Faith Adjacent: Archaeology Corner
Get those brushes and shovels ready because this month we’re taking you behind the scenes into The Bible Binge Seminary to hear a very special conversation from our Faith Adjacent Book Club on Biblical Archaeology with Dr. Jodi Magness. Dr. Magness is a professor of early Judaism at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and a professional archaeologist who actually digs stuff up. You’ll want to take extensive notes as we explore her work at both Huqoq and Masada, how to ask questions that archaeology can answer, and most importantly ancient bathroom practices.
