In this episode of Sacrilegious Discourse, husband and wife team dive into the final chapter of Daniel Chapter 12 (https://sacrilegiousdiscourse.com/podcast/sacrilegious-discourse-bible-study-for-atheists/episode/daniel-chapter-12-bible-study-by-atheists), wrapping up the chaotic and bewildering visions of Daniel. Buckle up as we explore the apocalyptic prophecies and the bizarre mentions of zombies that make this chapter a wild ride.
We start by recapping Daniel Chapter 11 (https://sacrilegiousdiscourse.com/podcast/sacrilegious-discourse-bible-study-for-atheists/episode/daniel-chapter-11-bible-study-by-atheists), where Daniel's vision was a confusing mess of future wars, kings, and conquerors. We discuss the historical and scholarly interpretations involving figures like Antiochus, and how these prophecies were likely written centuries after the events they supposedly predict.
In Chapter 12, we delve into the "time of the end," where Michael the Archangel makes an appearance, and we encounter a vivid description of a resurrection, where the dead rise to either everlasting life or everlasting contempt. We question the origins of these apocalyptic visions and their impact on modern religious beliefs.
From discussing the absurdity of forced prophecies to the intriguing yet baffling historical context, we dissect the chapter with our signature blend of skepticism and humor. Whether you're here for the theological critique or just the laughs, this episode has a bit of everything.
