None Of These Words Are In The Bible

About

None Of These Words Are In The Bible, also written as None Of Those Words Were In The Bible, refers to a catchphrase used on Twitter and Tumblr that labels instances of slang overload, highlighting their modern nature and reiterating that none of the words used would be in the Bible. Although the phrase has been used as a rebuttal to religious arguments as early as 2010, it wasn't used in abundance within memes until mid-2021.

Origin

As early as 2010, the phrase was already being used on Twitter. The earliest tweet with the phrase was posted on December 31st, 2010, by Twitter^[1] user clcdrums (shown below). However, the tweet received no likes.

Although the above tweet is its first known use online, the phrase became best known as a humourous reply beneath tweets that included too many complicated words or slang terms. The first user to use the phrase in this context was Twitter^[2] user theeclarkjones on July 2nd, 2020. His reply (shown below) received 13 likes over two years.

Spread

On August 20th, 2020, Twitter^[3] user 17aether used the phrase in a reply to a tweet about Ben Shapiro, earning six likes over two years (shown below).

The phrase remained largely dormant going into the rest of 2020, only seeing minor usage. It saw a resurgence in May 2021 after a viral quote tweet was posted on May 17th by Twitter^[4] user ackarori. The quote tweet (shown below) received roughly 5,000 likes over the course of eight months.

On August 2nd, 2021, a tweet screenshot was shared to Instagram^[5] for the first time, receiving six likes. On August 11th, the phrase was used on Tumblr in the form of an anonymous reply, posted by Tumblr^[6] user minifuyu, who received six notes over five months (shown below).

A tweet posted on November 17th, 2021, by Twitter^[7] user B6TGIRLS went viral, further popularizing the catchphrase going into early 2022. The tweet made a joke about the word Yassifcation not being in the Bible and received roughly 173,000 likes over the course of two months (shown below). It was also reposted to Instagram^[8] the same day, where it received roughly 23,800 likes in the same timeframe.
