What Is the Kingdom of God Anyway? (Pt. 1)

In this episode Dr. Nick Perrin, Franklin S. Dyrness Professor of Biblical Studies,  discusses how he defines the Kingdom in his new book, The Kingdom of God: A Biblical Theology (Zondervan, 2019). In particular, he makes the case that the kingdom is creationally engaged, universally focused, and eschatologically oriented. Nick Perrin

How Language Works

My colleague, Dr. Danny Carroll Rodas, Blanchard Professor of Old Testament at Wheaton College Graduate School, draws upon his bi-lingual upbringing (Spanish and English) to reflect upon how language works in a given culture. When it comes to biblical Hebrew, Dr. Carroll Rodas highlights three structures within Hebrew discourse: chiasm, emphasis, and acrostics. Danny Carroll

The Surprising Recipients of God’s Righteousness

Dr. Jonathan Linebaugh, Lecturer in New Testament at Cambridge and Fellow of Jesus College, helps us slow down and read Romans 3.21-26.  In particular, he considers the Greek verb, dikaioō (to justify, make right, rectify) at the beginning of 3.24. He asks who is one who justifies and who is justified. The surprising thing about the gospel is that in Christ God has come on the scene to make all things right and he begins by making right those who are sinners and who lack God’s glory.dr_j_a_linebaugh

Playing with Words

Michelle Knight (PhD, Wheaton College), Assistant Professor of Old Testament and Semitic Languages at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School, takes us through several passages to show how meaning is constructed sometimes by playing with words. In the Tower of Babel account (Genesis 11), the people build a tower to make a name (shem) for themselves but God foils their plan and makes Shem, the ancestor of Abraham. More examples await!    Michelle Knight
