Episode Synopsis

Dr. Stephen Dempster (PhD, University of Toronto) is Professor of Religious Studies at Crandall University. Dr. Dempster is the author of numerous academic articles on the Old Testament canon and biblical theology. He has also authored two books, a forthcoming commentary on Micah in the Two Horizons Old Testament Commentary Series. In this episode, we discuss his book, Dominion & Dynasty: A Theology of the Hebrew Bible and how to read the Old Testament as a complete narrative rather than a hodge podge of books. We talk about the literary view of scripture, the original order and structure of the Hebrew tankah (which differs from the Masoretic), when the exile ended, dominion being usurped at the fall, the Torah, the former prophets, the latter prophets, and the writings.
