If you've ever read the Bible and felt tension between different passages, or found yourself in conversation with another Christian only to realize there are unresolvable differences at play, then Bill Brown's new book "acred Tension"is going to be right up your alley. Bill argues that this tension isn't a bug in the system—it's exactly what the Bible is supposed to do. In our conversation, we explore how the diversity of Scripture isn't a liability but rather an invitation to dialogue. From the multiple creation stories in Genesis to the competing voices in wisdom literature, Bill shows us how the biblical editors intentionally preserved these different perspectives to foster conversation among readers. We explore what it means to read Scripture as Scripture—with expectant reverence and critical engagement—and how this approach transforms both our understanding of biblical authority and our practice of faith. This is a conversation about learning to sit with sacred tension rather than trying to resolve it, and discovering how that tension itself becomes a source of wisdom and transformation. You can WATCH the conversation on YouTube Dr. William P. Brown is Professor of Old Testament at Columbia Theological Seminary in Decatur, Georgia, where he has taught for over 20 years. He is a leading biblical scholar specializing in Hebrew Bible/Old Testament studies, wisdom literature, and the intersection of faith and critical scholarship. Known for his engaging teaching style and ability to make complex biblical scholarship accessible, Dr. Brown bridges the gap between academic rigor and pastoral formation, showing how critical study of Scripture can deepen rather than diminish faith. In Sacred Tension: Embracing Dissonance and Dialogue in the Old Testament, popular biblical scholar Bill Brown suggests that the diversity in the Bible is in fact one of its greatest strengths, pointing us toward “more” Bible, not less. He invites us to read the Old Testament as a wide-ranging dialogue that is in conversation both with itself and with us, fostering further discussion and mutual discernment. With passion and expert insight, Brown takes you on an enlivening journey through the Bible, exploring its dissonance and complexity anew. Let the conversations begin!

Numbers 18: The Responsibilities and Privileges of the Priests and Levites Numbers 18 is a chapter in the Book of Numbers in the Hebrew Bible/Old Testament that outlines the duties and privileges of the Levites and priests (Aaronic priesthood) concerning the tabernacle and the offerings of Israel. This chapter establishes the structure of priestly service, the inheritance of the Levites, and the tithe system that sustains their work. God directly speaks to Aaron, defining the specific duties and responsibilities of the priests and Levites in caring for the sanctuary. Only Aaron and his descendants are allowed to handle the most sacred aspects of worship, while the Levites are assigned to assist them. God warns that any unauthorized individual (non-Levite) who approaches the holy objects or enters restricted areas will bear the penalty of death. This separation of roles ensures that the sanctuary remains holy and that its services are carried out properly. The Levites are designated as substitutes for the firstborn of Israel, a concept that originates from Exodus 13:1-2, where God claimed the firstborn of Israel as His own after sparing them during the Passover in Egypt. Rather than requiring the service of every firstborn male in Israel, God chooses the Levites as His dedicated servants to perform the work of the tabernacle. Unlike the other tribes of Israel, the Levites do not receive land as an inheritance. Instead, they are given the tithes and offerings brought by the Israelites, which are considered holy to God. This system ensures that the Levites can focus on their spiritual duties rather than agricultural or economic labor. God explicitly states in Numbers 18:20, “You shall have no inheritance in their land, nor shall you have any portion among them; I am your portion and your inheritance among the children of Israel.” The Levites' dependence on God's provision reinforces the idea that their work is solely devoted to ministering in the tabernacle. The Israelites are required to give a tenth (tithe) of their produce to support the Levites. This tithe system, established in Numbers 18:21-24, ensures that the Levites are sustained while they serve in the tabernacle. However, the Levites are not exempt from giving; they are required to offer a tithe from their received portion to the priests as an offering to the Lord (Numbers 18:26-29). This principle creates a cycle of giving that sustains both the priests and Levites in their service to God. Strict rules and consequences are outlined for the handling of holy offerings. The sacred portions of the offerings are reserved for the priests and their families, ensuring that only those ordained for temple service may consume them. Unauthorized handling of the holy things results in severe consequences, including death. These regulations reinforce the sacredness of God's presence and the importance of reverence in worship. Numbers 18 holds great historical and theological significance. The centralization of worship around the tabernacle reinforces the idea that God's presence is among Israel and must be approached with reverence and holiness. The Levitical system set the precedent for later Jewish priesthood practices in the First and Second Temples in Jerusalem. Additionally, the principle of tithing outlined in this chapter influenced later Jewish and Christian traditions regarding the financial support of religious leadership. This chapter establishes a divinely structured system where God's chosen servants are provided for through the offerings of the people, allowing them to focus entirely on their sacred duties. It emphasizes the holiness of God's sanctuary, the importance of obedience in worship, and the ongoing responsibility of the people to sustain their spiritual leaders.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sendme-radio--732966/support.

In this Podcast, I explain how the first, foundational part of the Hebrew Bible/Old Testament, called in Hebrew Torah, was five books instead of four or six. Some have argued that this foundational part of the Bible should be a Hexateuch—that is, the first six books—because the promise of land is so prominent in Genesis and Joshua (the 6th book) describes Israel's getting the land. Others have argued that the Torah is a Tetrateuch, or the first 4 books, because the vocabulary and outlook of Deuteronomy is replete in Joshua through 2 Kings, but is not found in Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, and Deuteronomy. Despite these hypotheses, the canonizing community made sure that the Torah was five books. In effect, they took the first book of the Deuteronomistic History (Deuteronomy) and made it the last book of Torah. Why did they do that? Because the Torah ended when Israel did not have the land, the monarchy, or the temple, the very situation they experienced in the Exile. It was in that period that decisions had to be made about how to “shape” Scripture.
103 sermons and four stories between the two of us, but all ways of celebrating the goodness of hope and healing. From the gospel of Mark, two intertwined stories of a desperate woman healed and a young girl raised from the dead - both of whom needed Jesus' power and great faith. And from the Hebrew Bible (Old Testament), two stories of powerful men struggling with some kind of mental/spiritual illness - both of whom needed time and the support of their communities to heal. Resonant and relevant, these stories still hit us where we live: squarely in the messy, blessed mix of humanity.
The "Best of" First Reading Easter Series This summer, while the Lectionary uses the Book of Acts as the first reading, we are re-releasing some of our best episodes from the First Reading Podcast vault.

Dr. Vanessa Lovelace. Dr. Lovelace has moved institutions since our interview and is now Associate Dean at Lancaster Theological Seminary, where she is also a faculty member in Hebrew Bible/Old Testament. Dr. Lovelace has a brand new book about to drop with Fortress Academic Press: A Womanist Reading of Hebrew Bible Narratives as the Politics of Belonging from an Outsider Within. The book comes out in June, but you can pre-order it today!
Are you and ignorant Christian that knows about the Bible but not what the Bible means today? Lois Tverberg, popular Christian author of the “Rabbi Jesus” book series, shares the story of why she left her career as a college biology professor to write about the Jewish context of Jesus full time. It begins with her struggle to answer a critical question for many Christians. Did the historical Jesus actually claim to be the Messiah and Son of God, or was this just made up by later Gentile followers? During the 1980s, the "Jesus Seminar" filled the headlines with this theory. Her college religion professors were saying the same thing. Ten years later, Lois discovered a group of Jewish and Christian scholars who showed that just the opposite was true. Jesus' words were filled with bold claims to be the Messiah and Son of God, but he expressed this through allusions to the Hebrew Bible (Old Testament). New Testament scholars who were ignorant of this well-known Jewish teaching style completely missed the implications of his words.

In this episode, Ericka Graham sits down with the professor that first introduced her to Biblical Studies at Rice University, Dr. Mattias Henze. The two discuss the power of asking questions, and what it means to hold onto a Christian faith while using other texts and religions to improve literacy. About Dr. Henze:Matthias Henze was born and raised in Hanover, Germany. In 1992 he earned a Master of Divinity from the University of Heidelberg, Germany, and moved to the United States to pursue a Ph.D. in Harvard's Department of Near Eastern Languages and Civilizations. After completing his doctorate in 1997, Dr. Henze joined Rice's department of religion, where he is now the Isla Carroll and Percy E. Turner Professor of Hebrew Bible and Early Judaism.His areas of interest include the Hebrew Bible/Old Testament, Jewish literature and thought at the time of the Second Temple, apocalyptic literature, and the Qumran fragments. In particular, Dr. Henze focuses on those early texts that never became part of the Jewish Bible - often subsumed under the labels ‘Apocrypha' and ‘Pseudepigrapha' – and what we can learn when these texts are read side by side with the canonical writings.Dr. Henze has written and edited ten books. While at Rice he has won five teaching/mentoring Awards. He was also named a founding fellow of Rice's Center for Teaching Excellence. In 2009 he founded Rice's Program in Jewish Studies, of which he continues to serve as director.

“Yes, The Bible Is True…Here's The Proof!” www.PastorTodd.org www.ToddCoconato.com/give www.RRCNashville.org www.PastorToddbook.com Biblical scholars and many Christians believe that the Bible is the word of God based on several lines of evidence, including historical, textual, and theological aspects. While it's important to note that this is a matter of faith, here are some arguments that support this belief: 1. **Historical Accuracy**: The Bible contains numerous historical accounts that align with archaeological and historical findings. For example, events like the reign of specific kings, battles, and the existence of certain cities have been corroborated by archaeological evidence, lending credibility to the Bible's historical accuracy. 2. **Fulfillment of Prophecies**: The Bible contains many prophecies, and some have been fulfilled in a remarkably accurate manner. For example, the Old Testament contains numerous prophecies about the coming of the Messiah, which Christians believe were fulfilled in the person of Jesus Christ. This suggests a divine source of knowledge. 3. **Consistency Across Texts**: Despite being written by multiple authors over centuries, the Bible maintains a consistent theological message. This continuity suggests divine inspiration guiding the authors. 4. **Transformational Impact**: The Bible has had a profound impact on individuals, cultures, and societies throughout history. Its teachings have shaped moral and ethical systems and have inspired countless people to live virtuous lives. 5. **The Dead Sea Scrolls**: The discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls in the mid-20th century is significant for biblical scholarship. These ancient manuscripts included copies of the Hebrew Bible (Old Testament) dating back to around the time of Jesus. The remarkable similarity between these scrolls and later biblical texts suggests that the content of the Bible has been preserved with a high degree of accuracy over time. For evidence from the Bible itself regarding its divine origin and preservation, consider the following passages: - **2 Timothy 3:16-17**: "All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work." This verse suggests that the Bible is divinely inspired. - **Isaiah 40:8**: "The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God endures forever." This verse emphasizes the enduring nature of God's word. - **Psalm 119:160**: "Your word is true from the beginning: and every one of your righteous judgments endures forever." This verse underscores the truth and enduring quality of God's word. In summary, biblical scholars and Christians argue that the Bible is the word of God based on historical accuracy, fulfillment of prophecies, theological consistency, its transformative impact, and the preservation of texts like the Dead Sea Scrolls. We absolutly believe that the Bible is in fact the word of God!

June 28, 2023 PM, Acts 9:22.The word Christ is another word for anointed or Messiah. All three mean the same thing. This is a very important concept in Hebrew religious thought because it refers to a person specially chosen by God to be Savior, Lord, and revealer of God to humankind. This was an individual, a person who was planned to be set apart by God as priest, king, and prophet. There are many references in the Hebrew Bible (Old Testament) to this person. Some passages use other descriptive words or phrases like servant or holy one or Son of God.
I caught up Jennifer Magnano aka The Barefoot Preacher - writer, doula, maternal-child health advocate, and mother living with chronic illness. She honors the wild, holy work of local and global motherhood through resonant writing and speaking, companionship, resources & education. With personal experience of the chaos and complexity to exist throughout the caregiving years (in both our bodies and lives), Jennifer speaks with urgency; her goal to elicit a tender lived-response in humanity that echoes for and in our generations to come. We chatted about - Breaking God out of the boxes, which can look like experiencing the Divine in the wonder of everyday moments, being in sacred relationship with God as Mother, Father, or however the Holy One shows up for us. Jennifer's journey of healing from religious trauma. What it's like to live on the edge of disability and raise two kiddos with their own health challenges. Her writing, which challenges us to awaken continually in multiple ways; we delved into two essays from Reclamation (her newsletter on Substack): It's Ok to Upset the Internet and Your Trauma is Welcome Here. Creating space in our minds, hearts and spirits for a theology rooted in collective liberation. Jennifer lifted up the work of Rev. Wilda C. Gafney, Hebrew biblical scholar and professor, Episcopal priest who teaches Biblical Hebrew, Hebrew Bible/Old Testament and, Womanist and Feminist Biblical Studies.

The Hebrew Bible/Old Testament lists dozens of musical instruments, and we know that the Song of Songs was... well... a song, so what role did music play in Ancient Israel? A big one! Special guest Jonathan Friedmann joins Helen and Dave to talk about his favorite ancient instrument (hint: it has strings), why the high priest in the Temple wore bells on his robes, and to settle the argument once and for all what the psalms originally sounded like.

As much as 80% of the Hebrew Bible/Old Testament was written during and immediately after the Babylonian Exile in the 6th century BC. As our guest Anja Klein explains in this fascinating episode, the destruction of Jerusalem by Nebuchadnezzar in 587 BC was an inflection point in the history of the Jewish people. In Babylon, the exiled elites of the Kingdom of Judah had to forge a new identity. And out of that trauma (and resilience) came a compelling story of a chosen people and their one true God.

Steed Davidson, Ph.D is Dean of the Faculty and Vice President of Academic Affairs and is Professor of Hebrew Bible / Old Testament at McCormick Theological Seminary. In this Silhouette Interview, Davidson discusses his childhood desire to be a meteorologist and the pride of his family in his profession. Also: surprise at the difficulty of the teaching life with its constant attention, the superpower of mediation and the "Sense of We," surviving violences by writing and community, and the miracle of igniting students' curiosity.
The Hebrew Bible/Old Testament is nearly silent on the lives of ordinary women in the ancient world. Thankfully, we have intriguing clues from archeology and ethnography that help piece together women's lives more than 3,000 years ago. Special guest Carol Meyers doesn't think that Ancient Israelite society was a strict patriarchy — despite troublesome verses like the so-called "curse of Eve" — but that women exercised important economic, social, and ritual functions in home and village life.

Givers, Doers, & Thinkers—A Podcast on Philanthropy and Civil Society
This week on Givers, Doers, & Thinkers, we talk to theologian Gary Anderson about the surprising things the biblical tradition has to say about the poor, charity, and charity's rewards.Gary Anderson is the Hesburgh Professor of Catholic Theology at the University of Notre Dame and holds a doctorate from Harvard University. He is interested in all dimensions of biblical studies. His specialization is in the Hebrew Bible/Old Testament, but because of his interest in the history of interpretation, he also works in Second Temple Judaism and early Christian sources. He has written several works on these topics, most notable being Sin: A History and Charity: The Place of the Poor in the Biblical Tradition, which is what we spend time discussing in this episode. To kick off this chat, Jeremy and Gary walk through a brief history of charity in the biblical tradition. They touch on weighty questions such as charity's place in social reform, its “worthy” recipients, and how different faiths and denominations express it. Then they shift gears a bit to discuss the somewhat uncomfortable and confusing ways influential figures like Mother Teresa of Calcutta and Bill Gates practice charity and what that means for ordinary folks. As someone concerned about the flourishing of civil society, this episode will challenge your thinking on the best ways to understand and offer charity and how it impacts your soul. You'll hear from senior consultant Mark Diggs on why he thinks direct response is like fishing from a riverbank and what that means for nonprofit leaders when communicating with donors.You can find Givers, Doers, & Thinkers here at Philanthropy Daily, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, Google Podcasts, Buzzsprout, and wherever you listen to podcasts.We'd love to hear your thoughts, ideas, questions, and recommendations for the podcast!
