probably have the date wrong.

I've read the bible cover-to-cover a couple of times, but I don't remember that passage. Perhaps if people had been allowed to read the damn thing sooner (only priests were allowed to read the bible, which is fucking absurd), they might have learned about sanitation earlier?

Is it possible that that passage was inserted way later by one of the countless translations?

(gotta proofread better)
