   Genesis Pastor Andrew takes comments from Mike Huckabee, the US Ambassador to Israel, on Tucker Carlson's show as a jumping off point to spotlight the various levels of either willful blindness or astounding stupidity at work within the fundamentalist community and greater Israel regarding a desire to use a promise in the 15th chapter of Genesis to delineate modern borders.

In this episode, Pastor Andrew—an expert in the ancient Near East—works to clear up the confusion and set the record straight.
