Podcast: Play in new window | Download
28:12 – After helping the Israelites conquer the Midianites, the Yahwelians received tribute which included thirty-two Midianite virgins, without blemish. Why? Strange. Hey, why do you think they call it booty? And it’s not like they hadn’t mated with earth women before, notably in Genesis 6. Also: cultural destruction and ethnic cleansing of the Canaanite peoples, the laying out of the borders of Israel, and a recap of the main events of the Exodus.
