DISCLAIMER I
This podcast is for anyone and everyone interested in honestly and critically engaging with the texts of the Hebrew Bible.
Our primary goal will be to understand the texts in their original context, as much as can be reconstructed by historical-critical methods. However, personal reflections on the text, its interpretation, and reception history are also welcome.
DISCLAIMER II
We are not biblical scholars. Listeners are encouraged to double check our research, seek out reputable academic sources, and exercise critical thought at all times.
DISCLAIMER III
Jeff’s nieces and nephews are not allowed to listen to this podcast until they turn 18.
