“Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth? Declare, if you have understanding. Who determined its measures, if you know? Or who stretched the line on it? Whereupon were its foundations fastened? Or who laid its cornerstone, when the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?" (Job 38:4-7)
The Book of Job is not the only biblical text featuring these mysteries sons of God. In this episode, Terry and I point out some of the most pivotal scriptures about God's sons and the divine council, and we explain why being monotheistic does not mean disregarding the existence of divine principalities.
This week's listener Q&A topics:
- Is it wrong to smoke a cigar? What about cigarettes?
- Is eating (certified) kosher a form of idolatry?
- What is the "gift for the common good?"
