  • S4E10 - Underdogs and Projects

    What is your relationship with the Old Testament?  Is it just the required reading for the class of Christianity, or the prequel to the New Testament that nobody really wants to care about?  Or is it something better?  

    Also, my fruit trees died.

  • S4E9 - Yahweh, creativity and divine prerogatives

    What does the God of the Bible allow, and better yet, what does he enjoy?  We'll look at an odd little story in the book of Kings to see how God collaborates with people, and if you listen long enough, a rabbit trail on divine prerogatives.

     

    Gotta love you some Heiser:

    Brief Insights on Mastering Bible Doctrine by Dr. Michael Heiser has a chapter on this topic!  Chapter 19.

  • S4E6 - Yahweh and his characteristics

    We've talked a lot before about God and his titles... the messiah, Lord vs. LORD, but we've never talked about God's characteristics.  This is especially fitting after talking about other ancient gods and their characteristics.  We'll start discussing God's personhood and character in this episode, though it's only scratching the surface!

  • S4E5 - Egyptian mythology and the golden calf

    I've always resisted learning about Egyptian mythology because it seems overwhelming... and it is!  But it can really help with understanding nuance and how some of the things in the Old Testament really make much better sense with it in mind.  Listen in as we talk about how Egyptian mythology makes the golden calf story of Exodus just a little less weird.

  • S4E4 - Chaos and the Bible

    Have you ever wondered what a Leviathan or Behemoth is?  Is there a place for chaos in God's kingdom?  We'll look at some Ancient Near Eastern mythology to compare with what the God of the Bible does with chaos.

  • S4E3 - Creation Myths and the Bible

    The empires and cultures in the ancient near east had a significant impact on the world of the Bible, and on the Israelites themselves.  Yahweh, the God of the Bible, is distinct from the gods of these cultures and we won't know how he's different unless we know how the other gods and their legacies were characterized.  Join me in looking at creation myths from Babylon, Sumeria and Egypt, and what it can all tell us about God and the Bible.

     

    Some good resources:

    The Enuma Elish, an article

    The Atrahasis Epic
