Have you ever wondered about the many names of God in Hebrew and Greek, and their meanings? Join us for our first live show, where we dive deep into the fascinating world of the Christian religion from a religious and historical perspective. Together, we'll explore the significance of names like Elohim, Adonai, and Yahweh, and shed light on the complexities of gender in the Bible.
Our conversation takes a captivating turn as we discuss unique names of God from the Jewish and Christian faith, and how other nations and tribes used unique names for their own gods. We also examine the stories behind the creation poem and the title "Son of God" in the Bible, tracing it back to the Ides of March and the rise of the Roman Empire. Discover how Jesus was flipping the script when he called himself "Son of God" and how this was not only an interior spiritual work, but also an exterior political jab at the Caesar of the day.
