The Cold-blooded Slaughter of Women & Children, Can it be defended? – Jono, Ross, & Ezra
Matot & Masei – wrapping up the Book of Numbers with a double portion that’s as provocative as it is puzzling. From the complex laws of vows and their echoes in the New Testament to the grim account of holy war and its troubling arithmetic, no subject is off limits. Why does a chapter once seen as narrative now read like a manifesto? What does the Bible mean by herem—and can it be defended?

Join us as we ask hard questions, follow ancient paths, and trace the dividing line between devotion and destruction.
