The Bible (Unmuted)

During Eastertide, Matt takes listeners through a series of reflections on the resurrection of Christ. In this episode, the focus is on 1 Peter 1, specifically vv. 3-25. Here we get a glimpse into how early Christians thought of Jesus’ resurrection, specifically how it relates to the concept of the new birth and ethics. This passage reveals how the resurrection is not just a decisive past event or just the basis of our hope for the future – it is those things and more. The resurrection of Christ also has consequences for today, for it is the foundation for how we are to live presently as exiles in the world.

The concept of "faith" (Greek: pistis) is often understood by Christians as being nothing more than just individual belief -- such as, say, personal belief in God. But "faith" can't be reduced to just the individual aspect. Faith, for instance, is also depicted in the New Testament as a communal reality. But the early Christians weren't doing anything novel. To the contrary, they drew from the rich tradition of the Jews, whose emphasis on the community can be seen clearly in many Old Testament passages.

John Goldingay (PhD, University of Nottingham) joins The Bible (Unmuted) to chat about two important Old Testament prophetic books: Daniel and Ezekiel. Both texts are especially important for students of the New Testament to learn because they provide an immense amount of content that is utilized by the early Christian movement. This episode covers a lot of ground and will leave listeners/viewers with a lot of further questions for reflection and consideration.
