@boof's2cents 🤔You can correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't the Bible translated directly from the language it was written in, Hebrew, Greek, and Aramaic, to English?

The Nephilim is my favourite one, i was always fascinated by this legend and even have a theory that all the gods of the various mythos like the greek or norse ones are actually Nephilim.

“Giants” can mean a lot of things. In modern day US, the avg male height is what? 5’10”? So we loosely call guys like Shaq or the Mountain, “giants.” In those days in the Middle East, the avg male height was probably around 5’5” so anyone 6 1/2ft or greater (like Goliath) was called a giant.

This is one of the most interesting and truly unbiased videos on such a debatable subject. I, personally, have never had a great relationship with religion and I know I’ve unfairly stereotyped those who are religious. So thank you for not just an interesting video, but for one that was done in a knowledgeable and unbiased way.
I enjoy this, because whilst the stories are definitely “weird” you applied nuance and used the linguistic, historical, and theological context in order to make sense out of them. That takes more time than just saying “ lol religion “
Actually the bible doesnt give any definite answer to the age of the earth and universe. Nowhere is it stated the amount of time between creating Adam and removing him from Eden. He could have been there for millions of years, nobody knows.
So years depicted in the bible about a man from millions of years ago by people from a few thousand years ago are the exact same duration of today’s years? Rethink it bro.
According to Scholars, Nephilims in the Genesis are actually just some really strong tall warriors. Genesis was written in the era when written Hebrew had just started. So there were many limitations. So the author of the Genesis used the best possible Hebrew word of his time to describe these warriors. In Hebrew of Genesis' time, Giants means really strong tall men. They're very different from the pop version of giants
I never thought of these stories as weird. They were some of my favorite biblical stories growing up. I appreciate the effort put into explaining these.
Yeah. Most, if not all of the stories I take literally. There are tons of metaphors and imagery too but a lot of what people try to argue is metaphoric, I believe that it literally happened
Yes. The parables Jesus tells aren't always literal. But all of these types of stories, are literal. And Christians who want to hold on to evolution, and millions of years, try to say it isnt literal but it is. And science proves the timeline of the Bible correct.
Yeah, people often forget that most languages were evolved into today's languages. Bible was written during the era when languages were very basic. Even with today's languages, we can't explain many philosophical and theological points. So just imagine how hard it was back then. So they used the best possible ways to make complected theological and philosophical points.
This was really refreshing I haven't paid the quick enough to my thought it was in the intervals this certification of The Bible but it presented itself in a very thoughtful way.
Believe me, as a Christian I know the bible has extremely weird stories. But in context of the original scripture and the rest of the bible. They make total sense
REzįø It’s a pretty weird story. He killed 1000 soldiers with a donkey jawbone, killed a lion with his bare hands, found a honey comb in its mouth later on, and spontaneously found a spring come out of the ground after almost diving of thirst due to exhaustion (because yknow, killing 1000 Philistines with a donkey jawbone is kind of tiring).
Great video but I'm a little upset they didn't explain why Ehud hid the dagger on his right side. He did so because the tribe he hailed from (Benjamin I think) were known for being left handed so when guards searched him for a weapon they checked his left side and never suspected he'd carry a weapon on his right
That was the best explanation of the bear mauling I've ever heard. I tried to explain something like that and it didn't come out anywhere near that well.
I appreciate the part talking about how people misinterpret it without even cracking open the pages... also people looking at historical things in general through a modern lens..
I really appreciate the way you talked about the Bible, it's stories, and us believers. You didn't make fun or put us down, you told the stories, stated the different ways it's all interpreted by different denominations, and we're incredibly respectful throughout the entire video. Thank you so much for all of that I would love to see more content like this :)
Oh man I love you series on the weird bible stories guys I'm a Christian and I applaud talk about it in an infographic that is both enterertaining and non inflamatory because yes they do have some strange tales in the bible I dont deny it myself 😂 personally the time king soloman suggested cutting a baby in,half to prove who the real mother was always makes me laugh.
Actually, in Genesis 6: it says something along the lines of “There were Nephilim in the land in these days, and also after that” right before the Noah/deluge incident, so it’s not surprising when Moses and Aaron encounter them.
If the Infographics show made more bible stories using their style of animation I would totally watch it. I really enjoy the way they tell the story.

It actually said "from yahweh for you"
Amazing work. Thank you 🙏🏾
Let me tell you this there was this guy he turn him self into pickle funniest thing I ever seen
PICKLE RICK!!!!!!!
Sorry I had to
Great video...Can't wait for more weird stories from other fictional books!
😒
I cant wait till you stand before God's throne and are judged for your lack of faith hahahaha
Noble Polygon so funny😐
"Lord, he surely stinketh."
John 11:19 (if I remember correctly)
Nope, READ the book
Yeah couldn't find
Lord, he rickrolleth
Meh, right chapter, wrong verse. John 11 : 39 (KJV).
I think that the whole bible stinks.
Yeah, when miracles only have "one" witness.
Great video but I'm a little upset they didn't explain why Ehud hid the dagger on his right side. He did so because the tribe he hailed from (Benjamin I think) were known for being left handed so when guards searched him for a weapon they checked his left side and never suspected he'd carry a weapon on his right
I can’t with the dramatic music but love the content
No Ezekiel eye wheel? was sure Ezekiels eye wheels would be in here somewhere
Ezekiel eye wheel???
What are you taking about???
Elijah Fifita Ezekiel had a vision about wheels with eyes carrying God’s throne
@@bignatec1000 chapter? VERSE? Please...

There's a book about it called Ezekiel's Spaceship. It was written by a NASA engineer.
@@spaceman081447 oh...🤣🤣🤣, I was talking about the bible...
It sounds interesting what is it about.
I’m atheist but I think the Bible is pretty interesting. Plus I love the Noah movie
The Noah movie is lousy and could have had a much better plot if it had followed the Bible.
For example Noah’s enemy should have been the nephlim.
bulldogsbob well lots of movies are very different than the book that it’s based on
Jesus Christ is ❤️ 🙂
Who else is a Christian
Ayyyyy
Christian

4:33 "Beamed up to Heaven Star Trek Style" 😂😂😂😂😂
That was the best explanation of the bear mauling I've ever heard. I tried to explain something like that and it didn't come out anywhere near that well.
That moment when there are more Hebrew slaves in one Egyptian town than Egyptians in Egypt at the time and somehow they're still slaves
And the Egyptians (who wrote down everything) doesn't mention these hebrews once
@@beckymcdonald9529 Because when you build something you don't mention who worked in building it🤷 but who it's built for
Just like any other medieval slavery historical events??
@@joyaboya3437 Wrong ❌ The African American slaves weren't typically paid anything ✅
@@MisterTurner-ex1fv no I was replying to Tim tsai
you guys are crazy, uploading 2 videos of this quality and content a day! I do really appreciate the effort you put in this channel.
The second time wasn’t an account of Nephilim..., it said “giants”.
I appreciate the part talking about how people misinterpret it without even cracking open the pages... also people looking at historical things in general through a modern lens..
I really appreciate the way you talked about the Bible, it's stories, and us believers. You didn't make fun or put us down, you told the stories, stated the different ways it's all interpreted by different denominations, and we're incredibly respectful throughout the entire video. Thank you so much for all of that I would love to see more content like this :)
Matt Dillahunty will make fun of you.
It's not weird, its just, some people don't know what message that story says
Bless you
😂😂😂What message was sent by murdering the majority of mankind?
What message is delivered by a stab in the gut?
@@dougroyce5784 C'mon now. No one likes being told their God is a genocidal maniac lol.
5:16 actually he was bald because prophets would shave their head as an atonement for the sins of the people.
One of my favorites;
“Happy is the one who seizes your infants and dashes them against the rocks”
"I have a secret message for you, O king.."
"Steal a ute"...
"after delivering gods stabagram..." im DEAD
I had to go back because I was laughing too much to hear what he said after that.
"ee-LI-shuh"
'God's stab-o-gram'🤣😂
"last we get to Elisha bald head"😂😂😂😂😂 listen to how he pronounced the name 4:53
Isn’t that how elishas name is pronounced??
Thank you for these. I appreciate the better translations.
I thought Elijah was taken up by a chariot of Fire and Elijah gave his wool cloak to Elisha.
That is what happened
Oh man I love you series on the weird bible stories guys I'm a Christian and I applaud talk about it in an infographic that is both enterertaining and non inflamatory because yes they do have some strange tales in the bible I dont deny it myself 😂 personally the time king soloman suggested cutting a baby in,half to prove who the real mother was always makes me laugh.
“Youths:” Mock Elisha
Elisha: Kuchiyose no jutsu
I am a nephelium...heed my words: Stop polluting the air, go green to be clean
Shut up Thunberg!
@@jollygoodyo perfect!
I thought the nephelium were the giant born between the fallen watcher angels and the women of the earth.
It's Nephilim.
Or get mauled by bears.
Actually, in Genesis 6: it says something along the lines of “There were Nephilim in the land in these days, and also after that” right before the Noah/deluge incident, so it’s not surprising when Moses and Aaron encounter them.
Ehud was the og assassin inspired made Assassin's Creed.
I was quite surprised, that this stories were realitivly correct
I am against religion because it teaches us to be satisfied with not understanding the world. - Richard Dawkins
Great quote
Ehud was prolly like "The Israelites always pay their debts"
Great video!
I love your narration on this
