Episode Details

Most Christians know the stories. Adam and Eve. Noah and the Flood. Babel. Abraham. The Nephilim. David and Goliath. Jesus casting out demons. Pentecost. But what if these aren't disconnected supernatural events? In this episode of Broadcasting Seeds, Bennett Tanton follows a thread that begins in Genesis and doesn't end until Revelation: a biblical cosmic war involving rebellion, nations, spiritual powers, allegiance, territory, judgment, and reclamation. It starts with a footnote in Deuteronomy 32:8. Some biblical manuscripts read that God divided the nations according to the number of the “sons of God,” followed immediately by the declaration that Jacob would be the Lord's own portion. From there, we follow the story through Genesis 3, Genesis 6, Babel, Psalm 82, Daniel 10, the Rephaim, Bashan, Azazel, Caesarea Philippi, the Gates of Hades, the crucifixion, the spirits in prison, Pentecost, Ephesians 6, and Revelation. The question is bigger than whether demons or spiritual beings exist. What if much of the Bible is telling the story of a kingdom taking back territory that had fallen under rebellious powers? And if that's the story Scripture is telling, what does spiritual warfare actually look like for us now? This episode also draws a hard line between what the biblical text directly says, what comes from Second Temple Jewish tradition such as 1 Enoch, and where interpretation begins. Broadcasting Seeds explores the Bible, spiritual warfare, supernatural phenomena, ancient history, high strangeness, and the questions many churches rarely talk about.
