Why does the Bible forbid mixing fabrics? Why were shellfish off-limits? And what do these unusual laws say about God's relationship with humanity?

In this eye-opening episode, we dive deep into some of the most perplexing and seemingly strange laws found in the Bible—commands that range from dietary restrictions to ritual purity, and everything in between. We explore what these laws meant in their ancient context, and whether they were moral guidelines, symbolic boundaries, or divine tests of obedience.

Then, we turn to one of the most dramatic stories in Scripture: the tale of Noah and the flood. According to the Bible, God looked upon the earth and saw that it was filled with violence and corruption. Humanity had strayed far from His ways, and the flood was a divine reset—an act of judgment and mercy all at once. But why destroy nearly everything? What made Noah "righteous in his generation"? And what does this story reveal about God's justice and expectations?

Join us as we unravel the mysteries of divine law, examine the reasons behind God’s flood decision, and ask: what does it mean to live in line with a divine will that sometimes defies human logic?
