Super well done. Big fan of Michael Heiser, too, God rest his soul. You are good at seeing and using the symbolism of elements and actions. Jonathan Pageau's Symbolic World, if you haven't already followed him and his brother Matthieu, might be something to investigate. Profound, a bit like Heiser but also different. Keep it weird, friend.
I’m familiar with Pageau. Haven’t read Symbolic World, but I’ll have to add it to the list. Like Heiser said: “If it’s weird, it’s probably important.” Thanks man!
Brother, my soul was so encouraged by this! I really enjoyed how you connected Samson’s recruitment by God for God’s purposes with our (Church) role of heralding the Gospel. I also really enjoy your voice in your writing. Your tone makes bringing in ANE context accessible and enjoyable.
Drew, thank you! I appreciate the encouragement. God's design and messages to us through the Scriptures are so fascinating to me. He makes it easy to nerd out on the Bible and its ancient world! Thanks again for reading and sharing brother. 🙏
