Hegseth Quotes Pulp Fiction Bible Verse in Pentagon Sermon
During a Pentagon worship service, Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth delivered a prayer that contained lines from the film *Pulp Fiction*, falsely attributed to the Bible. Hegseth claimed the prayer was given to him by a mission planner involved in the rescue of downed Air Force crew. The prayer’s wording, including “strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger,” closely mirrors a speech delivered by Jules Winnfield in *Pulp Fiction*, which itself misquoted Ezekiel 25:17. This incident occurred as Hegseth faces impeachment proceedings from House Democrats on charges including war crimes and abuse of power.
