Miraculous Cows and Bad Sacrifices (1 Samuel 6) - Faith and Other Oddities Episode 77

In this episode the Philistines send the Ark of the Covenant back to the Israelites. They do it in such a manner as to confirm whether the destruction of their idol for Dagon and the plagues they experienced were, in fact, by the work of YAHWEH, or just miserable coincidences.  You’ll learn that being a cattle rancher helps a lot in understanding this narrative, and that when the Ark is delivered to the Levites and YAHWEH subsequently cleans house, he isn’t playing.
