LATEST EPISODE 🔗

Earlier this year I excitedly told my dad that they had "finally done it!" By that I meant that a major bible translation finally put the divine name directly in the text instead of keeping it the antecedent to "LORD". My dad promptly ordered himself a copy of the Legacy Standar…

The Russian invasion of Ukraine has you feeling like me. You're somewhere past confusion, but short on confidence. Are you feeling fearful? I recognize fear because I cry when I'm afraid. I haven't cried yet, but I have felt tears well up. But I have seen others begin to spread fear.…
How many slaves did Philemon have? Is this letter about slavery? If so, what does it have to say? If not, what is it about? Join me in another full Bible book study, this time of the book of Philemon. Open your Bible and have the pause button ready as we begin with the questions, continue to the re…
As I reviewed the episode on 1 John, it became clear to me that we need to chat about "determining antecedents"--and there is probably no better book of the Bible than 1 John to use. Who is 'we'? Who is 'he'? Who is 'you'? Aren't you dying to know, and k…

I just learned about (and purchased) the newly published "Legacy Standard Bible" translation. Already there are many opinions and thoughts and reactions being offered, and as studying the Bible is the raison d'etre of this podcast, I wanted to share--in a word--my thoughts and hopes …

Ep. 12 - Jude

We say "Jude" but in the original Koine Greek, the man's name is identical to what we translate as "Judas". Isn't that a piece of compelling Bible trivia? (Not that it has anything to do with the contents of this short letter.) In any case, unlike those who opted to sh…

Ep. 11 - Nahum

When it came to Ninevah, the LORD voted, "Nay!" We shouldn't be surprised that a short Bible book would reveal a short truth. But is that all there is to this minor prophet's short book? Was there nothing else that the LORD removed from the face of the earth through this vision …
