30:27 – Against the backdrop of rapidly-declining lifespans, the epic soap opera of Abram and his wife Sarai unfolds. After enriching themselves by pimping and hoeing to the rich and famous, they engage a surrogate mother to produce an heir, but that is not what their alien overlords had in mind. What was the nature of the plague visited on Pharaoh’s house due to his dalliance with Sarai? What was behind the Yahweh Elohim’s insistence on circumcision? What was the significance of Hagar the maid’s encounter with El-roi the angel? Listen and learn.

30:30 – What happens the morning after the big barbecue bash Noah threw for the Yahweh Elohim, when he discovers that he has passed out drunk without a stitch of clothes on and become an object of ridicule as a result? Spoiler alert: Family ties are stretched well past the breaking point. Also, what was the Tower of Babel, and what method was used to confuse the language of its builders? Dave in Kentucky has the answers, or thinks he does anyway.

30:35 – In this episode, the Yahweh Elohim decide to destroy mankind – or do they? Noah and his family are spared, plus enough other creatures to repopulate the planet, so what was the point? Noah is grateful, however, so he builds an altar and barbecues some of the surplus clean beasts for them. This becomes a tradition, even after the gods are no longer physically present. But the meat could still be consumed via long distance, as in the contest between Elijah and the Prophets of Baal, with its highly disturbing denouement!

29:30 – Dave in Kentucky concludes the story of Enoch & the Watchers that was begun in the previous episode, and poses the following questions: Are the Nephilim giants, fallen angels, ancient astronauts, or all of the above? Does the term Nephilim apply to the Watchers, their offspring, or both? Are the Watcher and the “holy one” from Nebuchadnezzar’s dream in Daniel 4:13 two distinct beings, or only one? Who are the irin, the malachim, and the cherubim? Tune in for the answers; you just might learn something.

29:30 – Dave in Kentucky expounds and expands upon the first four verses of Genesis 6, when the “sons of God” mated with the “daughters of men” and produced giant offspring. The Ethiopic Book of Enoch (aka First Enoch) provides the full story, which is begun here and will be continued (and possibly concluded) in the next episode.

29:48 – Dave in Kentucky continues his look at Genesis from an “ancient astronauts” perspective, including Chapter 3 (Eve & the Serpent), Chapter 4 (Cain & Abel), and Chapter 5 (the generations preceding Noah), as well as much supplemental material from the non-canonical Book of Jasher.
