The Valley by The Oh Hellos: A Biblical Song Analysis
*Full analysis under the cut*
By @glass-strawberries and @glass--grapes
Author's note: we grew up Christian and we love whimsical music so hearing all these references from our childhood hit pretty well. We wanted to analyze it and share all the references because The Oh Hellos are honestly some of the best lyricists we’ve seen.
This analysis does contain references to Genius Lyrics where we didn’t know what the lyrics were referring to. We didn’t copy them, but we added additional information.
The Valley
Background/song summary: The Valley is the first track in The Oh Hellos Through the Deep, Dark Valley. Though the album is coined as a concept album, the concept itself is very loose. The album was made in respect to love, journeys, and righting past wrongs.
This song is about the struggle and confusion of being born into wickedness or sin, as all humans are following the fall of humanity (the original sin). The speaker seeks a leader to the light.
Lyric Analysis:
We were born in the valley Of the dead and the wicked
A reference to the Valley of Canaan, the ancient land that is now known as Israel/ Palestine.
That our father's father found And where we laid him down
Moses led the Israelites to the land of Canaan as they were fleeing Egyptian captivity. Before Moses could get there, he essentially pissed off God and was banished from entering the promised land. He dies in Moab and God buries him there(Deuteronomy 34).
We were born in the shadow Of the crimes of our fathers
After the fall of humanity, every human ever born is born with sin. The “fathers” in this sense is everyone who came before them(Romans 3:23-24). The speaker struggles with discrimination and labels placed on them from their fathers.
Blood was our inheritance No, we did not ask for this Will you lead me?
Canaanites were considered wicked, and were killed in a genocide against them. The speaker resents the sin that they have inherited, having been credited to this crime against the Canaanites. They once again yearn for a leader.
We were young when we heard you call Our names in the silence Like a fire in the dark
The speaker did not know God until they started to hope for a leader or divine intervention. God says that He will reveal Himself to those who truly seek him(1 John 3:2). The Bible states that when God calls out to you, He will call you by name and you will know immediately that it was Him that was speaking (Isaiah 43:1).
Like a sword upon our hearts We came down to the water And we begged for forgiveness
Water baptism is a symbolic representation of death in the flesh and being brought back to life in a new “body” that will “live” forever. The purpose of baptism is defined differently in different branches of Christianity and even among churches, but the two popular ones are:
To proclaim your faith publicly(either way, you are saved as long as you have faith)
To become a true christian and be saved(you will not be saved unless you are baptized)
The singer chose to repent for their sins. Shadows lurking close behind We were fleeing for our lives Will you lead me?
Psalm 23:3- He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

johto’s champion and chronicler for the deity of the ilex shrine, it’s lyra!🌿
this one took me a while due to trying out different techniques (studying a Lot of art nouveau) and making a couple changes to her outfit (the details help), but I’d like to think she’s learned a lot in her journey and wanted to reflect her experience more in her champion fit
her specialty would be in fairy types and her meganium’s divergent evolution is grass/fairy 🧚🪷
and a bonus w/ the johto gang after the photoshoot!
#kagarts#trainer lyra#meganium#pokemon hgss#get ready for a bigass tag wall again HYAH#her team picks are meganium (grass/fairy + shiny!) azumarill togekiss alola ninetales gardevoir and clefable (mega evolves for fairy/steel)#terrains and high sp atk + statuses galore + her dino can cause a stronger confusion (like toxic w badly poisoned but its w/ Bad headaches)#i'll probably make changes as i go design wise for meganium but colors were inspo from sampaguita flowers#the flower's associated with true friendship and utilized in medicines or given as good gestures in various traditions and celebrations#and also bc she's 🇵🇭 babey!!!!!!!! i'm slapping all my favs w the pinoy beam and not even the dinos are safe >:]#since her dino is shiny a lot of the colors are just a few color diffs where the little orbs are + warmer tones. gotta make a ref sometime#not sure if I should tag the others bc the focus is on her. but the quartet always pulls thru for each other#i like thinking silver gets comfortable enough to be the friend that's “s'cuse you my Friend asked for No pickles”#silver in line picking up her food like “yeah yeah i know her and btw that’s CHAMPION lyra to you. YES she ordered a strawberry shake”#both of their meganiums are Best friends and silver likely uses his dino when you rematch him (and his would beee grass/dragon)#calling this piece Done though oh my god this semester has been nuts. don't wanna take any longer on a single piece or i'm eating tree bark#tumblr's gonna kill the quality on it but idgaf im Done. i need to tidy up my sheezy now

Uzhik – little snake in a garden, 256 colors!
Uzhik. It is a game about a little grass snake. I pay more attention to the graphics. To Different colors. So, also, idea, is that lots of time go to select colors, certain colors. This time game is making in screen 13 mode with 256 colors. Big selection!
So, in game you will play as a little snake. Like a grass snake. It is green. And it is good and kind and funny. He smiles. Snake will crawl and eat strawberry. Strawberry – they are such balls. And it is all you need to get to next level.

I decided to try and design a fakemon during a family holiday reunion to keep me distracted from the fireworks sounds and crying children! This is my actual first fakemon! Idk how hoomans can come up with incredible concepts and beautiful designs so flawlessly! Mine is more of an attempt, a fun one nonetheless.
Harbeary comes from the word Harvest and the bearry pun (bear + berry). They enjoy basking in the light, taking care of their crops until they are ready to reap and consume. Sometimes, they'll do competitions against each other to see who grows the biggest fruit.

Y’all I’m growing strawberries I’m trying very hard not to kill like my cat grass (to be fair cat grass is a very boring thing to keep alive) it’s going into strawberry season where I live and one of them already has a flower I’m very excited. Also one of them (I have two) is this type that apparently makes heart shaped strawberries how cute is that now I just need a boyfriend to give my cute heart shaped strawberries too.
Also my little garden gnome is in on if them
#my wittle strawberries#I love them#they are my sons#strawberries#someone teach my how to keep plants alive pls#I don’t want my sons to die like the cat grass
