How Many Altars Could Israel Build? 06.03.2024 14:32
A common objection to the Bible is Exodus allegedly says Israel could build multiple altars for God, whereas Deuteronomy said Israel could only have one altar where sacrifices could be performed.

Are There Two Accounts of the Exodus Plagues? 28.02.2024 12:54

Did The Patriarchs Know Yahweh? 21.02.2024 17:34

Who Sold Joseph Into Slavery? 24.01.2024 27:39
A common argument is that Genesis has two stories of Joseph being sold into slavery. A later redactor stitched them together to form the current story, but is this really what happened?

Does the Story of Abraham Contradict Itself? 17.01.2024 17:23
Many critical scholars assert the account of Abraham in Genesis is hopelessly contradictory. Allegedly, there are too many duplicates to make sense of what is going on. But when we study these alleged duplicates we find they actually work together to form a coherent narrative. Don't forget to help us create more videos!

Are There Two Flood Stories in Genesis? 10.01.2024 23:17

Challenging The Documentary Hypothesis 27.12.2023 44:54
The documentary hypothesis is the view the five books of Moses (Pentateuch), were originally four separate sources of Israel's history. Alleged a redactor combined them into the present form of the Pentateuch, preserving most of the four sources. Proponents claim it is the best way to understand the history of the Pentateuch, but a lot of data challenges this assumption. I would like to thank the...
