Husband and Wife cover Exodus chapter 15: The Song of Moses / The Bitter Water at Marah: and chapter 16: God Gives Manna. We sing very, very badly but it's not entirely our fault because the lyrics aren't great and the song lacks a chorus. We learn a recipe for magical food that doesn't exist except maybe in an underground government warehouse, the opening of which will probably melt off your face.Join us on DISCORD: https://discord.gg/8RwwMrb5zKThank you for stopping by Sacrilegious Discourse - Bible Study for Atheists!Check out these links for more information about our podcast and merchandise:Our Homepage: https://sacrilegiousdiscourse.com/Help support us by subscribing on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/sacrilegiousdiscourse

God tells them that they are his chosen people and that he will make them a great nation. He also gives them a set of laws, known as the Ten Commandments, which they must obey.Exodus 20: The Ten Commandments are repeated in more detail. They include prohibitions against worshiping other gods, making idols, taking the Lord's name in vain, working on the Sabbath, honoring one's parents, killing, committing adultery, stealing, bearing false witness, and coveting.From an atheist perspective, these chapters are simply a record of ancient religious beliefs. There is no evidence to suggest that God actually spoke to the Israelites or gave them the Ten Commandments. The stories in these chapters are likely based on oral traditions that were passed down over many generations.The Ten Commandments are a set of moral principles that have been influential in many cultures. However, there is no reason to believe that they are divinely inspired. They are simply the product of human thought and experience.In conclusion, Exodus chapters 19 and 20 are a fascinating glimpse into the religious beliefs of ancient Israel. However, there is no reason to believe that they are anything more than that.
