Our Iron and Myth crew assembles to discuss a book written around the same time as the Book of 1 Enoch but with a different perspective on the ultimate solution to the problem of evil. Joining us is Doug Van Dorn ( DouglasVanDorn.com ), author of Giants: Sons of the Gods ; and Brian Godawa ( Godawa.com ), best-selling author of the theological thriller Cruel Logic , and two new novels based on the period of the Maccabees in Judea. Sadly, Dr. Judd Burton ( BurtonBeyond.net ) had technical issues logging on and wasn’t able to take part in the conversation. We discuss the Book of Jublilees’ unique perspective on biblical narratives, particularly Genesis and Exodus. We explore the theological implications of the text, its focus on the law, and the roles of angels and Watchers. They also examine the historical context of the book (especially as a reaction to Hellenization during the Maccabean period), its covenantal themes, and its significance in understanding ancient Jewish thought. While a study of Jubilees isn’t essential for Christians, it does offer insight into Jewish interpretations of Genesis and Exodus and helps give context to New Testament writings. Our new book The Gates of Hell is now available in paperback , Kindle , and as an audiobook at Audible ! Derek’s new book Destination: Earth , co-authored with Donna Howell and Allie Anderson, is now available in paperback , Kindle , and as an audiobook at Audible ! Follow us!
