    A Would-Be Solomonic Ruler, with Ron Lindo Jr.: Esther 1 (opens the original)

    Episode notes · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    The first chapter of Esther impresses many readers as simple background information for the following story. Taking a hint from the Jewish Targums (Aramaic translations of the OT), Ron Lindo found that there are many allusions to 1 Kings 1-10, suggesting parallels between the Persian king, Ahasuerus (Xerxes), and Israel's King Solomon. Dr. Lindo is Assistant Professor of Christian Ministry at East Texas Baptist University. His publications include Literary Allusions in Esther: A Study on the Con

    Seeing is Not Believing, Part III, with J. D. Atkins: Acts 1:3 (opens the original)

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    Luke reports that Jesus, in the days following his resurrection but before his ascension, "presented himself alive... by many proofs, appearing to them during forty days and speaking about the kingdom of God" (ESV). Grammatically and contextually, it turns out, the "proofs" do not merely refer to the physical evidence for the resurrection (Luke 24:36-43) but also to the way that Jesus's death and resurrection fulfill the Scriptures (Luke 24:44-47). Dr. J. D. Atkins is Associate Professor of New

    The Church of God, the Continuation of Israel, with G. K. Beale: 1 Corinthians 1:2 and Nehemiah 13:1 (opens the original)

    Episode notes · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    The phrase, "the church of God," is used only by Paul in the NT, and occurs only once in the OT, in Nehemiah 13:1. Is Paul's use of the phrase under the influence of this OT passage, and, if so, what would the connection entail? Dr. Gregory Beale , long time Professor of New Testament at Wheaton College & Graduate School , and elsewhere, is currently Professor of New Testament at Reformed Theological Seminary in Dallas. He has written and edited or co-edited many books, including a commentary on

    The Logos as Locus for God's Glory, with Denis Salgado: John 1:14 (opens the original)

    Episode notes · Positive tone

    Read excerpt

    "The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us" (John 1:14, NIV). The verb ( σκηνόω ) translated as "made his dwelling" occurs in the NT also in Rev. 7:15; 12:12; 13:6; and 21:3. It turns out to be a suggestive verb with a strong history in the OT connected with Moses' tabernacle. Dr. Denis L. Salgado is the Lead Research Fellow & Assistant Executive Director at the Center for the Study of New Testament Manuscripts (CSNTM) . His publications include (co-editor), Intersection: Interdiscipl

    So Many Days Till Judgment, with Milton Acosta: Jonah 3:4 (opens the original)

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    In the Hebrew of Jonah 3:4, the prophet announces a forty day delay before judgment falls on the Assyrian city of Nineveh. In the Greek version (LXX) of the same passage, the period allowed is just three days. Sometimes the Greek version is a more reliable witness to the original than the Hebrew, since the Hebrew may exist only in later copies. So did Jonah announce a deadline of three days or forty days? Dr. Milton Acosta is Associate Director of Training with Mesa Global, and was formerly prof
