In the second part of the "Are you sure you know whats that verse means?" series, Nick Shalna presents a prominent ancient Jewish view of God's promise to Abraham in Genesis 15.

How should we understand being made "heirs of the cosmos"?Most recent episode on Babel:https://theuniversenextdoor.buzzsprout.com/235413/14774037-what-definitely-didn-t-happen-at-babel-response-to-kristi-burke-series-pt-1How Were Stars Viewed in the Bible?https://theuniversenextdoor.buzzsprout.com/235413/14595788-were-stars-viewed-as-angels-in-the-bibleThis episode is based on a series which is based on a series of Michael Heiser by David Burnett:https://drmsh.com/category/biblical-theology-doctrine/theosis-1/Support the show
