Bonus Episode: Reading Numbers Like a Historian, with Dr. Mark Chavalas
Joining us today is historian and professor Dr. Mark Chavalas. His research over the past decade has focused on inter-connections between ancient Mesopotamia along areas as Anatoly, Iran, Egypt, Palestine, etc. And what he brings to the table is a focus from a bronze-Syrian age to the third millennium.
And all that means to me is: How do we think about the Old Testament from a Syrian-Babylonian perspective? How does a Historian read this text?
Join us as Dr. Chavalas helps us to make sense of this book we call Numbers.
