About this listen

At the end of our previous episode we were looking at how the authors of Biblical texts often wrote down words that had been handed down to them through many generations of oral tradition and how the concept many times became distorted, thus also distorting God’s true nature. They added characteristics about God that they had borrowed from the idols of other nations and not what they themselves had actually known and experienced God to be.

It would have been much easier for us if the people who wrote down these ancient texts had not often times seen God the way they did the other gods they had come into contact with. It would also have helped if the people who wrote some of these stories down for us to read concerning Yahweh and the history of Israel and Christianity, had truly had a better and more intimate relationship with God.
