Hey everybody, I'm Tim McEy and this is my podcast Exploring My Strange Bible.

I am a card carrying Bible history and language nerd who thinks that Jesus of Nazareth is

utterly amazing and worth following with everything that you have.

On this podcast I'm putting together the last ten years worth of lectures and sermons

where I've been exploring the strange and wonderful story of the Bible and how it invites

us into the mission of Jesus and the journey of faith.

And I hope this can be helpful for you too.

I also help start this thing called the Bible Project.

We make animated videos and podcasts about all kinds of topics in Bible and theology.

You can find those resources at thebibelproject.com.

With all that said, let's dive into the episode for this week.

Alright, well with this episode we're going to finish out this multi part series we've done

exploring the New Testament letter to the Hebrews.

So if you haven't been listening to all the ones before this, this is kind of a culminating

passage and culminating teaching of the whole series.

And so I encourage you to listen to the ones that have come before.

We're going to explore a passage in the second to last chapter from Hebrews chapter 12.

And it brings to a close kind of the theological and pastoral challenge that this pastor has been

offering these early Christians.

And he tells a tale of two mountains, what I call it.

He's going to compare and contrast the experience that the Israelites had as they all camped out

at the foot of Mount Sinai after escaping out of slavery in Egypt.
