In this episode of the Grace Notes Podcast 🎙️, we dive deep into the Christian doctrine of the Trinity—this time, from a surprising angle: a Jewish perspective. Drawing inspiration from biblical verses, ancient Jewish interpretations, and the compelling insights of Professor Benjamin Sommer, we uncover how the Hebrew Bible hints at a "fluidity" in God's nature. Could this dynamic oneness, as seen in the Hebrew Scriptures, help bridge the gap between Jewish monotheism and the Christian understanding of the Trinity?
Through plural language in Genesis, the personification of Wisdom, and ancient Aramaic Targum interpretations, we explore how the Old Testament lays the groundwork for the New Testament’s depiction of Jesus and the Holy Spirit as sharing divine attributes. Together, we uncover how this perspective reveals a relational and profound expression of God's love. Whether you're curious about theology or looking to deepen your understanding of the Trinity, this episode is a must-watch!
