Previously on Thomas in the Bible, the Israelites refused to be good, insisting on doing bad in the eyes of God.

Jeremiah wants every one of them and their sons to die.

Even though we determined that the reason they were rebellious was that no one like Jeremiah and would rather worship gods they just made up there and then.

The Thomas Yon count of two, a sneeze count of one, and a sing count of one.

I don't know how many episodes until the New Testament, but it's not too many now.

Thank you, Harley, for that intro. Great to hear from you again. I will tell you, I did the calculation,

and we will begin the New Testament in the latter half of episode 197. Today is episode 161.

So I'm going to put that at a count of 36. So including this episode, it's 36. So, and which makes sense because we're at the beginning of the episode. So, I mean, you got to get

And the together, they're 26% of the Bible. It's just, it's so weird. I mean, that's a big chunk

that's not that, you know, 74%. That's a lot. It's a lot, definitely. It's a lot to ignore. There's nothing,
