Man, u have a unique, comedic talent for doing these bible stories like no other!
Your videos make my day!
Just wish u could have included the part where Jacob uses visual aides in genetically manipulating the outcome of his sheep's offspring! (Damn, that was a mouthful). In other words, Jacob strips bark off tree branches, puts them in the watering trough & when the sheep see the striped branches, while mating, they give birth to spotted sheep!
And it is just as relevant today as it was when Genesis was written, for Israel still struggles both with God and with men. In this struggle we have the key to human history. But keys are only of value to those who are prepared to make use of them.
The story of Jacob is one of the most intensely personal and intimately human stories in the literature of the ancient world. You neglect to mention the most important part of it, where Jacob encounters a mysterious stranger (Genesis 32:23-33) and struggles with him in the night, so becoming Israel (He who strives with God). This extraordinary passage is full of mystical significance, which will pass over the heads of nearly all those who watch this video.
This is my favorite video of yours so far. Pure brilliance. I've read this story myself, and you are right on the money. This is going in my favorites.
I love your telling of bible stories. You should teach a sunday school class for christian children. LOL I'm trying to think of a classic story that you haven't already done. Did you do the one where lot has sex with his 2 daughters? I can't remember.
I like the stale tale about a whale that Jonah availed to bail on. Or perhaps the male hailed for being nailed to a rail instead of being jailed and whose portrayed as very pale but was probably darker than a snail's tail which makes for a history fail. And this is what Christian's have for sale, but I'd rather buy some ale.
Ironically this version of Jacob is probably closer to the way it was originally told around the campfire, than the way it is told from the pulpit. The Bible can be pretty darn funny at times.
I have to remember that for the next time some holier-than-thou religious whackjob starts whittering on about the sanctity of the sacrament of marriage and how it's supposed to be between ONE man and ONE woman. :P
i don't know why some christians consider marriage to be a union between one man and one women when there is nothing in the bible to suggest that. Actually it was typically one man, and many many women.
Where were these girls when I wanted to get married? My wife would have never let me have sex with her handmaid, if she had one, her parents would never have given her one; you should have seen the cheap ass reception they threw for us! My favorite bit is where Jacob screws over his father-in-law by somehow making all the ewes have striped or speckled lambs, doesn't work; I tried it!
It's funny how you hear our Christian cousins "rabbit" on and on and on and on about a small selection of bible stories, but never about other stories.
Could a new bible mythos be constructed from just the neglected stories?

Maybe the angels' wings were tired from all that flying? I've seen flies climbing walls, and they have wings. ;-)
