Come and study the Holy Scriptures with us as Father Stephen DeYoung teaches verse by verse on the podcast,

The Whole Council of God. Father Stephen holds a Ph.D. in biblical studies, and it's an Orthodox

priest serving at Archangel Gabriel Orthodox Church in Lafayette, Louisiana.

Okay, we'll go ahead and get started.

When we get started, we're going to be picking up at the beginning of Numbers Chapter

18.

So once again tonight, we're not going to have a ton of introduction because once again

tonight, we're shifting gears, right?

One of the reasons we left off where we left off is that we're moving from one type of content

from that the plague the censors all that good stuff and the stuff we're going to talk about

tonight is not unrelated but it's a different

type of, it's a different type of text. So that was narrative. We were reading a series of stories,

and those stories were about due to Cora's rebellion, and I made my usual, Cora is the first

Protestant joke because he says, you know,

are we not all holy?

Why are you trying to make yourself a priest over us?

But it got the same reaction last time, too.
