Our goal is to explore the narratives of the Bible in light of their cultural and literary context. As we study the Bible, we want to get inside the mind of the author(s) to understand the intended meaning of scripture and how scripture informs our hope in Jesus.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ep 108: The Two Goats and Jesus with Phil Bray Part 3
Q: What do you say to this, to somebody who would push back and say, so why did Jesus have to go to the cross then?
The cross is a central event, but it isn't the only aspect of what Jesus accomplished; it's more complex, involving his life, death, and resurrection that provides authority for reconciliation.
Ep 106: The Two Goats and Jesus with Phil Bray Part 1
Q: What is the Day of Atonement?
The Day of Atonement involves rituals that cleanse the altar and the people of their sins through the sacrifice of two goats, one for purification and the other bearing the sins out of the camp.
Ep 89: Canon: Do We Have the Right Old Testament
Q: How did the Masoretic text make it easier for us to read?
It provided pointing for vowels, which made reading Hebrew easier by distinguishing different meanings.
Ep 89: Canon: Do We Have the Right Old Testament
Q: Are there multiple versions of the Old Testament?
Indeed there are, with small differences between certain additions that do not affect the overall meaning.
Ep 88: Canon: Significance of the Writings
Q: Do you see within the canon doctrines developing past the Torah?
No, there are no new doctrines past the Torah; everything is an outworking of what is already there.
