@pastorpauldrees: I think biblical scholarship is very important, especially when we operate outside of our normal area of expertise. This passage by itself would not prove anything, but it might lay some foundation for others later on to make the argument that parts of the early church recognized the sinfulness inherent to slavery. #progressiveclergy #pastorpauldrees #lutheran #elca

pastor! question! you said the Shepard of Hermas didn't "make it into the Bible". can you clarify on that? what other biblical books didn't "make it into the Bible"? is there a reason as to why this happened?

non canonical is an interesting way to put it. because to decide what is Canon, you have to look at who was responsible for deciding what was included and what wasn't, and then look again at transaltions

I should add, the passage in 'The Shepherd of Hermas' text I reference is found in 50:8. This could also be referring to some kind of debt forgiveness, but I'm not sure.

Pastor! Pastor! if you had to pick a single chapter that summarized Jesus' teachings the most what would you pick and why is it 1 Corinthians 13?

Hello! Not a scholar here, but I believe it’s referring to purchasing souls that have been afflicted instead of fields. Hope this helps! <3 (for legal purposes this is a joke I love your content)

Ok I have a question, I used to be atheist and super into science, now im Christian, can the idea of Evolution and the ideas in the Bible exist together? and if so how? if not how do we explain fossil records?

I'm actually curious as well. I would love a deep dive into passages that have been edited or removed.

Gregory of Nyssa was probably one of the first in his age to openly say that slavery is sinful because it is pride in its ultimate form

Hi pastor. I'm really curious to find out your opinion about the war in Ukraine and the US actions regarding it (like completely cutting off any support for Ukraine). Thank you!
