Description

Episode 178: Can We (and Should we) Harmonize Synoptic Texts (John 2)?

Does Jesus cleanse the temple twice? How do we navigate seemingly conflicting accounts of the same event in the Bible? While harmonization may be a necessary step in understanding how the Bible provides "a window" into history, it can also distract us from seeing "the portrait" painted by each particular text. The faculty discuss the tension involved in this dynamic and how these issues ultimately reinforce the trustworthiness of God's word.
