You shall not bow down to them or worship them, for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God. Exodus 20:17 -- “You shall not covet your neighbor's house. You shall not covet your neighbor's wife, or his male or female servant, his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor.” Proverbs 14:30: “A tranquil heart gives life to the flesh, but envy makes the bones rot.” Proverbs 23:17: “Do not let your heart envy sinners, but always be zealous for the fear of the LORD.” Mark 7:21-23: For it is from within, out of a person's heart, that evil thought come—sexual immorality, theft, murder, 22adultery, greed, malice, deceit, lewdness, envy, slander, arrogance, and folly. 23 All these evils come from inside and defile a person.” Romans 12:15: Rejoice with those who rejoice, weep with those who weep.” 2 Corinthians 11:21: “I am jealous for you with a godly jealousy.” Galatians 5:19-21: “The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity, and debauchery; idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions, and envy …” Philippians 4:11-13: I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. I know what it is to be in need and what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well-fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do all this through him, who gives me strength. James 3:16: “For where envy and selfish ambition exist, there will be disorder and every vile practice.” Hebrews 13:5: “Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, 'Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.'”
Dr. Robyn Faith Walsh is an Associate Professor of Religious Studies at the University of Miami, who takes an unconventional approach to studying the origin of Christianity. What if, she asks, instead of using one dictionary for biblical texts, and a different one for all other contemporaneous Greek literature, we read the gospels as if they were the same as any other classical text? It turns out that this small shift in semantic content reveals a lot about the people who wrote the bible, the reasons for Christianity's massive rise to popularity, and the entrenchment of the traditions that warped the weft of the spiritual teachings originally contained within these ancient books.

Who were the Essenes?As a matter of fact, who were the Pharisees and Sadducees, or the Zealots? The life and ministry of Christ saw Him cross paths with several different groups, but have you stopped to consider who they were? Jerell helps shed some light on these groups, what their motives were, and offer us insight into the conflicts that Jesus had with them.
This episode looks at the religious history and context of the ongoing conflict in Israel/Palestine. With the recent attacks by Hamas on 7 October, we take a look at why this small piece of land on the Eastern Mediterranean is so religiously significant and why it continues to be so hotly contested. We look at the origins of the Abrahamic faiths and their associations with the land of Israel/Palestine and how the Zionist movement was imbued with religious significance from the very beginning.

What better way to celebrate the New Year than with a new episode of History is Gay? This time, Gretchen and Leigh dive into the brief, controversial, and totally extra reign of Emperor Elagabalus of Rome. Or rather, Empress Elagabalus! Whether it be marrying multiple wives and one husband, revolutionizing the Roman religion, installing women as senators, throwing parties with sex workers, or enjoying the attention of well-endowed men, Elagabalus was as unconventional as they come. And chances are, she may very well have been a trans woman.

In this episode, Gretchen and Leigh talk about Frida Kahlo, a Mexican artist best known for her many self-portraits and for works inspired by nature and the culture and artifacts of Mexico. She may be known for her unibrow, but that’s far from the most important aspect of her art or her story or her art. In keeping with her self-exploration of identity in her paintings, we’re going to explore one of the things least well known about her: that she had relationships with men and women! That’s right, this famous postcolonial, multiracial, disabled artist was bisexual!

The context of the play explained.
This is the first episode in my “Buddhist History and Seminal Texts” series. I discuss the historical and religious context for the beginnings of Buddhism in India in the 500s BCE. I give you a brief overview of the history of civilization in India, and a sense of the dominant religious traditions of northern India from around 2000 BCE through the time of the Buddha. Then I describe the period of social and economic changes starting around 800 BCE that apparently paved the way for new schools of religious thought and practice, including Buddhism.
