    The Myths Behind the Miracles

    Welcome to today's episode of Exodus Brothers. Join Micah Knapp and Jake Knapp as they delve into the intriguing world of biblical interpretation. In this episode, we explore the significance of understanding the Bible beyond its literal narrative, diving into the necessity of considering its historical and cultural context. The discussion highlights several contradictions within the biblical stories, including the creation account in Genesis and the tale of Adam and Eve, emphasizing the challenges of interpreting these texts literally. By examining the symbolic and allegorical aspects of ancient storytelling, the Knapp brothers aim to provide rational explanations that align with modern scientific understanding. Furthermore, this episode addresses ancient mythologies and their influence on biblical narratives, showing the cultural exchanges evident in scriptures. The Knapp brothers analyze known myths and moral codes from cultures like Mesopotamia and their presence in biblical accounts, shedding light on the universal ideas threaded through these ancient stories. Tune in as the brothers unravel the complexities of myth-making, revealing how these stories were designed to teach values, entertain, and unite communities—rather than serve as strict historical records. Along the way, they expose problematic passages where the Bible gets morality, history, and science wrong, challenging traditional interpretations and encouraging listeners to think critically about its narratives.Theme music: Jenni Potts
