In this chaotic and confusing episode, Husband and Wife delve into the labyrinth of prophecies in Isaiah, chapter 22. They journey through the townsfolk's obliviousness to an imminent battle, the civilization's hedonistic tendencies despite impending doom, and a chilling revelation that their sins won't be pardoned. The hosts hilariously struggle to decode the cryptic language and barr...

Strap in, non-believers, for an episode chock-full of wild prophetic gymnastics that would give even Nostradamus a run for his money. Dive into the perplexing world of Isaiah's prophecies, where historical context gets blurry, timelines are fluid, and vague statements are treated as profound truths. Listen in as we untangle the so-called prophetic judgment on Moab, a society seemingly destined...

This episode of our bible study for atheists presents a comedic deep-dive into the peculiar commandment given by God to Isaiah - to roam about nude and shoeless for three years. Husband and Wife jovially wrestle with this odd mandate, the prophet's nudity, and its role as a warning against Egypt and Kush. They entertainingly picture Isaiah strutting about with a 'naked swagger' and dis...

We're decoding the infamous Book of Isaiah and oh boy, does it get weird. Ever wondered about the oppression of the Moabites, or why the hell a raisin cake from Kier Herseth is a big deal?

Husband and Wife discuss Lucifer Morningstar, the Light-Bringer, and how he relates to Venus, the devil, the dawn, Jesus, the satan, giants, and jinn.  Most Jews do not believe in the existence of a supernatural omnimalevolent figure. But Christians eat that junk like candy marked down to 75% off the week after Halloween! — in this bonus episode for Patreon subscribers only.  Subscribe to Patreon...

Isaiah Chapters 11 - 15 Q&A: Listen in as we embark on an enlightening exploration of the intriguing mysteries of Isaiah. First, we clear up some confusion regarding the term "Lordas," a misprint that should have been "Lord as." We discuss how simple errors can lead to misinterpretations and, in this case, an entirely new word that can throw off our understanding of the text. W...

Husband and Wife cover Isaiah chapter 14:  The Prophecy Against the King of Babylon / Assyria to Be Destroyed / The Prophecy Concerning Philistia. God will let the remaining Israelites make slaves of their enemies. Then he will encourage his followers to literally taunt the very people that God sent to kill the Israelites in the first place. Yes, that's right — ridicule, tease, and bully survi...

Husband and Wife cover Isaiah chapter 13:  The Proclamation Against Babylon. Isaiah gives this creepy speech about how the Babylonians are gonna get smashed and not in the good way. Babies will be murdered and women will be raped. It's all very exciting and I can't wait to get baptized. Just kidding. This book is gross and I'm so tired of trying to find new ways to say God is a dick. B...

Husband and Wife cover Isaiah chapter 12:  The LORD to Be Praised. We interrupt this already crazy story to bring you some unexpected, unnecessary, and unbelievably stupid worshipping of a mentally unstable, capricious, mercurial, murderous higher power. It was added in later and clearly does not belong here, but editing has been shoddy all along, so why start getting it right NOW? You know what?...

Husband and Wife cover Isaiah chapter 11: The Righteous Reign of the Branch of Jesse / Israel Reclaimed and Reunited / The Peace of the Reign of the Messiah. Wife is unhappy with how "New Testament" this is starting to feel, so Husband suggests we look at more Jewish study references. We agree that Christians should stop shunning vegetarians since it's literally foretold that meat-eate...

Isaiah Chapters 1 - 10 Q&A Husband and Wife answer questions about tools, thrones, virgins, and Renfield. The story so far: God tells his people that if they don't worship him, he's gonna kill most of 'em. We're supposed to think the fact that he's not killing 100% of them is a kindness — a generous show of his beneficence. Apologists can't understand why we wouldn'...

Husband and Wife cover Isaiah chapter 10: The LORD's Anger against Israel (cont.) / The LORD's Use of Assyria. Isaiah speaks as God speaking as the Assyrian King, and it's not confusing at aaaaall. God calls the Assyrians a bunch of tools and then says he's gonna kill most of his people and the two people that are left should not be scared because murder and mayhem isn't terrif...

Husband and Wife cover Isaiah chapter 9: God is Big Mad and throwing a tantrum so a bunch of people have to die. His Chosen Ones didn't choose him back, which is a super bummer for Sky Daddy. The thing is, there's no way the people could have known who to follow because even God admits that the leaders were guiding them astray, so basically his feefees are all hurt because the people guess...
