16. The Light of the World - John E8

You’re listening to another episode of the Redeeming the Time Podcast! In this episode, Tyler discusses the theme of “Light” in John’s gospel and how it relates to prior biblical metaphors.

 

Notes

Tyler referenced a guy named “Tim Mackie” in this episode, but didn’t say who he was. For those of you who don’t recall from previous episodes of the show, Tim Mackie is a scholar whom Tyler is minorly obsessed with, and one of the guys behind The Bible Project.

The article which Tyler referenced vaguely near the beginning was the Master’s Thesis by Scott Davis which can be read at https://rts.edu/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/Davis_Scott_Thesis_20180511.pdf

Tyler was wrong about the writing of Jeremiah; it was written in the 7th century B.C. He also managed to be wrong about the writing of Isaiah as well (go figure, you get a 50/50 chance and you’ll always guess wrong on the internet…). Isaiah was written prior to Jeremiah, in the 8th century B.C.
