You're listening to the Bible for Normal People, the only God ordained podcast on the internet.

I'm Pete Ends. And I'm Jared Byis.

Hey everybody, welcome to this episode of the Bible for Normal People. This is a reissue episode

of episode 37, way back in season two with Cynthia Schaefer Elliott, an archaeologist, and we're

really excited to announce that Cynthia is teaching a course for us here at the Bible for Normal People.

And that course is called Everyday Life in Ancient Israel. Here's a subtitle, listen to this,

a journey through everyday life in the ancient world and why it matters for how we read the Bible.

You better does. And we're going to be looking at things like, you know, what does everyday life

in ancient Israel actually look like? And what kind of religion, for example, did the people

actually practice based on archaeological evidence? And here's an important issue, how were

households and family roles determined in ancient Israel, again, based on archaeological evidence?

And I know you're saying, Pete, tell us when? Tell us when? Well, it begins October 6th.

It runs for four consecutive Tuesday nights from 830 to 10. And that is Eastern time folks. And I

can't stress that enough, Eastern time. It's not our fault that the nations divide into four

time zones. So 830 to 10 Eastern time. And for that time, you're going to hear an hour lecture and

a nice hefty Q&A session with Cynthia afterwards. And it's just going to be a blast. And here's the

best part is if all the rest wasn't good enough, this is a pay what you can course. No one's going

to be turned away for what they can or can't pay. It's what you can. Normally, a course like this

would be like $99, but it's pay what you can. And we mean that. Yay us. And for that pay what you can

price you get, of course, of course, itself, the Q&A and all the life course with the Q&A. And also,

you can access all the slides and you get a downloadable audio file for each week's lecture.

So that's pretty cool. If you want more information, absolutely please go to pdens.com forward slash
