1 Samuel: The Death of Saul and Samuel Comes Back to Life

I have a doctorate in the philosophy of religion and many of my articles have been published in peer-reviewed journals. I have taught college for about 30 years. My undergraduate degree was in Ancient Languages, and I have a two Master’s Degrees, besides the doctorate.

In the studies of Biblical books presented here, I focus on historicity (how much actually happened that we can verify) and theology (what ideas about God and gods are being used). I try to incorporate the findings of modern Biblical scholarship.

I believe the investigation of religion can be enlightening for anyone, regardless of belief. My own position is that all religions have something to contribute, although a critical and historical approach is needed.
