Summary

Author and filmmaker Brian Godawa makes his return to the show to talk about his new book and the world of ancient Egypt. Brian takes into the life of Moses, the Exodus, and the dynastic Egyptian culture that provided the backdrop for this epic. How was Moses directly influenced by the Egyptians? What supernatural and creature encounters do we find in the story of Moses and the Exodus? We take an unconventional journey into a familiar story with context from ancient historians, extra-biblical texts, with an emphasis on how the gods of Egypt and the God of Abraham did battle over the people of Israel.

0:00.0	We're not done yet. The Greek historian Herodotus, who's a famous Greek historian,
0:06.3	writes of sacred winged serpents in his histories. He writes,
0:10.4	there's a place in Arabia not far from the Patan of Bouteau where I learned about winged serpents.
0:16.1	When I arrived there I saw innumerable bones and backbones of serpents. This place adjoins the
0:20.5	plane of Egypt. Winged serpents are said to fly from Arabia at the beginning of spring,
0:26.0	making for Egypt. The serpents are like water snakes. Their wings are not feathered,
0:30.8	but like the wings of a bat. Welcome back to Blurry Creatures. Thanks guys for tuning in and
0:59.1	subscribing and sharing the show with your friends. Luke and I are looking at each other on a
1:04.4	Zoom call. Yeah we are Nathan. And we really need to be together in one room podcasting.
1:11.2	We do. He's just so close yet so far away my friend. Tell them how they can make it happen.
1:16.2	Luke. Well, you get in your car, you drive about 45 minutes north or south depending on which way
1:21.2	he wants to house you want to come to and you too. That's right. That's right. You too can be in
1:26.4	middle to see. That's right. Hope you had a good holiday season. We had our Christmas show with
1:32.9	Judd. Hope you like that one. And today we have Brian Gadabah on the show who's written a ton of
1:38.1	books and brings more that fantasy element to the Nephilim story. He kind of writes novels with
1:45.0	historical characters and weaves the Bible in and out of his stuff. But we're going to learn
1:50.8	some things about the blurry world that we often talk about. You know, the creators of these
1:56.8	these Nephilim creatures and the giants and the pyramids and all the stuff we talk about with
2:00.4	guys like Derek and Jed. I love going back and unpacking familiar stories in the context of what
2:06.4	we know now. The context of Genesis 6 and the context of the mega-lythic stuff we know and also
2:12.4	in the Deuteronomy 32, Psalm 82, Heiser, Divine Council. I think Brian's going to put a really
2:19.1	cool spin on stories that we are most of us should be very familiar with and like everything it's
