Barney and Austin interview Old Testament Professor Iain Provan, who takes a different view to our previous guests on the historical reliability of the Bible. For him, there is every reason to trust the Bible's authors, and no reason not to trust them. Provan also suggests that:

  • The very idea of history comes from the Old Testament
  • There is no 'neutral' way of reading the Bible: there are Christian or non-Christian ways of reading.
  • Jesus gave us these texts, and that is why we read them.

Tune in for more insights on a developing conversation.
