Drunk Bible Study

Is Yahweh a construct made up by Moses and Aaron to control the people? If not, what does Yahweh look like? Is he old and bearded but still ripped like Michelangelo's depiction of him on the Sistine Chapel's ceiling? What is theophany? What's the difference between falling on ones face (and how often does this happen) and bowing low? We explore all this and more in today's bonus episode!

Yahweh thins the crowds again this week after Korah starts questioning why Mose and Aaron are the men considered holy enough to lead. People are swallowed by the earth, burned to a crisp, and killed by a plague. Bronze censers are rescued from the ashes and melted down to make a new covering for the altar to remind the people of who can and cannot approach it. Yahweh has a genius idea to settle the leadership debate. A man from each of the 12 tribes brings a rod to the tabernacle. The first rod to produce buds will be the rod of the man Yahweh wants to lead. Of course, when Moses checks on the rods the next day, Aaron's has not only produced blossoms, but also has borne ripe almonds. The tribes begin to worry that Yahweh is going to destroy them all...

Today we briefly touch on the major divisions of the books of the Old Testament. We discuss who actually authored the Psalms and listen to pieces of music Psalm 90 might have been set to. We also touch on what's hot with the Jewish prayer shawl, also known as the tallit, and the controversy H&M caused when they released a knock off of it in 2017.

Today Moses' and Aaron fall on their faces before the congregation and almost get stoned. Yahweh contemplates starting over... again, but Moses, the original spin doctor of the Old Testament, turns the situation around. It is decreed that anyone over the age of 20 who isn't related to Caleb or Joshua will be denied entrance to the land of milk and honey, due to the sins of 10 of the 12 scouts sent to find the Promised Land. Plagues, curses, and more rules about stoning and prayer shawls are handed down. Yahweh passes along some recipes for the next round of offerings and the rule about not working on the Sabbath is enforced in a very serious way!
