OG OF BASHAN: The Last Rephaim King and the Battle Moses Feared

Moses had faced Pharaoh, survived forty years in the wilderness, stood before the fire of Sinai, and watched Egypt’s armies disappear beneath the Red Sea.Yet before one particular battle, God gave him a direct command:“Do not fear him.”The opponent was Og of Bashan—the last remaining king of the Rephaim, ruler of sixty fortified cities, and the owner of an iron bed measuring approximately thirteen and a half feet long.Why did this enemy require a specific word of reassurance from God?In this episode of Broadcasting Seeds, Bennett Tanton examines Og’s identity, the spiritual significance of Bashan, the territory surrounding Mount Hermon, and the meaning behind the biblical description of Og’s iron bed.This was more than another military campaign east of the Jordan. The battle at Edrei marked the end of a surviving Rephaim ruler and the transfer of spiritually charged territory into the hands of Israel.Topics covered include:• Og’s identity as the last of the Rephaim• The sixty fortified cities of Bashan• Why Moses was told not to fear• The spiritual history surrounding Mount Hermon• Bashan’s connection to the divine assembly• The measurements and purpose of Og’s iron bed• The Emim, Zamzummim, Anakim, and Rephaim• What ended at the Battle of Edrei• How Og’s defeat connects to Goliath and the Philistine giantsThis episode draws from Bennett Tanton’s book:The Second Incursion: Fallen Beings, Giants, and What Walks Among Us StillAvailable at:BennettTantonBooks.com and on Amazon.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-broadcasting-seeds-podcast--6402290/support.Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/BroadcastingSeeds. for Ad-Free audio & video content.Books-BennettTantonBooks.comWhat We Have (Grid Collapse Series Book 1)What We Have (Grid Collapse Series Book 1)The War You Didn’t Know You Were In: Understanding and Winning the Spiritual BattleCREATURES AT THE EDGE: Cryptids, Archetypes, and the Human Encounter with Mystery (At the Edge Series)The Last Witch Hunter’s Journal WebsiteYouTube
