Episode: Jon Levenson's Resurrection and the Restoration of Israel (Yale, 2006) is one of the books I (Matt) most recommend to my students and colleagues. It models biblical scholarship that is exegetically adept, holds the big picture, understands the history of interpretation, and is genuinely creative and convincing. Dru and I had the privilege of sitting down with Jon Levenson--a favorite on the show--to talk through this topic of vital importance to Jews and Christians.
Guest: Jon Levenson is Albert A. List Professor of Jewish Studies at Harvard Divinity School. He’s well known in the world of Biblical studies, but just in case you’re not familiar or have been living under a rock, he’s the author of numerous influential works, including Sinai and Zion, Creation and the Persistence of Evil, The Death and Resurrection of the Beloved Son, The Love of God and others. Read him!
