    BONUS: Babylon – City of Sin?

    From the Book of Revelation to Lady Gaga, Babylon has gained a reputation as the quintessential 'City of Sin'. But how did this reputation come about, and does it deserve its name?

    Babylon – The Mother of All Cities

    Babylon is one of the most famous cities and empires in human history. To many people, it conjures images of Hanging Gardens, the Tower of Babel, Nebuchadnezzar, and the exile of the Jewish people. But how much of this is historical fact, and how much of it is later mythology?  To get to the bottom of Babylon, Helen takes a trip in the time machine with our resident ancient historian, Professor Lloyd Lewellyn-Jones. Helen asks Lloyd about his highly acclaimed new book, Babylon: The Mother of All Cities(2026), and discuss the theology, law codes, great texts and daily life of the Bible's most famous – or infamous – city.  Support the show Theme music written and performed by Dave Roos, creator of Biblical Time Machine. Season 4 produced by John Nelson.

    BONUS: Helen Catches up with Dave!

    In 2022, an American journalist called Dave Roos had the idea to create Biblical Time Machine. He teamed up with Prof Helen Bond, and for three years he co-hosted and produced the show. This month, they finally met in person! The Roos clan came to Scotland, and Helen got to find out about what Dave has been up to in the last year. Among other things, they talk about Dave's work with another Bond... James Bond! You can now listen to that podcast – The Other James Bond – on iHeart's Very Special Episodes.

    Who were the Pharisees?

    The Pharisees are among the most villainised groups in Jewish history. For centuries, Christians read them as legalists, religious hypocrites and bitter opponents of Jesus. But have we got the Pharisees all wrong?  To find out, Lloyd takes a trip in the Time Machine with our resident expert, Helen Bond, Professor of Christian Origins at the University of Edinburgh.  Drawing on a range of sources – from Josephus to the Dead Sea Scrolls – they construct a picture of the Pharisees beyond the stereotypes. Where did they come from? What did they believe? And how reliably do the gospels portray them.  Support the show Theme music written and performed by Dave Roos, creator of Biblical Time Machine.

    Imitation in Early Christianity

    Imitation is a huge part of the human experience, as we imitate role models and loved ones. Oscar Wilde called it the 'highest form of flattery'. But what did imitation – or mimesis – look like in early Christianity? To find out, Helen and Lloyd take a trip in the time machine with Professor Cornelis Bennema. They discuss what imitation meant in the ancient world, how the New Testament writers adapted the concept, and why Paul instructs his listeners to 'imitate me'.  Dr Cornelis (‘Cor’) Bennema is Head of Research and Professor of New Testament Studies at the London School of Theology. His main research interests include the Johannine literature, character studies in biblical narrative and early Christian ethics. He is the author of a number of works on mimesis, most recently Imitation in Early Christianity: Mimesis and Religious-Ethical Formation (Eerdmans, 2025).  Support the show Theme music written and performed by Dave Roos, creator of Biblical Time Machine. Season 4 produced by John Nelson.

    BONUS: What Would Jesus Do?

    In this bonus episode for the Time Traveller's Club, Helen and Lloyd take a deeper dive with Dr Cornelis Bennema into the New Testament motif of imitating Jesus. Is the New Testament asking its audience to ask the question, WWJD (What would Jesus Do)?
