Devil Went Down to Edom | The Weird Bible Podcast: Episode 5 

Isaiah is the most knowledgeable Christian I know. He’s inspired me to read the Bible and to learn about the history of the early church

Ngl Aiden rambling about history is the absolute perfect background noise to do some deep thinking about other things 🤣

Do an episode where you rip on internet witchcraft

Listening to this again while I’m working and heard my name for my superchat and shat myself

That one line from Aidan made me tear up🥲. I had never thought of it that way.

This video helped restore some of my faith in Christ. I'm still thinking about if or when to fully return, but I left ever since my grandfather died, but to think it was "God calling him home"... I remember that I was told by the parents of a friend of mine that they were uncertain that he would go to Heaven because he was a Protestant instead of a Catholic, and that's what turned me away. I was upset at them, because I was thinking "How could God turn him away because of a few differences in worship?" I was also upset at God, for he took my grandfather away just when he was starting to seem like he was feeling better, but this helped me understand a little better. Like I said, I'm not sure if I will come back to the fold fully, but this video helped quite a bit.

At 2:06:50 “are you good to go a bit longer?” Video ends at 3 hours and 50 minutes 😂

I love recommending this to people. I also love that you guys tackle science and religion. Makes me feel so less conflicted with my beliefs

2:32:26 questioning your faith kinda shows how strong it actually is. How could you know you are truly faithful if you never questioned it?

Isaiah has a similar attitude about Job that I have about Abraham's sacrifice of Issac. I was an atheist with a mild interest in theology and history before, but when I truly came to understand the depth of devotion and harrowing sorrow in which Abraham was in on the mountain, I became a believer. I doubt others would come to the understanding I did, yet it made the entire purpose of Christ's sacrifice so clear to me. If there is any path to salvation for the cynical atheist I used to be was to truly understand the meaning of sacrifice first and everything else erupts from that understanding.

I'm so glad this video exists. I had read job recently and struggled with it, and this really helped me come to a level of understanding i couldn't accomplish on my own. This is another shining example of how God works through us.

I really struggled with my faith the first time I read the Moses story. No one could give me an answer. Thank you.

It's always nice to see people tackle the harder topics in the Bible. It seems a lot of people outside christian circles think Christians are too naive or stupid to think of these things... Really, we usually ARE thinking about it, we just might not be certain about the answers or not feel confident enough in our answers to share them unprompted.

25:46 "and the LORD said unto satan 'aight. Bet.'..."

One of my favorite channels. Love God, and the conversation around him. May God bless our enemies, our allies, and people we don’t think to pray for. Amen. ❤

I was told 7 was seen as the ideal number is sons back then, I think it's just a cherry on top of the blessings of Job's life and character. Ruth 4:15 "for your daughter-in-law, who loves you, who is better to you than seven sons..."

Job is the only thing that keeps my faith in God. It shows how I am not a perfect man In his eyes despite trying my best for earthy things. And when I curse him all I do is hurt myself further.

You guys are quite literally doing God's work, please never ever stop.❤

As a canadian with no guns, ur guns are pretty neat

The book of Job is by far my favorite in the Bible so I don’t say this to handwave away all the great writings in it, but I do believe that it is not based on true events. That being said, people will still read great fiction like 1984, To Kill a Mocking Bird, etc and teach entire lectures on it, yet the second a single part of the Bible is a metaphor or not a true event it gets thrown out the window and laughed at. The messages that this story conveys are so deep and profound it is truly life changing. Some of the discourse between Job and his friends could be discussed in entire series of philosophical writings. To cap it all off, people often call Job’s wife and friends bad people, but they are supposed to represent how normal people would react in this situation. It is a layer of deep irony that when looking in a mirror we hate what we see. Such a wonderful and spiritual book and I’m excited to hear your guys’ thoughts!

I'm so glad you guys make this show!!! While listening and reflecting on my own individual struggles I've gone through I'm so glad to be able to look back and seeing how it helped me get to where I am today.

This is literally the most underwatched content on RU-vid

You boys are helping me become more invested in the Bible and my faith. Keep it up!

I saw the title of the video and thought it said "The Devil went down on Edom". Also, great stream you guys 👍

I have struggled with my faith and anxiety, but this episode really helped me. Especially since my grandma passed in 2022. But what Aiden said at 1:22:29 helped so much. Thank you guys for what you do!

Praise to the most high❤🎉 Thanks brothers for the Bible study. Always welcome.

1:58:00 this made me want to comment just to mention i originally started watching both of your channels for the mysterious missing persons cases but i stayed for the weird bible cast, i love these discussions and they've help to solidify me in my faith

All of those Relient K songs Aiden mentioned are my personal anthems. I’ll throw another one in there as well: Apathetic.

Thank you both for sharing. I am new-ish to these podcasts and am very much enjoying them. I Love history and thoroughly enjoy your passionate and so well articulated and researched shows. Its so awesome to hear your knowledge and Christian perspective and testimonies. May God Bless You & Yours & Walk With you all Always. 👍👍

Really enjoying these weird bible episodes. Thank you guys for doing them and i hope for many more

This podcast has replaced the music I'd normally listen to during my commute

Here we gooooo!!!

I found and really enjoyed both Wendigoon and Lore Lodge separately, and this podcast has been incredible. Absolutely love it you two, thank you for the thought provoking content

One of my favorite podcasts!

My new favorite podcast hope you continue and increase frequency lol im quickly catching up

Just here to say I love the work yall do & to please the algorithm gods.

God giving Satan free reign to mess with Job is like that scene in Troy when the Greek king calls up Achilles.

This is my favorite episode

These have been great to listen to while grinding dungeons in FF14

Lmaooo smoking 10 joints and going down a RU-vid rabbit hole is how I found the lorelodge and wendigoons channels 🤣🤣🤣

"You had every qualification for a job and still didn't get it. What are you gonna do now? Are you gonna curse God or you gonna keep trying? Are you going to, like, strengthen your faith and push on?" If I had a dollar for every inspirational quote I got from this podcast.

Best Bible podcast in the known world.

Love this

What a powerful episode…. Both of these men are just wise beyond their years, but Wendi… there is just something about this guy. He really showed his soul in this episode. Strengthens my faith. Gods goodness beams through him at such a level it makes me emotional.

35:37 Where can I find this post and read this? “…we are not ready” This sort of thing fascinates me.

This show is badass

Wow, I loved this

Just to speak on one of those "Gotcha!" things, the dietary rules are something we now know a lot of the possible reasons why God said people should not eat shellfish or pork, so we can now make our own judgment based on what we know now because of science.

Another comment and like for the RU-vid algorithm. Keep it up guys!

I love these so much, and I'm not even Christian

These conversations are really helping me see the rationale and belief system of Christianity because nothing really made sense to me growing up and my family likes to think of god as “the big man in the sky”. I consider myself agnostic these days, but I always love hearing the ideology of Christ because it helps me better understand those around me. My first job was at a rehab clinic and the 12 steps is pretty much entirely based around God and how through grace and forgiveness you can heal, and even though I listened and went to meetings with patients, I could never truly understand that point of view. I hope that gaining a more philosophical sense of the Bible can give me the confidence to use scripture as a positive tool while talking with those struggling and battling their own demons. This passage of job is really clicking with me, because I’ve seen people at their lowest and heard about the trauma that they’ve been through, but have never really been able to give them a sense of security that “god sees you and he knows you and he will help you” but ANYWAY, I cannot express to you guys how much your conversations have guided me more than anyone else in my 26 years of living (be that my own unwillingness to learn or not 😮‍💨) but thanks for showing us how one can use the Bible through tough times 💗💗💗

1:09:30 This hits hard, another great Isaiah quote, saving this for later

Job is one of my favorite books for 38:4 alone. Edit: I’m wearing a Junji Ito shirt listening to this. I don’t believe in coincidences lol.

Good episode

To Hell With The Devil by Stryper is my personal christian song recomendation.

I've always looked at time like the Time loom in Loki, God sees all the twisting and winding branches, but as we make our choices we solidify the timeline one solid line

You guys are a breath of fresh air, a few years ago I was basically soaking in a lot of “Christian” RU-vid content and I started following the “armored skeptic” because he was presenting topics in a way I haven’t heard before, so I started watching him regularly. And long story short he said Jesus was Pisces and god was evil and Satan was god and he was playing a long troll on Christian’s trying to pull the rug out from under peoples faith in god

It’s kinda sad to go back to this episode after watching some recent stuff. Wendigoon seems so burnt out recently. I don’t think it’s intentional, and I don’t blame him, but I hope he gets some rest or whatever he needs soon. He seemed so upbeat here.

Based & also my favorite book in the bible from when I was a child up till now will always be Job

Great stuff

Commenting and liking for Algor

Lore lodge officially subscribed. Your a badass

Show up for the boys, stay for the Gosh.

Really enjoy your discussions just found lore lodge yesterday (Killdozer video was really well done) and was surprised to realize the guy I found talking about Blood Meridian a few weeks ago was his cohost. That being said I would air a word of caution telling Mormons that they're going to heaven because "they're trying to be a good person" is a good interpretation of the Bible. We need one thing to go to heaven and that is the perfect sacrifice of Christ on our behalf to wash away our sins. Salvation is Christ plus nothing. We cannot add one iota to our salvation and if we're depending on being a good person we're doomed before we start.

Peace be with you

We may not have prophets, but I do believe god speaks to us in dreams and through others. He gives us knowledge whether or not we need to do anything with it. Sometimes it’s getting us prepared for things like death. Things that we naturally don’t understand and are upsetting because of the finality. It’s just a way to help us in this human form. I remember having more than one dream of sitting in my grandparent’s living room and just talking to them. This is after they both passed within a year of each other. I had a longing to be around them since it had been years. Do that was a nice way of maybe saying goodbye in a way that I didn’t feel like I could before.

500 were saved after the outpouring in the upper room in acts 2. I think we’re looking at closer to a thousand by the time we reach chapter 6.

Isaiah 45:7 7 I form the light and create darkness, I bring prosperity and create disaster; I, the LORD, do all these things.

2:05:19 i currently live in an area that is of religion based on anger and everyone is sinful and basically hardly no salvation for them. I have been impressed on their hate.

What is the verse they cite when mentioning how the bible says any institution of man will turn to corruption? I can't find it.

Haven't listened to this pod in over a year. Picked this episode out of nowhere. Then you guys both mentioned having to move forward after breakups I've never been religious, but that seems a bit more than coincidence

Let’s get him there!

I hate that this podcast isn't on Spotify

I'm a little late with this but anyone who wants to check out the Dantes Inferno game, its absolutely worth it !!!! I mean its a God of war 3 clone in regards to the basic controls and combat system BUT it's pretty good nonetheless. Combat is fun and engaging, and there's an attack that is literally just spamming the cross. You can stun and destroy demons with the power of God

Something really important to keep in mind of the book of Job is that it isn't considered nonfiction in Judaism. In my English Jewish Study Bible (because I don't understand Hebrew), the Editors state that Job is a parable from the time of Jews living in Persia. This is most likely why Satan is personified the way they are, because (according to the JSB) Satan as a character (rather than more of a malevolent force inside of humanity) didn't really become prevalent until the Jews of Persia.

When it comes to agnostic or non Christian’s getting into heaven I personally believe god judges then based on how they lived and treated others rather than what they believed in. With so many religions in the world it would take an evil god to condemn them for following the wrong one. I personally believe god is more lenient than we give them credit for. If you’re a genuinely good person who tried their best, I believe there’s a spot in heaven waiting for you.

That joke in the beginning about the giants overthrowing the gov😂 the gov is actually being led and influenced by the watchers of old 😊

Where’s my cosmic Bible horrors video.

35:34 …but I mean, that’s kind of a good friend though, an insane friend, but a loyal one.

God allowed the devil to do what he did because the devil tried to call him out in front of the angels in an effort to sway more to rebel and join him. It was nothing more than a way to call satans bluff

That donkey story makes me think of a meat canyon video, I can his deep voice as the donkey.

Clarification on Ananias and Sapphira, *they weren't obligated to give anything.* The issue wasn't the amount of money, or the % cut they were giving (directly), it was that they lied. They could've sold half the field and given 100% of the money, they could've sold the whole field and just said "we kept half, here's the other," they had so many options that didn't involve sin, but instead they lied.

2:09:12 Peter to ananias "Omae wa mou shindeiru."

Leviticus and Job were the two books I started with and Wendigoon said those were the only two he would recommend against starting with

Sounds like my british lit teacher is high school, we read the illiad, la morte de arthur, the bagadvaghita(hindu text), and mythologies around the world. Teacher was whole grain and nuts.

Bring back the podcast with wendigoon! It’s been to long:(

Ty

Underoath is a screamo metal Christian brand, and their music is fantastic if that's your style

Nice

I always felt bad for Jobs family.

1:59:01 very much made me smile :)

Job is the guy

I’m surprised wendigoon didn’t already know about the ethiopean coptic and orthodox churches

I was raised catholic, I was taught that children who die at a very young age go straight to heaven because they are still too young to understand right from wrong, they are purely innocent

Heck yeah

Werent the babylonions known for counting by sevens? Makes sense if it was frist recorded written there.

W vid

I hate that I disagree with them at all on their points about testimony because I can tell they’re so correct on them but there’s also so much I just wanna talk to them about with times where cutting those friends off is the Christian thing to do and when those discussions with people who hate Christianity are just not worth having but isiah is so well spoken and correct about so much I’m angry at myself for wanting to disagree with him about the parts of it I think he’s for lack of a better term naive about. But he’s so knowledgeable and so well spoken about it

For the smoking segment I always look back to treating your body like a temple, could be food, substance, thoughts, and whatever is hurting that temple focus towards God should be removed. Hopefully this helps.
