Not what I expected
This didn't contain what I expected: ie. insights into biblical archeology, history, language and understanding the cultures of the ancient world.

There were occasional mentions of JEDP theory take as fact at face value. But no references to high profile scholars, departments, schools of thought, subject matter experts, etc.Read full review »

A fascinating look at the bible and its historical context. A lot of the weird stuff makes so much more sense when you see it it in historical context. This is how religious studies should be taught! Thanks so much.

Easy to listen to yet informative. Suitable for those new to Christianity/Judaism or those who have previous knowledge. I’m an ex-Christian now atheist and absolutely LOVE this show.
