  • Summary

  • This episode opens our new book study on Colossians. Disputes over the book’s authorship and date contribute directly to the major content issue of the book—the nature of the “Colossian heresy.” The so-called “Colossian heresy” is the label used by scholars to describe Paul’s theological opposition in the city and church of Colossae. Elements of the false teaching Paul confronted are reminiscent of Gnosticism. However, the mature Gnostic theologies known to scholars today did not take shape until the second century A.D. and thereafter. Other items Paul addresses are obviously related to Jewish opposition. Could these two theologies be related?

Very interesting

I’m enjoying your podcasts very much, but I have to say that your thrice repeating of the horrible phrase “there’s more than one way to skin a cat” really disrupted my focus on what you were saying (like fingernails on a chalkboard). Can you please consider not using that phrase anymore? It deeply diminishes what you are articulating, and you certainly don’t need that inutile saying to make your point. Thanks so much for your very interesting lessons, and I hope you’ll consider retiring that unappealing phrase.
