Bible Talk begins a new book! In this episode, Alex chats with Jim and Sam about 1 Kings 1.
-
2 Samuel 23–24: On David's Final Words, the Temple's Future Address, and 1–2 Samuel's Messianic Finale (Ep. 110)
The end of 2 Samuel is odd: it portrays the king at cruising altitude and then describes his bumpy descent. What's going on here? Alex Duke chats with Jim Hamilton and Sam Emadi about the messianic finale of 2 Samuel 23–24.
-
2 Samuel 21–22: On a Reincarnated Goliath, a Chiastic Cheat Code, and David as the "New Israel" (Ep. 109)
We've entered 1–2 Samuel's epilogue, which rewinds the clock to mighty deeds of mighty men and gives us a chiastic cheat code that reveals some fascinating connections between King David and all that's gone before.
-
2 Samuel 19–20: On David’s Unraveling Reign, Joab’s Bloodthirsty Lawlessness, and Subtle Details from the Royal Court (Ep. 108)
By now, David’s reign is beginning to unravel. In fact, these chapters are beginning to remind us not of 1–2 Samuel, but of the book of Judges. Alex Duke chats with Jim Hamilton and Sam Emadi about 2 Samuel 19–20.
-
2 Samuel 17–18: On the Son's Demise, the Father's Despair, and the Hunt for Meaningful Connections (Ep. 107)
A father should never have to mourn the death of his son. But that's precisely what happens here. In this episode of Bible Talk, Alex Duke chats with Jim Hamilton and Sam Emadi about 2 Samuel 17–18.
-
2 Samuel 15:13–16:23: On David's Exodus Reversal and Accidentally Stealing from C. S. Lewis (Ep. 106)
A messenger comes to David and gives him bad news: "The hearts of the men of Israel have gone after Absalom." Then David flees—and in doing so he fails as both father and king.
Customer Reviews
Such a helpful addition to my devotional time
I’m a stay at home mother, and I just started listening to Bible Talk as I caught up with Priscilla talk, and what a helpful resource! Right now in the stage of life with little people around and not as much time or energy to devote to deep Bible study, I’ve found it so helpful to be listening to the podcasts alongside my Bible reading. I hope to read through the whole Old and New Testaments again this year, and this podcast has been a bolster/prod to do exactly that and glean even more from my daily readings. Thank you all so much for the careful work that you do in showing themes through the whole narrative of Scripture and not being afraid to tackle harder theological questions.
So helpful
This podcast is an incredible balance of fun and interesting, but also extremely instructive and informative. i’m very thankful for these guys and their dedication to God.
Thank you!
Just started this and - wow! So rich and in-depth. Looking forward to listening more as I make my way through the Bible again. Thank you!
