The Nephilim are fascinating. They are mentioned in Genesis 6, Jude and 2 Peter. The use of the word "renowned" or "mighty" seems to be a literal description, while "giants" seems to be hyperbole. Nevertheless, they are described as having extraordinary size, strength, or status, though the biblical texts provide only brief and ambiguous descriptions. In this podcast, host Martin Tanner cuts through the confusion and leaves with a clear idea of who the Nephilim were.

Why was Eve formed from Adam's rib? How can a snake be a deceiver in the Garden of Eden, and then be a savior in Numbers 21, when people who looked at a bronze snake were cured from snake bites? Did people really live over 900 years? Adam, Seth, Enosh, and Methuselah lived from 912 to 969, according to the Bible.

What is an angel? Are angels supernatural? What is their purpose? Martin Tanner answers these and other questions, and also explains why some angels are depicted in art and in the Bible as having wings.

Recorded in Luke 4:16-21 is Jesus' first proclamation that he is the Messiah. In this episode, host Martin Tanner explains why Jesus read Isaiah 61 from a Greek Bible, and why he stopped reading his quote in the middle of verse 2, mid-sentence. He also explains where the Greek Bible came from, and why it was used in Jewish Synagogues in the first century.

Since the Jewish synagogue shootings and LDS chapel shootings, there has been a significant increase in internet chatter by anti-Mormons claiming The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is not a Christian denomination, and its members are not Christians. In this episode, host Martin Tanner uses logic, fairness, definitions, and facts to show that Latter-day Saints are Christians.
