6:13

In 2 Chr. 17:3-6, remarkable things are said of King Jehoshaphat, culminating in a Hebrew word play that correlates the state of Jehoshaphat’s heart with the Asherim that he tears down while seeking to elevate the Lord.

Moses Sings Amazing Grace, with Lawson Younger: Exodus 34:6-7 13:47

24d ago13:47

13:47

Both Moses and God are popularly thought of as the opposite of grace as portrayed in the Old Testament. Exodus 34 tells the story of a God who does measure out justice to his creation, but magnifies his grace far beyond measure. The difference is that of the life-horizons of an individual contrasted with countless generations. Dr. K. Lawson Younger…

8:35

In the laments of Isaiah 63 and 64, God is asked to look down at his people in salvation.

Art and Truth in a Psalm, with Rico Villanueva: Psalm 1 9:19

9:19

Even in translation, Psalm 1, a favorite of many, can be appreciated for its art and truth. All the more in Hebrew, through which we can see and hear how the psalmist employs letters, repetition of words, sounds, and other devices to convey meaning. Dr. Frederico Villanueva is Regional Commissioning Editor for Langham Publishing and Scholar Care Co…

Because He Was in the Form of God, with Michael Gorman: Philippians 2:6 13:13

23d ago13:13

13:13

Phil. 2:6-11 is and deserves to be one of the most studied passages on Christ in the biblical writings. One grammatical question concerns a participle in v. 6, which is usually understood as concessive (“although”). But might Paul intend a causal sense (“because”)? The implications are profound. Dr. Michael Gorman is Raymond E. Brown Professor of B…

Books Worth (re)Reading, Part 1 48:46

Share in the Abundance of Christ’s Suffering, with Travis Wright: 2 Corinthians 1:5 and Romans 8:18 9:15

2M ago9:15

9:15

English plurals of “mass nouns” (uncountable nouns, such as milk, water) indicate kinds (e.g., cow or goat milks) or multiple instances (e.g., “grab three waters”), but Greek has a third option for the same plurals: an “abundance inference.” Realizing this can sharpen our understanding of certain passages. Travis Wright (PhD, University of Cambridg…

Living Collateral, with Seth Ehorn: Philemon 1 12:50

12:50

The opening words of Philemon prompt us to ask in what sense Paul is a prisoner in relation to Christ. In part this is a grammatical question, but a couple of contemporaneous papyri texts might supply hints as to the cultural understanding. Dr. Seth Ehorn is Assistant Professor of Classics and Biblical Languages at Houston Christian University. Amo…

Small But Important Words, with Jack Messarra: Jeremiah 32:36-37 9:36

3M ago9:36

9:36

In Jeremiah 32:36, a discourse marker is used that would most often signal bad news is coming, sort of like the “Jaws theme” music in a movie. But here it surprises the reader with good news. Jack Messarra completed a master’s degree at the University of Stellenbosch in the field of Hebrew, linguistics, and discourse markers. You can see some of hi…
