Zechariah’s Final Purge: Stabbings, False Prophets, and a Holy Bloodbath
📝 Episode Summary:
Welcome to the most stab-happy, prophet-purging, guilt-soaked chapter yet—Zechariah 13. This episode dives straight into the divine mayhem where God allegedly opens a “fountain of cleansing” but immediately follows it up with a kill order on prophets, false or otherwise. Because nothing says forgiveness like stabbing your own kid for dreaming too loud.
Our hosts break down the bizarre logic of a God who says, “No more prophets, and if your kid has a vision—stab ‘em.” Naturally, we explore the implications of outlawing divine visions while still clinging to a book full of them. Is this theology or just a celestial cancel culture? Plus, we get a good laugh at the idea of parents going full slasher-flick because little Timmy accidentally prophesied in his sleep.
Also featured: awkward God porn metaphors, prophetic shame spirals, a garment of hair (??), and a not-so-fun remnant that gets “refined” via fire because trauma builds character, apparently. If you've ever wondered what would happen if Fox News, a confused medieval prophet, and a sadistic deity walked into a bar—this chapter's your answer.
