OK, I watched that. It was interesting. Some of it was a bit weird, but it was interesting.

Perhaps I should expand on my earlier response.
The dream itself was interesting. Some of the psychological stuff he said afterwards was weird to me, but the dream was interesting. It made me think of certain passages in the Bible involving kings who have died. These may not involve the concept of resurrection like the dream did, but at least they have to do with kings and the realm of the dead.
(Keep in mind the dream involved kings who were armed, "warrior types" & "formidable figures" who then started fighting each other.) In Ezekiel 32:17-32 it talks about various peoples, chiefs, and kings who go down to Sheol. Here are some examples - "The mighty chiefs shall speak of them, with their helpers, out of the midst of Sheol: ‘They have come down, they lie still, the uncircumcised, slain by the sword.’" (v. 21) "... went down to Sheol with their weapons of war, whose swords were laid under their heads, and whose iniquities are upon their bones ..." (v. 27) "... [Pharaoh] shall be laid to rest among the uncircumcised, with those who are slain by the sword, Pharaoh and all his multitude, declares the Lord God." (v. 32)
What also came to mind was that famous passage in Isaiah 14, which contains this - "Sheol beneath is stirred up to meet you when you come; it rouses the shades to greet you, all who were leaders of the earth; it raises from their thrones all who were kings of the nations." (Isaiah 14:9)
Like I said, these verses have to do with people going down to the dead, rather than being raised from the dead like in the dream. But these passages still seem relevant to me. And we know that the dead will be raised and will face judgment. And "at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father." (Phil. 2:10-11)
As people in the comments were pointing out, Jordan Peterson and everyone else needs to surrender and bow the knee to Jesus.
