Husband and Wife answer a question we've all been asking for a while now: Why the heck are there TWO books of Samuel? Particularly when my guy dies half way thru the first one? (tl;dr... It's the end of an era.) We also get distracted by the Dead Sea Scrolls because OBVIOUSLY. Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/sacrilegious-discourse-bible-study-for-atheists/donations

Husband and Wife review the book of 1 Samuel as the story of Israel’s transition from a theocracy to a monarchy. Samuel was the last Judge, and only half of this book is even about him, so the title is questionable. We kick the quiz's and put this book to bed!

Husband and Wife cover 1 Samuel chapter 31: The Death of Saul and His Sons. The Philistines made Saul dead and took his head. They decided to install Saul's head on a wall. The Israelites saw Saul's head on the wall, and with a squall they decided to haul Saul home instead. And that's it for Saul, y'all!

Husband and Wife cover 1 Samuel chapter 30: David Defeats the Amalekites. David's guys are so wishy- washy in this chapter: "I love you ! I want to stone you to death! I'm super-dee-duper tired! Don't cross the streams! We shouldn't share! Give everybody everything!" Ugh, my neck hurts from the whiplash. Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/sacrilegious-discourse...

Husband and Wife cover 1 Samuel chapter 29: The Philistines Distrust David. David bats his eyelashes all innocent-like and goes, "Who, ME? I would NEVER." Even tho he totally did. David is a conniving, murderous liar but it's all okay because God loves him. Blah. Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/sacrilegious-discourse-bible-study-for-atheists/donations

Husband and Wife cover 1 Samuel chapter 28: David Lives among the Philistines (cont) / Saul and the Medium at En-dor. The king goes to the planet of the ewoks and orders medium fries. Obviously that's not really what happened because ewoks aren't real. What actually happened is that Saul talked to a ghost because that is totally a thing that is real.

Husband and Wife cover 1 Samuel chapter 26: David Spares Saul at Ziph. Which is befuddling since didn't they already make up in the last chapter when David spared Saul while he was taking a wee? Anyways, they're friends again. Maybe. Who could know? (Wife MADE me leave in "anyways" FYI) Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/sacrilegious-discourse-bible-study-for-atheists/...

Husband and Wife cover 1 Samuel chapter 25: David and Abigail / Nabal Angers David. Not sure if this is relevant but oh hey Samuel is DEAD even tho we aren't done with this book yet and there's a whole second book in his name. This chapter brings us a cranky character with high blood pressure who dies of a stroke, and his bootlicker wife who goes on to marry David, who apparently just trad...

Husband and Wife cover 1 Samuel chapter 24: David Spares Saul at Engedi. We learned that you probably shouldn't pee in a cave, but if you do, watch your hems because some creepster might sneak up and cut them off. And when THAT happens, be sure to thank the peeping Tom for not murdering you. Class dismissed. Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/sacrilegious-discourse-bible-study-for...

Husband and Wife cover 1 Samuel chapter 23: David in the Wilderness. In spite of betrayal, David made it thru the wilderness; somehow he made it thruuu. He and Saul play Pop Goes the Weasel around a mountain. The Bible tells us that rock is great, and We 👏 Are 👏 Here 👏 For 👏 It.

Husband and Wife cover 1 Samuel chapter 22: David Flees from Saul (cont.) / Saul Kills the Priests of Nob. We engage in that age-old philosophical debate of when it's okay to be that guy who's "just following orders" versus when it's better to risk losing everything by standing up against evil. Obviously we reach a brilliant conclusion and solve all the world's problems (in...

Husband and Wife cover 1 Samuel chapter 20: The Friendship of David and Jonathan. Saul is super mean to his son and then, in typical Saul style, he throws a spear at him, because obviously Saul is wacko. We're still convinced that Jonathan and David are an item, but too bad for them, because they have to break up. womp womp. Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/sacrilegious-discours...

Husband and Wife cover 1 Samuel chapter 19: Saul Seeks to Kill David. Yes, again. He does more spear-throwing but of course it fails. Saul's daughter pulls a Ferris Bueller so David can run away and tattle to Samuel. Then Saul gets naked and lies in the road because he's super loopy. Apropos of nothing, we wanna hear your thoughts on the new Supernatural spin-off. Support this podcast at —...
