(Thanks for bearing with us while this episode was delayed—Rose was recovering from a bout of COVID!)

This episode takes us into the first two books of the Bible, written c. 580 BCE during the Babylonian Captivity of the Judeans and Israelites. Stretching from the creation of the world to the liberation of the Israelites from Egypt, these two books contain some of the most memorable and influential stories that inform the faith of Jews, Christians, and Muslims around the world.
