Sacrilegious Discourse - Bible Study for Atheists

Husband and Wife cover 2 Chronicles chapter 1: Solomon's Prayer for Wisdom / Solomon's Trade in Horses and Chariots. Residual David still makes an appearance cuz the Chronicler is like,  "Why can't I quit you?!" Solomon is a wise ass and sells horses to support his habit.

We just finished reading 1 Chronicles, so it's time for Husband and Wife to play another round of a game called You're Always Wrong. You may be shocked to learn that we've found a few contradictions in the Bible. No wonder it's so easy to cherry-pick quotes to back up any claim!

Husband and Wife recap 1 Chronicles, a book which itself is a recap of Genesis—Kings. The first part covers genealogy; the second part covers David's reign; and the third part covers stuff that never happened: David's preparation for the New Temple. We're now halfway done with that lying liar, the Chronicler! Skip the ads by joining Acast+ https://plus.acast.com/s/6331d364470c7900137bb...

Husband and Wife cover questions about why the Chronicler was so in love with David. Turns out the Deuteronomist and the Chronicler were writing at cross purposes, to entirely different audiences. While this makes sense, history's speaking, it doesn't excuse the fact that the Chronicler is a total snooze-fest who is all up David's butt. Skip the ads by joining Acast+ https://plus.acast...

Husband and Wife cover 1 Chronicles chapter 29: Solomon Succeeds David as King (cont.) / The Death of David. In this final chapter of 1 Chronicles, the Chronicler leaves out many important stories of figures such as Bathsheba, Joab, Abishag, and Adonijah. He exaggerates David's deeds to the point of stupidity, and overlooks any potential failings. The Chronicler really sucks at chronicling Chr...

Husband and Wife cover 1 Chronicles chapter 28:  Solomon Succeeds David as King.  The Chronicler is still out there lying his lies about David's accomplishments which would literally have had to happen from his deathbed. Pretty sure dude had a boy-band poster of David over his bed. The undoing of everything we've read thus far is excruciatingly infuriating! Skip the ads by joining Acast+ h...

Husband and Wife cover 1 Chronicles chapter 27:   The Officers of the Kingdom.  Mr Earthy President Boss-Guy Man has SO many employees -- more numerous than all the stars in the sky, if that liar the Chronicler is to be believed. But they only have to work for one month out of the year, just like NaNoWriMo participants in November. Speaking of which, hit me up if you wanna be my writing buddy. The...

Husband and Wife cover 1 Chronicles chapter 26: The Porters and Overseers. The mildly capable Chronicler discusses several gates and the capable men who kept them. Some were more capable than others and they got to count the money.

Husband and Wife cover 1 Chronicles chapter 25: The Divisions of the Musicians. We spice up this most boring of chapters with a little role-play! Amidst a litany of unpronounceable names is a report of broken cymbals and harp strings.

Husband and Wife cover 1 Chronicles chapter 24:   The Divisions and Duties of the Levites (cont).  Not only is the Chronicler a big fat liar-face, he's also boring af. Lots of names here and a reminder that God is a murdery s.o.b. Plus you get to hear how Wife kicked the ground like the clown that she truly is! We have a live discussion coming up with Okay Atheists on Twitter this Thursday! We...

Husband and Wife cover 1 Chronicles chapter 23:  David's Preparation for the Temple (cont.) / The Divisions and Duties of the Levites. The Chronicler is still a super liar, and he left out the tale of Bathsheba altogether, which indicates David truly was a schmuck, or else why bother hiding that shit? This book is so annoying! We have a live discussion coming up with Okay Atheists on Twitter t...

Husband and Wife cover 1 Chronicles chapter 22:  The Site for the Temple (cont.) / David's Preparation for the Temple.  The Chronicler really ticks us off in this chapter as he keeps calling the building materials innumerable, un-weigh-able, and uncountable, all of which is nonsense because nothing on this planet is immeasurable and literally all they had to do was COUNT. It's not like the...

Husband and Wife cover 1 Chronicles chapter 21:  David Numbers Israel and Judah / The Site for the Temple.   Remember that time David wore a potato sack? You know, because he actually wasn't perfect after all? And God punished the people for David's sin? And an angel of the lord drew his sword? Yeah, cool story, bro. Again.
