Exegetically Speaking

David Capes

Booking Overview

This is a short-form biblical studies interview podcast focused on biblical languages, exegesis, and how Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek illuminate Scripture; it typically features academic theologians, biblical-language scholars, and published authors. PR agencies could credibly pitch established professors, biblical scholars, manuscript experts, and authors with specialized expertise in biblical interpretation, though booking is likely medium difficulty because the show favors highly credentialed guests in a narrow academic field.

A Would-Be Solomonic Ruler, with Ron Lindo Jr.: Esther 1

September 28, 2026

Taking a hint from the Jewish Targums (Aramaic translations of the OT), Ron Lindo found that there are many allusions to 1 Kings 1-10, suggesting parallels between the Persian king, Ahasuerus (Xerxes), and Israel's King Solomon. Dr. Lindo is Assistant Professor of Christian Ministry at East Texas Baptist University. His publications include Literary Allusions in Esther: A Study on the ...

Seeing is Not Believing, Part III, with J. D. Atkins: Acts 1:3

September 21, 2026

Luke reports that Jesus, in the days following his resurrection but before his ascension, "presented himself alive... by many proofs, appearing to them during forty days and speaking about the kingdom of God" (ESV).

Dr. J. D. Atkins is Associate Professor of N...

The Church of God, the Continuation of Israel, with G. K. Beale: 1 Corinthians 1:2 and Nehemiah 13:1

September 14, 2026

The phrase, "the church of God," is used only by Paul in the NT, and occurs only once in the OT, in Nehemiah 13:1. Is Paul's use of the phrase under the influence of this OT passage, and, if so, what would the connection entail? Dr. Gregory Beale, long time Professor of New Testament at Wheaton College & Graduate School, and elsewhere, is currently Professor of New Testament at Reformed Theological Seminary in Dallas. He has written and edited or co-edited many books, including a commentary o...
