Why the Bible Began (with Mike Thigpen)
Description
Usually we ask the question of how we got our Bible, but we rarely consider the question of why we got the Bible? Why did the various Biblical authors commit their contributions to writing and preservation? We’ll answer these questions and more and will look at a controversial new book, Why the Bible Began: An Alternative History of Scripture and Its Origins, by Professor Jacob Wright, of Candler School of Theology at Emory University — we’ll discuss with this with our former colleague and good friend, OT scholar, Dr. Mike Thigpen.
Dr. J. Michael Thigpen is Professor of Old Testament at Phoenix Seminary and former Executive Director of the Evangelical Theological Society.
