Episode: Matt talks with Reed Carlson about conceptions of the person in the Old Testament and Second Temple literature, and specifically, the significance of the spirit/Spirit when thinking about the self. We talk about farts, the medium of Endor, election, charismatic spirituality, God's character in the Old Testament, and much more related to his book Unfamiliar Selves in the Hebrew Bible: Possession and other Spirit Phenomena (DeGruyter, 2022).
