Redemption E3 — So far in this series, we’ve explored the theme of redemption in the Eden story and in several stories in Exodus. In this episode, Jon and Tim look at how redemption language shows up in Torah laws about cities of refuge and unsolved murders, highlighting God’s provision for justice, the role of the blood redeemer, and communal responsibility in ancient Israel.CHAPTERSRecap of Where We’ve Been (0:00-10:50)Cities of Refuge and the “Blood Redeemer” (10:50-21:10)Preventing Bloodshed in the Land (21:10-29:29)A Sacrifice to Redeem a Guilty Community (29:29-47:20) OFFICIAL EPISODE TRANSCRIPTView this episode’s official transcript.REFERENCED RESOURCESYou can view annotations for this episode—plus our entire library of videos, podcasts, articles, and classes—in the BibleProject app, available for Android and iOS.Check out Tim’s extensive collection of recommended books here.SHOW MUSIC“Hard Times” by Courtland Urbano“Blue Sky” by C y g n“Untitled” by unknown artistBibleProject theme song by TENTSSHOW C
