“Exegetically Speaking” is a weekly podcast of the friends and faculty of Wheaton College, IL and The Lanier Theological Library. Hosted by Dr. David Capes, it features language experts who discuss the importance of learning the biblical languages—Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek—and show how reading the Bible in the original languages “pays off.” Each podcast lasts between seven and eleven minutes and covers a different topic for those who want to read the Bible for all it is worth.

If you're interested in going deeper, learn more about Wheaton's undergraduate degree in Classical Languages (Greek, Hebrew, and Latin) and our MA in Biblical Exegesis

You can hear Exegetically Speaking on Spotify, Stitcher, Apple Podcasts, and YouTube. If you have questions or comments, please contact us at exegetically.speaking@wheaton.edu. And keep listening.

The Christ hymn of Phil. 2:6-11 is one of the most studied NT passages on Christology. When considering Paul’s own study we should note 3:20-21 of the same letter, which reprises several Greek words from the hymn. Dr. Chris Kugler is Lecturer in Theology for George W. Truett Theological Seminary, Baylor University, at the Houston Campus, Lanier Theological Library. His publications include Paul and the Image of God and Heaven, Hell, and Hope: A Biblical and Theological Exploration of Universal Salvation.
