For this one chapter, following Isaac's toledoth, we focus in on the life of the promised son and his relationships with YHWH and the Philistines. Josh, Brendan, and Tori reflect on the similarities to, and deviations from, what his father's life looked like and discuss new terms that YHWH uses to describe his terms for existing in covenant with Hi…

We've come to another chapter full of family lines and names. Often these sections can be tough to read through, especially since most of these characters never come up again.

This chapter feels long and repetitive, but it's worth digging into. Josh, Tori, and Brendan seek to understand what the language has to reveal about what may be beneath the surface of this story and how it relates to Genesis 1. Key Words checed (חֵסֵד) - lovingkindness (especially in covenant relationship) bethulah (בְּתוּלָה) - a virgin almah (עַ…

Chapter 23 of Genesis is pretty straightforward as it centers around Abraham negotiating to buy a plot of land for burying Sarah's lifeless body. Even so, it's a dense chapter worth unpacking. Josh and Brendan aided by Tori's curiosity explore what may be hidden in the language while seeking to understand what's happening in the negotiations. Key W…

This story is tough. It's hard to imagine being in Abraham's shoes and saying yes to God's request, especially considering how out of character the request seems! Why did Abraham say yes? Is there more going on here than we realize? Josh, Tori, and Brendan search the text and its depths to answer these questions and more. Key Words nasah (נָסָה) - …

Josh, Tori, and Brendan explore the culmination of three stories about Abraham in Genesis 21. This exploration focuses on the Hebrew language used in the chapter to tie the events within to other stories previously explored in Genesis in order to shed light on what's happening here. Key Words tsachaq (צְחַק) - to laugh (to make sport, mock, play) g…

It really feels like Abraham with never learn. How can this account possibly shed light on Abraham’s prior deception? What does this mean for the child of promise? What’s God doing in all of this? Josh, Brendan, and Tori explore what looks like a replay of Abraham’s journey to Egypt. Key Words nabi (נָבִיא) - spokesman, speaker, prophet palal (פָלַ…

We've reached one of the most uncomfortable pairing of narratives in the Tanakh. Buried within are echoes of the stories immediately preceding it, as well as language which clues us into parallels to Genesis 3, and the story of Noah, as well as calling forward to parts of Exodus. Josh, Tori, and Brendan dig in to unearth these allusions, as well as…

Rounding out Genesis 18, Josh, Tori, and Brendan dig through the so called bargaining scene in which Abraham pleads for Sodom to be spared if 10 righteous men can be found within its walls. While exploring this passage, we discuss Abraham's demeanor, YHWH's response, and what all of this has to do with intercessory prayer and the divine court. Key …

Genesis 18 is a fairly familiar story for church goers. We know the story of the three visitors and Sarah laughing. Is there anything more we can understand or gain from this story? Josh, Tori, and Brendan discuss and dig into what this account may have to tell us about God and his relationship to Abraham. Sources Bible Hub Contact us with your que…

In Genesis 17, God establishes a covenant with Abraham in addition to the one already established in chapter 15.

Josh, Tori, and Brendan dig in to understand what this covenant is ab…

Genesis 16 is a chapter full of tragedy for a woman who was already living as someone less than human which is told as a replay of the fall in Genesis 3. It speaks of the state of human sinfulness, even that of God's chosen, but also hope in spite of sin and severe wrongdoing. Key Words shama (שָׁמַע) - to hear (and to act in accordance with what's…

Genesis 15 is another very strange story. It’s not every day God shows up to talk to someone face to face, much less to do everything else He does in this chapter. Josh and Brendan work through all of the language and concepts present to derive a rich understanding of the process through which God intends to bring about Renewed Creation through Abr…

Genesis 14 seems fairly straightforward, but it also raises some questions. What’s going on with the nine tribal leaders? Who are they? Who the heck is Melchizedek?

Genesis 13 tells a relatively normal story nestled between two stranger stories. Is there depth to what’s happening here?

Key Words Mamre (מַמְרֵא) - seeing, understanding Sodom (סְדֹם) - flaming, burnt Gomorrah (עֲ…

This week we dig into the strange account of Abram's calling and the failures that occur alongside it. God picked this man the same we he picked Noah, but unlike Noah, Abram doesn't display the level of righteousness we would expect from God's chosen. Did God make a mistake? Is He compromising? Why does Abram receive blessing despite the problems h…

Is there anything we can learn from the record of Shem's descendants in Genesis 11? Josh, Tori, and Brendan dig into the names and their meanings to answer that question.

What's up with the Tower of Babel? It's a story that's relatively known, but rarely understood as more than, "This is to explain why people speak different languages." What's really going on here? Josh and Brendan, with help from Tori's questions and analogies, dive in to understand why the tower was built, why YHWH responded how he did, and why Ba…

The Table of Nations, as this chapter is sometimes known, is a lot to get through. What was going on in the earth at the time these men were named? What do they have to do with each other?

Genesis chapter nine starts off in a world which is both a return to the garden, and yet a garden which is still far from the ideal of the one in Eden. As the chapter continues, Tori, Josh, and Brendan dig into just how far from the Edenic ideal this new garden is. Key Words ervah (עֶרְוָה) - (shameful) nakedness dam (דָּם) - blood kasah (כָּסָה) -…

The story of Noah's ark and the flood is one that's familiar even to people who haven't read the Bible. It's a story we tell kids and paint depictions of it on their walls.

This isn't mer…
