Video Corrections: 1. Jesus Juice is most likely referring to communion, where Baptist churches use grape juice as a substitute for wine, and not a Brazilian drink. 2. (Addendum, partial correction), I forgot to mention the crawl space that spawns when using the chaos card on Gideon 3. Adding onto the blue womb layer, the entry is correct, but is most likely on the iceberg because of the combat music that can't be heard on it normally 4. When saying "second boss item" at 11:30, I wasn't talking directly about the boss item pool, but I can definitely understand why people may have thought that I was, so that is a legitimate piece that needs correcting. Bumbino spawns an item from his own item pool. 5. Brimstone is actually in TF2, and when talking about them collectively, I made it sound like all 3 of the items mentioned weren't in the game. (I don't play TF2) 6. Tainted Lazarus, at the time of this icebergs creation, was legitimately unfinished. It's referring to the original character when Repentance came out, which was much harder than it is now. 7. Addendum to Tainted Edith, yes they did turn into salt for running from Sodom, but it was also because they looked back at Sodom during its destruction. If you spot any other inaccuracies, please let me know in the comments. I will make a pinned list of them on this comment, and update it when people find new things. Also, if you comment about the video having things wrong, but don't actually say what is incorrect, that is not helpful and I will ignore your comment.
yea and more, really not that great research was put into this sadly, like him saying if u sare bumbino he gives a second boss item, he actually gives from a unique pool
my favorite topic from this iceberg is the basilica and topheth floors. There’s something that interests me about an alt floor for the cathedral and sheol.
the fact that the VAs for Isaac, Magdelene, and Dad, are all related to each other in the same way as the characters they play is honestly so heartwarming. I hope everything goes right for all three of them. their voices add so much to the parts of the game that mean the most to me. (this is a repost bc of spam replies)
46:36 Edith was actually turned into salt for looking back at Sodom, which supposedly represented that she wanted to go back to sinning (since Sodom is considered a wicked city).
47:31 Jesus juice is most definitely a reference to communion. Baptist churches use grape juice as a substitute for wine, the item is clearly a juice box…
Small correction: Blue womb's layer actually refers to how music will get another layer if enemies in the room are really strong (not sure if it depends on how many of them are in the room, or on their hp). Blue womb's theme also has a music layer, but since there are no enemies on this floor you will probably never hear it ingame.
It doesn't have to be a strong enemy, just any enemy. For example, while the blue womb's extra layer will play in enemy-filled red rooms opened by red key on the treasure rooms, it will also play in crawlspaces with simple enemies, including the awful grey fly room.
I believe that Tainted Lazarus, at the time of the iceberg’s creation, was indeed unfinished, since flip lacked functionality and thus the character was unbalanced and nearly impossible to properly play. After flip got its functionality implemented, T Lazarus turned into a much more fun, more balanced character due to being able to get items for both lazaruses
His voice grated on my ears! I wish he got somebody else to narrate these videos. I for sure won’t be watching another one of them… This was brutal to get through.
I hope for a part 2. there are so MANY things that can be added. The Isaac 2 baby, the Wait, What? item swapping with butter to force its spawn, the Dad's Coin being a soberty coin. And so on...
Actually, i wonder if the "snail sprite" might be referring to the slow status effect symbol. As silly as that sounds, i personally never realized it was a snail until someone watching over my shoulder asked "what does that snail mean?" I was confused "what snail" until she pointed it out to me.
The snail sprite is probably a reference to an old spriting tutorial by Leathericecream (who worked on antibirth and repentance) where he drew a snail as the example sprite
11:54 just a small correction. Lambi is actually evil Issac which you can see beacouse lamb spawns in a room laying just like Issac anx atacking with not red tears which most of the times represents connection to Issac
FYI: Mom’s last name “Moriah” also comes from the Bible, but no one seems to mention that or discuss the meaning behind the Biblical word. Unthorough people just think that Edmund simply chose a random name that started with an M, so the the initials would say “MOM.”
I'm pretty sure I saw a reddit post from a few years ago that showed that breakfast is hard coded to spawn when the game has no valid item to spawn, so it isn't a bug
Bro I know. I tried watching the video, but I couldn't even get to 5 minutes. I'm sure the video is great, but I just can't stand listening to this guy's voice 💀
I think Blue Womb Layer might also be a reference to the nerve looking overlay that appears on screen during the Hush fight whenver it takes damage, in normal gameplay it looks barely noticeable but when using an instakill item like Plan C is actually goes to 100% opacity and looks very ominous
good video! just two notes: *"eternal return" is likely refering to the wrath of the lamb free dlc "The Binding of Isaac: Eternal Edition" or "Eternal Update", this dlc added a hard mode that had a very hard versions of enemies and bosses that were white (like champions), you can check more on the wiki. it also may be an allusion to the mod that got made for repentence about the eternal edition that if i recall correctly got kinda popular. *"jesus juice actual meaning" could also be related to wine, like said in the trivia on the rebirth wiki ""Jesus juice" is slang for the red wine used in Holy Communion, which is supposed to signify the blood of Jesus. When children take communion, instead of letting them have wine, most churches will let them have grape juice instead, which is why the item is a box of grape juice.". this also is kind of hinted in the item description but it could be all of the references (didnt knew the Michael Jackson thing, just searched it and... damn that's a lot-) (repost bc comment got deleted, probably bc i linked to the wiki) (also the comment is more extensive so apologies if i made some mistakes, english isn't my first lenguage)
As a brazillian, i gotta say that everyone who likes soda has to try guarana jesus, it is really good. Also, i had never made the connection between it and jesus juice
40:30 This footage looks familiar, I wonder why lol. Great video my guy and thank you for crediting me. I only just saw this, hense why I'm so late. I'm a little saddened that Curse of the Giant never made it into Repentance, it would've been such an interesting and unique curse.
ok 1. Amazing editing ohhh my god I am obsessed with how well this is made. Kudos 2. Thank you for adding Ed's "Isaac is 5" tweet when talking about the whole cum question. I feel the tboi community really forgets Isaac is. a child Thank you so much for this video my day has been blessed (or cursed haha)
The dads note theory is very interesting seeing as it allows Issac to go back up to home and unlock Tainted characters because Isaac has been Tainted by the idea of suicide, very interesting (potential) secret that I hadn’t thought about.
Had a great time eventhough i know most of this stuff by heart ... just a few details you forgot to mention 1)greg the egg is a meme from hutt's channel, he really loves that mod and even asked ed how much did he had to pay him to add greg to the game. 2) dumplings come from some old ed's games
The games soundtrack irritates me as background music because my brain is conditioned to think i accidently left the game open and still hear the sound
What is the point of having a “confidence meter” if you’re going to be completely wrong and even acknowledge you’ve no idea and still give you a 6/6 ffs
The original Binding of Isaac with the Wrath of the Lamb DLC was a game thatI found on an unblocked pirate website that I spread around the school when Chromebooks were starting to become popular to give to students to take home. Its one of the few paid games Ive ever pirated (that are actually being sold) and it turned into about 50 dollars for the whole franchise, with repentance. So worth it
Funny fact: after localization into game was added, russian tranlators made slight joke adding to Abaddon achivement note drawing of russian youtuber Neonimi referencing moment from his stream shouting item name, but literally patch later it was removed
My interpretation of the note theory was that it was related to the screen the player sees upon death, which takes on new meaning when it is shown that Isaac willingly locked himself in a toy chest
12:03 I'd like to mention as a correction that Edmund has stated that Lamb is meant to be Isaac, but now dead and as a demon, not as Jesus or the lamb sacrificed in the story of Abraham and Isaac.
This may be the only iceberg that I know almost all of the entries. Great video man. PS There's also R34 content made by Edmund himself. (It's nothing graphic tbh but still weird)
44:48 The reference is definitely correct but the information is definitely wrong. In the time of Constantine (3-4th century A.D.), a previous emperor named Aurelian began a sort of monotheistic cult to a sun god after having claiming to have had a vision of the god before winning multiple battles. This got a little conflated with Christianity when Constantine did something similar to Aurelian: he claimed to have a vision where he was told by God to bear the symbol of the cross and conquer in his name. HOWEVER, Christianity was founded and thriving before either of these guys.
wasnt stated in the video alongside the other two easter egg seeds, but modesven is a reference to mode seven on the SNES, which was a special graphical mode that allowed for the most features for displaying advanced graphics at the cost of only having two background layers at your disposal, however they boast the highest bits per pixel (BBP), which is effectively a measure of how many colors you can have on that layer, with layer zero having 8 BBP and layer one having 7 BBP, meaning layer 0 can use 255 colors and layer 1 having 127 colors (technically 254 and 126 because index 0 of any given color palette is treated as being transparent) Credit goes to Retro Game Mechanics Explained for their series on how the SNES hardware and software functions on how I have this knowledge
With Isaac being the lamb, at around 12:00, I'm pretty sure edmun has said that every single enemy in the game is Isaac, every creature and thing is all just Isaac, even if it doesn't clearly resemble them.
i assume that every male monster (except maybe daddy long legs, and possibly the angels) is Isaac, and every female monster (and also Satan + his incarnations) are mom Some exceptions may occur like delirium being the hallucinations from suffocating In the chest, dogma being the Christian TV channels, and maybe dingle being Isaac shitting himself, Chad being Chad from super meat boy (also other monsters from Edmunds other games and smb) Larry(?) Being a maggot that's probably eating his corpse, Bob being the uncle, and probably some bosses like widow could potentially be spiders crawling inside the chest TLDR: the enemies represent Isaacs fears, and his views of himself
It was so jarring hearing Leather be mentioned, I used to be friends with him wayyy back when he did mainly just creepypasta videos (circa 2015 or so?), would talk to him like every day on Skype haha. Never had a falling out, just simply stopped talkin after a while, wonder how he's doing. It's so cool to see he's became a huge part of Isaac, I remember him making some videos about the game way back then, never knew he was on the actual Repentance team. Small world!
In blade strangers, Isaac is a setplay character, capitalizing on knockdowns to set spiders/flies/bombs to continue applying pressure. He was my main, though I didn't play much
The meaning of Jesus juice is that, in most of the churches, they don't use wine during the holy supper (idk if this is the right name), so they use grape juice to symbolize the wine (blood of Christ)
Roman Catholicism deriving from a "sun based" religion is an old accusation leveled against Catholics by prejudiced Protestant groups, and the claim has no more historical basis than saying Christianity as a whole derives from a sun based religion 44:55
great video but i have an idea what to do insead of just "iceberg heart meter". You can have 12 hearts in isaac in two rows and there is a lot of different types of them so why dont use that. Just make that into two meters with 6 heart containers as a confidence meter and 6 soulhearts as a data completeness meter. Something like challenge 45? 6 red 6 blue hearts, it exists and we know everything we need to know. Void rework? 6 red 0 blue, it was confirmed but we know nothing more than that. Something like self game end note theory? We have a lot of information but we cant tell if its true with much confidence. 1 red 5 blue
@@gmdblue fair but still, icebergs videos are an hour long so there is a lot of time to grasp the concept, almost every game with enough content to even make the iceberg have two bars somewhere, and that would be a unique addition that would make your videos stand out from the other iceberg you tubers. It doesn't hurt to experiment a little bit :3
@@kontousuniente4952 True, which is why I liked the d6 idea, it seemed like a fresh enough spin on the meter idea. I thought about doing soul hearts, black hearts, and whatever else but the last 2 vids used hearts and I wanted to put some more variety
From what I understand the pumpkin mask was meant to work like krampus's head. The undefined glitch in flash isaac would show the sprite of every item in the game, including the pumpkin mask item that could never actually be accessed.
Great video! Helped me to learn lots of new stuff and correct misconceptions Plus listening Jesus with a mexican pronunciations instead of the portugueses one is always funne
10:22 i remember playing coop with my brother (and my friend i think) and accidentaly finding the pog baby (I had a ps4 controller for my brother (i couldn't get the other controller for my friend to bluetooth))
This reminds me: the "upcoming" version of the IPECAC Community Mod (of which I'm a coder, and the main reason for its hiatus) is meant to feature the Southern Cross constellation as a planetarium item. And I took some effort to use the one mention in Brazil's anthem to the Cross as its flavor text. Hope we release this update some day, damn, it's been in the oven for dar too long
In terms of the jesus juice thing, im honestly more inclined to think it's the second, much more dark thing you mentioned, as it fits in isaac much more than some random Brazilian beverage.
Yo, Fighting Game player here who was, at one point, gonna play Blade Strangers competatively. If you're still curious, Isaac is a low tier. He has really bad range on his normal attacks and is way too reliant on gimmicky projectiles that most characters have ways of getting past. If anyone's reading this who wants to play the game casually, he's still fun to play and has quite a few deep cut references to the game.

In blade strangers, Isaac is a setplay character, capitalizing on knockdowns to set spiders/flies/bombs to continue applying pressure.
He was my main, though I didn't play much
Glad to see badger turning his life around 🔥🔥
no way Michael's son plays binding of isaac
lmaoo
Jizzle
The meaning of Jesus juice is that, in most of the churches, they don't use wine during the holy supper (idk if this is the right name), so they use grape juice to symbolize the wine (blood of Christ)
Catholic Church uses real wine for the Eucharist (albeit weak/watered down).

Roman Catholicism deriving from a "sun based" religion is an old accusation leveled against Catholics by prejudiced Protestant groups, and the claim has no more historical basis than saying Christianity as a whole derives from a sun based religion 44:55
Bros one of my favorite two RUclipsrs of all time
great video but i have an idea what to do insead of just "iceberg heart meter". You can have 12 hearts in isaac in two rows and there is a lot of different types of them so why dont use that. Just make that into two meters with 6 heart containers as a confidence meter and 6 soulhearts as a data completeness meter. Something like challenge 45? 6 red 6 blue hearts, it exists and we know everything we need to know. Void rework? 6 red 0 blue, it was confirmed but we know nothing more than that. Something like self game end note theory? We have a lot of information but we cant tell if its true with much confidence. 1 red 5 blue
Cool idea, but that might be too complicated for an average viewer to keep up with. I like keeping it simple to a certain degree
@@gmdblue fair but still, icebergs videos are an hour long so there is a lot of time to grasp the concept, almost every game with enough content to even make the iceberg have two bars somewhere, and that would be a unique addition that would make your videos stand out from the other iceberg you tubers. It doesn't hurt to experiment a little bit :3
@@kontousuniente4952 True, which is why I liked the d6 idea, it seemed like a fresh enough spin on the meter idea. I thought about doing soul hearts, black hearts, and whatever else but the last 2 vids used hearts and I wanted to put some more variety
gotta love the spike in “most replayed” during the magic fingers animation
The Keeper ARG is unironically the best ARG I've heard of
No shot this channel just turned into an iceberg channel lmao
You did my request! Thank you so much!
I wanted to post the Edmund McMillen trash game copypasta but it deleted my comment so.. great video overhaul
From what I understand the pumpkin mask was meant to work like krampus's head. The undefined glitch in flash isaac would show the sprite of every item in the game, including the pumpkin mask item that could never actually be accessed.
this was an excellent watch! Definitely subbing up
I can't believe that Jesus juice is based on Guaraná Jesus... Little fun fact: guaraná Jesus tastes like bubblegum
It could very well not be, but I’m highly confident that it could be
Isaac singing after realizing jesus loves him made me cry.
The most mindblowing part of this video was that Cricket is a cat and not like a chihuahua
edith got turned into a pillar of salt because she looked back after being told not to, not because she ran
My least favourite part about this video is how the D6 doesn't have a white outline when it's fully charged
sowwy
@@gmdblue google really thought that was in another language
Thank you for bringing my attention to the Lusting of Isaac mod. Too bad it doesn't get updates tho...
Great video! Helped me to learn lots of new stuff and correct misconceptions
Plus listening Jesus with a mexican pronunciations instead of the portugueses one is always funne
10:22 i remember playing coop with my brother (and my friend i think) and accidentaly finding the pog baby
(I had a ps4 controller for my brother (i couldn't get the other controller for my friend to bluetooth))
Wait a second... You're telling me this entire time cricket was a cat? I could have sworn that was a dog 🤣 I've been thinking that for years
I wish I wasnt fucking addicted to this game, because I am way too bad at it for having spent over 100 hours in it
This was a good video I enjoyed it. It informed me about lots of cool things like mods, and old content. As well as those uh not so cool things
GUARANA JESUS FROM BRAZIL, MARANHÃO IS REPRESENTING THE BR FANDOM OF TBOI 🎸🦄
This reminds me: the "upcoming" version of the IPECAC Community Mod (of which I'm a coder, and the main reason for its hiatus) is meant to feature the Southern Cross constellation as a planetarium item. And I took some effort to use the one mention in Brazil's anthem to the Cross as its flavor text. Hope we release this update some day, damn, it's been in the oven for dar too long
Fun fact : isaacs moms name is maggy and his uncles name is bob
Who does this guy sound like? Its like actually hurting my head. Banger video tho i love this game
badger from breaking bad
@@dgsmz smoking meth and playing some Christian broadcast on the tele
I knew barely any of these facts, awesome video
In terms of the jesus juice thing, im honestly more inclined to think it's the second, much more dark thing you mentioned, as it fits in isaac much more than some random Brazilian beverage.
i'm very confused as to what that more dark thing is
Yo, Fighting Game player here who was, at one point, gonna play Blade Strangers competatively. If you're still curious, Isaac is a low tier. He has really bad range on his normal attacks and is way too reliant on gimmicky projectiles that most characters have ways of getting past. If anyone's reading this who wants to play the game casually, he's still fun to play and has quite a few deep cut references to the game.
18:21 wooow this makes so much sense considering the mother ending
oh man im going to love this vid
Mickey mouse discussing isaac lore is real
Missed opportunity to name this the Binding of Iceberg xD
"Jesus juice" is slang for the red wine used in Holy Communion, which is supposed to signify the blood of Jesus.
