In the Psycheverse
Psyche examines eunuchs primarily through the lens of Jezebel's biblical army, treating them as a concrete historical detail that complicates how religious texts are understood and misused. The discussion connects eunuch armies to broader patterns of how biblical women—especially powerful or sexually autonomous figures—have been recontextualized and weaponized by modern preachers as cautionary tales or spiritual threats, revealing the gap between ancient political reality and contemporary religious doctrine.
