276. The Biblical Zombie Apocalypse

from Bros Bibles & Beer · host Andy McCraw, Zack Krater, Colin Ferris

We dive into one of the strangest and most cinematic passages in the entire New Testament: the "resurrection of the saints" in Jerusalem following Jesus crucifixion. Was it a literal historical event, a metaphorical callback to Ezekiel, or something else entirely? The boys play a high-stakes round of "Zombie or Zom-bae," testing their Bible trivia on everything from Lazarus’s "smell factor" to Elisha’s miracle bones. Bros, Bibles and Beer is officially rebranding soon. We discuss the heart behind our new name—We Should Know Better—and share some heavy news regarding the closure of our church home. 00:00 - Intro: Trump Bobbleheads & Hop Secret Beer 02:34 - New Game: Zombie or Zombie! 04:00 - The 48-Hour Resurrection Delay (Matthew 27) 06:10 - Lazarus & the 4-Day Cultural Proof 07:55 - Elisha’s Miracle Bones vs. Gary 10:00 - Tabitha’s Portfolio & Brisket Recipes 11:55 - Andy’s Carpool Lane Confession 15:00 - The Theology of "Celestial Zombies" 21:20 - Midrash: Was it a Literal Zombie Army? 27:00 - The "Revealed" Veil: A New Perspective on Access 31:00 - Oral Tradition: 9/11 and the Megaphone Theory 43:00 - Is the Bible "Perfect"?
