Genesis 35 — Sex, Death, and Reruns
Here God renames (or re-renames) Jacob as Israel; Rachel, Isaac, and a nurse of Rebekah's all die in separate incidents; and Reuben (son of Jacob) has sex with his dad's concubine. Who was that (un)masked man that wres… -
Genesis 31 — The Yahweh made me do it
Fortunately for Jacob, people are scared of Yahweh. So they often seem to do unfair things clearly against their interests just to make him happy. Now, I am not an expert in the Bible, and that's not the point of this b… -

Genesis 22 — If you love me, kill your son
If you really love me, prove it by killing your son! That's what God says to Abraham in this chapter. God doesn't make Abraham go through with it, though, so all's well that ends well, right? There is so much wrong wit… -
Genesis 21 — EweTube
Some more great family fun here, with some ewes thrown in at the end for fun! Sarah the 90+ year old has a boy, Isaac. She thinks it's hilarious that she would have a son at her age, as does everyone else. That rascal …
