GBC Podcast 008 | "..shall not put on the weapon of a warrior.." A study of Deuteronomy 22:5 – and beyond

Those who have a different sexual orientation aren’t the only ones who suffer from mistranslations of the so-called “Clobber Passages”. Those with different gender orientations do, as well.

Our podcast today talks about:

  • The 4 general types of people who are affected by how Deuteronomy 22:5 is translated – and how most of them are actually straight.
  • Why even people who have what mainstream culture accepts as a “normal” gender orientation are still affected by mistranslations of Deuteronomy 22:5.
  • Why misunderstanding God’s rules against idolatry continue to mean misunderstanding what God put into the Mosaic Law.
  • Who Deuteronomy 22:5 applied to -- and why
  • What God actually said in Deuteronomy 22:5 – versus what human translators have said He said.
  • More ways human translators insert their own ideas, prejudices, and more into the Bible as if they came right from God.
  • Why taking God at His literal word, in His literal context, as given to the original hearers of Scripture, is the greatest way to prevent theological fraud – and God-rejection.
  • Why people of different gender orientations tend to fall into certain sins – and what the fix really is for that.
  • What God’s real word is for all differently gendered people, even today!
  • and more!
