[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

[00:01:25] about. Well, what do we learn so far? That God is a dick and apparently some people believe in

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

[00:01:35] Bible for 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

[00:01:45] read the Bible. Yeah, let's get to it. Husband, wife, do you remember what happened on Friday?

[00:01:55] Well we got done with Jeremiah chapter 45 which was the chapter right after the narrative that

[00:02:03] was being told and it was like the last time that Jeremiah was going to be doing his you know

[00:02:09] addressing the nations and all that kind of stuff so it was we were hearing from Baruch

[00:02:13] and Baruch was like we were like back like 20 years and Baruch was recalling I don't really know

[00:02:23] honestly. Like I do remember that he was feeling sorry for himself because he didn't get to be a

[00:02:30] prophet because reputation was dashed yeah and then he included this in the narrative for some reason

[00:02:38] that Jeremiah told him that God had a special message for him that was basically like just be

[00:02:43] glad you live. I feel like he was trying to make himself a prophet. Yeah and also then like he

[00:02:49] was apparently too important to be in the city when God destroyed it. According to legends.

[00:02:54] Yeah so then he walked outside of the city, took some acid and watched some angels destroy it.

[00:02:59] That's what I said anyway. Yeah, he's also considered a prophet by some and he's also considered a

[00:03:06] saint by some and he may have got translated up to paradise in a fucking coach. Yeah yeah so I don't

[00:03:16] know what's up with Baruch but Baruch's got some shit going on and anyway that was that was Jeremiah

[00:03:21] chapter 45 and I'm kind of actually curious what's gonna happen today which would be Jeremiah chapter 46.

[00:05:26] couple things to say. Okay. First of all apologies to those who are keeping track with their bingo

[00:05:33] boards. I did not drop any f-bombs in the opening. Oh man. That's rare. So yeah no wild card for you

[00:05:40] or whatever. If you have no idea what I'm talking about is because you're not in our discord on

[00:05:46] Tuesdays, which you should be. Right. So yeah, I mean you should go over there and hop over

[00:05:51] on our discord, which there's a link in the show notes right now because today if you're listening

[00:05:57] on the day, it's Monday which means that our live will be tomorrow. Yeah. At 10 Eastern. Yeah.

[00:06:03] And we have so much fun. Right. And you can play bingo and there's all kinds of ways to

[00:06:09] track my f-cups and errors and cats and stuff like that. Right. Okay. So that's that. The other

[00:06:18] thing is I have some notes about this chapter that actually are kind of important that I read

[00:06:24] before we jump into it. Okay. Okay. So first of all, this chapter is part of a series what?

[00:06:30] We're entering a series but this is not a narrative. This is oracles against foreign nations

[00:06:38] and it consists of chapters 46 to 51. Open? What? Open. Yeah. Oracles against foreign nations. Oh.

[00:06:48] I'm like the fucking talking about. Yes, that would be correct. That is an acronym.

[00:06:52] That is how that works. Now in the septuogen, these chapters, oh it's chapters 46 to 51. And in

[00:07:00] the septuogen, these chapters come in the middle of what we call Jeremiah chapter 25, but which is

[00:07:09] chapter 32 and the septuogen. Okay. My mouth wanted to say superintendant. Got it. Got it. Yeah.

[00:07:17] That is not correct. That is not correct. So the fact that these oracles are kind of together.

[00:07:23] Yeah. Suggest that they circulated for a time as an independent unit. Okay. So they were like

[00:07:30] their own separate thing that different people put in different places depending on who was

[00:07:35] translating and why. Got it. Okay. Yeah. And this series, basically the rest of this book is these

[00:07:42] chapters. They bring together a number of the messages that the prophet announced to foreign

[00:07:49] nations over the course of time during the many years of his ministry. Okay. That's not confusing

[00:07:57] at all. Right. So we're going to be bouncing even more wildly around than talking about more

[00:08:01] different time frames. And it gets worse. Yeah. It gets worse. Ready? Great. Furthermore,

[00:08:08] the order in which the messages have been arranged does not follow the order of the events

[00:08:14] that they announced. Oh awesome. They're not chronological. Yeah, they're yeah. Great. The arrangement

[00:08:19] is more according to the geographic location of the target countries. So each chapter is basically

[00:08:26] going to be Jeremiah yelling at a different nation. Okay. And the arrangement like I said is geographic

[00:08:34] and it starts with Egypt in the south. And then it moves north and east towards Mesopotamia,

[00:08:41] middle of the city. And it hits a bunch of locations all in between. I kind of dislike strongly

[00:08:48] whoever put together the book of Jeremiah. I do too. I am not I'm not a fan of that person. Yeah,

[00:08:54] chronological is always best bitches. Yeah. And I mean there's some thoughts that it was

[00:08:59] a book but I don't believe that either. There we go. There's a chance that he might have died

[00:09:03] with Jeremiah. So like there I mean, whatever. There's been plenty of chances to fix it since his time

[00:09:08] at the very least. So I think that's going to be like my life goal is like me stapling like I'm just

[00:09:15] going to get a Bible and I'm going to tear all the pages out and I'm going to rest this is how I

[00:09:20] should actually go. Yeah. Yeah. Like this is chronological. Right. Yeah. And I will be the

[00:09:26] decider of what goes and what stays will have our own if I got some apocrypha, pygrifa, what the

[00:09:33] fuck ever? The you know non-canon Bible. We'll have our council of sacrilege. Yes. Yes. Yeah.

[00:09:39] I'll include all that stuff. So the climax of this series deals with the nation that dominated

[00:09:46] the affairs of most countries in the region which was Babylon. Yeah. Yeah. You've got it. Okay.

[00:09:52] So now we're going to jump in. Okay. Okay. So but we're starting with Egypt. Egypt. Got it.

[00:09:58] The word of the Lord which came to Jeremiah the prophet against the nations and that is basically

[00:10:05] an intro for this entire section, not just this chapter. I bet these messages sound very similar.

[00:10:11] They probably do for each of the fucking nation. They probably do. Just to guess I'm just going

[00:10:15] to say that up front, but based on what I've heard so far in Jeremiah, that's probably how it's

[00:10:19] going to go. I'm going to guess that you're right, but it will be fun listening to him talk shit

[00:10:24] against different geographies. Sure. Yeah. Okay. Okay. Dude. Whatever. Okay. Concerning the army of

[00:10:34] Pharaoh Niko, king of Egypt which was by the river Euphrates in Karshamesh and which

[00:10:41] Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon defeated in the fourth year of Joziah, king of Judah. Okay.

[00:10:50] Okay. Now this is a quote. This is Jeremiah delivering a prophecy. Egypt you are going to be so

[00:10:58] fucked. Yeah. And so he is like, this is what he sees. Okay. Okay. Order the buckler and shield

[00:11:05] and draw him near to the battle. Harness the horses and mount up you horsemen. Scan forth with your

[00:11:10] helmets. Polish the spears put on the armor. Why have I seen them dismayed and turn back? Their

[00:11:17] mighty ones are beaten down. They have speedily fled. Look at them Egyptians run. Yeah. And did not

[00:11:23] look back for fear was all around says the Lord, you know, to me. Yeah. Sure. Do not let the swift

[00:11:32] flee away nor the mighty man escape. They will stumble and fall toward the north by the river Euphrates.

[00:11:39] Who is this coming up like a flood? Whose waters move like the rivers Egypt rises up like a flood

[00:11:46] and its waters move like the rivers. And he says I will go up and cover the earth. I will destroy

[00:11:52] the city and its inhabitants. Come up, bow horses and rage, O chariots and let the mighty men come forth

[00:12:01] the Ethiopians and the Libyans who handle the shield and the Lydians who handle and bend the bow

[00:12:08] the Libyans and the Lydians. There are mercenaries that were and the Ethiopians, they were all

[00:12:16] mercenaries that were Egypt. Yeah. So this is all directed at Egypt and their slaves and

[00:12:22] their warriors and their mercenaries like the whole army of mixed mash got it. Yeah.

[00:12:28] For this is the day of the Lord God of hosts the day of vengeance that he may avenge himself on his

[00:12:34] adversaries. The sword shall deliver. It shall be satiated and may drunk with their blood

[00:12:42] for the Lord God of hosts has a sacrifice in the north country by the river Euphrates.

[00:12:48] Go up to Gilead and take bomb of virgin, the daughter of Egypt in vain. You will use many

[00:12:55] medicines. You shall not be cured. Okay. Let me jump into some notes before we get too much further.

[00:13:02] I'm assuming he's going to kill Egypt. Yeah. Well, like that is hypothetically like

[00:13:10] in Canaan. Okay. Jeremiah is being told by God this is what's going to happen. So he's giving

[00:13:17] this prophecy. God is showing me this moment in time when oh shit look at all those Egyptians

[00:13:25] and all their guys. Oh they are running in fear. Oh my god. Oh this movie is great. Oh look at

[00:13:31] them. Yeah. Okay. So that's what's happening. Still sounding like a Babylonian agent though.

[00:13:35] Mm-hmm. Just saying. Yeah. Okay. Also why would God care about the Babylonians and the Egyptians?

[00:13:41] He wouldn't because he doesn't even hardly care about his own people. He wouldn't. Okay. All right.

[00:13:46] So it was on his way to Karshamish. I'm giving you notes now. Sure. It was on his way to Karshamish

[00:13:53] located in modern Turkey near the Syrian border. Okay. That Pharaoh Niko had slain King Josiah of

[00:14:01] Judah back in 609 BCE when Josiah tried to turn him back. Okay. So that's what this is supposed

[00:14:09] to have taken place before then. Okay. Sure. Pharaoh kept his army and Karshamish for four years

[00:14:16] dominating the area and waiting for the inevitable confrontation with rising Babylon. When it came

[00:14:23] the Egyptians were rooted in 605 BCE. The army of never could oh is it not rooted? No it's

[00:14:30] routed. Is it routed? Yeah. Okay. They were routed not rooted. My bad. Another one of those words

[00:14:36] I never hear out loud. Okay. I really thought was rooted. No it's routed. Okay. They were routed.

[00:14:43] They were they were stopped at any rate. In 605 BCE the army of Nebuchadnezzar

[00:14:51] defeated the troops of Pharaoh Niko at Karshamish on the northern Euphrates and pursued the troop

[00:14:58] to the border of Egypt. The Babylonian armies chased the fleeing Egyptians south Egyptians south

[00:15:05] and came to Jerusalem. Okay. So moving on when it says the association of the bomb when he says

[00:15:15] the bomb of Egypt or whatever. The bomb of Gilead. Right. The association of bomb with Gilead is

[00:15:21] likely an allusion to the fact that caravans from the east bearing supplies of bomb often passed

[00:15:28] through Gilead. Okay. So they were like sell your medicines elsewhere because they ain't going

[00:15:34] work here. Got it. They all gone die and nothing can help you. Got it. Got it. Yeah. So the defeat

[00:15:40] of Egypt at Karshamish was famous because it marked the beginning of Babylon as a true superpower

[00:15:46] in the region and the decline of Egypt. So that was the moment. Okay. Yeah. The specific moment that

[00:15:52] like the tides of wind completely changed. But just to put it back out there for the record.

[00:15:58] God said that Babylon was going to destroy annihilate all the all the Israelites in Egypt

[00:16:07] and by destroying Egypt. And he never made it past the front door. So yeah. I'm just saying. Yep.

[00:16:14] No, totally agree. I don't know. I don't know. These prophecies, these quote unquote prophecies,

[00:16:19] they're there only as right as they are convenient. Right. Yes. You know like we can we can point out

[00:16:26] in these books where prophecies are not correct. But people are going to be like, well, but it was

[00:16:31] correct here. Like yeah, but that's in your book. And yes, okay, in history that happened. But

[00:16:36] we don't even know when that was fucking written. Yeah. Sorry, I just I'm so annoyed with

[00:16:40] quote unquote prophecies. Oh yeah, totally. I agree. So okay. So he's saying in vain you will use

[00:16:47] many medicines, but you shall not be cured. Okay. The nations have heard of your shame and your

[00:16:54] cry has filled the land for the mighty man has stumbled against the mighty. They both have fallen

[00:17:02] together. Okay. Yeah, those two giants over there happens in war you fight each other and

[00:17:07] people fall and die and those two giants over there duked it out and sometimes one giant one and

[00:17:11] sometimes the other giant one right. And that sucks for all the little people getting sure to

[00:17:15] their mouth still does to this day right? To this day to this day. The word that the Lord spoke to

[00:17:23] Jeremiah the prophet how Nebuchadnezzar King of Babylon would come and strike the land of Egypt. Okay,

[00:17:29] so now we're like for the first part was about it was a prophecy about the defeat at Karsha

[00:17:38] Masha. Yeah, yeah. Okay. Right. So now we're reading a second prophecy which is the invasion of Egypt.

[00:17:45] Okay. So this is closer to like after the Babylonian exile is already underway and stuff, right?

[00:17:51] I'm assuming. I would think so. I mean sure. Okay. Sounds right. Yeah. You should never

[00:17:58] ask me about time periods and years because I'm wrong. So I've stopped. Yeah, I decided I'm no

[00:18:04] longer going to say yes, that is absolutely correct. Got it. Got it. Okay. Okay. Your cry is filled

[00:18:10] the lands the mighty man. Yeah. All you giants stumbling you both fallen together. The word that

[00:18:15] the Lord spoke to Jeremiah the prophet how Nebuchadnezzar King of Babylon would come and strike the land

[00:18:22] of Egypt. Okay. Yeah. Declare in Egypt, this is God talking to Jeremiah who was speaking. Yeah.

[00:18:30] Declare in Egypt and proclaim in MIGDOL proclaim in Noth and in Tupines say stand fast and prepare

[00:18:39] yourselves for the sword devours all around you. Why are your valiant men swept away? Did they

[00:18:46] did not stand because the Lord drove them away? Hmm. He made many fall. Yes, one fell upon another

[00:18:54] and they said arise. Let us go back to our own people and to the land of our nativity from the

[00:18:59] oppressing sword. They cried there. Pharaoh King of Egypt is but a noise. He has passed by the

[00:19:06] appointed time. So I have some notes. Okay. Other than Jeremiah really doesn't like Egypt and the

[00:19:12] Pharaohs. Right. Okay. Yeah. You know, because he's a double agent for Babylon. Yeah. Yeah. No, I

[00:19:18] mean like this is just keeps reinforcing. He's all like fucking Egypt. Right? Yeah. So they called

[00:19:25] Pharaoh a noise and what that actually was referring to was a braggart, a bombast, a loud mouth,

[00:19:33] a person who's all talk someone who's full of lip service. That kind of thing. Okay. A blow hard.

[00:19:39] Yeah. Okay. So another thing is Egypt proudly thought of her. Oh, wait, no, I'm not there yet.

[00:19:46] Never mind. So I'll get there in a second. Okay. Yep. So okay. They're like, he's just a noise

[00:19:53] that King of Egypt guy. Right? Right. As I live says the king whose name is the Lord of hosts

[00:20:00] surely as taboor is among the mountains and as Carmel by the sea. So he shall come. Yeah, he will.

[00:20:07] Oh, you daughter dwelling in Egypt. He's talking to the Israelites there. Yeah. Yeah. Prepare yourself

[00:20:13] to go into captivity for Noth shall be waste and desolate without inhabitants. So he's these are

[00:20:20] cities. He's naming off that he's like, y'all gonna get it? This city, this city, this city. Here

[00:20:25] we come into Egypt. I mean, I mean, I mean here Babylon comes not me. I'm just Jeremiah. Right.

[00:20:32] I was talking about them, not us. It's just that like the the the rhetoric towards Babylon who is

[00:20:39] conquering you know Israel. Yeah. It's very friendly coming from this book. Yeah. That's the part

[00:20:46] that just it just always strikes me like they're like his tool, his weapon, his you know like

[00:20:51] the servant. Yeah. I'm like, this guy they really Jeremiah really loves this guy. Yeah. Yeah.

[00:20:58] Yeah. Thanks. Well of them or at the very least he really hates Egypt. Or he's like Trump is with

[00:21:05] Putin and Babylon had something on him. Right. Right. Yeah. There's that possibility. And so he's

[00:21:11] like, I totally love them. I mean Babylon, you know, isn't it good to be friends with your enemies?

[00:21:17] Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Egypt is a very pretty heifer but destruction comes. It comes from the north.

[00:21:25] Also, her mercenaries are in her midst like fat bulls for they also are turned back. They have

[00:21:33] fled away together. Okay. Let's talk about that for a minute. Okay. Yeah. So Egypt proudly thought

[00:21:38] of herself as strong, great and beautiful. And God said that they were strong and pretty like a young

[00:21:44] cow a heifer but really they were just right for sacrifice like a cow is. Oh, I so they're like,

[00:21:51] I'm great. And he's like, yeah, you are a great steak. Right. Yeah. So there's that. Okay.

[00:22:00] Okay. Yeah. They have fled away together. They did not stand for the day of their calamity had come

[00:22:05] upon them the time of their punishment. Her noise shall go like a serpent for they shall march with an

[00:22:13] army and come against her with axes like those who chop wood. Okay. I gotta say something else now.

[00:22:20] Okay. The reference to Egypt the way it is in other translations like here, ours says she heard

[00:22:31] noise shall go like a serpent. Yeah. But in other translations, it says gliding away like a snake.

[00:22:38] Okay. And that either way well I think gliding away like a snake is worse and would have had more

[00:22:44] weight. Okay. It's a sarcastic comment on the humbling of thoth which was one of Egypt's most

[00:22:53] revered national deities. Okay. And one which was prominent in the royal insignia. And just to put

[00:23:00] that into frame of reference, the Egyptian God thought was equivalent to the Greek hermys or the

[00:23:06] Roman Mercury got it. So this was a low blow directed at one of their gods essentially. Yes, like

[00:23:13] there go your snake. There go your snake God. Yeah. Like if you if you recall seeing that Egyptian

[00:23:21] God guy with like the head of the eagle or something like that, like you know what I'm talking about?

[00:23:28] I am sure if I saw it, I would recognize it. Well he's got a stick that's got the caducia snakes

[00:23:34] wrapped around it. Okay. So that's who thoth is. Got it. So whatever. I don't know how to pronounce

[00:23:40] things. Sorry, I'm not a scholar or an academic. Okay. So yeah, they turned back, flew it away to

[00:23:49] go. Oh, shall go like a serpent for they shall march within our mean. Yeah, here come their acts

[00:23:53] as chop wood. Yeah. Right. Here we are. They shall cut down her forest says the Lord though it cannot

[00:23:59] be searched because they are innumerable and more numerous than grasshoppers. Oh, wow. Damn.

[00:24:06] The daughter of Egypt shall be ashamed. She shall be delivered into the hand of the people of

[00:24:12] the north as Babylon, they're talking about. Right. Yeah. The Lord of hosts, the God of Israel says,

[00:24:17] behold, I will bring punishment on a man of no and Pharaoh and Egypt with their gods and their kings

[00:24:27] Pharaoh and those who trust in him. And I will deliver them into the hand of those who seek their

[00:24:32] lives into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon and the hand of his servants afterward.

[00:24:40] It's funny though I have to stop you here for just a second because the Pharaoh that they invaded

[00:24:46] ended up like running away and using Babylon to come back and fight them. And they got stopped

[00:24:53] by the new Pharaoh who was actually not bad and reigned for like 50 years. Yeah. Not bad in so

[00:24:59] far as military. It just depends on which century you're talking about. Right, but I'm assuming based

[00:25:05] on what I'm hearing that is probably the as Babylon was taking over Jerusalem and all this other

[00:25:12] shows. They're like, whoa, Babylon's kicking ass. That'll surely never change forever. Right.

[00:25:16] Babylon will always win in its like my understanding based on the history thing that we brought up

[00:25:21] in the I figured which chapter it was. We talked about it, but that there was like an ongoing war

[00:25:25] for like five or six maybe even seven years or something like that where Nebuchadnezzar was trying to

[00:25:31] invade Egypt, but never actually succeeded. Yeah, exactly. So it's funny to me that this stuff is

[00:25:40] in the Bible as though it was prophecy that came true instead of as like that didn't actually

[00:25:48] really happen that way. Right. Maybe some of it kind of happened, but they promised complete 100%

[00:25:55] and right. That's not how that went. Yeah. I mean, I'm sure some border towns got taken over or

[00:26:01] were you know, we're in them, you know, questionable as far as people die. Yeah, right. Yeah.

[00:26:06] Exactly. Yeah. But Egypt did not get run over by Babylon. No, not completely anyway. Never.

[00:26:12] Afterward, it shall be inhabited as in the days of old says the Lord. Yeah, that didn't happen.

[00:26:18] Right. But do not fear. Oh my oh my servant Jacob and do not be dismayed. Oh, Israel.

[00:26:24] Here he comes saying, you know, but I still love you. It appears the redeeming thing. Yeah.

[00:26:28] I'm going to say yeah, I'm going to stab you 100 times and and but then I'm going to give you a

[00:26:33] bandaid right. And say I love you. Yeah. Yeah. For behold, I will save you from afar.

[00:26:40] And you're offspring from the land of their captivity. Jacob shall return, have rest,

[00:26:46] and be at ease. No one shall make him afraid. Okay. Do not fear. Oh, Jacob, my servant says the Lord

[00:26:55] for I am with you. For I will make a complete end of all the nations to which I have driven you.

[00:27:02] But I will not make a complete end of you except for sometimes but no, I won't but I will but I won't.

[00:27:07] Yeah. I'm going to kill all of you except some of you but all of you.

[00:27:11] Let's just checking checking the map here. Yep. Yep. Egypt is still there. Right? Yeah.

[00:27:16] Actually, yeah, they're still there and they have some important shit to say. Right. Yeah.

[00:27:22] I don't think there was ever a complete end to Egypt. Yeah. I will rightly correct you says God.

[00:27:28] For I will not leave you wholly unpunished. Okay. The end. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. You like whatever,

[00:27:38] dude? No, it's just I look I feel like Jeremiah is not a reliable source or or narrator here.

[00:27:46] Yeah. Kind of like, dude, say less. Yeah. And so I'm kind of over Jeremiah. Yeah. And I'm over the

[00:27:55] the false information that's being portrayed here in the Bible because yeah. Like it's literally

[00:28:01] telling us things as a prophecy that didn't at least fully happen. Right? Right? Yeah.

[00:28:08] This is this is this you remember back when we were when they were taking over Israel, right? And

[00:28:13] they were they were they killed all the Canaanites and all the Amonites and they all of them were gone.

[00:28:18] Yeah. We're 100% and then they just kept popping up like here there and everywhere. Yeah.

[00:28:23] And then like, well, we didn't meet everybody. You know, come on, come on. Come on. Nobody could kill

[00:28:30] everything. It's like, no, but you're God and you said you did and you're not very trustworthy if

[00:28:35] you say you did. And then later you're like, but I didn't. But it's just these themes where he says

[00:28:42] these these finalities right where things are going to definitely happen this way and things

[00:28:47] are going to you know, these people are all going to be gone or whatever. Right? And they just

[00:28:52] don't happen. But then an apologist would say you're taking the wrong message and

[00:28:57] you're you're being too hyperbolic and not understanding blah blah blah. And I'm like, oh,

[00:29:03] so then I'm not supposed to trust the Bible and and say that it's 100% true. And they're like,

[00:29:09] no, no, no, no, it is though. And then they're like, but it's not. They're like, well, not that part

[00:29:13] and then you're like, which other parts in there? Like only the ones I say if people actually

[00:29:17] studied this they're on the apologist are really shaky ground. Right? I mean, there's a lot of

[00:29:22] stuff actually wrong in the Bible. Yeah. And yes, you can twist words to make it sound like it's

[00:29:27] correct or this is correct or that's correct. If you put things in the context that you want them in.

[00:29:33] But if you're to read it and just examine it as it is, you're going to find a lot of fallacy.

[00:29:39] And the problem is that the only proof that these people have of God is this fucking book.

[00:29:45] Right. And that's the problem right there. This does not you can't use a 2000 year old book

[00:29:52] where people wrote about what they believe in God as the proof for God. Right. That doesn't work.

[00:29:57] Yeah, no, I totally agree. And that's that's the I mean, that's the problem I have right now. Like

[00:30:03] we're using this to influence politics and law and social mores. And like there's just like so much

[00:30:13] that this this information is relevant to because of what we now and currently are using this for.

[00:30:22] Yeah, so yeah, right? I'm just going off a little bit but it's fine. It's fair.

[00:30:28] All right. Well do you got anything else for us? That's pretty much it.

[00:30:32] All right. Well that was Jeremiah chapter 46. Sure.

[00:30:35] Fuck was which means that we'll be back tomorrow with Jeremiah chapter 47 in our live discord.

[00:30:43] Uh, is it? Do we yeah? Yeah. Yes. Yes. Yes it is. Yes it is. Yes.

[00:30:50] No, it's not. No, it's not. No, it's not. No, it's not. No, because tomorrow is Monday

[00:30:56] and we record Tuesday's episodes tomorrow. Yeah. And we always do this. Tell it. Yeah.

[00:31:02] It's the recording that night when you said it didn't feel right when you said it but like I was like,

[00:31:07] no, every once in a great while wife's right. So I'll just go for it until I think this through.

[00:31:13] I'm never right. I'm 100% wrong. Yeah, I should assume that right off the bat.

[00:31:17] You always should assume that. Yeah. Yeah. You've been married to me long enough. Right. Yeah.

[00:31:21] And we've been doing this podcast long enough that I should know better. But yeah, everybody out there

[00:31:26] always assume wife is wrong. All right. So we'll be back with which one then still sharing
