Marked by Covid Interview
26/08/2022 Duración: 59minIn this weeks show our guest is Kristin Urquiza who co-founded Marked by Covid non-profit organization. Ms. Urquiza’s father died from COVID after trusting Arizona Governor Doug Ducey’s claims that “it was safe to resume normal activities” in June, as the state surged with COVID cases and her childhood neighborhood of Maryvale — a low-income community with a large population of immigrants and Latinx residents — recorded some of the worst numbers on the planet. So we invited a reporter to his funeral and published the first Honest Obituary, which told the unvarnished truth about his death and held public servants like Ducey to account.The story and obituary went viral, and within days, Arizona Governor Doug Ducey was asked about her father at a press conference by a reporter from The Washington Post. A few days later, Trump was seen wearing a mask in public for the first time. Since then, dozens of Marked By COVID Activists have become leaders in their own hometowns; and many have launched local hubs to build

The Hebrew Prophets: A Jewish Perspective Book Reading by Joseph Balog
29/06/2022 Duración: 34minIn this week show we have a special presentation of the new audiobook by yours truly. Narrated by Joseph Balog. This book explores the concept of prophecy in Judaism as defined by two great figures of Jewish history. Moses Maimonides and Abraham Joshua Heschel are two influential scholars who have impacted the many streams of Judaism. A simplistic dichotomy could be made between their two perspectives labeling Maimonides as a rational philosopher and Heschel as a mystical one. Both the study of Jewish prophecy and the approaches of both of the scholars are complex topics, but not impossible to decipher. The nature of revelation is also part of this discussion. To some scholars Maimonides' and Heschel's perspectives of God seem to be in conflict, one being Aristotelian while the other being a more traditional one in line with the Bible and the Talmud.With these factors in mind and based on the available data my book will support the following contention: Maimonides' and Heschel's different

A Jewish Trinity? Boyarin/Heiser are mistaken about the concept of God in the Bible
10/05/2022 Duración: 54minIn this week’s episode we discuss the anachronism of “a Jewish Trinity” proposed by Daniel Boyarin and promoted by Michael Heiser. This idea retrograde into Israelite/biblical theology by these two scholars. We address this by comparing Jewish and Christian approaches to describing or defining God. Both authors point to Cannanite Theology to support their claims. Talmudist Daniel Boyarin in his Jewish Gospels book and Dr. Michael Heiser in his presentations based on his dissertation titled “The Divine Council in Late Canonical and non-Canonical Second Temple Jewish Literature.” Both suppose that both ancient linguistics and biblical mysticism point to a trinity-like concept that existed in pre-first century theological ideas found in the Bible. Frank Morris and I explore the traditions that lead to the two powers in heaven theology and how the early church fathers developed theological concepts, which could be considered to be inconsistent with the ancient Israelite worldview portrayed in the Bible.Mystic-Ske
