Genesis 22:12-Exploring Abraham's Test: Omniscience and Faith
Manage episode 446757591 series 3531541
In this episode of the Bible Difficulties and Answers podcast, host Lance Smith delves into a thought-provoking question from Genesis 22: Did God really need to test Abraham to know his response? Join us as we explore whether this passage challenges the notion of God's omniscience and what it reveals about divine knowledge.
Through four key perspectives, we unpack the theological implications of Abraham's test. Was it a demonstration of faith for Abraham, a revelation for others, or an example of God's anthropomorphic language? Discover how these interpretations offer insight into understanding God's perfect knowledge.
Tune in next week as we tackle the archaeological mystery of the sons of Heth in Hebron, circa 2050 BC. Don't miss this intriguing dive into ancient history!
