Looking to understand biblical concepts with the help of the original languages and historical and cultural context.

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.

If God is supreme in the universe, (and he is!), what does that mean? How do we know? What else is there in the spiritual world?

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.

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 t...
I thought I could just take some flights and run around the country without problems, and also thought starting another language on my break was an easy side quest. I was wrong on both counts.

Part of making biblical Hebrew more accessible and easier to learn (especially for Bible translators) is making more easy reading materials to learn it. You don't pick up Shakespeare to learn English, and starting in the Old Testament to learn biblical Hebrew is pretty hard. It can be very discouraging and it's part of why (one part!) only 1% of people who learn biblical Hebrew in seminary or college actually go on to use it. It...
John's last book and the Bible's last book is an apocalypse, a revelation by God through Jesus. But how does it relate to other apocalyptic literature and how does that inform our reading of it?

The gospels are the most taught about, talked about and arguably the easiest to understand part of the Bible. What more could I possibly say about them that you might not know??

Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
