Biblical scholar David M. Carr<\/a> checks in from Putnam Valley, NY. We get into how his book, Holy Resilience: The Bible’s Traumatic Origins<\/a>, resonates with our current moment, how he was trapped in Mallorca when the European semisorta travel ban was announced, the ways Tiger King<\/em> reflects our own cagedness, the work he’s doing on the book of Genesis and the nature of the myth of the Flood, the power of Jewish traditions (especially talking back to God), and how our relationship with our pets may disturbingly mirror the patterns and language people used to use about slaves. Give it a listen!<\/a> And go read Holy Resilience<\/a>!<\/p>\n
