In this episode of the Enter the Bible podcast, hosts Katie Langston and Kathryn Schifferdecker welcome retired Charles T. Haley Professor of Old Testament Theology and Chair of the Biblical Studies Department at Princeton Theological Seminary, Dennis T. Olson to explore the significance of the Sabbath commandment for Christian believers. 

In our season seven finale, we explore the rich meaning of Sabbath rest—its roots, its connection to Jesus’ life, and its relevance today. From the shift to Sunday worship to the challenges of finding rest in a fast-paced world, we discuss how the Sabbath is both a gift for flourishing and a practice of trust. Drawing on biblical stories like the manna in the wilderness, we reflect on how embracing the Sabbath can bring joy, community, and deeper reliance on God’s provision.

In this episode of the Enter the Bible Podcast, we tackle a listener-submitted question that explores the complex relationship between early Christianity and Jewish identity. Drawing from Paul's writings and the historical context of the early church, we uncover the tensions and unity between Jewish and Gentile believers. Learn how faith practices can foster joy and community, the significance of humility for Gentile Christians, and how Ephesians 2 calls for breaking down barriers.

Original Question Submitted:  

"How does Scripture, particularly Galatians, Acts 15, and Ephesians 2:15, address the question of whether Jewish believers in Jesus were expected to stop observing Jewish practices, given the clear teaching that Gentile believers did not have to adopt them?"
