How Paul Taught the Priesthood of Believers (Without Naming It) | Danillo Augusto Santos
Paul never uses the word "priesthood"—yet the concept runs through his letters. How did he teach it without naming it?In this episode of Exploring the Language of Scripture, Daniel Mikkelsen sits down with Danillo Augusto Santos, New Testament lecturer and PhD scholar specialising in the priesthood of believers in Paul's letters, to explore one of Pauline theology's most overlooked mysteries.Paul's contemporaries—both Jewish and Gentile—were intimately familiar with priesthood. The Jerusalem Temple still stood. Pagan temples dominated cities. Yet Paul deliberately avoids using the Greek words ἱερεύς (hiereus, "priest") or ἱεράτευμα (hierateuma, "priesthood...

Dust Bunny | Mads Mikkelsen auf Monsterjagd

Außerdem geht’s um die Chemie zwischen den Figuren, die Bildsprache des Films und darum, wie „Dust Bunny“ gleichzeitig verspielt, unheimlich und erstaunlich emotional daherkommt.Ist das am Ende nur ein Einstiegsfilm für Jugendliche, od...

The Truth About Jesus' Physical Appearance in The Gospels | John Nelson
Why don't the Gospels describe what Jesus looked like?In this episode of Exploring the Language of Scripture, Daniel Mikkelsen sits down with John Nelson, New Testament scholar and author of Jesus' Physical Appearance, to explore one of the Bible's intriguing mysteries.Ancient biographies were obsessed with physical appearance—using it to reveal character through physiognomy. Yet the Gospel writers, who clearly knew Greco-Roman biographical conventions, deliberately omit any description of what Jesus physically looked like. Why?John walks through the Greek text, ancient biographical conventions, and Jewish Scripture to show this wasn't ac...

What Did Paul Really Mean by a Spiritual Body in 1 Corinthians 15.36–58? | Daniel Mikkelsen
What did Paul mean when he spoke about a “spiritual body” — and what is the resurrection body actually made of in 1 Corinthians 15?In this episode of Exploring the Language of Scripture, Daniel Mikkelsen — founder of NT Greek Tutoring and PhD candidate in New Testament — works carefully through one of Paul’s most debated passages, 1 Corinthians 15:36–58. Questions about the resurrection body often arise from Paul’s contrast between the “natural body” and the “spiritual body”, and from his claim that “flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God”.Two dominant interpretations of this passage both affirm bodily r...

Reading Leviticus This Way Makes It Deeper | Christian Canu Højgaard
Reading Leviticus this way makes it deeper.
