[00:01:04] Sacrilegious Discourse. Welcome to Sacrilegious Discourse. I'm husband and I'm wife. Together we're

[00:01:20] reading the Bible for the very first time. We grew up without religion and wanted to know

[00:01:24] what all the fuss was about. Well, what have we learned so far? That God is a dick and apparently

[00:01:30] some people believe in talking donkeys. We're not trying to pass ourselves off as experts.

[00:01:34] Nope, we're just reading the Bible for the first time and giving our first take reaction.

[00:01:38] If you'd like to join us in this venture you might consider starting at episode one.

[00:01:42] Otherwise jump in wherever you like. Alright let's go read the Bible. Yeah let's get to it.

[00:01:50] Husband! Wife!

[00:01:52] Do you remember what happened yesterday and where the hell we are today? Well, yesterday

[00:01:56] we read Jeremiah chapter 32. We did. And in that chapter I recall that Jeremiah was God told

[00:02:07] him that he was going to buy a thing. It was a dream maybe they was going to end up buying

[00:02:11] a piece of land from his somebody, some family member. No, no, no, no, no. No, no, no, no.

[00:02:16] It was the witness. Yeah, no, I think it was like his uncle or some shit. Sure, whatever.

[00:02:20] Then it actually happened. Then it actually happened so that obviously proves that all the

[00:02:23] prophecies are correct because he bought the land. Yeah. You know, and then he had a dream about

[00:02:28] it so that makes everything correct and true. Is that how that works? He prophesied a prophecy.

[00:02:36] There you go. Did I do that right? I hope so because we just got done talking about this.

[00:02:40] Honestly, I can't remember because... I just don't know. See, you should be in our discord group

[00:02:47] Tuesdays at 10 and then you could correct me because I will get it wrong. Right. Yeah, yeah.

[00:02:55] And then I think God was promising that they all come back after they got destroyed and wonderful

[00:03:00] stuff was going to in two, right? Sure. Eventually, eventually, after all the terrible things.

[00:03:05] Right. And he's writing this. There's terrible things and then good things here. Right, but he's

[00:03:09] writing this from jail and Baruch is writing it too. Maybe. Yeah, and also Baruch took the deed

[00:03:20] from the sale of the land and put it in an earthen pot. I mean, they were supposed to at least.

[00:03:25] They said they were going to. Yeah. So that they could prove later that they cared enough to write

[00:03:30] it down. Something. Yeah. Yeah. So anyway, that was Jeremiah chapter 32. Sure, it's fuck was. Which means

[00:03:36] that today we're getting into Jeremiah chapter 33. All right, let's do this. Okey dokey.

[00:03:50] All right, we are doing Jeremiah chapter 33. Okay. Are you ready for this? I'm ready for it.

[00:03:57] More over. More over. The word of the Lord came to Jeremiah a second time. Not a second time.

[00:04:05] A second time. Is this only the second time? Well, the first time it was he's in jail and he's like

[00:04:10] buy some land. I thought God's been talking through him this whole time we've been reading this book.

[00:04:14] But in jail, this is the second time. Oh, so this is the second time in jail. Right. Okay. It didn't

[00:04:19] clarify that, but I'm going to guess that's what they mean. Okay, because otherwise we can't trust

[00:04:23] to do. Oh, I didn't finish the sentence. I'm sorry. In jail while he was still shut up in the court

[00:04:28] of the prison. Yep. Okay. Okay. That's the rest of the sentence. Okay. See, but I guessed correctly. You did.

[00:04:34] I'm awesome. Okay, saying the Lord says the Lord who made it made it. The Lord who formed it to

[00:04:43] establish it. It. The Lord is his name. That was parentheses voice. Okay. Yeah, I have notes about

[00:04:50] that. There's a question about like the fuck is it? I mean, the only one I am aware of is a clown

[00:04:55] that lives in the gutter. That would be Pennywise. Right. Yeah. It has a name. This it is not a clown

[00:05:04] and it's not an alien. It could be Jerusalem. More likely, it is the entire planet. But not

[00:05:13] in universe, not the universe, just the planet. They didn't know about the universe to it. It. Okay.

[00:05:20] Yeah. I think we should just from now forward call Earth it when I'm like, fuck it. Yeah.

[00:05:26] Then you guys know that I'm saying fuck Earth. What a beautiful it it is. Oh, what a beautiful

[00:05:34] yeah. Yeah. I love you all the way from the moon to it. Yeah. Yeah. And back again. And back. Right.

[00:05:42] Okay. So anyway, God's talking. Okay. After he formed it. Yeah. He says call to me and I will answer

[00:05:50] you and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know. Okay. I mean, for me on kind of

[00:05:58] dumb, I think so like everything I don't know is great and mighty. I feel like the great and mighty

[00:06:05] things he's going to show us are that we have to fear him and love him. Um, those are the things

[00:06:09] that we are they're going to show us that we don't know. Those things are not great and mighty. Not in

[00:06:14] my opinion, but I feel like that's what he's talking about because that's always what he's talking

[00:06:17] about. You have to fear me, you have to love me, you have to, you know, bow to me and cater to me

[00:06:22] and make and kill things for me and do shit for me. Um, when he said call to me and I will answer

[00:06:28] you, it made me think of the song by little not little nazx, um, call me by my name Montero. Okay.

[00:06:37] That's the one where he slides down the pole. Yeah. And lap dances on the devil. I fucking love that

[00:06:45] song and I love that video. Yeah. But my favorite one by little nazx is the one where he's a zombie.

[00:06:53] Um, I can't remember what it's called. It's so good. I'll try to remember to send it to you in

[00:06:57] the show notes. It's, it's so fucking good. All right. Okay. Anyway, yeah. Call me by my name.

[00:07:02] Right. Okay. Uh, call to me and I will answer you and show you great and mighty things which

[00:07:08] you do not know for thus says the Lord, the God of Israel concerning the houses of this city

[00:07:15] and the houses of the kings of Judah, which have been pulled down to fortify against the siege

[00:07:21] mounds and the sword. Okay. So that was all lead up to here's what I'm about to fucking say. Sure.

[00:07:27] Okay. They come to fight with the chaldeans but only to fill their places with the dead bodies of

[00:07:34] men whom I will slay in my anger and my fury. Oh, for those whose wickedness I have hidden my

[00:07:42] face from this city. Wait, who's he slaying? He's slaying the people fighting the Israelites

[00:07:48] or the people that are fighting against the child. Oh no, he's um, the people are coming to fight

[00:07:58] the chaldeans but only to um to get killed to get killed. Okay. Yeah. All right. Yeah. So he's

[00:08:05] still he's using the chaldeans as a tool who's going to kill all these wayward Israelites that

[00:08:12] are not following God's laws. The directs that were left behind that didn't get all right.

[00:08:16] All right. So he's still being an asshole to his people. Yes, yes. Okay. Behold, I will bring it

[00:08:22] health and healing. I will heal them and reveal to them the abundance of peace and truth.

[00:08:28] So they're wait, I thought they were going to die. They are. He's going to heal death. No,

[00:08:34] the ones that are left over there. Oh, the ones that didn't quite die. He's going to heal them.

[00:08:40] They're over in Babylon. Oh, okay. Yeah. He's like, Yoke, come back now. Got it. I know it's all

[00:08:46] bloody here now but you'd be okay. But that's like 70 years from now though. Yeah, don't worry about

[00:08:51] it. Right. Yeah. And I will cause the captives of Judah and the captives of Israel to return see?

[00:08:57] Yeah. And we'll rebuild those places as at first. I will cleanse them from all their iniquity by

[00:09:05] which they have sinned against me and I will pardon all their iniquities by which they have sinned

[00:09:11] and by which they have transgressed against me. Then it shall be to me a name of joy, a praise

[00:09:21] and an honor before all nations of the earth who shall hear all the good that I do to them.

[00:09:28] They shall fear and tremble for all the goodness and all the prosperity that I provide for it.

[00:09:34] Again, so I harp on this a lot but like I feel like he doesn't really care to change people's

[00:09:44] hearts as they stand. He's like a guy. And you have to follow the certain model or else he's going

[00:09:49] to turn his back on you, smite you, put you into slavery, turn his back on you for generations not

[00:09:55] just like you specifically but you and your kids. Yeah. And then maybe if you guys are able to change

[00:10:01] your ways like you know hundreds of years from now, he might love you until you decide to go against

[00:10:07] him again. Right. It just doesn't it just doesn't feel like a very healthy relationship. That's all.

[00:10:12] It's always the fear me or die but you totally have free will to choose whichever way you want.

[00:10:19] Yeah. No except for that except for that one way you know what this God hypothetically is going to

[00:10:27] murder you or send you away or cause you all kinds of problems and famine and whatever else.

[00:10:33] Testaments. So there's not really a choice here. No. And moreover it's just it's not a way like

[00:10:41] there's no relationship growth here. It's his way or the highway. Yeah. You know, you don't have

[00:10:47] a good choice here. There is no good choice. And I don't think that people you know the other

[00:10:51] thing is that I don't think these people actually know what their choice is. Right. So I still have

[00:10:56] questions about that. No matter how much he says he wrote it on their heart, I don't believe that

[00:10:59] based on what I'm hearing from what these people do. He has a written it down on their heart. But

[00:11:03] he's supposed to before they come back. Yeah. That's later. Yeah. We're not there yet. All right.

[00:11:07] That's in the next book. Okay. Loss says the Lord again. There shall be heard in this place

[00:11:15] of which you say it is desolate without man and without beast in the cities of Judah in the streets

[00:11:22] of Jerusalem that are desolate without man and without inhabitant and without beast. The voice

[00:11:28] of joy and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride,

[00:11:34] the voice of those who will say I love these quotes within quotes within quotes. Praise the Lord

[00:11:40] of hosts for the Lord is good for his mercy and yours forever except his mercy doesn't endure

[00:11:46] forever. No, his mercy and yours only before he gets in a pissy mood. Right. And only if you're

[00:11:52] following things exactly to the letter or the law that he wants you to follow. Mercy is not

[00:11:57] only for when you behave. Mercy is supposed to extend to you even when you have fucked up. Right.

[00:12:04] Otherwise, it's not mercy. It's just being an easy shallow fair with her fan. I think they

[00:12:11] call that right? Right. Yeah. Like you only like your team when it's winning. Yeah. Yeah. That's

[00:12:16] like we even recognize now in today's society that rehabilitation is a better method than punishment.

[00:12:23] Right. Rehabilitation is much more successful. I mean, only the progressives do. Well, okay. The

[00:12:30] conservatives don't. But yeah, I'm just saying that there were there was none of these ideas which

[00:12:36] have been in my opinion proven to be accurate. Yes. We're not even attempted by this quote unquote

[00:12:42] God. Right. You know, like these weren't things that even occurred to happen back then. Right.

[00:12:46] And that that is part of what I can't wrap my head around with the idea of God and this Almighty

[00:12:54] being that's supposed to know everything can't even figure out how to people. Right. You know,

[00:12:58] like he just came in figure it out. Did you not know about the social sciences?

[00:13:03] Right. You would think he would know way more than we would. Like, hypothetically, he should know

[00:13:08] way more than we do. Yeah. And like his laws of living and life should reflect this knowledge that

[00:13:14] is way more than we currently knew back then. Right. Because he knew all the things that were best.

[00:13:21] And then there will be people who say, well, that's what Jesus did. And I'm like, okay, but we're

[00:13:25] not there yet. And why did God have to be all Jesus' see before he could be a good God? Right.

[00:13:33] It went even if you do, you know, take this and still believe in God, right? Yeah. I think you

[00:13:40] have to at some level admit that this God is not the most powerful, most almighty thing on the planet

[00:13:47] because he has flaws. Yeah. Like if we are to like, if we want to pretend like God exists, right? Sure.

[00:13:56] If I wanted to even wrap my head around that idea even a little bit, I would have to first

[00:14:03] accept the fact that that God that I am choosing to believe in has flaws. Yes. It is a flawed entity

[00:14:13] which automatically to me disqualifies it from being. Right. It opens up a whole other set of problems,

[00:14:20] right? Because the question then is what does it mean to be a God if a God has flaws? Right. That's

[00:14:26] not a God that's merely an alien that's more powerful than I am. You know what I mean? Like,

[00:14:34] yeah. You know, two pointed people, I would be considered a God and we all know I'm fucking flawed.

[00:14:41] Right. Yeah. So I ain't trying to walk around saying I'm God. Right. That's all I'm saying. No, yeah,

[00:14:48] it just the things that occur to me. That's all. Yeah. Yeah. Show our thoughts. Right. Back porch philosophy. Yes.

[00:14:54] And of those who will bring the sacrifice of praise into the house of the Lord for I will cause the

[00:15:00] captives of the land to return as at first says the Lord. Plus says the Lord of hosts in this place

[00:15:10] which is desolate without man and without beast. And in all its cities, there shall again be a dwelling

[00:15:16] place of shepherds causing their flocks to lie down. Aw. Mm. It's cute. Yeah. In the cities of the

[00:15:24] mountains, in the cities of the lowland, in the cities of the south, in the land of Benjamin,

[00:15:29] in the places around Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, the flock shall again pass under the

[00:15:37] hands of him who counts them says the Lord. Wait, God's doing a count.

[00:15:42] He thinks we were allowed to count thing. Remember how we don't allow to count things sometimes?

[00:15:45] That's another time. There's not just people. We can count flocks and sheep and stuff. It just

[00:15:49] depends. Sometimes they do it. I'm just trying to make sure we gotta be clear. I might get

[00:15:53] smoked if I don't, if I count the wrong fucking thing, you know? Dude, if we were going to get

[00:15:57] smoked, we'd already be smoked. It's true. Behold, the days are coming says the Lord that I will perform

[00:16:05] that good thing, which I have promised to the House of Israel and to the House of Judah.

[00:16:10] I really find it interesting that he still refers to them separately. Yeah.

[00:16:14] There's some Judah over here and there's some Israel over there. That's just in case they want

[00:16:20] to expand their borders, you know? Like in case they ever get beyond the Jerusalem thing.

[00:16:25] We reserve the right to bring back in those other tribes and that of the land over there because,

[00:16:29] you know, I just find it interesting that there's still mentions separately instead of like all one.

[00:16:36] It is interesting. Yeah. I don't quite understand that distinction exactly, but it still speaks to

[00:16:42] the geography of the tribes as opposed to the people as a whole. Right. And obviously the

[00:16:51] prominence of the of Judah is much greater than any of the other tribes that are out there.

[00:16:56] Which is so weird to me. Like when I was first reading these with you, like when we were early days,

[00:17:02] I kept getting so confused because I thought Israel was where it's at.

[00:17:07] Well and they treated early on there was some distinction as to

[00:17:12] some more powerful than other tribes, right? But as far as being God's people,

[00:17:17] they were all treated equally early on. Yeah. And then it just kind of like, we just kind of lost,

[00:17:22] like, you know, they call them the last tribes, right? But we just started losing them.

[00:17:26] The ten. Oh shit. Yeah. We don't hear about them anymore. Yeah. They just wandered off

[00:17:31] yeah. Into the sunset. It was really weird. It's just like when we talk about the Jewish people today,

[00:17:39] I mean, I fully admit to my ignorance that I am not at all versed in anything relating to Judaism or

[00:17:51] the lands and the people. Okay. Other than what I've learned thus far. But before we started

[00:17:58] reading this, I never knew about a Judah. Sure. I only knew about Israel. Israel is the thing.

[00:18:06] That's what I knew. Right. And it just really surprises me reading this that, oh no, actually

[00:18:13] Israel's gone y'all. Like it's Judah. Judah's Judah's the the lasting tribe. Maybe but I think the

[00:18:20] reason that they refer to it as Israel now is because they want to be a restored Israel, right? That's

[00:18:26] the idea that they want to push forward in the world is that it is a restored Israel. And I get

[00:18:33] that. But that is not made clear to dumb, dumb like me who like should I don't I just I was very

[00:18:44] confused. Sure. I didn't understand. Right. I thought Judah or no, I didn't know anything about

[00:18:51] Judah. Right. I thought that Israel was the one. I didn't know that Israel, you know, it was a

[00:18:58] conglomeration of tribes that disappeared. Right. You know, I just I didn't understand that. Sure.

[00:19:04] How could I possibly have thought that? I mean, it requires learning about the culture. It

[00:19:08] requires learning about their their their religion. It requires learning more about them. So

[00:19:12] which is which is partly what we're doing here. Yes. I just I like I wonder how many other people

[00:19:17] like me had no idea that oh Israel is not actually. I mean, I don't know how true this is but I

[00:19:25] apparently I heard one time that there's like one in 10 people in the United States that can't even

[00:19:28] point out the United States on a fucking map. Oh, so I mean, I don't have a lot of faith in how much

[00:19:32] people are going to know about anything like that's true. That's true. Do you remember that one Jimmy

[00:19:37] Kimmelbit where they were asking people to identify the country and it was just the United States

[00:19:44] upside down. And they like had no idea what it was. That that was killing me. Yeah. Because I was

[00:19:52] like that's just the United States upside down, right? I was just like turning my head sideways.

[00:19:57] It actually made me feel kind of smartish for a minute. Sure. Yeah. Because nobody else was well

[00:20:02] I mean to be fair they pick on people. Oh sure. They're not going to show the ones that get it like

[00:20:06] that's yeah, like they probably ask like 500 people and they show like the five that are dumb. Yeah

[00:20:11] yeah. No, I get that in those days and at that time I will cause to grow up to David

[00:20:18] a branch of righteousness. Okay, okay. I grow up to David like not transcend down

[00:20:28] as descendants through David. Right. Well, he's I think the symbolism though is that he's planting

[00:20:34] the righteousness and it's going to grow from the land that he's replanting them in. Right. No,

[00:20:40] I get that but also that so what he's saying is remember that one time when I said that

[00:20:48] the branch would go through David, I was just kidding because actually I just like took away

[00:20:54] that possibility accidentally. Right. So now what I'm going to say is that I'm going to plant

[00:21:01] some people and they're just going to kind of like somehow magically be David of David without

[00:21:10] like genealogy wise. Well, I'm sure they could find a second cousin right whenever something

[00:21:17] that they can be like there we're going to stay there. There. That's the one. Yeah, but you see

[00:21:22] what I'm saying though he's like JK right. Like see God does change his mind and mess up and rewrite

[00:21:29] as long as we can pretend it's all okay. Yeah. You know, we just have to be able to it's just like any

[00:21:33] other conspiracy theory or anything else. You just have to have some basis in fact. And then over

[00:21:38] the rest of it, you can do right. Yeah exactly either overlook or bend your mind in pretzels,

[00:21:43] whichever is easy for you. I don't have a pretzel head. I have a potato head. He shall execute

[00:21:50] judgment and righteousness in the earth. The David is the branch of the righteous David

[00:21:56] growth thing. Yeah, the zombie David. Okay. Yeah. Who I have heard Jesus referred to as one of his

[00:22:06] nicknames is Mr. Righteousness. Oh really? I've never heard that not with the mister. I added that

[00:22:12] for fun. Yeah, okay. Yeah, one of his alternate names is righteousness really? Yeah. And so then

[00:22:19] they're like see see see see see and then they pointed this and they're like prophecy again,

[00:22:24] again, the book was written after all this shit that you could make it profite as much as they want to.

[00:22:29] Why did they call him righteousness? This was already written down right? Yeah. Yeah, like yeah,

[00:22:37] yes, I'm sure they did call him that didn't they? Right. Okay. Anyway, in those days Judah will be saved

[00:22:44] and Jerusalem will dwell safely. And this is the name by which she will be called. Are you ready?

[00:22:50] Is it another new name? No, it's the same name. Ready? Yeah. The Lord our righteousness all caps.

[00:22:56] That's what Israel is going to be called? Yeah, that's what no, the the Jerusalem Jerusalem is going to

[00:23:02] be called the Lord our righteousness. Yeah, that is a new name. Why would they call Jerusalem? The

[00:23:08] Lord is God now the city he planned it so much that he just kind of grew into the city. Yeah,

[00:23:14] his he planted himself. Yes, now you're getting it and then his righteousness grew out of the ground

[00:23:21] through David which is then Jesus right? Yeah, is that how that works? I think so. Okay, I mean,

[00:23:26] we're not there yet. So I could really sure how crop rotation works with with gods but I mean,

[00:23:31] I'm assuming you have to just water it just right and then you get a god that goes into a Messiah

[00:23:36] that then saves the world and everything's cool. Is that about it? Is that about the time that

[00:23:41] the Greeks had aqueducts? I don't know because I remember in sixth grade learning about

[00:23:50] Greek, archie, no architecture and like buildings and whatnot. Sure. And I remember that's where

[00:23:58] I learned the word aqueduct and that that was like an amazing feat. Right. And I don't know why

[00:24:06] that stuck with me. Also, the word not zeitgeist. What's the other one? Zayi something. Okay,

[00:24:14] I'll get back to you but it's like a pyramid. Okay, but it starts with a zigrat. Zigrat. Yeah. Yeah,

[00:24:21] we talked about that before. Yeah, not zeitgeist. I think one of the most amazing things to me actually

[00:24:26] about like, no, not at all. Okay. But the idea that so like we're very heavily enveloped in

[00:24:34] the whole biblical world right now, right? Sure. With what we're learning and everything right now.

[00:24:39] It's interesting to like I think that I think that it's easy for someone who is religious or

[00:24:44] believes in God to get very wrapped up in this one little place. But to step out like what really

[00:24:50] intrigues me about reading the Bible is to sometimes step outside of that biblical circle and say,

[00:24:57] oh these other things were going on. Yeah, like over here. What was happening in Greece and Rome

[00:25:01] and Asia or Italy, you know, all those other places? Right. Yeah. Like what were the other things

[00:25:07] happening in the world? Yeah. That we're happening at these same times. It's really neat to me to

[00:25:12] kind of understand that in context. Yeah. So I love I love to it just it makes the world seem bigger

[00:25:20] and and smaller at the same time like this seem smaller, right? Because you don't have because

[00:25:26] this idea is one idea of many in the world that existed at that one time. Yeah, that's what I'm

[00:25:30] in by bigger and smaller at the same time because it's like there's so much happening the world is huge

[00:25:35] but also like it's all on one little thing. Right. Right. The world's so small. It's cute. But it's

[00:25:43] yeah anyway, anyway, I had to say that for us says the Lord thus ready. Yep. David shall never

[00:25:50] lack a man to sit on the throne of the house of Israel nor shall the priest the Levites lack a man

[00:25:57] to offer burnt offerings before me to Kindle grain offerings and to sacrifice continually. I see

[00:26:04] he's still about all that. So we're still yeah, we're still sacrificing. Yeah, we're still paganish.

[00:26:09] Yeah, right? And the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah saying thus says the Lord. I like how he's like

[00:26:18] the Lord says this and then he's like, I'm the Lord and I see this. Right. Okay, call me your

[00:26:24] debts if you can break my covenant with the day and my covenant with the night so that there will

[00:26:32] not be day and night in their season then my covenant may also be broken with David my servant

[00:26:40] so that he shall not have a son to reign on his throne and with the Levites the priests my ministers.

[00:26:47] So so he's saying there's no way that this can be broken because you can't stop the day and the night.

[00:26:55] So I promise you well, I don't know have you heard all the conspiracy theories about the

[00:27:00] the solar eclipse that's happening on the eat the month of April yeah, I have heard so like

[00:27:05] that's like that's like the day stopping right in the middle of the day. That's what I hear. I mean it's

[00:27:10] not. I've heard I've heard from very unreputable sources like this is like the end is not

[00:27:20] a type thing you know like this is the first eclipse since way back there's all kinds of I mean

[00:27:24] like let me tell you something spoiler alert it's not no we just had on the clips like a few years ago

[00:27:30] but this is a big one what okay whatever yeah and it makes some sort of like X across America

[00:27:37] from the time. Except it does I'm except it does whatever I don't I don't really care like it's just

[00:27:42] it's they they've created this whole like conspiracy nutcase scenario where this means the end of the

[00:27:47] world and I'm like what in the hell like where do these people how do they who sits around and

[00:27:54] just like looks at these things and comes up with all these crazy scenarios that just can't be true

[00:28:02] right like who's doing it they have to know that they're doing this as a clickbait thing like they

[00:28:08] have to know that this is just sensationalism based on on you know incorrect information see what I

[00:28:17] like to do is scroll through the comments on those things not to read the hate comments and not

[00:28:23] to read the flamers but to read the people that are like this isn't true because and then they explain

[00:28:30] why it isn't true yeah and then that's where I start with my research because then I go look up

[00:28:37] the arguments and I'm like that argument was correct right and that's fun yeah like I don't go do

[00:28:44] I don't start at my own research I start with what are the smart people in the comments saying

[00:28:51] and that saves me from just like random searching sure you know yeah and then I go look that

[00:28:57] shit up and I'm like those commenters were correct this is bullshit which I knew but here's why yeah

[00:29:04] that's fun that's a lot of fun as the host of heaven cannot be numbered nor the sand of the sea

[00:29:12] measured hmm that's fun that's a throwback yep that's a b side right so will I multiply the descendants

[00:29:20] of David my servant and the Levites who minister to me well there you go but I bring them back the

[00:29:26] sands of the beach and all that but I heard that Jesus was not only an only child but also never

[00:29:32] fought that's what I heard yeah so what you mean what yeah I don't know because then I also heard

[00:29:40] like in those Dan Brown novels that he totally had siblings and dude totally fucked yeah

[00:29:48] and then in the movie dogma of course he had children because you know she was a descendant we

[00:29:52] certainly don't seem to maybe and maybe I'm wrong because I'm not in the Jewish community but it

[00:29:57] doesn't feel like the line of David is really a thing that we talk about or even Levites anymore yeah

[00:30:03] and and again I'm not in that community so I don't know that to be 100% certain we don't hear about

[00:30:08] it outside I don't I certainly yeah I don't from from the outside perspective I certainly don't have

[00:30:12] any idea that that is something that is still discussed as a ongoing thing right so I would be

[00:30:20] curious about that if it is still something that is talked about or cared about in any way yeah people

[00:30:27] that are familiar with contemporary Jewish law and law and happenings is I feel like this would

[00:30:36] make for a good like side you know episode like we could talk about like whatever happened to them

[00:30:44] Levi when like yeah they still discuss that stuff and today's you know and the current Jewish

[00:30:49] community right right that's still something that is happening so I would be curious about that

[00:30:53] I would as well yeah let's learn about Levites and David and David people

[00:30:59] Davidians the Davidians yeah right yeah branch Davidians but no that's something entirely different

[00:31:08] oh wife more over the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah saying have you not considered

[00:31:16] what these people have spoken saying the two families which the Lord has chosen he has also cast them

[00:31:22] off thus they have despised my people as if they should no more be a nation before them thus says

[00:31:31] the Lord if my covenant is not with day and night and if I am not appointed the ordinances of heaven

[00:31:38] and earth then I will cast away the descendants of Jacob and David my servant so that I will not take

[00:31:44] any of his descendants to be rulers over the descendants of Abraham Isaac and Jacob I'm

[00:31:51] all said Jason but no he's making a claw he's making a caveat here like if you guys fuck up

[00:31:59] I reserve the right to cancel this whole thing but I thought he's saying before there's no way

[00:32:05] it can be canceled because unless you can stop day or night or something like that which

[00:32:11] I guess probably he's saying that that can't be done yeah okay yeah all right fair enough yeah

[00:32:18] for I will cause their captives to return and we'll have mercy on them the end okay well yeah um

[00:32:27] I mean I don't really they're coming back he's gonna restore them and David there's

[00:32:34] going to be branches growing through David's line and I'll kind of tell you like I'm over Jeremiah

[00:32:40] I know we said this about every other yeah no it happens in every book that we're in we're like oh

[00:32:44] quiet is this gonna end soon like this guy he's too much and he's getting like the books are

[00:32:51] getting closer and closer to Jesus and so they're so Jesusy they are a bit yeah and I don't

[00:32:56] it makes me very antsy and uncomfortable but I have to say the reading that you you have to try

[00:33:03] to go to like another level to get the Jesus bit out of it right like I I from this perspective

[00:33:10] of the world know that that's what you know the people that wrote the New Testament were trying to

[00:33:15] get at yeah but I also know that they wrote that with the idea that this was already in the old

[00:33:19] testament so like right it doesn't like I'm trying to interpret it in such a way that it actually

[00:33:25] I'm trying to read it just with the eyes of the people as they wrote it right and it's really hard

[00:33:32] because you know where it's going sure because we've been told in luscious Jewish then it's not going

[00:33:38] fucking anywhere right but I'm neither Jewish nor uninformed of the Jesus story right you know

[00:33:45] and so it's hard to take those things out of my head and say okay just pretend like this is the

[00:33:51] only thing that you know but also from that perspective every time you have tried every time we

[00:33:57] have pointed out an instance where this is this is referring to Jesus possibly based on the New

[00:34:02] Testament what they say yeah I can also read it and say that makes no fucking like every single time

[00:34:08] yeah I can read that section and say I don't that they do that's a stretch that's that's a you're

[00:34:14] really trying you that's a try hard you're not you're not look the people that wrote the

[00:34:19] fucking New Testament clearly saw all these writings and they like they wrote post-ated checks

[00:34:27] yeah right they much like a lot of the stuff in the old testament yeah yeah a lot of the stuff

[00:34:33] was written to fit a current stuff that already was out there right yeah so like basically the

[00:34:40] story kept building on itself but backwards yeah yeah to backfill essentially that's correct yeah it's

[00:34:46] so dumb it's so childish it's so not the way a good story goes couldn't agree more and on that note

[00:34:56] that was Jeremiah chapter 33 sure spoke was which means that we will be back tomorrow with

[00:35:03] Jeremiah chapter 34 all right we'll see you then bye
