About

Bible Curious is an exploration into sacred scripture, driven by curiosity. The population of planet Earth is 33% Christian. It's 24% Muslim, and the Qur'an does acknowledge the Bible as Holy Scripture. Between these two faiths, that's over half of Earth's population. If I was an alien coming to this planet for the first time, and I wanted to play a game of “Take Me To Your Leader,” it wouldn't take long before I found this book in my hands. If I want to understand this planet, planet Earth, I need to know what's in this text. To ignore it, or to dismiss it casually, is to cast aside the very underpinnings of western civilization, which is the dominant culture of this planet. I mean, aren't you at least curious about what it actually says? I know I am.

The Second Coming

DAY 10 (Matt 23-24): While teaching publicly in the Jerusalem Temple, Jesus delivers a series of stern warnings to the keepers of Jewish law: two groups known as "scribes", those who wrote and copied scrolls, and "Pharisees", a sect of Jewish teachers who emerged as a result of the Babylonian exile which happened in the 6th century BC. Jesus then utters a prophecy predicting the destruction of Jerusalem and its Temple. This prophecy would be fulfilled forty years later in the year 70 AD.
