  • #191 Malachi, Part 7
    10 Nov 2026

    In this episode, Matthew discusses how Malachi admonishes Israel for not bringing in "tithes and offerings" as part of the required contributions. What is this all about? What scriptural references from the Torah can help clarify what Malachi is talking about? +++

  • #190: Malachi, Part 6
    3 Nov 2026

    In Malachi 3:1, we see the term "messenger" used twice: (1) the "my messenger" who prepares the way for God and (2) the "messenger of the covenant." Does "messenger" in both instances refer to the same person or to different persons? How does the chiastic structure of this passage help us answer that question? And how does determining the identity of the "messenger" in both instances help us understand the larger Jewish narrative that Malachi is assuming?

  • #189 Malachi, Part 5
    27 Oct 2026

    In this episode, Matthew finishes up the second chapter of Malachi. Here we see Malachi draw from the Torah as part of the critique against specific sinful actions taking place in the community of Israel. The Shema, especially, is used to confront faithlessness among God’s covenant people.
