    About this Episode

    In this week's podcast, we had the privilege of talking to Dr. Tremper Longman, a distinguished biblical scholar. We talked about the veracity of the story of Noah's ark. We had plenty of questions: Was there a worldwide flood as the Bible describes it? Do apparent historical inaccuracies undermine the authority of the Bible? How does our understanding of the Ancient Near East (ANE) change our understanding of Genesis? This is a don't-miss episode!
