After the Exodus, Og, the king of Bashan, who is described as the last of the Rephaim in Scripture.
And who exactly the Rephaim were, we sort of weren't sure.
The word pops up a few places, other places in the Old Testament.
In Isaiah, the text that's traditionally understood to talk about the fall of the devil is
heaven talks about as he's thrown down into the underworld the rephaim rising up to meet him uh so there are these few places there's uh psalm uh 88 talks about uh will the rephaim arise and praise you when it's talking about in the underworld talking about would they praise god the answer being assumed no um but we now know exactly who they were because uh
In the mid-20th century, we discovered the city of Ugarit, which had been destroyed at the Bronze Age collapse around 1200 BC and lost.
Nobody knew it was there.
Nobody knew it existed.
It was discovered, and we discovered a library of texts there in a language that we now call Ugaritic after the city.
Where is it?
Pardon my English.
Turkey?
It's in Western Syria.
Okay.
Just above Lebanon.
just north of Lebanon, and Rosh Shamra is what it's called now.
And we found this library of texts.
Ugaritic is a Semitic language, so it's like Hebrew or Aramaic in terms of the vocabulary and the grammar, but it's written in cuneiform on tablets.
And so those tablets survived because those clay tablets are very difficult to break even if you try.
Yeah.
