Description
This podcast brings Old Testament scholarship from the ivory towers of academia into the common language of every podcast listener. I break down the technical conversations and methods of analyzing the Old Testament so that everyone can be involved in the academic conversations about what the Old Testament is, where it came from, and what its message is. Each episode I look at the life and academic contributions of one modern Old Testament scholar to understand how their ideas developed and show their impact on our understanding of the Old Testament.

Conyers Middleton
2022/02/21
Conyers Middleton wrote three rebuttals to Waterland and Tindal. He took a middle ground approach critiquing both Tindal's optimism about a pure rule of natural law in the past and Waterland's insistence on special revelation as necessary for the incomplete revelation of natural law.
Daniel Waterland
2022/02/07
Daniel Waterland wrote a book refuting the views of Matthew Tindal. He argued that special revelation was known to all people in all times through the efforts of Israelites, Jews, and Christians so everyone had access to the necessary salvific message.
Matthew Tindal
2022/01/24
Tindal believed that the Bible was only part of the natural religion, and a flawed retelling of the natural religion at that. He proposed allegorizing certain parts of the Bible in order to go back to primitive religion that was more pure than the present forms.
