About this listen

The WSB Show podcast is a weekly released show (on Tuesdays) designed for those who are interested in learning the Bible from a Hebraic or Jewish point-of-view. Your host Scott Whittle is on a personal endeavor to learn and teach Torah from kosher Jewish sources and biblical scholars. However, the goal is to help people establish a new level of understanding of the Scriptures through the lens of Judaism and scholarship. The task is to keep this ancient document accessible and to understand it’s original context. Currently, we are doing a systemic study through Genesis (Bereshit). In the future, we anticipate conducting guest interviews and product/book reviews to help you strengthen your understanding of the Scriptures. This is the official podcast for the continually developing website Whittle Study Bible.© 2020-23 Christianity Judaism Ministry & Evangelism Spirituality

  • 005: Genesis 1 Commentary: 7 Days of Creation, Pt.3, Day 4, Commentary on Bereshit
    Dec 15 2020
    In the first phase of creation, we saw the words of God create the inanimate world which included vegetation. Beginning with the 4th day we see the second phase of creation occurring as it parallels and complements the first three days. In this study, we investigate day 4 of creation. We begin by looking at the golden thread. Then we discover how day 4 connects to day 1. By looking at the text we will see the three purposes for the sun, moon, and stars. Once more we will compare our story to the epic of Gilgamesh and other texts in the Tanak.

    The golden thread of Genesis 1 continues! We will see how it flows through days 2 and 3 of the creation. Also in this lesson, we will discuss the firmament and how the Hebrew text reveals an answer the English translations totally miss. We explore the age old question, "why is day two not deemed as good." As we progress to day 3, we will look at the epic of Gilgamesh and how it compares to the Torah story of creation and much more.

    The creation story of Genesis 1 & 2 is very familiar to us today. The ancients would have seen and understood it different than we do. In the ancient world, the creation section would have been common discussion among the learned and wise men. This is still true today. However, this question for our study is how would the ancient's understood the creation story?
