Podcasts about biblical texts

This episode of Mutuality Matters, hosted by CBE International, interviews Mayra Ugalde who delves into the significant role women played in Paul's ministry and offers insights into commonly misunderstood biblical passages used to limit women's roles in church and society. The discussion emphasizes the importance of understanding the cultural context of scripture, the equality in Christ beyond gender, and the mutual submission in Christian marriage. Various translations of key texts like Ephesians 5 and Genesis 3:16 are compared to highlight biases and interpretations. The episode concludes with a call to read the Bible holistically to grasp its true message of equality and mutuality in Christ.

Is the label "biblical" helping or hurting how we approach faith, church, and cultural challenges? In this thought-provoking episode of the Voxology Podcast, Mike and Tim explore the pitfalls of using "biblical" as a rigid brand, how it impacts theology, and its effects on navigating issues like justice, community, and interpretation of Scripture. They discuss the importance of reading the Bible in community, embracing humility, and fostering critical thinking to form faithful and wise communities. Drawing on listener feedback, they tackle how Scripture has been used both to liberate and to harm and ask what it means to embody a cruciform way of living. The conversation dives into the role of the church in society, the balance between individual and communal faith practices, and the dangers of reducing the Bible to oversimplified categories. With humor, deep insight, and a commitment to justice and Jesus' teachings, this episode invites you to rethink how we engage with Scripture and one another. #bible #selfimprovement #foundationforintentionalcommunity #biblestudy #importanceofchristiancommunity #bible #solascriptura #livingbythebook #eisegesisvs.exegesis #biblestudy Chapters 00:00 Introduction and Week Recap 02:51 Modeling for a Glamping Resort 06:05 Podcast Updates and Listener Feedback 09:07 Discussion on Bible Accessibility and Interpretation 11:57 The Role of Community in Bible Reading 18:09 Intent Behind Bible Study 21:05 Unity and Diversity in the Bible 26:00 The Purpose of the Bible in Community 30:09 Critique of Biblical Branding 34:02 Closing Thoughts on Wisdom and Learning 35:25 The Limitations of Biblical Prepackaging 38:51 The Harm of Misusing Biblical Concepts 44:52 Understanding the Bible as a Cross-Cultural Experience 51:59 The Three Elements of Biblical Interpretation 59:52 The Importance of Context in Biblical Texts 01:06:01 The Dark History of Biblical Misinterpretation 01:09:55 Navigating Modern Misinformation and Biblical Understanding As always, we encourage and would love discussion as we pursue.

What if the Bible isn't meant to be neatly packaged and easily explained? In this episode, CHT Fellow Hakeem Bradley joins The Biblical Mind Podcast to discuss how engaging scripture means leaning into tension rather than eliminating it. He explains why asking better questions leads to deeper understanding and why forcing Jesus into every Old Testament passage can sometimes do more harm than good. Bradley also shares his personal story—growing up in the Five Percent Nation, a movement that sees the Black man as divine, and how a surprising mentorship relationship led him to faith in Jesus. His journey from deep skepticism to biblical scholarship gives him a unique perspective on how to approach scripture without assumptions or shortcuts. The conversation explores how biblical authors thought, why Jesus himself had to read scripture in context, and how reading the Bible as a tension-filled conversation—rather than a collection of easy answers—can reshape faith and theology.

How does the Bible interpret itself? In this episode, Dr. Brent Strawn joins The Biblical Mind Podcast to explore intertextuality—the ways biblical authors intentionally or unconsciously connect their writings to earlier texts. Strawn breaks down different types of intertextuality, from direct citations (like Jesus quoting Psalm 22) to subtle patterns that only emerge when we read scripture holistically. Together with Dru Johnson, Strawn unpacks how intertextuality deepens biblical meaning and why recognizing these connections can transform the way we understand scripture. They also discuss the surprising link between Solomon and the Mark of the Beast (666) and how Revelation critiques imperial power using the legacy of Israel's wealthiest king. Strawn argues that biblical authors weren't just making random allusions—they were teaching us how to read scripture well. If we can recognize these hyperlinks, we can move beyond surface-level readings and grasp the depth of biblical theology.

He set out to write a resource book that was not sharply for one side or the other. In doing so he found one of the sides had no Biblical support. Now he is a balanced advocate for the mutualist or biblical egalitarian interpretation of the Bible. And he can explain why in detail!Andrew Bartlett is a popular speaker and author of Men and Women in Christ, Fresh light from the Biblical Texts. When He researched and wrote his boo he was not aware of the Tru316 publications by Dr. Joy Fleming. After having discovered them he is incorporating the insight that in Genesis 3:16 God took action in two ways, multiplying two things not one as many Bible versions mistranslate the Hebrew words for their readers. Go deeper? Dr. Joy Fleming's book is Man and Woman in Biblical Unity, Theology from Genesis 2-3.Andrew Bartlett's book is available from Inter Varsity Press. The Tru316 Foundation (www.Tru316.com) is the home of The Eden Podcast with Bruce C. E. Fleming where we “true” the verse of Genesis 3:16. The Tru316 Message is that “God didn't curse Eve (or Adam) or limit woman in any way.” Once Genesis 3:16 is made clear the other passages on women and men become clear too. You are encouraged to access the episodes of Seasons 1-11 of The Eden Podcast for teaching on the seven key passages on women and men. Are you a reader?

As a seasoned Bible translator and professor, Dr. Ciampa highlights how translations can shape perceptions of gender roles, stressing the importance of considering cultural contexts to avoid perpetuating patriarchal interpretations. He delves into the challenges of domesticating and foreignizing translations, the misinterpretation of biblical texts regarding women, and how translations might better honor women's roles in biblical texts and today's context. The episode also explores the influence of English Bible translations globally, particularly concerning women's leadership and addressing abuse. Dr. Ciampa expresses his hope for future translations to more fully recognize women's worth and contributions, in alignment with an egalitarian view of scripture that sees men and women as equal in authority and leadership in all spheres of life.    00:00 Welcome to Mutuality Matters  00:31 Introducing Dr. Roy Ciampa: A Scholar's Journey  04:17 The Impact of Bible Translation on Gender and Race  08:24 Exploring the Greco-Roman Context of Biblical Texts  15:35 The Challenge of Domesticating and Foreignizing Translations  20:56 Elevating Women's Stories in Scripture and History  33:31 Dreams for Future Bible Translations and Women's Roles  35:08 Closing Thoughts and Resources    Bio  Dr. Ciampa has authored numerous scholarly essays on NT themes, especially on the interpretation of the Old Testament within the New Testament, but also on issues more directly related to Bible translation (including articles that address translation issues in Acts 17:11 and 1 Corinthians 7:1 that became footnotes in the CSB.

Most streaming services have a “Deep Cuts” playlist showcasing an artist's more obscure songs. It is so rewarding to explore those tunes. We often find hidden gems. Consider Scripture memory in the same way. Of course, we want to memorize the Bible's greatest hits. However, because “All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness” (2 Tim. 3:16), the Holy Spirit has something to say and teach in every verse. Our souls will be nourished when we commit these more obscure passages to memory. In today's episode. We will discuss the why and how of memorizing the Bible's “Deep Cuts.” Tune in for another informative episode of The Scripture Memory Podcast. Click here to get SwordGrip Old Testament: Volume 2. Thanks for listening to The Scripture Memory Podcast!

Assistant professor of religious studies Hugo Mendez (FFP '22) discusses his research in his recent book projects: one exploring the role of St. Stephen in early Christian communities, and the most recent examining the biblical books of John. He also describes his fellowship experiences – at the IAH and at the National Humanities Center – and how they provided the needed time and interdisciplinary connections to work on his current book.

In this episode, Alice interviews Dr Joseph Scales, a Marie Curie Postdoctoral Fellow in the department of Religion, Philosophy and History at the University of Agder in Norway. This podcast is the second part of a pair looking at the history and representation of conflict in ancient Judea.  In part 1, Conflict and Identity in Ancient Judaism, Joe gave us a whirlwind tour of a whole series of conflicts that shaped Jewish history from around 175 BCE through to the early second century CE – looking particularly at their impact on Jewish nationhood and identity formation. That conversation provides really useful context for this epsiode, which dives deep into some of the textual sources for Jewish conflict history in antiquity. Joe draws particularly on his current research project, called Fighting Talk: Motivating Violence in Ancient Judaism, which examines the nature of pre-battle speeches in ancient Jewish texts and their relationship to established forms of pre-battle exhortation in Greek and Roman sources. As Joe has written: ‘People resort to violence for all kinds of reasons. In the interests of peace, it is essential to understand how people may be incited toward organised violence. …In warfare, combatants are often incited towards their actions by others, and in the ancient world, such incitement frequently took the form of a pre-battle speech: Greek, Roman and Jewish literature contains many examples.' In unpicking a wide range of ancient pre-battle speeches, and exploring recurring components (such as the othering of enemies, claims about the just or necessary nature of upcoming violence, a commander's handling of his soldiers' fears, and visualisations of success), Joe's research contributes not only to a deeper understanding of how warfare was conceptualised and driven in antiquity but also to wider reflections on how organised violence can be conceptualised, justified and incited today.We hope you find the discussion interesting.

Do the English Biblical translations convey the original meanings of the Hebrew, Greek, and Aramaic texts from 2,000 years ago? How do the original verses differ from the ones we know today and extract meaning from? CONTEXT MATTERS, and, in this case, so does history. Not only do languages, but social norms of scribes' roles, environmental and social crises, and political interpretation all played a role in the texts distributed across the world. Now that I was able to sit down with Dr. James Sedlacek and discuss, it all makes sense. James E. Sedlacek received his BA from God's Bible School & College, Masters from MDiv Cincinnati Christian University and PhD from Nazarene Theological College. James is currently Professor of Biblical Languages at Israel Institute of Biblical Studies, teaching several levels of Greek and Hebrew, and developing exegesis courses. Additionally, James is examining special syntax of infinitives, certain patterns of repeating conditional clauses, and the lexical meaning of hapax legomena. His interests include examining texts of various languages using linguistic methods along with critiquing interpretations of those texts.

Textual Criticism, Chapter 1 of As it is Translated Correctly Episode 700 Pages 1 to 11 Today we have over a thousand different “Christian” religions, all claiming to be right as they denounce all the others as being wrong. All are preaching different doctrines, yet they hold the same Bible in their hands. Unbelievable as it may seem, they still contend and make war upon each other. Why so much confusion? There may possibly be several reasons for such a labyrinth of discord and contention: (1) the Bible is being misinterpreted or discarded; (2) it is not written clearly enough for universal understanding; (3) the translators and scribes made errors; (4) many plain and precious truths have been left out; (5) and possibly, it is a combination of all of the above. It is certainly evident that something is wrong. All this contention, confusion, and warring among the Christians, indicate that man has misinterpreted, mistranslated and misunderstood the words of God.

In this episode of Chasing Leviathan, PJ and Dr. Alison Knight discuss the history of biblical interpretation in early modern England, particularly how translators crafted apologetic approaches to explain difficult passages.

“In Exodus 23, the Israelites are given instructions on how to maintain justice for all. This text lists acts that must be and not be done, so as to prepare a safe and equitable space for all who inhabit the land. Note how this text aims at nurturing a community in which people will act justly, even when it is not in accordance with their preferences or narrow self-interest. Exodus 23, therefore, ensures that everyone is equally entitled to the rights set forth by the law, just as UDHR Article 2 guarantees everyone's entitlement to the rights and freedoms set forth in the UDHR without discrimination.” Link: https://www.cartercenter.org/resources/pdfs/peace/human_rights/universal-declaration-human-rights-scriptually-annotated.pdf.

It is a natural expression of his attributes . . . God's attributes intrinsically lead to his creative work just as they lead to his salvific work. God needs no motivation to create; it simply flows from who he is. He does not need to create; he is the Creator. When we honor and serve him, it is in recognition of those attributes.-John H.

In 2 Timothy 3-16, we are told that all Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness. Christians who believe in the inspiration of Scripture would say that all Scripture is equally inspired, but can we say that all Scripture is equally profitable- How is a book like Leviticus profitable for a New Testament Christian- It's a very challenging book to read and understand. If we cannot understand most of it, how can we glean application for our lives- How can a study of difficult passages and books like Leviticus help us grow in our Christian walk- These questions, and more, are asked and answered today on the Straight Truth Podcast. Join in on the conversation and hear what Dr. Josh Philpot and Dr. Richard Caldwell share about the profitability of reading, meditating, and studying all Scripture, including those difficult sections that seem unprofitable to us.
