Jeremiah Chapter 30: Atheist Bible Study

Jeremiah Chapter 30: Atheist Bible Study

Prepare to dive headfirst into the stormy waters of biblical criticism with your favorite irreverent atheist duo as we tear into the snooze-fest that is Jeremiah Chapter 30. We're taking no prisoners and sparing no holy cows, because let's face it – if there's one thing the Bible's good for, it's providing ample material for a roasting session. Join us as we dissect the so-called "Book of Consolation" and ask the burning question: is it truly a comforting pat on the back from the almighty, or just another tiresome list of doomsday predictions that Jeremiah seems to get a little too excited about?


Get ready for a whirlwind – both literally, with the storm outside, and figuratively, as we tackle the text that's about as consoling as a wet blanket. From the hilarious mix-up of chapter placements in the Septuagint (because who doesn't love a divine game of "Where's Waldo?") to the puzzling idea of a zombie King David, we're breaking down scripture like it's the walls of Jericho. And we don't need no ram's horn – just pure, unadulterated snark.


And because no biblical banter is complete without a contemporary twist, we're wading into the murky waters of LGBTQIA+ acceptance in religious communities. We've got tributes, trans experiences, and yes, even a 'Zombie David' – because nothing says "modern sensibilities" like a resurrected monarch shambling about, right?


So if you're looking for a hot take on ancient prophecies, a side of LGBTQIA+ perspectives, and the connection between whirlwinds, Jesus, and potential podcasting power outages, you've come to the right place. Don't miss our take on Jeremiah Chapter 30 – it's an episode that promises to be more electrifying than the storm that's threatening to knock out our power. And that's saying something.



Remember to subscribe for more blasphemous banter and divine debunking – because if we're going to hell, we might as well have fun on the way down. See you in the fiery depths, or, you know, next episode – whichever comes first.

[00:01:16] Welcome to sacrilegious discourse. I'm husband and I'm wife. Together we're reading the

[00:01:20] Bible for the very first time. We grew up without religion and wanted to know what all the fuss was about.

[00:01:26] Well, what did we learn so far? That God is a dick and apparently some people believe in talking

[00:01:31] donkeys. We're not trying to pass ourselves off as experts. Nope, we're just reading the Bible for

[00:01:36] the first time and giving our first take reaction. If you'd like to join us in this venture

[00:01:40] you might consider starting at episode one. Otherwise jump in wherever you like. All right let's go read the

[00:01:45] Bible. Yeah let's get to it. Husband, wife. Do you remember what happened yesterday and where the

[00:01:54] hell we are today? Well yesterday we just got done reading Jeremiah chapter 29. That is correct.

[00:02:00] And in that one Jeremiah was sending letters. He was he's he's reached out to the postman.

[00:02:06] We had some epistles up in there. Yeah we had some epistles not apostles epistles. Right. Yeah

[00:02:11] and he sent messages to the people that were already in exile. And he's like yeah y'all coming back

[00:02:18] so get comfy. You know how kids get married, you know all that shit. Buckle down for the long haul

[00:02:24] multiplying. Right just be just get comfy over there. Your home now? Yeah. And then then he wrote a

[00:02:29] letter to the people that didn't get over there and he's like y'all fucked. And also I heard what

[00:02:35] you done said about me. Right and I told God to get you and he won't get you. Right right. Yeah

[00:02:41] so that was basically Jeremiah chapter 29. Yes. Which means that today we're getting into. Jeremiah chapter 30.

[00:02:48] Oh right let's do this. Okey dokey.

[00:02:50] All right here we are hopping into Jeremiah chapter 30. Okay. And guess what? Oh what?

[00:03:06] This book or this chapter is numbered as Jeremiah 37. In the Septuagint. Septuagint.

[00:03:14] Which is the Greek version of the Greek translation. But we don't know whether or not that's

[00:03:20] just because there's extra shit in that one or if it's because it's in the wrong order. Yeah

[00:03:25] we don't really know why that's the case. Yeah I haven't really looked too hard into that so. Right

[00:03:29] but when we keep bringing it up though we should probably look into it. Probably. Because I am a

[00:03:34] little bit curious since you keep mentioning it. I know like y'all just stapled a shit in the

[00:03:38] wrong order. Not like overly curious but somewhat curious. It's just that somewhere between like the

[00:03:44] original Hebrew and then the Latin and the Arabic and the Greek versions. All the versions. Like

[00:03:54] I'm just kind of like over it and I'm like yeah so basically everybody who translated it into a

[00:04:00] different language they kind of messed it up a little bit and then it traveled down through

[00:04:07] history from there. Right. So yes there might be a different reason and we should look into that

[00:04:13] but I'm guessing that that's all we're going to find. Right but I only mentioned it because you

[00:04:17] keep mentioning it. I keep mentioning it because I figure it's an interesting note. Just FYI. Okay

[00:04:25] that's basically what it is like just as an FYI here's some information in case you find it important.

[00:04:31] I don't somebody might. Okay. All right that is the first note that I have, the second note that

[00:04:37] I have. Do you like how suddenly it like all the way up to Jeremiah? I didn't really start with

[00:04:43] notes. Right. Then with Jeremiah comes along and I'm starting to like have to each chapter comes

[00:04:50] with its own prefaces. Right. Right. Yeah. Okay so second note. I mean it jumps all over the

[00:04:55] fucking place. It really does. Chapter's 30 through 33 so starting today. Yeah. Have been

[00:05:02] referred to as the book of consolation. Ah okay. All right. I guess it's supposed to mean that like

[00:05:10] good shit is coming to the remnant. Sure. Yeah. And I don't know if that's what we call them

[00:05:16] anymore like is that what I don't know what you know who I'm talking about the good grapes,

[00:05:20] the good figs. Right. The ones that went ahead and went into exile that it's not going to kill.

[00:05:24] Yeah. Yeah. The high class skilled artisans and whatnot. Yeah. Yeah. Them guys. I guess some

[00:05:31] goods gonna come to him. You know he likes to say that he takes care of the poor but he's like

[00:05:35] he's not doing that here. I know he's like except for the ones I left behind which is all of them.

[00:05:39] Right. Yeah. Yeah. All right. The word is not the bird. No. Bird is not the word. Right. The word

[00:05:46] that came to Jeremiah from the Lord saying thus speaks the Lord God of Israel saying write in a book

[00:05:53] for yourself all the words that I have spoken to you. That caught you unaware. We're sitting here

[00:06:02] reading the book of Jeremiah and like now we're referencing the fact that he's going to write a book.

[00:06:07] Yeah. Write it down. Write it down. Yeah. For behold, the Dees are comments as the Lord

[00:06:13] that I will bring back from captivity. My people Israel and Judah says the Lord. He says he says

[00:06:21] let me ask this because all the words I've heard God tell Jeremiah have all been like y'all

[00:06:26] fucked. There's no like he's not talking about how to live, how to operate in the world. He's

[00:06:33] just like y'all better repent or you're all fucked. Hate you hate you hate you. You're okay I guess

[00:06:40] there's really nothing of substance for when they come back. If you made it back then you're all

[00:06:45] good and don't fuck up again I guess but don't there's no laws to follow in what Jeremiah said

[00:06:53] it's all that previous shit. Yeah. Really there's not much to write down. You know what?

[00:06:57] I just realized like we could totally do without this entire book because it adds nothing. It's so far

[00:07:02] yeah. With regard to like how to live, how to be a follower of God. This is just some dude

[00:07:08] like really happy that God is talking to him about correct prophecies apparently. And he gets

[00:07:14] to be vengeful in God's name right and that's that's always exciting. I mean it is questionable whether

[00:07:19] he's whether or not he's making these things happen the way you know I mean like that he might be

[00:07:23] able to he might be able to be able to be still possibility. Yeah the more than I thought about it

[00:07:27] after you brought that up last night was it last night or the night before? I don't know it was

[00:07:31] recently very recent. I was like my guy is totally in on this right yeah. I'm a believer now

[00:07:39] that is what I believe I'm a believer. Okay so the Lord continues and I will cause them to return

[00:07:45] to the land that it gave to their fathers and they shall possess it. Okay right. Keep saying

[00:07:51] that you got anything new this chapter now these okay so that was the end of his quote. Now these coming

[00:07:58] up are the words that the Lord spoke concerning Israel and Judah. Okay so now God's talking

[00:08:04] and Jeremiah is right in the ship. This future Israel and Judah are current we'll find out I guess.

[00:08:11] For thus says the Lord we have heard a voice of trembling of fear and not of peace well yeah

[00:08:18] because God's like war war war war war war kill killed the word of God right that we're reading

[00:08:23] right here he's literally the one causing it. Why is he this you know why? I know why because

[00:08:29] it's not actually God but like this is so ridiculous. Yeah it's like they were so cute back then

[00:08:34] before they could think things through logically right like this isn't how God would talk about

[00:08:38] himself about what he's doing not at all ask now and see whether a man is ever in labor with a child

[00:08:46] here we go men usurping women's pain during childbirth I guess but but being the simplest of

[00:08:53] there is no no that doesn't really happen I mean they have found way I think there is a way

[00:08:59] that they can actually a man can carry a child but cannot give birth but that is discounting

[00:09:07] the trans experience and I do want to say that there can be trans women or no trans men who can

[00:09:19] become pregnant obviously because their bodies are still I was not I didn't know if they could go

[00:09:24] the full I wasn't aware of that actually I guess no I think you're thinking that I'm talking about

[00:09:29] oh oh oh I'm sorry a person yes it's yes yes I was born I wasn't following correctly yeah I know

[00:09:36] okay you were you were backwards yep I was exactly yeah understood well I mean I started out

[00:09:41] backward so I had to like think it through right I apologize I am still we still learning we're

[00:09:47] still learning and we have a kid that identifies as trans so yeah I mean that's what we want to learn

[00:09:53] we want to learn and I think that that is the you know we we talk about this all the time there's

[00:09:58] there's people in our lives that that make an effort not not the best efforts but they make an effort

[00:10:04] they care they care and they ask questions and they they read a lot and that means enough you know

[00:10:12] like that's that's right because they care and because they want to care and the boomers so I

[00:10:17] mean that means a lot more right when a boomer makes that kind of effort I'm sorry it does mean

[00:10:23] something because boomers can't try a lot when it comes to like learning new concepts I am I'm

[00:10:29] gonna say I have to try myself but right but I do care it is harder than a question you know it

[00:10:35] is harder for a boomer than a Gen X right and it's harder for a Gen X than it is for a millennial yeah

[00:10:41] and it's hardly difficult at all for a millennial much less a Gen Z right so I mean

[00:10:48] I'm just saying credit to the boomers out there who are trying because we recognize that y'all were

[00:10:55] born without color TV and so you didn't have the internet like it's harder for you right you know

[00:11:04] we at least kind of had it introduced to us as children as Gen X not like totally immersed in

[00:11:15] it or anything like we are now I was gonna say I didn't really know anything about even LGBTQIA

[00:11:21] until AIDS that would be called it AIDS back to HIV hit back in I mean like that's my first

[00:11:28] exposure was in the 80s yeah but that's what I mean like you and I were children in the 80s so

[00:11:35] we were exposed earlier than boomers were to okay the phenomenon of the LGBTQ experience on

[00:11:43] the slightest level right yeah on a grand scale they were not right and so we're way off topic here

[00:11:51] but we just want to put out there that the trans experience counts and that you know

[00:11:57] whatever your experience may be yes sorry okay ask now and see whether a man is ever in labor

[00:12:04] with a child so why do I see every man with his hands on his loins like a woman in laborer in all

[00:12:10] faces term pale I don't I don't know what because they scared and crying oh okay you know

[00:12:17] God's a comment Babylon's a comment I don't I don't feel like that's what's happened I don't either

[00:12:21] I really don't no matter how much the prophets say it the reactions that they tell me that the

[00:12:29] people are doing to the things that they're saying they're unrealistic well they don't they don't

[00:12:33] match up right yeah like I mean there's not they don't act scared of Yahweh right they they do

[00:12:40] act scared of like you know people coming to kill them yeah but that's not indicative of God

[00:12:47] commanding it right it's just the reality that is in front of them so I don't it doesn't match up

[00:12:54] they they claim that this is what's happening but I've not actually seen that in practice when

[00:12:59] they talk about the people right so in general right no I'm with you yeah okay so here is what

[00:13:07] God says that the people are saying a last for that day is great so that none is like it

[00:13:13] and it is the time of Jacob's trouble but right here in River City but he shall be saved out of it

[00:13:21] for it shall come to pass in that day says the Lord of hosts that I will break his yoke from your neck

[00:13:28] and will burst your bonds probably also your bubbles foreigners shall no more enslave them oh

[00:13:35] I missed an opportunity I could have said and also your cherries burst cherries okay I guess you

[00:13:42] pop cherries yeah okay I take it back rewind take it back okay anyway burst your bonds and your

[00:13:50] bubbles foreigners shall no more enslave them but they shall serve the Lord their God and David

[00:13:56] their king whom I will raise up for them hmm zombie David yeah that's an odd statement actually

[00:14:02] right I mean it's it's always been like the line of David but like these literally same David David

[00:14:07] gonna walk that's weird I mean I guess it makes sense if you're saying that you stopped the line

[00:14:13] right he's gotta he's gotta bring him back somehow I guess right I guess zombie David is gonna be a

[00:14:18] thing huh you know right he's gonna resurrect David is Jesus zombie David or is zombie David a Messiah

[00:14:26] still yet to come right right okay okay so I've always said that I'm scared of zombies and we have

[00:14:37] read about zombies more than once now in the Bible yeah that is a little it's got me a little bit

[00:14:44] unnerved speaking of fanfic you know like wow wow zombie David you know yeah that would be that

[00:14:52] would be a good one that would be a good one oh I'm I wish I was a stronger storyteller that I could

[00:14:59] take all these great ideas and spin them into the novels they deserve right and that some producer

[00:15:06] would pick them up there's like a whole franchise waiting to have there really is there really is

[00:15:11] we've got some good stuff here y'all you I mean you could go off on the Bible yeah yeah go ham so

[00:15:18] speak right that was that was rude that was rude I acknowledge that that's on me all right so zombie

[00:15:25] David coming okay yeah therefore do not fear oh my servant Jacob says the Lord nor be dismayed

[00:15:32] is real for behold I will save you from afar and your seed from the land of their captivity

[00:15:40] Jacob shall return have rest and be quiet and no one shall make him afraid except for God right

[00:15:48] because you gotta always fear God you gotta be a fear to God never not be afraid yes

[00:15:52] for I am with you says the Lord to save you though I make a full end of all nations where I have

[00:15:59] scattered you yet I will not make a complete end of you I'm gonna I'm gonna blow y'all away

[00:16:06] in a tornado let your land where you land and then eventually in a few hundred years or whatever

[00:16:15] right because that's how I am yeah then I'll draw you back home yeah so don't be scared when

[00:16:22] when I'm kicking your ass and beating you up and making you go places I personally think that the

[00:16:28] fucking reset button for his people is way too close to his hand uh-huh because he hits in all the

[00:16:34] goddamn time he's got the code to the nukes and it is not okay right yeah he doesn't need like a

[00:16:41] secondary rare occasion or anything he's just sitting there smashing that fucking button like

[00:16:46] we all recognize that this is a power that no man should have so we make it where you both have to

[00:16:53] have like keys that you turn at the same time right right you have to have another person who

[00:16:59] verifies with a separate code word that you don't have access to like there's always at least two

[00:17:05] people that have to set these things off right but not God no he's like die die boom new and really

[00:17:12] based on his personality he really should have some sort of like a he needs fail safe like back up way

[00:17:18] of not having to hit the button all the time you know what he needs a cabinet he needs yeah first

[00:17:23] of all he needs to put his fucking bomb away into a cabinet yes but that's not the cabinet I was

[00:17:28] referring to he needs a cabinet of people a team that he has to answer to or pass his ideas by yeah

[00:17:36] yeah right and not just you know be able to just like hit no and me no and me no and me stop

[00:17:44] right you know what I mean like he needs to stop yes okay yet I will not make a complete end of

[00:17:50] you but I will correct you injustice and will not let you go altogether unpunished I'm gonna

[00:17:56] bring you home but I am gonna kick your ass for a few hundred years sure yeah don't worry you'll be

[00:18:01] okay but I feel like he's gonna have the same problems though because they've been away in a foreign

[00:18:05] land for a long time which means they're gonna pick up habits that you just like you thought that

[00:18:09] they were doing bad god shit then right yeah it's only gonna get worse my friend yeah like God

[00:18:16] I we need to have a talk I don't think you're smart yeah you're doing this you're doing this

[00:18:22] correctly mm-hmm for thus says the Lord okay ready your affliction is incurable your wound is severe

[00:18:31] that means you're gonna die right I mean it sounds that way yeah you're bleeding out right there's

[00:18:35] no one to plead your cause that you may be bound up you have no healing medicines all your

[00:18:42] lovers have forgotten you that would be damn that would be the the nations close to okay like

[00:18:49] the outlying nation yeah we're talking about and a allegorical right yeah they do not seek you for

[00:18:56] I have wounded you with the wound of an enemy with the chastisement of a cruel one for the multitude

[00:19:04] of your iniquities because your sins have increased why do you cry about your fucking affliction

[00:19:11] your sorrow is incurable he's like I only stabbed you a hundred times why are you praying also

[00:19:18] clean up that fucking mess yeah like I hate that guy oh yeah yeah no I mean that that we've discussed

[00:19:24] this we even if God were real like the God and the Bible real yeah he's a dick he's a narcissist

[00:19:30] in the clinical sense right right because of the multitude of your iniquities because your

[00:19:36] sins have increased I've done these things to you you know I'm a dick I can why not yeah

[00:19:42] therefore all those who devour you shall be devoured so I mean you suck I hate you obviously

[00:19:50] they'll kill them yeah I mean I'll kill them eventually but I'm gonna let him rough you up a bit

[00:19:53] I mean I made them do this thing where they took you but I told him way back when I was gonna

[00:19:58] kill him when I was done so now we gotta kill him I really I could stop them but I really really

[00:20:05] like the idea of them taking your wives and raping them and that kind of thing I really like that

[00:20:12] idea you know and I like the idea of you going into slavery and losing your identity I do I'm

[00:20:21] God and that is what I like right like why why because I can because I God can yeah I was actually

[00:20:29] gonna say the exact same thing because he can right right no that's that's why we climb mountains

[00:20:34] because we can right we don't kill people just because we can but but again none of the essentially

[00:20:42] that none of this is true because it was just things were different back then right you know

[00:20:47] there was a lot of conquering happen there was a lot of fighting over lands and there was a lot

[00:20:52] of like culture wars and like literal culture wars you know and these things were much more horrific

[00:21:01] back then because it was hand-to-hand combat it was personal it was right in your face you know

[00:21:07] you didn't get to drop bombs on people and shit like that right right so this was just a reality

[00:21:13] of the time and these people are trying to explain it away with a God that has a reason for it

[00:21:18] and there is no fucking reason for it mm-hmm just sucks it's stupid it's all done I hate it this

[00:21:24] bible's pissing me off only because it's it's trying to come up with reasons it's trying to

[00:21:30] it's trying to give religious reasons to politics yes and I hate that right politics is shitty not

[00:21:37] Christianity wasn't a thing if religion in general wasn't as big of a thing I wouldn't really give

[00:21:43] a shit and there's some nice little nuggets in here you could glean about history sometimes don't

[00:21:49] murder each other that's not I didn't even mean that I meant historically okay you could learn

[00:21:54] about what happened in those days got it based on some of the information in the bible it is a

[00:21:59] it is to some extent a bit of a historical document sure you know not not in the way that we

[00:22:06] write them today right but you definitely could learn some things from it historically the way you

[00:22:10] look at the different things that we dig up in archaeology on any other culture yeah yeah yeah okay

[00:22:18] and all your adversaries every one of them shall go into captivity so the ones that took them

[00:22:25] captive captive are now going to go eventually yeah sometime after the 70 years who's capturing

[00:22:32] them exactly I don't know each other those who plunder you shall become plunder and all who pray

[00:22:39] upon you I will make a prey for I will restore health to you and heal you of your wounds says the

[00:22:47] Lord because they called you an outcast saying this is Zion no one seeks her thus says the Lord

[00:22:55] behold I will bring back the captivity of Jacob's tents I love when Jacob pitches a tent the

[00:23:02] captivity of Jacob's tents okay all right and have mercy on his dwelling places the city shall be built

[00:23:10] upon its own mound and the palace shall remain according to its own plan okay then out of them

[00:23:19] shall proceed Thanksgiving and the voice of those who make Mary that's me make a Mary

[00:23:26] they're gonna come back me like all right God finally gave us back our town

[00:23:37] this until the next time he takes away you don't you hum Tetris when you're making Mary total yeah

[00:23:42] That's exactly what you do. I will multiply them and they shall not diminish. They go fuck.

[00:23:48] They're gonna fuck so hard they're gonna make babies, right? Okay. Yeah

[00:23:52] I will also glorify them and they shall not be small

[00:23:56] Okay, I'm just gonna interrupt myself real quick here

[00:23:59] That if we run into some audio problems is because there is a serious mother fucking storm brewing outside

[00:24:05] Yeah

[00:24:05] And there are trees beating against our window

[00:24:08] So if we lose power

[00:24:10] I'm just letting you know in advance that that is a thing that could happen

[00:24:14] So it is okay. All right, and you know maybe God strikes us

[00:24:18] We do a fucking podcast every day. Oh no

[00:24:21] You wait three years, right? It's not it's more than that. It's almost four years

[00:24:26] You waited four years like what was what was the thing that finally was one one thing too far right?

[00:24:32] Did I say you're a dick one too many times?

[00:24:36] Geez

[00:24:37] Their children shall also wait and mess that up their children also shall be as before and their congregation

[00:24:46] Shall be established before me and I will punish all who will press them

[00:24:50] Oh your children will be free and stuff like that sure okay there nobles shall be from among them

[00:24:56] And their governor shall come from their midst

[00:25:00] And I will cause him to draw near and he shall approach me for who is this who pledged his heart to approach me

[00:25:08] Says the Lord you shall be my people and I will be your God

[00:25:12] I forced you to agree to that remember and that's that's what we're agreeing to we're talking about the future when he released

[00:25:18] The amount of captivity right and we're just assuming that they're gonna come back and be like yay

[00:25:23] God

[00:25:24] And like take him back and like worship him and everything's going to be just wonderful right

[00:25:29] I just want to like right now right this second

[00:25:33] I want to jump into where they come back and hear that story yeah because it never fucking works out that way

[00:25:38] Like how that workout for you God with your with your power of foresight

[00:25:42] Right did you see it coming? It's never perfect. There's I guarantee whenever they came back

[00:25:48] Mm-hmm, they were shitty again. Yeah

[00:25:51] There's something else that happened the people sucked the neighbors sucked the religion sucked God sucked right

[00:25:57] You know what collectively they all suck yeah, I bet they still have their fucking share of pulls and shit right up all on into

[00:26:05] Babylon right and then brought him back home. Yeah

[00:26:09] Behold the whirlwind of the Lord goes forth with fury it does right in my backyard

[00:26:15] Yeah, I feel like they really like that word whirlwind in the

[00:26:19] In this book tumble. It's been it's been used a lot. Uh-huh. Yes

[00:26:23] A continuing whirlwind it will fall violently on the head of the wicked

[00:26:28] Okay, all right

[00:26:30] The fierce anger of the Lord will not return until he has done it and until he has performed the intense of his heart

[00:26:38] In the latter days you will consider it the end

[00:26:43] In the latter days

[00:26:45] L-A-T-T-E-R not like climb a ladder

[00:26:48] I got that I just try to figure out what we're discussing like he's discussing when they come back, right?

[00:26:53] And he's like you're gonna see and we also kind of discussed a zombie David yeah

[00:26:57] And we discussed that they're all gonna love God

[00:27:01] And so it almost feels like this is

[00:27:04] prophesizing the

[00:27:06] The it's almost like a Jesus prophecy only without Jesus involved

[00:27:10] That's exactly what the Christians say it was except with

[00:27:15] Jesus

[00:27:17] Can't be right okay, okay well in my opinion it cannot be right because what the prophecy is thus far with Jeremiah

[00:27:26] Is that they are gonna be captive with Babylon for 70 years right and the timeframe works out to where that does not mean

[00:27:32] Jesus in any way whatsoever right right and here we are talking about the return of them

[00:27:38] And since we're still in Jeremiah

[00:27:41] We're obviously in my opinion talking about the return from Babylon

[00:27:46] When God is gonna punish the people that took them captive and everything like that

[00:27:51] We're not talking about Jesus, but it sounds very very much

[00:27:55] Like the Jesus story yeah, and and I see

[00:27:58] I

[00:27:59] Know you're saying in your head. Yep. That's what they take this as the Jesus story

[00:28:04] But it doesn't you're saying but they shouldn't though

[00:28:07] They shouldn't there's no reason to take this as the Jesus story because they're talking about zombie David

[00:28:12] They're talking about 70 years down the line. They're talking about Babylon. They're talking about Israel

[00:28:17] There's nothing here that indicates that it was gonna happen 500 plus years later

[00:28:22] Right at the turn of the millennia

[00:28:25] When Jesus is around that says nothing about that and

[00:28:29] Okay, we could interpret

[00:28:31] David returning right

[00:28:34] The David line could be interpreted there

[00:28:36] But I even if we even if we went that far with it right

[00:28:40] I can't get past the fact that this whole time all through Jeremiah

[00:28:44] We've been talking about a 70 year timeframe

[00:28:47] That they go into captivity and then come back

[00:28:49] And that's still what we were talking about in my mind

[00:28:53] Until that last little bit there where it's like oh, but this is like the we ever this is the promised land

[00:28:58] This is where everything's gonna be wonderful and the

[00:29:01] The prophet the king the the Jesus he guy yeah, the David zombie are coming back and we're gonna make everything perfect

[00:29:08] Well, I told you when we were reading Isaiah

[00:29:12] Oh, that's some lightning. I told you when we were reading Isaiah

[00:29:16] This is where it's starting to feel like

[00:29:20] We're getting close to the New Testament. Sure because

[00:29:23] This is what the Christians draw on starting with Isaiah and moving forward all of the prophets

[00:29:30] Henceforth are gonna somewhat read like this and we're gonna be reading it with the lens

[00:29:37] Unfortunately of knowing about about the Jesus story

[00:29:42] Insofar as a very simplified version because we don't really know it. We haven't read it

[00:29:47] So with the lens of knowing a bit of the Jesus story and knowing that this is what Christians are taking from it

[00:29:55] so

[00:29:56] right yeah

[00:29:58] And and I think you know how like today we read um

[00:30:01] The well what Christians will tell you to read is the New Testament

[00:30:04] They only care about the New Testament for the most part. Yeah, that's that's the big the big book

[00:30:08] The New Testament all that stuff there good news that's the good stuff

[00:30:12] But

[00:30:13] They also throw in a few of the prophets and then you know obviously Genesis has got to be in there

[00:30:18] And you know some other shed they skip all the middle parts though right yeah

[00:30:22] But I feel like when you know during Jesus's time

[00:30:26] Because the prophets like Jeremiah and Isaiah were newer written material

[00:30:32] I feel like that was much like their New Testament. Yeah, so they drew on these writings more so than they drew on previous writings

[00:30:40] And and maybe even at the time they considered those previous writings a little bit too archaic

[00:30:44] Yeah, and not relevant

[00:30:46] But these newer writings were relevant and they used them to

[00:30:49] Almost steal their ideas

[00:30:51] Mm-hmm into the New Testament. Yeah, and again we haven't read the New Testament yet. So I don't know that to be

[00:30:56] 100% but it tracks

[00:30:58] But it makes some sense to me at least yeah based on some of the things we're reading in what I do know about the New Testament right so

[00:31:05] I don't know I

[00:31:08] I cannot accept that that's about Jesus though no, I don't either personally. I don't think it's about Jesus

[00:31:15] I'm I'm not here to say this is about Jesus. I'm here to say this is what the Christians draw on to support

[00:31:22] Saying that they prophesized Jesus sure no, yeah, I shouldn't even say I don't think that's about Jesus

[00:31:27] I know for a fact it's not about Jesus because I was written before Jesus was around and this fucker didn't prophesize Jesus

[00:31:32] He barely prophesized what underwear he was wearing that day. Yeah, he could barely talk

[00:31:37] In the right manner with regard to how he talks for God. Yeah, whatever

[00:31:42] Anyway, I just had to say that because I was annoyed with it

[00:31:47] But that was Jeremiah chapter 30 it sure as fuck was and we'll be back tomorrow

[00:31:52] Which is Saturday for our Q&E Saturday and then on Sunday

[00:31:59] We I don't know what we're gonna do because we missed book club last week and that was on me

[00:32:04] I did not have enough time to prepare right so I don't know if we're gonna do book club or patreon

[00:32:11] We'll probably only do one because yeah, honestly. I think we're both a little

[00:32:16] But dragiled and worn out right now. We're just driving things going on

[00:32:20] It feels like we're always running to catch up. Yes, so we'll probably only do one

[00:32:25] I'm not sure which one will do just either

[00:32:27] Honestly, it'll probably be book club just because that's an easier prep

[00:32:32] And I already did part of it right so if I had to bet

[00:32:36] I would prophesize

[00:32:38] The people do book club that makes that that and that's fine

[00:32:42] I think we can reset and kind of start from there. So that'll work apologies patrons

[00:32:47] Yes, I love you. Thank you so much for your support

[00:32:50] I hate that I'm leaving you hanging. I will get back to you. Yes for sure
