Covering: Having and Sharing

Posted on July 26, 2026 by ehurst

A question that comes up from time to time: What’s the deal with ghosts? This is a mystery only because western mythology is so bad in general and just awful on this question. Context: The created natural world is alive, … Continue reading →

Melchizedek Part 1

Posted on July 25, 2026 by ehurst

For once, I’m not walking with Heiser very closely. I’ll be paralleling his podcast series on Melchizedek, but relying on studies from other authors. The difficulty I have here is that, if you really need footnotes and references, I no … Continue reading →

The Damage Is Done

Posted on July 24, 2026 by ehurst

They Don’t Belong Anymore

Posted on July 20, 2026 by ehurst

The fundamental Hebrew thinking about sin is all about communion. If you scroll through Leviticus, you notice that blood sacrifice does not cleanse the sinner. Rather, a ritual sacrifice is necessary to decontaminate the sacred space where God comes to … Continue reading →

Responding to Questions

Posted on July 13, 2026 by ehurst

The Parable of Simulation

Posted on July 11, 2026 by ehurst

Posted on July 9, 2026 by ehurst

There are three bills in Congress that should have your attention: National Defense Appropriations Act (NDAA) for 2027, National Intelligence Act (NIA) for 2027, and the Jewish American Security Act (JASA). Those three together represent a surrender of the US … Continue reading →

The Gift of Truth

Posted on July 8, 2026 by ehurst

Talking about Unchurch?

Posted on July 7, 2026 by ehurst
