Keeping the bird icon as long as I can. What does “blaze your glory” mean, by the way? Is this place going down like the Hindenburg?

My latest podcast episode for @NewBooksNetwork @NewBooksBible is with James Crossley & @robertjmyles on "Jesus: A Life in Class Conflict" (@Zer0Books, 2023). Thoroughly enjoyed their company and their take on the "historical-materialist" Jesus! newbooksnetwork.com/jesus-2
Newly arrived! Really pleased to see @JoshuaSchachte2 in print… I sense a podcast in our future. (Unrelated Cassian for scale.)
🎙PODCAST! The featured "Book of the Day" on the @NewBooksNetwork is @AdlerYonatan's "The Origins of Judaism: An Archaeological-Historical Reappraisal" (@yalepress, 2022). newbooksnetwork.com/yonatan-…
I enjoyed this conversation with @AdlerYonatan immensely; among other topics, we covered his book's implications for Biblical Studies—not just for HB/OT scholars, but also in NT, where we often take the antiquity of traditions for granted.

🎙A podcast for your Monday! Listen to my recent conversation with @evandeneykel for @NewBooksNetwork @NewBooksBible on his book, "The Magi" (@Fortresspress, 2022), an excellent example of public-facing, accessible biblical scholarship. newbooksnetwork.com/eric-van…
Enjoyed this delightful conversation with @ChristophHeilig for @NewBooksNetwork exploring Paul’s relationship, if we can call it that, with the Roman empire. Listen here: newbooksnetwork.com/the-apos…

I loved this picture so much I redrew it
my favorite medieval story is the one about how alexander the great wanted to see the world, so he built a contraption to dive underwater and brought his cat and chicken to explore the ocean with him :)
