This is the introduction to an interesting lecture I saw on-line. In this clip, Dr. John Walton describes the necessity of reading the Scriptures in the context of what the authors believed to be true, not what we do.
Here is the link to Dr. Walton’s full presentation: https://youtu.be/1kOflP3eLSI
From what I have seen, he and Dr. Michael Heiser definitely appear to be cut from the same cloth. I can certainly appreciate and respect their intellectual honesty in showing that the Biblical authors readily accepted and promoted the same cosmology shared by pretty much the whole ANE, which is totally different cosmology from what we have today. However, I can’t accept their Doctrine of Accommodation/”the Bible is a book of theology not science” rationale for dismissing what they know it actually says.
What I am agreeing with in this video is the fact that we MUST read the words with the understanding the HOLY SPIRIT INSPIRED AUTHORS had, not what we wish to impose upon the text based on what we claim to understand.

Just saw and ad here in youtube that says , a professor from a christian university, that the bible is poetic. What Bullshit this professor is.

B as in B, S as in S
Science is made by "Man" Man will lie.
God created the law of the creation and the way to live. God don't lie.
The Bible is the knowledge from God to man.
you can not believe in globe earth and trust in God.
If you believe in globe earth, you believe in science.
