Ep. #291 - The Book of Sirach w/ Dr. Andre Villeneuve

What genre is the book of Sirach? Who wrote it? What are some of the issues concerning its inspiration? Why should Catholics still read it today? Dr. Andre Villeneuve joins us to discuss his latest commentary on this book of Scripture.  ----- The Classical Theism Podcast aims to defend Catholic Christian ideas in conversation. With the help of various guests, I defend three pillars of the Catholic Christian worldview: (1) the God of classical theism exists, (2) Jesus is our Messiah and Lord, and (3) He founded the Catholic Church. We place a strong emphasis on the first pillar, defending classical theism, drawing upon the work of Thomistic philosopher Dr. Edward Feser and many others.   John DeRosa www.classicaltheism.com/support   Support the show: Check out my book One Less God Than You: How to Answer the Slogans, Cliches, and Fallacies that Atheists Use to Challenge Your Faith >> www.classicaltheism.com/newbook   Support on Patreon to help keep the podcast going and to allow me to produce even more quality content: www.classicaltheism.com/support
