I got a follow up question to the biblical academic consensus - where do you get that from? I mean literally, since I always wanted to kind of read the bible with these kinds of interpretations, but I absolutely don't know where to go for a source like this. Any tips?
Check out this YouTube channel from Dan McClellan. He's a biblical scholar with a Bachelor's (BA) in Near East Studies from Brigham Young University with a minor in Classical Greek, a Master's (MSt) in Jewish Studies from Oxford, a Master's (MA) in Biblical Studies from Trinity Western University, and a Doctorate (PhD) in Theology and Religion from the University of Exeter.
He's gotten kind of popular over the past couple of years debunking religious nuts on TikTok, but he's got a lot of very informative videos on the Bible and biblical history, what certain books or passages were actually talking about, and so on. He presents things in a clear and understandable way, without fluff or editorializing. I can't recommend him enough.
I think a good starter might be a YouTube channel called Esoterica.
