Listen "Bible Q&A: Trinity, Jesus’ Language, & Septuagint vs. Hebrew Bible | Ask A Christian"
Episode Synopsis
Welcome to the Ask A Christian Podcast! In this episode, host Nate is fueled by coffee and a surprising amount of sleep, ready to tackle a stack of Bible Q&A that would make any theologian slightly sweat. We dive headfirst into the age-old debate about what language Jesus spoke—spoiler alert: it’s not English—and the textual conundrum of the Septuagint vs. the Hebrew Masoretic text. Which one should your pastor be using? We’ll break down the history and the theological implications, so you can sound smarter at your next church potluck. The conversation then inevitably leads to the eternal headache for Sunday School teachers: explaining the Trinity. If you’ve ever tried to use the "water/ice/steam" analogy and regretted it, you’ll find company here. We also tackle tough questions like: Is the Holy Spirit just chilling in the Old Testament, or is He making appearances? Are Christians still under the Mosaic Law, or is all that ancient history? (The short answer is not what your legalistic cousin wants to hear.) Is the Bible truly the inerrant, Word of God, or does it merely contain the Word of God? This is the perfect episode for anyone seeking depth over devotionals, or for those who simply want to know if they should be reading their Bible in Aramaic.
