Listen "#42 Genesis 22 and the Binding of Isaac"
Episode Synopsis
Jodie and Matthew AND Faith (That’s right! We have a special guest this week) get together to talk about one of the best, if not the best, stories in the Bible: the binding and attempted sacrifice of Isaac by Abraham. There is a lot to unpack here, so instead of trying to unpack it all, we talk through the drama and story of Genesis 22, appreciating it as a text, immersing ourselves into the narrative and only occasionally (ok, often) getting distracted by other ways to look at this text, whether that be through Kierkegaard’s lens, rabbinic literature, art history, reception history, source criticism, or some other interpretive lens. Let us know your thoughts on this episode and how you want us to focus on this story next time!Works Referenced and Recommended Readings:Check out Faith’s other podcast: The Garden Podcast, associated with San Dieguito United Methodist Churchhttps://www.youtube.com/@TheGardenPodcast-k3v Follow our socials and reach out to us with thoughts or questions!Bluesky: @TheRELTreehouseInstagram: @TheReligiousTreehouseTikTok: @thereligioustreehouse Facebook: TRTEmail: [email protected]
