Interview with Dr. Gordon Johnston: Old Testament Issues

Were there really camels in Egypt and is the OT Law sexist? In this episode I interview Dr. Gordon Johnston who is a professor of Old Testament studies at Dallas Theological Seminary. When I was in Dr. Johnston's Hebrew class, I became fascinated with his enthusiasm about the reality of camels during the time of the patriarchs. We also talk about the Old Testament law concerning foreign women and generally about archeological evidence for biblical events.

Trigger Warning: there is broad, non-detailed discussion of rape, forced marriage, and suicide starting in 00:19:30.
