Genesis 12-50: Q + R

from BibleProject Hosted by Tim Mackie & Jon Collins

This summer we are re-releasing audio of a Youtube Q+R series we did on Old Testament books. This week we are in the book of Genesis. We cover a lot of questions in this episode like why would God ask for a child sacrifice from Abraham and Isaac, when he forbids child sacrifice? Thank you to all of our supporters! You are so meaningful to us! Q's and Timestamps: Genesis 12-end How do you approach the theme that God’s approach to solving the mess, is a mess itself? Why does God keep working with screwed up people? (0:56) Who is “the Angel of the Lord” in Genesis? (9:07) Why would God request child sacrifice of Abraham/Isaac? (14:37) Why is Isaac limited in what he can bless Esau with after he blessed Jacob earlier? (21:27) Who is the author of Genesis? (27:38) Is Joseph in Genesis a type of Christ? (32:06) What is the deal with Melchizedek? (38:32) Links: Original video conversation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-r-lOaDXrFE Genesis videos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KOUV7mWDI34&t=156s & https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GQI72THyO5I Additional Resources: Tim's lecture on the origins of the Bible. www.timmackie.com Music Credits: Defender Instrumental by Rosasharn Music
