Plodcast Ep. 96 - So What Do We Think About Tariffs, From Silence to Song, Apaideutos

This week Pastor Wilson talks about how we should think about tariffs. He also talks about Peter Leithart’s wonderful book, “From Silence to Song”, calling this small book a “treasure trove”. Pastor Wilson finishes things off with a look at the word apaideutos. Happy plodding!   Show Notes:   So What Do We Think About Tariffs: President Trump thinks tariffs are great and something we should be doing more of Trump is not levying tariffs, he is threatening to levy tariffs in order to get concessions Threatening tariffs can lead to an increase in free trade   From Silence to Song: Wonderful book written by Peter J. Leithart This book is about the tabernacle of David In the tabernacle of the wilderness there is no record of music being a part of worship But David introduces music into the equation Leithart also shows that the tabernacle of David was very attractive to Gentiles For those who love Biblical theology, this small book is a treasure trove   Apaideutos: Rendered as unlearned Found in 2 Tim. 2:23 In Prufrock, T.S. Eliot warns us against “tedious arguments” The apostle Paul was aware of them also The servant of the Lord must not get dragged into stupid and unprofitable quarrels
