Wholly Buyable
Advertising Creative Director Chas Bayfield takes you on a road trip through the Bible, leaving one significant item of baggage at home- religion. He tells the story from Genesis to Revelation and explains how this more than any other book has impacted western culture. Wholly Buyable is a podcast for people who might never normally pick up a Bible but who feel they should perhaps know a little more about it than they currently do. After all, the Bible is a book for everyone, not just believers. Listeners will be taken through action sequences worthy of a 21st century TV drama. They will be seduced by erotic poetry and bombarded with hallucinatory visions. Fill your boots with betrayal, brutality, beauty and, believe it or not, comedy. This isn’t your average Bible podcast; no one will be told what to believe but everyone who joins in the journey will hopefully feel that they know the world’s best-selling book a little better.
Wholly Buyable
190: Blind Panic (Jeremiah 48-49)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
After more than forty chapters where it is Judah who is in God's crosshairs, it's refreshing to see that a few other Near Eastern Nations will also be on the receiving end of a kicking.
None of these countries exist any more, which is telling, and the language used by the prophet to describe their downfall is dramatic.
They won't be crowing at Judah's downfall for long, Jeremiah promises, they'll be too busy fleeing the ruins of their own shattered countries
