Bill, John, and Josh tackle your questions in this ninth Q&A episode. We discuss revival, the Trinity, and different hermeneutical tools that Christians have used over the centuries. We also explore how Paul uses the Hebrew Bible, and conclude with some thoughts on some common critiques on the historicity of the Tanakh. 

Show notes:

• Does Matthew 24:14 describe an end-time revival or awakening? (2:13)
• What do you think about common medieval exegesis methods and how they relate to a first-century apocalyptic worldview? (5:03)
• Is Paul’s quote of Psalm 68 in Ephesians 4 proof of realized eschatology? (15:30)
• What are your thoughts on the Trinity from a first-century viewpoint? (22:25)
• How do we know the account of God’s faithfulness within the Tanakh is actually reliable? (32:47)
