away from the temple, right? Right. But they also get their own gate. Wait a second though. So that would make it 12. Yeah. Okay. Because remember I said we come back

[02:13:01] to that when I was talking about the two that were Joseph, on the gates they are one listed as the Joseph gate. Okay. Okay. So that the Levi's can have a gate. They've created essentially a

[02:13:16] 13th tribe. Yes and no. Because Maneasa and Ephraim were referred to as the Joseph tribe collectively on and off. Right. So it technically is Joseph's tribe, but it's his two

[02:13:32] sons each get one. Okay. So it depends on how they want to do it. And for the purposes of this, they were like, no we really want the Levi's to have their own gate. I mean to be fair to Joseph's

[02:13:45] sons. The entire history of the Bible is based on one person. Right. So I don't know where they get off saying any of this. You know, if you say there was 12 tribes before, there should still be 12 tribes. But whatever whatever they got to do to appease these little

[02:14:02] priestly people is fine I guess and if that is just in the dream so who cares? Right. And like going back to what you said, yeah, who fucking cares? But it matters in how they imagine

[02:14:17] and playcating various people. Yeah. That part is what I found interesting. How they laid out what they thought of the various people as far as like in this dream, your shitty. So you get to

[02:14:31] live furthest away from the city. Right. Like that's important. Yeah. The city less so. But how they imagine the people? Yeah. That's what I found really interesting. Right. And that's what I was trying

[02:14:42] to imagine when they were like, and this guy was living furthest away. I was like, what? I can't see it. So I had to see it in order to understand what the people how they were being punished or

[02:14:54] rewarded. Okay. Okay. So okay. We've got the Joseph gate and that's how they did the, um, there's still 12. Yeah. Okay. So the image of a city with 12 gates distributed equally among the four sides and named after the 12 tribes of Israel is really super fucking unusual. Okay.

[02:15:16] Okay. City walls were usually designed intentionally with only one gate. Right. I mean, that makes so lot of sense because it's a bit like you're sitting right. Yeah. Yeah. But this is going to be

[02:15:28] in a time of peace on other, whatever. Of course. In an Eden, you know, so we'll all live in harmony. No need to protect yourself. We just need to enter. So if that's the case, why don't you just

[02:15:41] leave the no gates? Well, I'm just saying not everybody can fit inside some people live outside. You know, they come to visit this city. But why do you need gates is what I'm saying? That I could

[02:15:56] not tell you. Okay. But I feel like it's just symbolic. It's just it is. Let's mention all the fucking tribes. Here's the people that are important to it there. They are. That is a very good

[02:16:06] question. You actually did stump me. I don't fucking know. Right. So okay, moving on since I can't answer that. And since again, who cares? Yeah. The order of the gate naming seems to have its

[02:16:18] own logic, which I found this kind of interesting too. The children of Leah all around the north one. Judah, Levi and Ruben. Okay. Because remember Jacob had several Jacob's name as Israel.

[02:16:34] And he had several different. He had like a wife and her sister wife or something like that. And then each of them had a concupine because you know, his wife couldn't have a baby or whatever.

[02:16:44] Right. So Leah was one of his wives. And so her children, Judah, Levi and Ruben are on the north side. On the south side is the other ones of Leah's children. Simon is a car in Zebulon. Okay.

[02:17:00] Because she had a shit time. Okay. The children of Rachel, remember that was the one he really loved. Rachel was his true love. Right. His actual wifey wife. Her children Joseph and Benjamin and also with Dan, who was the oldest son of Billah Rachel's handmade. Right. Those guys

[02:17:19] were all on the east side. Okay. So she only had two and you know, he had one with this other fucking made of hers. Sure. Where are you going to put that dude? Right. Because it was Rachel's handmade.

[02:17:34] Got it. Okay. So that guy gets to be with them. The remaining children of his various concupines or whatever. Gad, Asher and Nephtali were grouped together on the west. So the arrangement recalls the order of tribal camps around the tabernacle.

[02:17:53] Three on each of the four sides as referenced in the book of numbers. Got it. So I just thought that whole thing was interesting and there were really a lot of questions that that but that was the

[02:18:07] Q&A info that I could come up with that I thought might be interesting for this. Got it. Got it. Yeah. That's good information. Yeah. So is that all you got for us today then? That is all I have

[02:18:20] for the Q&A. Yes. All right. Well, we are going to be releasing the next episode which will be V wrap up. The wrap up for Ezekiel and we'll be doing that actually here probably tonight and shortly.

[02:18:33] So we'll be releasing a couple of back to back today and then we'll be back tomorrow with we will be doing the you are always wrong or as I like to call it your always wrong. That's right and

[02:18:48] so am I sometimes but you know, right? I'm right. I'm correct. Okay. Sometimes and then usually I'm also wrong. But you know, in the purposes. Not my fault. And for the purposes of the game you're always wrong. Right. That's the point. But in everything else you're usually right.

[02:19:08] So that's why I enjoy this game. Sure. And then are we still endeavoring to get done a book club? Yes. Exactly. I just blew a club. Well, I couldn't just weaken. Okay. All right.

[02:19:19] So we're still kind of trying to get all is done. Sorry for the delay this week. It's been we're kind of setting into a new schedule and it's been a little bit hectic get into it.

[02:19:27] So because you started in a job recently. Right. Right. And so we apologize for the, you know, not exactly on time stuff. The fourth thing in the backing. Yes. Hopefully we will find our rhythm

[02:19:40] and get back into this full fledged here soon. And in the meantime, hanging there and we'll be back shortly with the next episode. Okay. Okay. Bye. Bye. Husband. Wife. Do you know what we're doing now? Well, we are doing kind of a back-to-back episode now.

[02:20:02] So this is going to be out on Saturday as well as our other one that was out today. So if you accidentally skip that one, we did our Q&A over a ZQ CHIVORS 46 through 48. And that's

[02:20:13] really seeing the same time day slash thing is this which is our wrap up. Yeah. It's our answer. We're wrapping up the ZQ. Yeah. We're finishing the book of a ZQ. It's amazing.

[02:20:25] You guys, you did it. You read the whole ZQ. You followed along with us. Yeah. We're really excited then you should be too. Because this is just incredible. We're getting through this thing.

[02:20:35] We are getting through this. We're managing to have fun. This has been kind of fun. You know, I mean, Lou Malm going to say the ZQ Tour a bit. Fuck that shit. Yeah. That was some bullshit.

[02:20:47] I'm not about due to Ronomy and Obedicous all over again. Right? Right. But I mean, overall, ZQ was kind of an interesting character. I'll tell you. The brain. Yeah. Yeah. Some some crazy shit happened, you know? Uh-huh. But anyway, I

[02:21:05] am assuming we're going to go over a bit of what a ZQ is all about here. That's what a wrap up is. Yeah. It sure is. All right. Well, let's go do this. Okay, don't keep.

[02:21:16] All right. So we are wrapping up the book of a ZQ, which I'm very glad to be doing. I am as well. The book of a ZQ is the third of the latter profits in the Tenock.

[02:21:34] The latter greater profits or something or other? No. The Jewish version has everybody in a different order. Then the Christian Old Testament version. Like we are actually if we're going by the Jewish

[02:21:52] version, we are in the Tenock. Okay. Which is, you know, the other stuff that's not the Torah. Got it. Like they have the Torah is the law. Then they have the writings, which is I think it's

[02:22:03] the Katovum or something like that. I can't remember. Sure. The writings were like Psalms and the rammentations is or something like that. Yeah, I was the writings. Right. Okay. And then the profits, the latter profits are the Tenock. Got it.

[02:22:24] Okay. And that means as opposed to the main profits, which would be Moses. Right. All of them guys. All of them guys being Abraham and Moses. That's all I can come up with.

[02:22:38] I mean, I get somebody else. What I say, a profit or a violation? Why is Isaiah a latter profit? Or he wouldn't need why would you know, not a lot. Those guys would have been regular profits.

[02:22:50] Zikil is a latter profit because he comes later. Right. But Isaiah came later too. He was in the King's stuff. One knee. I mean, the King's is in the comments before the Babylonian

[02:23:02] exile. Right. So he would have been before the exile. All right. I didn't know. I don't know how this works. I'm just checking it out. Look, I don't know either. I'm just telling you some stuff. Got it. Okay.

[02:23:13] Yeah. So anyway, in the Jewish Tenock, he's the third of the latter profits. Okay. He's one of the major profits in the Christian Bible. Got it. The second to last as a matter of fact because

[02:23:28] the next one will read will be Daniel. Got it. And I don't know shit about shit about Daniel, except for that. I think there's lions or something. Okay. Daniel in the lions? I don't know. Why

[02:23:40] do I have that in my head? Right. I can be totally wrong. There might be clowns instead of lions. There could be. Yeah. Okay. So Zikil records six visions. I wasn't counting. So I'm just going to

[02:23:53] take the word for it. It sounds close, I guess. Yeah. Of the prophet Zikil who was exiled in Babylon during the 22 years from 593 to 571 BCE. Okay. All right. Just to clarify something real quick though.

[02:24:09] Isaiah is a latter profit. That's. Oh, no. You said he was a third. I thought he said his skill. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, this is E. K. I mean, this is E. K. I'm Isaiah. We're with latter profits.

[02:24:19] Right. I know. Okay. I got it now. That's what I just want to make sure we understood it. So that's all. Got it. Sorry. Sorry. No, that's fine. So the visions and the book both. Yeah.

[02:24:30] Our structured around three major themes. Okay. So first is the judgment on Israel which consists of Judah and Jerusalem. Okay. And that would be chapters one through 24. Sure. Okay. Next would be judgment on four nations and maybe chapters 25 through 32. Yeah. That was fun. That was not fun.

[02:24:52] The third theme is hope, salvation and future blessings for Israel. And that is chapters 33 through 48. And I'm like if you say so. Right. Okay. Yeah. The book of Ezekiel describes itself as the words

[02:25:07] of Ezekiel Ben Boosey, meaning son of Boosey. Okay. A priest living in exile in the city of Babylon between 593 to 571 BCE. Okay. I already said, but you know, okay. Most scholars today accept the basic authenticity of the book, but acknowledge there were clearly significant

[02:25:30] additions by a school of later followers of the original prophet, particularly those last chapters about the gates. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. According to Jewish tradition, the all caps, men of the great

[02:25:46] assembly. Okay. I don't get into that because I'm not sure what that was. Sure. Probably should have looked it up. I think I meant to and then I forgot because that's how my brain works. Right. I do have

[02:25:56] ADHD. So according to Jewish tradition, the men of the great assembly wrote the book of Ezekiel based on the prophet's words. Okay. Okay. Who knows if Ezekiel or these dudes wrote it? Right. The book probably reflects much of the historical Ezekiel like the dude, but it is simultaneously

[02:26:18] unlikely to preserve the very words of the prophet. Got it. So it talks about him, but it's not really likely to have been like a record of what he actually said. Okay. Right. Which I mean,

[02:26:31] I don't know to be happier sad for him because what if he was like, but I did dream about those wheels with eyes? Well, just I did a quick search for what we're looking at. Man of the great

[02:26:42] assembly. Right. Apparently it was a council of about 120 pages that were active after the Babylonian exile and they're credited with a lot of contributions to Judaism. Judaism. And it basically revolves around them, you know, editing, shit in the Bible. Who deciding which books

[02:27:02] would go in and which books wouldn't kind of think? Right. Right. Yeah. So I don't know. I mean, apparently this group of 120 pages determined what God said. That's what it looks like to me anyway. That's interesting. It is interesting, isn't it? I have all these conversations on

[02:27:19] mind with people about, you know, it being the Word of God or not being the Word of God. And there's a guy that I was talking to recently that was like, well, if you're taking the Bible

[02:27:30] literally, I'm like, well, I'm taking it literally because you said that this is the Word of God. So if it's the Word of God, then we're literally listening to God, right? But if we're listening

[02:27:40] to God, then 120 pages didn't fucking edit it after the Babylonian exile. Right. You know, like that, that's bullshit. It has to have both ways. Unless those guys were each led by God.

[02:27:50] Whatever. That's a bunch of fucking shit. It's like, okay, okay. Right. Yeah. So we just can't talk about it. God. What we're discovering is we go through this is that all of these books that we're reading have been severely edited at some point by somebody and added to

[02:28:07] and taken away from. And if there ever was a Word of God, which is questionable in and not as a fast, it's questionable. I mean, just absolutely ridiculous. You know, which I think I

[02:28:20] lean towards more of the absolutely ridiculous thing. But if we're to believe that this is the Word of God, then these people cannot be editing the Word of fucking God. Right. That's not how that works.

[02:28:31] No, God is God, right? God is supposed to be this all-knowing being that tells you what to fucking write if you're writing his word. So don't edit it. Yeah. That's all. That's all. I mean,

[02:28:44] sorry. I had to walk through just for a minute. Yeah. But yeah. So as EQ was born into a priestly family of Jerusalem, circa 623 BCE during the reign of the reforming King Josiah. Okay. Remember Josiah was a good one. Sure. I mean, it's a born. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

[02:29:02] Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Right. Prior to this time, Judah had been a vessel of the Assyrian Empire. Remember all that? Yeah. But the rapid decline of Assyria

[02:29:13] after circa 630 BCE led Josiah to assert his independence and institute a religious reform stressing loyalty to Yahweh, the national god of Israel. Got it. So that's why Josiah was like, we got to get back to Yahweh, man. Sure. To kind of reestablish a national religion to like,

[02:29:35] bring the people back together after having been serving on your Assyria. Even politically, that makes some sense. You know, you're bringing your people together and I'm sure against odds that are coming your way. Because like the falling of Assyria or Assyria is is probably

[02:29:51] writing on the wall as to what's coming for you. Yes. So he was like, we have got to band together. Religion is the way and maybe we can just see through what comes next. Yeah. I mean, makes perfect

[02:30:05] Josiah was killed however in 609 BCE. So Judah became a vessel of the new regional power the new Babylonian Empire. Yeah. That happened in 597 BCE following a rebellion against Babylon, Assyria was among the large group of Judeans taken into captivity by the Babylonians. So he was in

[02:30:29] that first group that was taken. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Assyria appears to have spent the rest of his life in Mesopotamia. Never got to come home, although there is no like legitimate thing that

[02:30:42] says that he didn't. Sure. But it's just not likely that it is. But I mean, all of his visions were visions of his homeland. It wasn't like they never they talk about him being transported by God

[02:30:55] back to Israel. But they never talk about him actually going back to Israel. Yeah. He like got real silent after like the end of his book. Right. We never hear what happened to them. So it's believed

[02:31:08] that he probably lived and died in Babylon. Sure. Which that tracks, you know. Yeah. A second deportation of Jews from Jerusalem to Babylon occurred in 586 BCE when another unsuccessful rebellion resulted

[02:31:23] in the destruction of the city and its temple and the exile of the remaining elements of the royal court, including the last scribes and priestesses. Got it. Okay. So that was pretty much the beginning

[02:31:37] of the end right there. Sure. Sure. A ZQUL was around 25 when he went into exile. And there would be another reason that he might have stayed so young. You know, when he got there, he he'd been there

[02:31:48] like he went there at a fairly young adult age and then lived there for several decades establishing a new life and leadership. You know, he might have just wanted to stick around. Yeah. So

[02:32:03] he was around 30 when he received his prophetic calling. Sure. And around 52 at the time of the last vision circa 571 BCE. Okay. Okay. The Septuagint, which is the Greek version of the Bible, that version of ZQUL differs slightly from the Hebrew version, the Mesoretic

[02:32:26] version. It's about eight verses shorter out of 1,272 verses and possibly represents an earlier transmission of the book that we have today. Okay. There are also other remnants of translations into various other languages and just pieces that do differ from this as well

[02:32:49] that were also likely from earlier transmissions. Okay. So yeah. Just FYI, we do not have the beginning of the book. So what we have today is likely not how the book actually went.

[02:33:05] Got it. In the differences. Right. And that kind of goes to what you were saying with, you know, dude sitting around a table just filling in the blanks and deciding what God said. Yeah. Yeah.

[02:33:15] So that further backs up that. Yeah. For sure. Previous prophets had used Israel to mean the northern kingdom and its tribes, right? Yeah. Like the others were, you know, gone. Right. Yeah. Um, when a ZQUL speaks of Israel, he is also addressing the deported remnant of Judah. Okay.

[02:33:36] So he's referring to like everybody there and gone. Got it. Which is interesting because he's the only one two have done that thus far. Yeah. I don't know about the other dude. Sure. Sure. Okay.

[02:33:48] Yeah. So we're going to talk a little bit about what I wrote here is EZ versus dudes. What that means is ZQUL versus Deuteronomy or the Deuteronomical writers. Right. Right. Yeah. So ZQUL is notable for suggesting individual responsibility to God as opposed to, you know, the Deuteronomistic writers.

[02:34:12] Okay. So EZQUL's like, each man is going to be hell responsible only for his own sins. And we're like, whoa. That's kind of new to that. Yes. That was the way we we coming on that at

[02:34:22] the time. That was very different. Yeah. And and that is um one of the controversial things about the book of EZQUL because it almost didn't get included because of the difference. Yeah. And this

[02:34:39] was one of the major points of contention. Right. Well, he strikes me just just on that that thought process right there that the whole last eight chapters, right? Where it was very much, you know,

[02:34:51] very levittical and in reading that they might have added that to Harkin back to yeah. Those like, okay, we know we changed things up over here but we're going to bring you right back into the

[02:35:01] O.T. over here. Yeah. And and that would make perfect sense. Yeah. Since it was obvious that those were added later. Right. So the Deuteronomistic writers of course held that the sins of the nation

[02:35:13] would be held against all without regard for an individual's personal guilt. And I think we discussed way back, way back at the beginning of Deuteronomy, um, why it was important for a culture to

[02:35:29] have combined guilt as opposed to individual guilt and it was to hold each other accountable because the opinion of your neighbor did matter, you would be that much more inclined to not be a

[02:35:43] fuck up asshole. Sure. You know, um, shame was a thing. Right. So, um, you know, as we progressing at bigger and bigger and bigger and more populations, individual guilt is going to matter more

[02:35:55] than group guilt. Yeah. So, um, it no longer was as important. And and as he killed I think understood that and that's why he changed that. Sure. Sure. But you know, I get that, but you know,

[02:36:11] at the same time we did talk about this during the O.T. in different times when they were talking about generational guilt. Mm-hmm. And that was symbol shit. Like group group think, okay, well,

[02:36:20] that's one thing like to hold a society accountable for actions and have them police themselves essentially. That's one thing. But two for God to say, okay, but I'm going to punish you for 10 generations or

[02:36:34] whatever. That was some crap. Okay, I'm going to wear two different hats now. Okay. So, I'm going to wear my wife hat, which is, um, you know, just a person in today's time, Mary

[02:36:47] DeHusband and say I completely 100% agree with you. Yeah. Okay. Then I'm going to wear my sociology scholar hat, which I'm not a scholar. So, I'm talking out of my ass. But I have a little

[02:37:02] bit of understanding of sociology. Sure. And how groups think and work, okay? So, thinking of this from a scholarly point of view, it did make sense again for them to have this, um, you're born

[02:37:20] into having this price on your head already. Yeah. Again, it was to keep the tribe joined. It was to keep them in line and they would kick the can down the road, but with the

[02:37:35] understanding that it likely would never have to get paid. Right. And that's, I'm not saying I agree with that. Wife totally is like that's a bullshit. Sure. Okay. But if I'm pulling myself

[02:37:48] outside of it and I'm just looking at it objectively from a looking back in history and how various cultures societal standpoint. Yes. It does make a certain kind of sense and did survey purpose. However, as they became more and more civilized, is that the right one? Sure.

[02:38:10] Progress, um, great, great. And grew and their tribe was no longer a tribe. It was more like an entire fucking nation. It made a lot less sense and I will say as far as Christianity goes,

[02:38:25] it makes no goddamn sense today. Great. Right. To be born with a fucking price tag on your head for the sin that, um, you know, nothing about that has nothing to fucking do with you and to have an

[02:38:38] entire fucking nation or your entire family, um, oh, the price for something that you didn't do. Right. Like that makes no fucking sense in today's time because we are not 80, 20 fucking tribes. Sure. You know, just whatever. So there's that. Okay. So Ezekiel wrote with a distinct

[02:38:59] ambivalence towards kingship whereas the Deuteronomy's reserved their scoring for individual kings rather than for the office itself. So that was another difference between Ezekiel and the Deuteronomy's dig writers. Got it. Okay. Yeah. And then Ezekiel praised the Zadakites over the

[02:39:16] Levi's of course because he was born, um, who he largely blamed for the destruction and exile. So he was not happy with them and also he was one of the other groups. Yeah. He had a very convenient.

[02:39:30] Yes. Okay. Yeah. Um, Ezekiel blamed the Babylonian exile not on the people's failure to keep the law but on their worship of gods other than Yahweh. Right. So, which is why he blames quote him,

[02:39:44] why he blames the Levi's I guess because they allowed for worship of other gods or whatever. Right. So even in the temple apparently according to the texts that were re- Yes. So yes. According to

[02:39:54] Ezekiel according to the deuts of the table that made these choices of what goes in the book. Sure. Yeah. So um, that is my recap. I have a pop quiz. Okay. And I have the answers ahead of time

[02:40:12] so that we can do this in real time instead of having to go back and be like, how did you do? Well, I think we're going to try something slightly different this time and then going forward from here too.

[02:40:23] Where we're going to let you guys kind of play along with me. Mm-hmm. So I'm going to make sure to repeat the question twice and it's multiple choice. So I'll make sure to give the choices twice.

[02:40:35] Yeah. And then you're going to slow down your fumbling response as you think through trying to get it correct. Yes. So to give our listeners a chance too. Yeah. Shout it out. If you shout loud enough, I might hear your answer. Okay.

[02:40:50] Just to shout it out wherever you are and let me know what the answer is that way I get it correct. Yeah. Play along with us. It's okay. Okay. So number one and there's 10 questions. Okay.

[02:41:01] Okay. Okay. 10 questions. Number one, what did the Lord tell Zekil? He has made him for the house of Israel. Would that be a curse, a king, a watchman, none of the above? I'll read it again.

[02:41:18] Okay. What did the Lord tell Zekil? He has made him for the house of Israel. A curse, a king, a watchman or none of the above? I'm going to go with, uh, make sure you slow down.

[02:41:34] Let's see. I need some help here. Need some help guys. All right. I think I'm going to go with Watchman. That would be correct. All right. And I got that one correct as well.

[02:41:44] Awesome. Yeah. So this was in Zekil chapter three verse 17. So enough, man. I have made you a watchman for the house of Israel. Whenever you hear a word from my mouth, you shall give them

[02:41:57] warning for from me. Right. Okay. And Zekil was Israel's spiritual watchman is what we're trying to say here. Sure. Okay. Watchmen were stationed on city walls to alert people of approaching dangers so that they could run and seek protection. So similarly, Zekil sounded warnings of impending judgment.

[02:42:19] Okay. Both to the unsafe. There's a spiritual watchman. Yes. Yes. And that's what I said. He was Israel's spiritual watch. Right. Right. Both to the unsaved to turn from evil and to the righteous to remain

[02:42:32] faithful. Got it. Okay. So very good on you. Okay. Number two, and thank you for telling has been the right answer. Yeah. You would not have known that. It's all you got you helped me. Yeah. Okay.

[02:42:44] Number two, one of the four faces of the living creatures that Zekil saw was a bird. What kind of bird was it? Okay. Here's your choices. Right. And equal an owl, a hawk or a dove. Now we need it again.

[02:43:03] Okay. I think I might know this one. You might. But let's trade it again. Right. One of the four faces of the living creatures that Zekil saw was a bird. What kind of bird was it? And equal

[02:43:18] an owl, a hawk or a dove. All right. Boom. Boom. Boom. Boom. All right. I think it was an eagle. Yes. That is correct. Okay. And I also got it correct. Got it. A Zekil's vision of the four living

[02:43:35] creatures in a Zekil chapter one are identified as cherubim. Each of a Zekil's cherubim have four faces that have a man, a lion and ox and an eagle. And eagle. Yeah. Okay. And this comes from

[02:43:49] a Zekil chapter one verse 10. Okay. As for the likeness of their faces, each had a human base. The four had the face of a lion on the right side. The four had the face of an ox on the left side.

[02:44:00] And the four had the face of an eagle. And that would have been on the other side that we have. The imagery of those angels was pretty fucking disturbing. Disturbing. Yeah. Yeah. I just, I don't know. I don't know about them guys. Right. Yeah. So number three. Okay.

[02:44:18] A Zekil saw living creatures underneath the God of Israel. Okay. What did a Zekil know them to be? Okay. Here's a choices. Sure. Seraphim, cherubim, profits or none of the above. Can't let's read that again. Sure. Yeah. A Zekil saw living creatures underneath the God of Israel.

[02:44:42] What did a Zekil know them to be? Seraphim, cherubim, profit or none of the above? Okay. I've got this narrow down to two possible choices. But I'm not 100% certain here. So I definitely

[02:44:55] definitely need your shoutouts here. I think, I know I'm going to get this from wrong. It's uh, I think it's cherubim. That's correct. Is it? It is. What was your other choice?

[02:45:06] I was going to say seraphim because I thought I was something different than what I thought for some reason. I don't know. Yeah. You did see some seraphim later. Yeah. That's why I was confused.

[02:45:15] Yeah. But no. These were the cherubim. You got to write as, as did I. All right. Okay. So we are kicking ass and not taking names. Right. Yeah. Okay. So in his second vision, Zekil identifies the

[02:45:27] creatures he saw earlier in his first vision as cherubim through direct narration. So he doesn't tell us the first time that that's what they are when he has his next vision. That's when he's

[02:45:37] like, and I knew them to be cherubim. Yeah. And I try to do a search like how do you fucking know though? Right. Like in the text doesn't specify how we gain this knowledge and therefore

[02:45:50] nobody can answer that goddamn question other than I guess God told him right then he didn't write that part down. Yeah. Like okay. Right. So anyway, this comes from a Zekil chapter 10 verse 20.

[02:46:04] These were the living creatures that I saw underneath the god of Israel by the Chabar Canal. And that's where he's referring to oh my god these were the same ones I saw that other time with the wheels

[02:46:15] and shit member member. Right. And I knew that they were cherubim. Okay. Is that is that what you knew? Yeah. Anyways. Okay. So number four, in Zekil chapter seven, how did the Lord describe

[02:46:28] himself? Okay. Ready? Right. One who heals one who defends one who strikes one who provides. I was read that again. Sure. In a Zekil chapter seven, how did the Lord describe himself

[02:46:44] one who heals one who defends one who strikes or one who provides. I'm struggling with this one. Mm-hmm. I got it wrong. Yeah. Yeah. All right. All right. I hope the power of the the the

[02:47:01] listeners comes to help this time. So I'm going to go with um provides. That's the one I picked. Damn it. Um, if you think about it three of the four are he's so sweet. He's nice and it's not any of

[02:47:17] those. Oh well that I mean that's that's what I should have picked. Mm-hmm. But I feel like they want to describe him as something better. That's new testament. Okay. No in the whole testament he's one

[02:47:28] who strikes. Yeah. Yeah. Don't worry. I got it wrong too. Yeah. The Lord refers to himself as one who strikes to deliver a message of judgment and impending punishment to the Israelites for the wrong

[02:47:40] doings. And as a reminder of his power and authority to bring about both blessings and curses. Okay. This comes from a Zekil chapter seven verse nine. Mm-hmm. And my eye will not spare.

[02:47:53] Nor will I have pity because I'm a son of a bitch. I will punish you according to your ways while your abominations are in your midst. Then you will know that I am the Lord who strikes. Yeah.

[02:48:06] And unlike what a fantastic bully. That's awesome. I also never get strikes. How's been gets strikes? I do. I do. I get some spares. Yeah. I do get some spares. Okay. He's like

[02:48:18] going to strike. I'm just excited if my bullying score beats 100. Right. And that is so fucking low considering that like you're aiming for like 200. Right? Yeah. You usually get up closer to 200.

[02:48:30] Yeah. I'm like, I beat 100. You're like, good job, babe. Yeah. But I have from with it. So, and that's the point. Yeah. Just don't play with husband because he does the pose and he like,

[02:48:42] I do the pose. Oh my God. You know where you lift the foot and stuff like, you know how to fucking bull. You are like, all for real on. I can't spend the ball.

[02:48:53] That's how it's how it can. You know, I've never been, I just bowl at straight down the thing, you know? Yeah. But the real bowlers, they spin the ball. So, well, I'm not real. I say as long as you

[02:49:06] get the score, that's all that fucking matters. And I'm pretty good and pretty good at what I do. But I just I haven't got the whole, you know, thing down. I have to say playing games with husband is

[02:49:14] kill because he wins everything except you remember when kid was little and we would play candy land. Yeah. You would 100% fucking lose. And then as kid got older, we played par cheesy and that had a

[02:49:28] little bit more strategy. So you enjoyed it more, but you still always lost because you just cannot handle games of luck. I can't. You need games of skill and strategy, which mean kid always lose.

[02:49:41] So it's no fun for us. Yeah. So if you ever see us out somewhere, just if you bring a board, like a risk board, I will be down for that because I never get to play here. And I want to play

[02:49:52] with me. I will get the beers. I'll be your beer, but I'm not about it. All right. Number five. Yeah. Who was the father of Ezekiel the priest? Oh God. You'll remember this when you hear them.

[02:50:04] Okay. I'm giving you the names, ready? Was it boozy, Zechariah, Elyab or just sodic? Oh, Jesus. Who was the father of Ezekiel the priest? Boozy, Zechariah, Elyab or just sodic? I don't know the answer to this one, but I'm gonna have,

[02:50:28] I'm gonna guess and I really like this name. But boozy? Yes. You don't remember like, I actually was leaning towards that one, but I don't know why. I actually tried to say it a couple

[02:50:41] times when I was reading through the recap because I knew it was on the pop quiz. So I try to be like really speak clearly, instead of a couple of times. So you have no fucking excuse honestly.

[02:50:56] I mean other than I wasn't listening. Yes. Right. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It was boozy. Beyond being the priest from Jerusalem and father of the prophet Ezekiel, nothing else is known about the guy. Got it. And this comes from Ezekiel chapter one, verse three.

[02:51:11] The word of the Lord came to Ezekiel. The priest, the son of boozy, in the land of the chaudians by the K-bar canal and the hand of the Lord was upon him there. Got it. Okay.

[02:51:23] And that's it. That's all we know. All right. All right. Number six, in the book of Ezekiel, where was the spirit of the living creatures? Was it in the wheels, the wings, the rings, or the

[02:51:37] firmament? No, let me read that again. Okay. In the book of Ezekiel, where was the spirit of the living creatures? Was it in the wheels, the wings, the rings, or the firmament?

[02:51:52] Now I'm not 100% certain about this. But I'm going to take a stab at it and everybody else please you know take your stab too because I don't I don't really know but I'm going to say I think

[02:52:05] it was the firmament. Oh, Womp. Got it wrong. You got it wrong. I got it right. How's it? What was it? What's your second guess? The wings. God damn no way off apparently. It's the wheels. The

[02:52:18] fucking wheels is where the spirit is. Do they go round, round, round, round, the imagery in Ezekiel's vision of the living creatures and the wheels with the same spirit points to the idea of divinely guided motion. Is that that's what that's what appoints to be. Absolutely. The creatures

[02:52:37] and the wheels are a unified entity, inseparable in their movement, suggesting that the spirit infuses them with both the will and the ability to move in perfect coordination wherever God directs them. Okay? Yeah. And that comes from Ezekiel chapter one. Verse 22. No, sorry, verse 21. Got it.

[02:52:59] I don't know why I said 22. I just thought that was just really crazy fucking imagery. That's all I thought. So when those went these went and when those stood these stood and when those rose from the

[02:53:13] earth, the wheels rose along with them for the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels. See? Okay. No's goes. Yeah. All right. Number seven. Yeah. When Ezekiel ate the scroll,

[02:53:26] what did the scroll taste like? What did it taste like? Here are your choices. So recall this. Here are your choices. Okay. Sour is lemon. Sweet as honey. Bitter as bile or hot and spicy.

[02:53:40] When Ezekiel ate the scroll, what did the scroll taste like? Sour's lemon. Sweet as honey. Bitter as bile or hot and spicy. I think I kind of know this one. Maybe. But I'm not 100% certain

[02:53:59] here. So hopefully, hopefully you guys at home or in your car, wherever you are, get this from right. But I'm going to go with honey. Yes. Okay. That is correct. I got that one right as well.

[02:54:10] I thought that might be it and you know, you're taking the word of God. So he's going to want to just taste like honey, right? Yeah. Definitely not bile. Mm-hmm. Yeah. In the book of Ezekiel,

[02:54:20] the act of eating the scroll symbolizes the prophet's complete internalization of God's message by consuming the scroll. Ezekiel absorbs God's words and becomes a vessel for that. Or a goal. Right. I'm going to go with a goal. Okay. This comes from Ezekiel chapter three, verse three,

[02:54:40] and he said to me, son of man, feed your belly with this scroll that I give you and fill your stomach with it. Then I ate it and it was in my mouth as sweet as honey. Yeah. And then

[02:54:50] I'm honey-lipped, bixits. Okay. Number eight, the Lord asked Ezekiel to eat the food as a barley cake on what was he to bake it as fuel? Ooh, I can't know this one. Mm-hmm. He could be to yourself.

[02:55:03] I'm going to read the choice. Wait. Wait. I have a question though. Is this what he originally wanted to bake it on or after he compromised what he wanted to bake it on? Um, I hear what you're

[02:55:13] asking it on what he was supposed to original. Okay. Right. Yeah. You know the answer. Yeah. Yeah. I know. Okay. So was it a tray? Was it human-dong? Was it chariots or was it a camel's back?

[02:55:25] And I'll read these again. Sure. Sure. The Lord asked Ezekiel to eat the food as a barley cake. I don't think he asked. I think he ordered. Right. Okay. Let me God doesn't usually ask. Right.

[02:55:35] On what was he to bake it as fuel? Was it a tray? Human-dong chariots or a camel's back? Okay. Well, you all know I know the answer and I think most for listeners if they are

[02:55:48] kept up with us through this book probably know the answer as well. Mm-hmm. It's human-dong. It's human fucking-dong. Yeah. Now did he end up doing it? No, but that's why it says

[02:55:57] the Lord asked him. He was supposed to bake it on there. Right. But it strikes me that in a way bothered me back even with Moses when some of these prophets are like, nah, nah. Right. They argue with God. I'm like, but there were times when

[02:56:12] do people who argued with God were we both supposed to? Yeah. They got smitten. Yeah. And not only do they win. Now we're so well for that. Mm-hmm. So I don't understand this

[02:56:22] power that they think they have to negotiate with God. Right. Like who's the fuck? Right. Yeah. Okay. I just reminded myself of a thing that blew my God damn mind. Okay. When I said,

[02:56:33] um, they got smoted or smitten. Yeah. Okay. So smitten comes from the same like root words, smite. Yeah. And I'm just like that seems a little fucking violent to say I was kind of

[02:56:49] lusty or you know in love with this person. Sure. I would- like when I say I am smitten, like I'm smitten with you, I don't like feel like I'm smited with you. Right. Like

[02:57:01] smite is like I killed that fucker hard. Right. Right. God smoked them. Like I don't feel like smitten comes across as violently as the word that it is the past tense or yeah.

[02:57:16] Now, you're not the past tense but you know what I mean? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Right. So yeah, that bothered me when I made that discovery that um, that's one of the forms of the words smite.

[02:57:27] Right. Right. Right. Okay. That bothered me. Sorry. Okay. So the act itself represents the hardship and deprivation that is realized with face during the Babylonian siege of Jerusalem. That's being cooking it on fucking human tongue. Got it. Eating um, man, I'm sorry, eating

[02:57:46] meager rations cooked with unclean fuel emphasizes the desperate conditions they'll injure. Further, in Jewish tradition, human waste is considered ritually unclean by using it for cooking as Ezekiel embodies the spiritual uncleanness of the Israelites due to their disobedience

[02:58:07] to God's law. And this comes from Ezekiel chapter four verse 12 and you shall eat it as a barley cake bacon in their sight on human tongue. Ew. Ew. Absolutely not. Right. Yeah. That was uh, that was interesting. All right. Verse nine. I said verse nine but I

[02:58:28] meant question nine. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. Um, according to Ezekiel chapter one, where was Ezekiel when God called him to be a prophet giving him visions of four winged creatures was he in Ezekiel or Jerusalem? How read that again? Sure. According to Ezekiel chapter one,

[02:58:54] where was Ezekiel when God called him to be a prophet giving him visions of four winged creatures was he in Ezekiel or Jerusalem? I think this is pretty easy because we just covered this in the last chapter that he was error than the last episode, but he wasn't

[02:59:15] even in Babylon until he was 25 and then he didn't start preaching until he was like 30. So it had to be Babylon. It was Babylon very good. Yes. Some readers believe the visions were real experiences in which Ezekiel directly encountered God and celestial beings. Others view the

[02:59:33] visions as symbolic representations of spiritual truths using imagery to convey God's message to the Israelites. Okay. Both interpretations have merit and can coexist in that the vivid imagery likely served in allegorical purpose while also being a very real experience for Ezekiel

[02:59:54] because he was highest bought. Right. Something. Yeah. Do was cray. Yes. So this comes from um, oh, she and I didn't write it down as first one of what chapter. Oh chapter one was in the question.

[03:00:09] That's like first one chapter one. Oh yeah, it's the very first book. It's the very first verse of the entire book. Okay. In my 30th year, in the fourth month on the fifth day while I was among

[03:00:21] the exiles by the K-bar river, the heavens were opened and I saw visions of God. Okay. All right. So that's where that came from. Yeah. That the Ezekiel started a strong. I mean,

[03:00:33] I was like, I'm with a God damn bang. God, my attention. It came strong out the gate and then it ended with a fucking whimper. It did. How disappointing. I believe it on the pages. Yeah. There's 120 pages.

[03:00:44] Fucking sages weren't very sadistic. I mean, at my own work. Number 10. Last one, ready? Yeah. Okay. Throughout the book of Ezekiel, God addressed him by a title when he gave him vision or mission. What phrase did God use to address Ezekiel when he told Ezekiel to

[03:01:05] profit? Everybody, everybody think real hard on this one. I'm sure you probably don't know it. So make make sure you pay attention to the question. We gave this a lot of extra attention.

[03:01:16] Extra attention as we read through it. So keep keep slow. Okay. I'm going to give you choices and the media against it. Do you understand? So yeah. Okay. So was it child of God the chosen one

[03:01:29] son of man or none of the above? Okay. Mm-hmm. Yeah. Let's read it again. Okay. Throughout the book of Ezekiel, God addressed him by a title when he gave him a vision or mission.

[03:01:41] What phrase did God use to address Ezekiel when he told Ezekiel to prophecy? Was it child of God the chosen one? Son of man or none of the above? Okay. I'm not going to pause too long

[03:01:56] in this one. Mm-hmm. Son of man. It was son of man. Yeah. You're human. You're fucking worm. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That is exactly what it was. God would use this phrase throughout Ezekiel's

[03:02:09] life when he gave him visions and words to prophecy to the Jewish people. Son of man emphasizes Ezekiel's limited human nature compared to God's divinity. Mm-hmm. By using this common term, God makes his messages more relatable to the Israelite. Oh, shit. He's fucking calling them out

[03:02:28] for being lesser. He's like, yeah, pieces of shit. Because God is a jealous piece of shit who is constantly like not happy with his creation and thinks horribly of them. I can't believe that a people

[03:02:42] made to be this way that I made are this way. And it wasn't just that the reason the whole reason we do the year mere human, you're fucking worm is because he's called them names like worms and

[03:02:53] stuff like that in the past. And it's all in the same vein. You're just a fucking human, fucking, you don't deserve shit. Your piece of shit. You know how I made you? You were made.

[03:03:05] You suck. Like what? That's rude. Yeah. That's whole. Right. So Ezekiel serves as a representative of humanity receiving messages meant for all people. So Ezekiel's supposed to be our every man in these stories, and I'm like, but you're not though. Yeah, again, they're just not.

[03:03:25] I call off a limited power here of God because why do we need this guy? This guy? Why does he have to be the one that tells us? Why can't you just tell everybody at once? Yeah,

[03:03:36] I'm not a fucking easy. So if God tuned into my brain radio, you know, and told me, hey, I'm God. And at the same time, I saw you be like, oh, you know, and you had something

[03:03:48] happened and say, I mean, that would be pretty close to enough, you know? I'll be like, yeah, what the fuck was that shit? Yeah. You know, but no, but no, he has to talk through some crazy

[03:03:56] asshole. Right. So this came from verse one, I'm sorry, chapter two, verse one of Ezekiel. He said to me, son of man, stand up on your feet and I will speak to you. And that's all. That is it.

[03:04:09] That is it. That is it. You missed two. I did. So I missed one. 80%. Yeah. We did good. We did good. Yeah. Hopefully you guys did just as good. I bet all of you made at least an

[03:04:20] 80%. You think like husband. Yeah. If you didn't know Shane, I definitely failed somebody's quizzes in the past. We have both failed the majority of them. Right. Oh yeah. But I feel pretty good about that one.

[03:04:31] Yeah. That was good. All right. Well, that is a wrap. That's a wrap on Zeke. Yes. He Kyle is done. Well, almost almost. Oh yeah. We do cut the limit. So we're these

[03:04:46] though this one and the Q&A for the last three chapters of Ezekiel came out today, which is Saturday. And then we'll be back on Sunday with. We are doing your always wrong or contradictions as I like to call it.

[03:05:01] And then we will also have the, um, Sequoalanges blue club. Yes. That's the one. And then I'll get the weekly, the replay wrap up thing done after that. And then it will be on Monday. We'll be back. We'll end

[03:05:18] to Daniel. Well yeah, we're going to start a new book. Yeah. Daniel. Daniel. It'll be the 27th book of the Bible everybody. Who's big D? I don't know. I don't know. We will find out. All right. We'll see you then. Bye.

[03:05:32] Wait. Do you know what the fuck we're doing up in here? We are for real. Finish enough as Ezekiel. For real for real. Yeah. Like this is, this is going to be the final episode.

[03:05:47] That has anything to do with Ezekiel. Right. Okay. Fuck that guy. Well and, and what is it that we're, uh, what episode are we doing today? You are always wrong or as I like to call it,

[03:05:59] the contradictions episode about Ezekiel. Yes. Yes. So we're going to go through and find some contradictions. I'm assuming sure. Fuck. Well. All right. You ready to do this? I am. Let's do it. Okay. Don't keep.

[03:06:18] All right. We are jumping into the final fufra that has to do with Ezekiel. Yes. And it is your always wrong. Don't tell me that it's a contradiction. It was sometimes you haven't seen it.

[03:06:30] You're saying it sometimes. I'm forever. Okay. Just a little bit. I'm sad about it. Well, I want to be right. You get to be right all the other times. All right. You do. You're generally

[03:06:42] right or than I am. Generally. Generally. So this is the one episode where I get to be right all the time. Well, I mean, technically you're just reading the questions. I'm just all wrong. I'm the one that

[03:06:53] prepared them. Therefore. All right. Ready. Number one. I'm ready. Does God lie? We've had this one before. I'm going to go with yes. Okay. Okay. You're right. There were some times in first king, second chronicles and Ezekiel when he did lie. Yeah. For example, in first king,

[03:07:13] he said, now therefore behold, the Lord have put a lying spirit in the mouth of these prophets and the Lord have spoken evil concerning thee. Remember that? Yeah, but that doesn't

[03:07:26] mean. He made it. Yeah. He didn't lie, but he made it. We had a problem with that the first time. Okay. So we'll let that one go. Sure. Okay. In second chronicles, it says,

[03:07:36] now therefore behold, the Lord have put a lying spirit in the mouth of these. I got this. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. All right. And in Ezekiel, it says, and if a prophet be deceived when he

[03:07:46] has spoken a thing, either Lord have deceived that prophet. Oh. That's right. Well, but that doesn't say he did. It just says that if that happens and I'm assuming that the part of that is like it never

[03:08:00] did happen. Well, I think that that's what we're supposed to think. But if a prophet is deceived when he speaks a thing. Right. But the thing is though, he's very God is very picky about who his prophets

[03:08:14] are. And so therefore just because they call themselves a prophet doesn't make them a prophet. But God refers to them as prophets. Right. Right. That's true. He doesn't ever say that they're

[03:08:25] not prophets. But I guess my idea of when God lies is more in line with just the stuff where he says things are going to happen and then they don't. I know call that a lie. I would call that

[03:08:38] how you're got a stupid and didn't know because he doesn't exist. But if he does, he's not all powerful and knowledgeable like you think he is. Right. And again, the whole the whole idea

[03:08:49] of him lying though is kind of the basis for our whole series of contradictions. Right? Okay. To some extent. Okay. Like the contradictions in the Bible are essentially God lies. Right?

[03:09:00] Okay. That's where I, that's where I, I know what my version was. I agree with that. I don't agree with that. Well, but it's the word of God. Okay. But that's not my understanding of what we

[03:09:10] were doing when we started the contradictions. It was just places in the Bible where somebody wrote it one way and one book and then somebody else wrote it a different way as it would contradicts itself. I don't consider that God lying. I consider that as

[03:09:28] human kind got the story wrong. I agree with you. I do. I agree with you 100%. Except for there are a multitude of people and I mean, a lot of people that say that the, I don't know

[03:09:41] how I just make sure that the Bible is is in the word of God is the word of God. And therefore, if it is contradicted somewhere, that would be a lie. That would be wrong. That would be incorrect.

[03:09:56] I, I'm going to push back on that though because a lie intends to be or to me, a lie means that malice and trickery is involved. And I think that Christians would argue that it was not

[03:10:16] malice and malicious intent and it was not any kind of cruel trickery except in the case of Job. Right. But I just, I take exception to saying that incorrectness is lying. Okay. Well, I mean, we can disagree. I take that the, the maliciousness and to me is that

[03:10:42] people try to pass off the word of the, the word of God is the Bible. Right. And, no, no, I'm getting to another point. The Bible then is somewhat insidious with regard to how people

[03:10:54] are forced to live their lives that are in these cults that are in these sex, that, you know, so therefore that that incorrectness that's in the Bible is in itself a malicious lie.

[03:11:06] Because it, it, it brings to light the idea that God is not infallible. God is probably not real. And this was really written by man. So, okay. I guess the question would be then, are we doing

[03:11:19] these with the understanding that God is fake or are we doing these with the, let's play along for the sake of argument and in canon God is real? I think much like we always do. We kind of

[03:11:34] play both sides. Right? We, we see it, we know you and I know from our perspective and most of our listeners perspectives that God is fake and this was written by man. Sure. Right? So,

[03:11:47] therefore the fallacies that are inherent in the Bible are there because of human error and or oversight or whatever. However, that leaves the, the people that are listening that are trying to, you know, that take this from a biblical God is correct perspective.

[03:12:10] We had, we play that other side for their benefit, right? Okay. For the people that are not nonbelievers that are listening to our podcast, maybe trying to prove us wrong, maybe trying to secure their own belief or however you want to look at it, but they're taking

[03:12:26] the Bible as the literal word of God. And so therefore we play the bit sometimes where we're like, okay, this is the word of God. Okay. And so we kind of have to play both sides to get both

[03:12:38] perspectives. I sure. Sure. And that's, that's where I'm coming at this question. It's that I didn't mean to turn this into a big, you know, what they're doing here. But no, no, I guess we just

[03:12:48] never really talked about it. We just kind of did it at face value, how the Bible contradicts itself. Sure. But this particular question has come up more than once and it turns out that in the Bible,

[03:13:01] God does not say that he does not say, it does not say anywhere there that he lies. Right. Technically. Technically. So that one I think causes other people to be able to. With the context of the Bible is incorrect, right? Like there is an actual answer,

[03:13:14] God does not lie according to the Bible. Right. Now again, if you take it out of that context and look at the Bible as a whole and the contradictions that are there, there is where the lie comes

[03:13:25] into play. And I would still not call that a lie because if you're going outside of Canon and saying, God doesn't exist, that means it's just people wrote it down wrong. Right. But again, that's where

[03:13:36] I give it into that whole argument that we just had it with, with, you know, where we're talking about people who take the Bible literally and as the Word of God. Okay. So I agree with you

[03:13:47] and but I want to make it clear as to why I'm saying what I'm saying. Sure. So that's all. Sorry, that was you want to tell us what God doesn't lie real quick because I know I butcher the whole

[03:13:57] section there. That was that was all of us saying yes, God lies. Yes. Even though apparently he kind of doesn't. Correct. I still think he does, but not by any particular verse I guess. Right.

[03:14:12] But no, God doesn't lie. Yeah. And it says in numbers, God is not a man that he should lie. Neither the son of man that he should repent. Okay. And then it says in second Samuel,

[03:14:25] that our, that God and thy words be true. Okay. Okay. I disagree with him not having to repent also. Oh, that comes up later. Fuck that shit. We'll talk about that later. All right. Yep. That's another

[03:14:37] one of the questions we do. Yeah. And I think that's fun, the more that we read and we re do these questions with one more bit of information. Yeah. The more we can argue about not

[03:14:49] argue by like have a heated discussion. We have more of an understanding of what God entails. Yes. Points. Yeah. Or what the Jewish tradition believes God entails. Right. Right. Yeah. That's funny. All right. Number two is God merciful? No. No, remember he was he strikes.

[03:15:09] Remember we just did that we just did the Q and A where we did the quiz and God strikes. He says that himself. Yep. No. He does. So no, he kind and merciful. I don't know. Yeah.

[03:15:22] And for Samuel, it says now go and smite Amolek and utterly destroy all that they have and spare them not but slave old men and woman infant and suckling. See, this terrible. He's a fucking dick.

[03:15:35] And then twice in a Zekil he's like fuck everybody. It says in my at least. Okay. I took two examples and mine I shall not spare the neither will I have pity. Okay. And then it also says go

[03:15:51] ye after him through the city and smite let not your eyes spare. Neither have ye pity. Slee other utterly old and young both maids and little children and women. Yeah. Good stuff.

[03:16:06] Might the fuck out of all of a kill kill kill. Never not be killing. Remember how he was going to have the dogs or whatever that was. Yeah. Yeah. Remember to come in and you know eat people and bodies.

[03:16:17] Yeah. Remember when he was going to have you walk through the blood of the fucking blood basically. Yeah. That was that was Sikonine. Yeah. Yeah. But guess what? I'm I'm you're always wrong.

[03:16:31] Have I ever trouble saying that one in that sentence? I've been here to witness this and I'm just like no, no he's not he's not merciful but he declares himself merciful. Or man declares him merciful.

[03:16:44] They do in the Bible. So in due to ronomy it says with a Lord like God is a merciful God. And then it says in second Samuel, let us fall now into the hand of the Lord for his mercies are great.

[03:16:57] Yeah. And then in Jeremiah it says, I will not cause mine anger to fall upon you for I am merciful. Say at the Lord and I will not keep anger forever. Right. Except for when I fucking you. He's actually I think he's actually

[03:17:10] said that he's going to keep anger for it. Like he's against the Israelites and going to be angry forever. I would call that a lie or repenting. And that's what I'm saying. Okay. That's what I'm saying. Right.

[03:17:20] There's that a liar repenting. It's also a contradiction. It is a contradiction. Right. So that that's where I'm saying that some of these contradictions kind of fall into the lie category.

[03:17:29] All right. That's all. But I would call that a repent not a lie. I guess. I guess. I guess. I mean, if you say something and then you change your mind later. Did you lie when you first set it?

[03:17:39] I mean, hypothetically when we get to the new testament like the whole the whole idea of God changes his mind. So therefore everything from the past could be taken as a lie. I guess. Right. That's something

[03:17:50] in some sense. Right. I guess. But in the Old Testament itself, it does a lot of this back and forth. Back and forth. So particularly because as E. G. You'll try to change some shit. Yeah, he did. Yeah. We'll get into

[03:18:03] some of that. Okay. All right. Number three. Yeah. Are we punished for the sins of others? Well, I'm going to get since we're in a Zeekeel. I'm going to say no because there was the new idea

[03:18:15] right. Put forth that we are solely responsible for our our our actions. Right. Because Zeekeel is like, we're not doing that. Yeah. God's. Which that was a shocking revelation in this book that was like, wow part of what makes the book so controversial. Right. Religious leaders who argue

[03:18:35] about whether it should even be in the Bible. I you have to wonder like is the entire like not the entire, but as a large basis of what Christianity is based off of Ezekiel, right? Based on this

[03:18:48] statement alone. Like that idea that you were solely responsible for your relationship with God. To me is a very Christian idea. It is not a Jewish idea. It is, but having said that,

[03:19:02] I have read ahead to take some notes from the next book that we're going to be covering. Okay. And there are specific things mentioned in the book of Daniel that I can see where

[03:19:13] there's more Christian just picked it right up in Ramly. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. So if we're going to say that, I would say yeah, this and the book of Daniel. Like basically, well, I don't know how

[03:19:24] anything about the upcoming books. I mean like literally no, I know nothing about it. It just seems like the closer we get to the end of the Old Testament, the more that the Christians going to

[03:19:34] them. Sure. You know? Well, it does feel like you know, time wise we have been going further in time as we grow. So we're in closer. Yeah. So we're getting closer and closer to Christianity. So some of

[03:19:45] these ideas might just be permeating their society. Yeah, they would have been floating around that's how religion starts. Yeah. Right. So yeah, that makes sense. All right. So but guess what? You're always wrong. Yeah. I wasn't seeing it anymore because this episode is annoying enough

[03:20:03] without me singing it. All right. All right. So I'm going to say, oh, I didn't read the examples so you said no because of a Zikil. Right. We are not punished for the sins of others. Sorry.

[03:20:18] I'm fine. My place. Yeah. All right. So in Deuteronomy, it says, the father shall not be put to death for the children. Neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers. Every man

[03:20:29] shall be put to death for his own sin. That was in Deuteronomy? That was in Deuteronomy. Interesting. Yep. Okay. Yeah. All right. But it also said other stuff in Deuteronomy. That's why it's, yeah.

[03:20:38] And I think that's been in our contradictions before too. Oh, yeah. It definitely. Yeah. In Jeremiah, it says in those days, they shall say no more. The fathers have eaten a sour grape and the children's

[03:20:49] teeth are set on edge. But everyone shall die for his own in equity. Okay. Right. Now of course, as you pointed out in a Zikil, it says, the son shall not bear the iniquity of the father. And I

[03:21:00] have there shall the father bear the iniquity of the son, the righteousness of the righteous. She'll be upon him and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him. So I guess I should say,

[03:21:09] I guess it wasn't quite as unique of an idea overall as I thought. But I guess the way it was stated in a Zikil felt more succinct and he made it solid, not wishy-washing. Right. Yeah. Because I

[03:21:22] feel like it was contradicted almost immediately in his other books. Yeah. Definitely. If not, specifically in Deuteronomy somewhere in the pentafuckin' to. Right. Yeah. No, it. Yeah. This was a whole philosophy from one of the prophets. Something that's why I was like, this is interesting.

[03:21:37] Yeah. Yeah. Definitely. Yeah. All right. So but I guess what you're wrong. Right. Yeah. Because yeah, you're totally punished for the sins of others. In both Exodus and Deuteronomy it says specifically,

[03:21:50] are the Lord thy God, am a jealous God visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation. Yeah. Because fuck those kids is why. Right. Yeah. Also, it says in Jeremiah, where floor half the Lord pronounced all this great evil against us

[03:22:09] or what is our iniquity? Or what is our sin that we have committed against the Lord our God? Then shout, they'll say unto them, because your fathers have forsaken me, say of the Lord,

[03:22:19] and have walked after other gods and have served them and have worshiped them and have forsaken me and have not kept my law. Which is funny because Jeremiah was actually only about 20 years prior

[03:22:31] to a Zeekeel and just happened to be in Jerusalem as opposed to Babylon. Yeah. So we're talking about 20 years in which according to these prophets, God changed his mind. Here's another thing that I didn't realize until I was against studying Daniel and it was permeating. Yeah. The group

[03:22:54] that got taken up to Babylon, they were all the smarties and the court people and the scribes and all that. Yeah. But yet Jeremiah was left behind. Right. Right. So it's like,

[03:23:06] was he not as smart as, you know, we think he is? Well, I don't, I don't think that that was what it was. I think we talked about it at the time in the series of double agents. That's right. So

[03:23:15] he was working against the remainder of Jerusalem to make sure that everything was falling in line. He was the Trump leading the masses, the stupid masses. Right. Yeah. All right. Last month, first Kings, Seist Dau how a have humble with himself before me because he humble him, humblest

[03:23:34] with himself before me, I will not bring the evil in his days. But in his Sundays, will I bring the evil upon his house? I'm not going to kill him because he's nice instead. I'm going to kill a

[03:23:44] son. Right. Yeah. That's some real bullshit. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Look back by God's dick. Yeah. All right. Number four, how should the e-demites be treated? Kindly or kill them? I mean, come with kindness. I think that you should treat them kindly. I agree. That's why would you

[03:24:02] treat them like us? I agree. I could treat them like us. I can only find one place where it says be kind to them. Yeah. That was in due to autonomy. It says Dau shout not up or an

[03:24:15] e-demite for he is thy brother. Right. Which they were at the time. Yeah. Yeah. And then that would be in the face to large later just yeah, further removed. Now I believe that there are some places

[03:24:28] coming up maybe in the new testament where it will say, yeah, yeah, be nice to the fucking e-demites. But I saw somewhere somewhere where we haven't been yet. Okay. And so I couldn't quote that one.

[03:24:40] Cut it. Yeah. So we will be coming back to this question. Interesting. Yeah. But guess what? I'm wrong. You're wrong because of course you should kill them. It says in second Kings,

[03:24:54] and Emma Zia did that which was right in the side of the Lord. He slew of E-dom in the Valley of Salt 10,000. Yeah. Because killing. Right. I love that feeling. And then of course in a Zikael it says,

[03:25:07] I will also stretch out my hand upon E-dom and I will cut off man and beast from it. Yeah. Yeah. Get them right. Never not be killing. Right. Killing like a villain. Alright number five does God repent? No. No that fucker doesn't give two shits. He does

[03:25:28] change his mind. I wouldn't call that repenting even though the word repent is what's used in various translations. Generally though he changes his mind because he is worried about what people think of it. Yeah. It's not about. He doesn't feel sorry. Yeah. He's not, um, he's not like,

[03:25:46] oh, I did wrong that time. Right. He's not sorry for his crimes. No, he feels embarrassed or something. Yeah. Yeah. He gets hilarious to me. He gets shamed into changing his mind about,

[03:25:58] he's your curial. Yeah. And he will change his mind with the blow of the wind. Right. Alright. So you're going to say no. He is God does not repent. Okay.

[03:26:10] So you're right. In numbers it says God is not a man that he should lie neither the son of a man that he should repent. Okay. Which we read that earlier in the does God lie. Right. Okay.

[03:26:20] And then in first Samuel it says the strength of Israel will not lie nor repent for he is not a man that he should repent. Okay. Yeah. And in a Zeekeel it says either Lord has spoken. It shall come to

[03:26:33] pass and I will do it. I will not go back. Neither will I spare, neither will I repent. Okay. Now I'm going to say instead of your wrong, I'm going to say the Bible is wrong.

[03:26:52] Oh, oh, wait. This is just mean that I'm right. Yes, but just this one time. Oh, damn. Just like Mark this down. Just this one. Mark it down. I'm right. Because yes, the Lord does repent according to the word that's used in the translations as they are given.

[03:27:13] I'm not sure like per conversation we just had if that counts as repenting. Okay. Right. In Genesis it says and it repented the Lord that he had made man on the earth and it grieved him at his heart.

[03:27:26] Okay. He's like, I wish I never made those fuckers. Yeah. Repenting or is that bitter? I have a hard time believing that first of all because he could especially even back then. He

[03:27:37] could have just wiped him out. Yeah. You could have been like these guys did multiple times. Right. So if he really repented of that, he could have rectified that. Yeah. He could have fixed it or just

[03:27:48] blown him out of existence. Yeah. So then in Jeremiah like way later, you know, if that nation against whom I have pronounced turn from their evil, I will repent of the evil that I thought to

[03:28:02] do unto them. But that is easy for him to say knowing that they won't do it because this was written after the fact. Right. And it's also a thought experiment he's saying that if they

[03:28:18] do this, I will repent of my thought of doing bad things to them. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. That you you haven't actually repented. You just said that you might. Yeah. Which if you're God, you already

[03:28:30] know they're not going to. So therefore how could you even say that statement and mean it? Yeah. Exactly. Just dumb. So again, the Bible says that's repenting. I'm gonna say that's the wrong

[03:28:42] use of that word. I agree. Okay. Last one. And first Samuel is says, it repenteth me, God, that I have set up soul to be king. For he has turned back from following me and have not performed

[03:28:55] my commandments, which was committing complete genocide on the amallocides. And the Lord repented that he had made soul king over Israel. It doesn't sound so much like he's saying repent is regret. Yeah. I'm like repenting to me means that you are fully admitting you were wrong and

[03:29:14] you're taking responsibility for it. For your mistake and you feel bad and moreover, you're taking actions to rectify. That's what repent means according to the whole Jesus he thing I believe. Sure. Like you have to do more than just say, I'm sorry.

[03:29:30] But this just sounds like regret. This is salty. That's all. You salty. They fucked up and you salty over it. You know, for instance that you mentioned sounded like regret. Yeah. And they were

[03:29:39] things that if he was actually God, he could have easily fixed. Right. So why didn't he if he actually felt this way? Right. Exactly. That I think that they just mis-translated a word repeatedly.

[03:29:52] Yeah. And it should not say repent. Right. Or it was used differently back then. I don't know. Fucking who knows. Whatever. Yeah. Who cares? Yeah. Number six. Yeah. Is it okay to marry your wife

[03:30:05] sister while your wife is still alive? Um, really this is a question. You know? Interesting. Yes or no. Are you actually going to go with? No. I mean, I don't think it's ever- or it'll get married your wife's sister. Yeah. Like if I die, don't marry my sister.

[03:30:22] But this says well, there's still a live. Whether I'm alive or dead. No, no, no, no. I got you. I got you. But definitely not why you're alive. If you're going to do it, we do I'm dead. But don't do it.

[03:30:34] Like if I am dead. Say him like this is like extra bad. This is extra. It's like degrees of how fucked up are you, sir? Yeah. Right. All right. So no, right? You should not know. Okay. Okay. Um, you're right because in Leviticus it says neither shout.

[03:30:50] Now take a wife to her sister to vex her to uncover her nakedness beside the other in her lifetime. Okay. Don't fucking do it. Don't fuck her sister. Right. Yeah. But guess what? I'm wrong. We're always wrong.

[03:31:04] Both of us on this one. Because yeah, it's totally okay to marry your sister, your wife's sister while your wife is still alive. This is true. It's like you, where's the sad? Genesis and

[03:31:14] is he killed? We read Genesis first. Okay. Jacob said unto Leban give me my wife for my days or fulfilled that I may go in under her and Leban took Leah his daughter and brought her to him.

[03:31:26] And he went in under her and he gave him Rachel his daughter to wife also. Because remember that was that story where Jacob worked for like ten hundred years or whatever to marry

[03:31:40] the one that he wanted to marry which was Rebecca and Rachel. Rachel, but the dad like tricked him and gave him Rachel's sister, Leah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And so then he had to marry Leah.

[03:31:57] And the way that that story was pitched to us. It doesn't sound as bad because like he was supposed to marry Rachel, right? Yeah. And then this dad is like no you're going to take this girl

[03:32:10] and then you're going to marry her and he's like fuck dude I was I'm one of the married Rachel and he's like it seemed like a natural like I don't know he was meant to be with Rachel, right?

[03:32:21] So we accepted the story in that context. But like when you say it in the context of he married his wife's sister, that's pretty fucked up. So it's a fucked up scenario.

[03:32:32] I think anytime you have a range marriage is it's going to be fucked up. Yeah. Exactly. And the problem goes even further because then when he and Rachel can't have children, yeah. He fucks the hell out of Leah and both Leah and Rachel's handmaids. Right. And God

[03:32:51] endorses all this and then God impregnates Rachel. Right. Yeah. After he's fucked everybody and had a thousand babies with all of them, then God's like just kidding here Rachel you can have

[03:33:07] a baby now. Right. He didn't impregnator it was no you're right but he allowed her to be impregnated. He flipped the switch and her fucking uterus something. Yeah. It just it bothers me. It bothers me

[03:33:20] that oh you could have done that the whole fucking time. Right. And then it also bothers me because Jacob has to have children so bad that he has to fuck the wife he didn't want and both of their

[03:33:32] mates. Yeah. Like that's so gross. No I agree. I agree. The the entire story is very questionable with regard to morality and ethics and everything else and the fact that God endorses much of that is

[03:33:45] very weird and questionable as well. And this right here is some of the stuff that the right wants to bring back. The right yeah. Project 2025. Yeah. Yeah. It is they want to take away women's

[03:34:04] right to vote. Right. That has been stated now by several Republican dofices. Right. They want to take away women's right to vote and they want to make women be property of men. And that's

[03:34:19] just leads right into men being able to have more than one life. Right. And you know well they're at it go ahead and fuck their daughters too. You know? That's fun. Yeah. Just fuck everything. All you

[03:34:30] need is a whole. That you are you are a smart guy who is big dicked and wonderful and yet all you need is a fucking whole. That's all you want in your life. You just want to put your dick in a

[03:34:45] whole. Anything. Okay yeah. Go and on. Yeah. I'm just going off because that is just gross. It's gross. No. I agree. Okay. Sorry moving on. Moving on. So okay so that was the yes it's perfectly fine.

[03:35:04] No wait. No it's not perfectly fine. Yeah it's not perfectly fine but God said it was. Yeah right. In more than one place including a Zeekeel. Right. So okay number seven. Okay.

[03:35:17] Can God be seen? I mean he says he will solve this glory but it was in a dream so I'm going to go with no actually this time because people saw him. What where when? Moses saw him face the face.

[03:35:33] No I know. And Zeekeel saw his groin but that was again in his dream. Is his. Okay. Okay. All right so you're going with no. This time I'm going to go with no.

[03:35:45] All right. I think you've gone with yes. I've gone with yes in the past. All right so in Exodus it says there's no man seen me and live. Right. So if you see me you'll die fuckers. Sure. So there's that.

[03:35:57] But then in Genesis it says. My name shall be called no more Jacob but Israel so that's when Jacob gets his new name for as a prince has to die power with God and with men and has prevailed

[03:36:11] and Jacob called the name of the place Peniel for I have seen God based at face and my life is preserved. So all right. I'm just saying Jacob saw his face. That's what we hear yeah. And then

[03:36:26] Exodus it says and the Lord spoke to Moses face to face as a man speak of to his friend. Got it. So then there's two dudes now granted both of those are in the Peniel to which is all

[03:36:39] stories and not like actual history. Right so go ahead back and and more over when we were talking about Jacob and everything and we were we were talking about tribes we weren't even talking about

[03:36:52] people. Actually people it's a it's pre history. Yeah so it's interesting how they interject these things into that. Right you know the way that they they told these stories and how the

[03:37:05] Scott appears to these tribes or whatever the fuck the case is. Yeah but it's interesting how that all works out. So yeah I don't really know what to say about it other than it's all really weird.

[03:37:15] It is all really weird. Yeah and then in as Ezekiel it says this was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the Lord and when I saw it I fell upon my face so yeah you're right.

[03:37:27] All right so I guess nobody did see God. Right right. I mean as long as we're not allowing for the dudes in the Penituc. Sure for being a pre history. Yeah. All right so nobody's wrong.

[03:37:41] Everybody's right and nobody saw God. And yeah we'll get to live. Wow okay all right. Now this one's this one's a doozy. Yeah. All right number eight. I haven't heard you say I'm always wrong

[03:37:53] for like two sections now. I know we'll get to it. Okay all right. I'll do it on this one. Okay yeah. Oh you're not gonna get this one right? No. Well I mean I'm supposed to always be wrong so. Yeah what is

[03:38:07] the correct recipe for the new moon sacrifice? The new moon sacrifice. Yeah there's one given in numbers and there's one given in Ezekiel. Oh okay all right and they're different and I'll read the difference

[03:38:22] between the two. Okay so just pick which one you think is right or Ezekiel. All right all right which one. I'm gonna go with Ezekiel. Really I would have gone with numbers because that's the more like

[03:38:35] that's where it started. That's where you got it from and you just copy down the recipe wrong. Yeah but I mean I mean Ezekiel saw wheels and eyeballs that's a point against your pace.

[03:38:47] And you know all kind of shit. That's a point against your case not for it. I know but he just seems like maybe had the good shit so you'd be clurdening out with. That is true. All right so in numbers

[03:38:58] the recipe was two Bullocks, one ram, seven lambs and a goat. Okay but in Ezekiel instead of two Bullocks it was just one. Both call for one ram. Numbers calls for seven lambs but in Ezekiel you

[03:39:13] only need six and Ezekiel does not call for a goat whereas there is a goat in numbers. You know the skate goat. Yeah all right yeah so that's very interesting. So if you go with Ezekiel's recipe

[03:39:28] then the interesting thing is that the priesties don't get any of the goat meat. Okay so are you sure that's what you want to do and they also get one less lamb. So they get less meat. Really

[03:39:41] give a shit. They also get one less bullock. Yeah I'm just thinking like he maybe they had less meat and that's why he's like cutting down his leg. Maybe God went on a diet. God went on a diet. I mean

[03:39:54] I'm just saying. There it is. I mean there's there has to be a reason why he cut down the recipe and he would he's one of the Zatakites that would be receiving this food right? Maybe these

[03:40:07] recipes weren't really that well known and it was just tradition that carried these through and at some point they chained you know what I mean like maybe he's just used to doing this

[03:40:15] so he's just writing down what he knows the position to be. Okay and so you know therefore that's what it is. All right but you get the wrong one regardless because I would have chosen

[03:40:26] the older one so you are always wrong. It's about how what's you would you? It's my game. It's my game. Yep yep. I'm the one that prepares this it's my game therefore I sing to you that you are wrong.

[03:40:38] Okay okay number nine is it always wrong to steal? No no explain to me why. Because sometimes you might be starving to death and you need something to eat for your family and

[03:40:52] and if you're not doing any harm to someone then what is it's not to me that's a victimless crime. Yeah. And if you're doing it for the right reasons there are there are times

[03:41:04] when it could make sure. Orally okay even if it's against the law. Yes. Sure I agree with that. We're not wrong on that. Right. Okay take time with a wounded hand because it likes to steal.

[03:41:16] Right. And it likes to heal. Sure. In another course. Okay so um you're right uh no it is not always wrong to steal. In Genesis Rachel had stolen the images that were her fathers. Hmm. Remember?

[03:41:33] And then yeah. Because that was good to take yeah. Right. The idols right there is the idol. Yes. Yes. And then in Exodus it says and the children of Israel did according to the word of Moses

[03:41:44] and they borrowed of the Egyptians and they spoiled the Egyptians so they stole all their shit when they left remember. Okay. And then we out the door they're like and I'll take that byee

[03:41:55] right. Right. Right. Yeah. And then in Ezekiel it says Israel should go forth and spoil those that spoiled them and rob those that robbed them. Say if the Lord God. So Rachel will literally

[03:42:09] tell them to go steal. Yes. That's funny. Mm-hmm. He's like and go be just as vindictive to those guys as I would be. Right. Yeah. Never in all the history. Especially considering that

[03:42:20] that's one of the commandments. You know like I'll be. Exactly. Of the 10 commandments only of which like four of them are relevant that are not based on what you're supposed to do with regard to acting

[03:42:30] around God for of the miraculous like laws and that's one of them and he's like telling them to break that law. But he uses the word spoil instead of steel and so that's how he gets around it

[03:42:41] and that's how Christians would apologize for it. I guess. It doesn't count if you hate them and you're like killing a whole city for being bad guys then it's just spoiling and that's not the same.

[03:42:53] Okay. All right. You go ahead and think that. Right. Okay but guess what? Um I'm wrong. You're always wrong. It's always wrong to steal. Always. Yeah. Um in Exodus it says thou shalt not steal. Obviously.

[03:43:08] In Leviticus it says ye shall not steal. Right. And then due to wrongly it says neither shout thou steal. Okay. So according to the Pentatook it's very bad. Don't do it ever. Unless God tells you

[03:43:22] to it then it's okay. But not even to feed your child. Right. Yeah. Don't do it. Right. All right. Number Ooh. What number are we on? I didn't write that down. Number 10. Yeah. This is number 10.

[03:43:33] All right. Is death final? Um yes. And it's from my perspective. Yeah and I agree with you. Yes. So in Joshua it says this day I Joshua I'm going the way of all the earth which means dead done. Okay. So

[03:43:48] Joshua agrees with you. Sure. Job which is more writing than actual like character like it's a story. Right. Not history even though it's written with the prophets in the Christian Bible.

[03:44:01] Says as the cloud is consumed and vanishes away so he that go with down to the grave shall come up no more. Okay. So all right. He's like when you're done you're done. Right. And then in Isaiah it says they are

[03:44:14] dead. They shall not live. They are deceased. They shall not rise. Yeah well I hear these words that you're telling me that are from the Bible. I tend to think that even as they were stating these statements

[03:44:27] that they only applied to those they didn't see as righteous to to some extent because Joshua was talking about himself. I am going the way of all the earth. No you're right you're right but I still

[03:44:40] still feel like there was some sense that there was some sort of an afterlife with most of these people and maybe I'm wrong. Maybe I'm wrong but like it they seem to allude to it quite a bit. I think that

[03:44:51] the only type of afterlife that they thought might exist would be the punishing one not the and you get the prize and go to heaven. Okay. So your questions were your choices were

[03:45:05] rest peacefully forever more and be dead and done or be punished for eternity. Okay. Right. Like that's my understanding and then Christians were like just kidding there's a third choice. Right. Right. And then Catholics were like and there's waiting rooms. Yeah yeah yeah yeah so I don't know

[03:45:24] about all that but anyway you're always wrong. Of course because no uh no no no death is not final. Okay. There's all kinds of afterlife okay. And Isaiah says thy dead men shall live together with

[03:45:40] my dead body shall they arise awake and seeing who do not let dead bodies sing. There's a lot of dead people that come back to life in the Bible. Yeah he that dwell in dust for thy do is as the

[03:45:53] do of herbs and the earth shall cast out the dead. Okay. And then in a zeiciel that says yeah because we would like zombies. Right. Like fuck this on the house. This was strong zombie scene. Yeah yeah.

[03:46:06] This was in the Valley of the Dry Bombs. Right. That gave me nightmares. The saith the Lord God. Behold, though my people I will open your fucking graves and cause you to come up out of your fucking

[03:46:21] graves and bring you into the land of Israel. Mm hmm. Absolutely not sir. Now again that one specifically I remember we could be just read it was more of a um the idea of bringing them back

[03:46:34] from captivity and it was they were just using the imagery to portray that idea which okay but it still reads like zombie apocalypse. Yeah. You're not okay with that. Not okay with that.

[03:46:50] And for a final question it's less a question and more an observation. Okay. The 12 tribes of Israel could possibly name them. Oh no but I'm gonna give it a shot here. Okay so we'll

[03:47:05] hold on hold on let me I'm gonna mark them as you go but I can tell you which ones that you miss. Sure. Okay. Obviously my favorite is Dan. Dan the man. Dan yeah. Okay. Let's see we got Judah. Okay.

[03:47:20] We got Benjamin. Yes. Yeah. Sorry sorry sorry. That's right. Trying to keep up okay. Yeah Vanessa. Okay. We got Gad. That's that's one of them right. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I just I gotta find it.

[03:47:34] Yes. Uh yeah. You saw is one of I think? No. No that's not one of them. Oh no. Shit. I don't know why I was thinking that that's somebody that was in the Bible though. Yes. There is one that's close to that

[03:47:47] name. Is someone's Jacob's brother. Yeah he was the one that wrestled God in the desert or something like that. Um let's see here. Man I am okay. Think about who are the priests? The priests.

[03:48:00] The priests. Who are the priests? Yes. Okay but they don't leave. Leave. Oh leave. That was a tribe? Yes. Oh wait a second. Okay so there was a tribe of leave. I When okay that's okay. All right. We'll talk about a few minutes. Okay yeah.

[03:48:23] Think about the Sandwich. Oh Ruben. Ruben yeah yeah. I'm just giving you clues. Yeah no I appreciate it but but the fact that you know who I'm talking about

[03:48:33] that's I'm not trying to trick you. Yeah. You know what I mean? No I think I'm kind of at my Whitsend with regards to the rest of them because I don't remember. But you know some of these.

[03:48:42] Okay. I know I know that might have to be the main thing about the guy that was- It's a car. I knew that one. Yeah I would not have assumed that. Right but I just came to me.

[03:48:54] I was you know inspiration. So think about the guy. Remember Jacob had like all these sons right? All these are his sons. Yeah. And one of his sons, all the other brothers were jealous of

[03:49:07] because this Jacob. No Jacob's the father. Oh yeah right. It does start with a J. Yeah no I know let's see and you had a coat right? Yes. The color coat. Yes the drink coat. Yeah. And he went to

[03:49:22] Egypt and became Pharaoh's dude. Right yeah I don't remember. Think of one of my exes. Oh my god. Oh my gosh. I don't. Joseph. Joseph thank you. Okay. I was trying really hard. Yeah no I appreciate it.

[03:49:44] Okay so Joseph had two sons. One of which was Manasa? Yeah. Who was the other one? I don't remember. E from. E from yeah. That's the one that you were thinking of when you said

[03:49:57] E song. Right right. Let's see if there's any other that I think you might know probably not because no you would not. Very these are them. Yeah you wouldn't guess these.

[03:50:07] Right Simon is one. Okay you wouldn't have guessed that. No I would. Asher. Right oh I should have got that one because I I equated that one to brim full of asher which is a song by Corner Shop so yeah.

[03:50:18] Zebulon. Zebulon that was the name you liked yeah. Okay. And Nephtolly. Nephtolly. All right. So you would not have guessed those four. No I probably would not have. Now how many did we name?

[03:50:31] 13. Actually 14. Really. Okay. So um wait. Yeah 14. Because Joseph is the actual dude that's on the list of 12. Oh. But if you take him out of the equation and replace him with his two sons. E from Mnasa.

[03:50:55] Yeah. Those two so that makes 14 or that makes 12. Okay. All right. And on some list Levi has left out because they're the priests. Right. So um that is very interesting because

[03:51:15] remember we were talking about at the end of Zekeel how the Levi's get a gate on this new thing. Right. And though they're not really a tribe but they kind of are a tribe. Right. So whereas E from Mn

[03:51:30] was a cad to two sons of men. Mnasa. Mnasa. Sorry. Yeah. They they get combined into one gate for Joseph. Exactly to keep it in even 12. Yeah. Something that's really interesting is that on top of

[03:51:46] Levi being left out and these tribes are listed in several different places. In most of them in most of the places throughout the Old Testament what we just said, the math math. Got it.

[03:52:00] Okay. So you know whether you're including Levi or not or whether you're using Joseph or his two sons or sometimes Joseph and his two sons. Right. The math always maths. Sure. It's always

[03:52:12] 12. Whatever. Right. But in some places Levi is not mentioned at all. Right. And then let's see. What it sounds to me like in Zekeel especially like the Zatokites are becoming their own thing too.

[03:52:27] So like we might add another one at some point if we continue done that road. Right. I have no I'm not like if we kept talking about tribes eventually maybe they'd be their own. Yeah. That's what it sounds

[03:52:37] like. It sounds like they took over the role of the Levi which is kind of gross. I'm like stop. Yeah. It is again politics. I mean yeah it's just unlike the Levi's have been in charge

[03:52:50] of the fucking arc forever and they were listed in the Bible as the dudes that can carry it. Only they can touch it. Who's to the fuck? Do you think you are my good sirs? Right. But then

[03:53:02] the arc kind of disappeared and then we got into some other shit and then I think it was in actually Jeremiah where they were like well the Levi it's kind of fell apart and we're going to

[03:53:13] re-apportion how they you know how they how they were just going to assign people to be Levi's right and then then and then Ezekiel specifically is like yeah just the Zatokites. It says the Zatokites

[03:53:25] are the most special so yeah and there were some there was some upheaval with Shgar to the Levi's or whatever. Yeah but it's interesting that they just kind of disappear a tribe from responsible responsibility you know so that it is very interesting. Interesting.

[03:53:42] In the book of Revelation which we have not reached yet obviously Dan is missing from the list even though he's on all the other one. Dan yeah. Dan is the man. In Deuteronomy Simon is missing from the list one time. Yeah. Interesting and that's it yeah.

[03:54:01] So I just they're gonna get their tribes right. Yeah so whereas that's not a contradiction or no whereas that's not a year always wrong that is a contradiction in another itself. Sure there's not always referred to the same way and the fact that they constantly talk about the

[03:54:20] 12 tribes when we can't even agree on what the 12 tribes tribes are. Right. It's problematic. Exactly. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. All right. Was that all the I think that mostly everybody agrees that

[03:54:33] in place of Joseph you use his sons and you take the Levi's out and then the rest makes that 12. I think that's what makes the most sense to me. That makes the most sense to me as well but that's not

[03:54:45] what's on the temple. Right. So maybe we're wrong but doing it that way does include all of the names by explaining how you reach that conclusion. Sure. There's still in the definition.

[03:55:00] So it's the most accurate probably. That's that's the way I feel. Sure. So that's the way I would refer to them if I was going to which I'm not because I can't remember that shit. Right. Right.

[03:55:11] Well do we have any other contradictions today or was that the end of them? That was the end of them. All right. I mean I'm probably I'm sure there's some other way you didn't know about it but you know

[03:55:21] just basic stuff. Yeah there was a couple of there was a couple of how many of this in that and like fuck that I don't remember. Right. There was a couple of who said blah blah or who's related to

[03:55:35] right. I'm like fuck you. I don't know. Yeah. So like if I don't have a good shot of answering it or I think it's a stupid trivial contradiction I ain't going to say it. Got it got it. All right. Well

[03:55:47] that is our contradictions episode for Azikyo which means that we are fucking done. Bye. No more Azikyo. Easy Kyle be done. All right. That being said I'm going to get the weekly wrap

[03:56:01] about here shortly and we will be back on Monday with Daniel chapter one. All right. We'll see you then.
