Is God a genocidal maniac?? OT scholar Dr. John Walton is back on the show, this time to decipher the OT’s stories of Israel’s apparent genocidal rampages against the Canaanites and others. Are we worshipping a lunatic? Or are we missing something in these stories? Fun for the whole family! (Audio Only)

This episode pretty much answered the criticisms of new athiests about God.
You really gave good answers.
Dear Phil,
Is it too big.of.a.stretch tO compare Donald Trump’s retro and tactics to that of Adolphus Hitler? He also appealed to the cultural economy, and the disparate need of the people for change. He targeted the Jews, and Trump targets the Mexican and Muslim community.
Is there a written resource where Dr. Walton explores his explanation of “harem” and the idea of “rezoning the land”? I have searched for a book or article but haven’t been able to locate anything. Thanks so much.
Not yet, but it’s coming! Dr. Walton and his son were working on an article, but now it is expanding into a book. It will be a bit, though.
Looking forward to it. Thank you for the quick reply!
