Does the Story of Abraham Contradict Itself?

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.

Are There Two Flood Stories in Genesis?

This podcast discusses the claim that Genesis 6-9 contains two flood accounts. It challenges the idea by exploring the unity of the Genesis flood account and the intentional use of repetition and cultural patterns. The podcast also examines the intervals, numbers, and discrepancies in the flood account and offers a charitable interpretation. Overall, it argues against the hypothesis of two separate sources and highlights the unity of the flood account in Genesis.

Challenging The Documentary Hypothesis

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.
