Wholly Buyable50: The Horror (Deuteronomy 28-30)When most people think of the Bible, the first thing that comes to mind generally isn't fathers greedily chewing on the corpses of their children. This ghoulish image is one suggested by Moses as a potential reality in post-belief Israel. If God's people turn away from him, horror will rain down on them, he says. As you'll see, Moses doesn't hold back, hence the explicit content warning.This is episode 50 btw, so thanks to all of you for making these podcasts worthwhile.

Wholly Buyable49: Grabbed by the Balls (Deuteronomy 24-28)Fairness, kindness, social justice and human rights are not values often associated with the Old Testament, a book that is famed for its violence, intolerance and misogyny. Yet read between the lines and you'll see that there is an overarching sense of protecting the weak and making sure that everyone has a fair crack at life.

And lots of stoning for anyone who chooses to make up their own rules...Chapters covered: Deuteronomy 20-23Written and produced by Chas BayfieldMusic composed by Michael Auld and Jon Hawkins MusicCover art by Lisa GoffConversions:2½lb = 1.2kg1¼lb = 575g2023-05-0921 min
Wholly Buyable47: The Purge (Deuteronomy 14-19)A lot rests on Israel's people getting it right when they get to Canaan and for Moses, there's no such thing a being too prepared, After all, he spent over 80 days up Mount Sinai with God having been handpicked to lead his people out of Egypt and into their new home. If all goes well and the people continue to trust in God, life will be a breeze in the bucolic paradise. If they lose their focus however, things will be less rosy.

Wholly Buyable46: Smashed and Burned (Deuteronomy 10-13)The Book of Deuteronomy doesn’t promise any high octane action sequences.

Wholly Buyable45: Scorpions and Snakes (Deuteronomy 7-9)"A vast, dreadful, thirsty, waterless wilderness filled with poisonous snakes and scorpions." This is what the Israelites can expect if they turn from God and go their own way once they have settled in their new land. And they have form, as Moses is only too willing to remind them. The current generation who he is addressing in advance of the invasion of Canaan may be no saints but their parents behaved appallingly - it is their fault that the journey from Egypt has taken 40 years rather than 2 months. It's a history lesson, but quite a lurid one. 2023-04-1820 min
Wholly Buyable44: The All-Consuming Fire (Deuteronomy 3-6)Huddled by the river and, as Lady Gaga might say, standing on the edge of glory, the Israelites still have a long way to go before they are fully prepped to enter the Promised Land.

It also covers off who a man may or may not take as a sexual partner before rattling through some apparently random rules.
