  • YHWH & Genocide

    Reflections on an Unpleasant Topic in the Old Testament

    Charlie Trimm —

To say the point bluntly, YHWHs commands to Israel in Deuteronomy 7:12 sound suspiciously like genocide: You must devote them to complete destruction (Deut. 7:12, ESV). The people of Israel followed those instructions when they conquered Jericho (Josh. 6:2021).

    Biblical Necessities? Or Theological Explanations?

    Kenneth Berding — 

    In recent years, I have been helped in my study of the Bible by employing an informal distinction between biblical necessities and theological explanations. Of all the classes I teach at Talbot, this distinction has been most helpful to students taking a class I teach called Pauline Theology: Romans. Since some of my students have benefitted from this distinction, I thought you might appreciate reading about it.

  • From the Dean

    Clinton E. Arnold — 

    Sundoulos served us well for many years. But not everyone knew what the term sundoulos meant. As much as I like Greek, that is the danger of quoting it in your sermons, Bible studies and magazine names. Sundoulos is a fellow servant, and our intent is to be just that. We want to continue to serve you in the ministries where God has called you.
