Reasoning Through the Bible
Taking a cue from Paul, Reasoning Through the Bible is an expository style walk through the Scriptures that tells you what the Bible says. Reviewing both Old and New Testament books, as well as topical subjects, the hosts methodically show how Scripture is one cohesive story. Critical Thinking with a little bit of theology and apologetics and you have what this podcast is about. Just like Paul on Mars Hill, Christianity today must address woke, deconstruction, and progressive Christianity, all topics that are addressed if we go purposefully through the Bible. Join Glenn and Steve weekly on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday as they reason with you through the Bible.
Reasoning Through the Bible
The Scandal of Judah || Genesis 38:1-30 || Session 59 || Verse by Verse Bible Study
Can moral integrity withstand the test of complex family dynamics and cultural double standards? Journey with us on this verse by verse Bible study episode of Reasoning Through the Bible as we uncover the intricate layers of Genesis 38, a chapter brimming with moral quandaries and divine judgments. Witness Judah's controversial departure from his brothers and his entanglement with a Canaanite woman. Through the grim fates of his sons Ur and Onan, we explore the sovereignty of God in punishing evil and the profound importance of living a godly life. We'll consider the critical lessons on divine patience and mercy that emerge from these tragic events. We then dive into the tumultuous story of Tamar and Judah, where themes of deception and accountability come to light. Finally, discover the significant lineage of Tamar's twins, Perez and Zerah, and their pivotal role in the lineage leading to the Messiah. This episode promises to be a thought-provoking exploration of one of the Bible's most challenging chapters.
