Tim Mackie: The Bible Isn't What You Think (Part 2)

There's a story in Genesis where Noah gets drunk and something terrible happens with his son Ham, and the Bible never actually tells you what it was. That's not a mistake. It's a design choice.

In part two of our conversation, Bible Project co-founder Tim Mackie walks through how the biblical authors crafted narratives with intentional gaps, layered patterns, and riddles that unfold across entire books. We get into why "inerrancy" might be the wrong word, what Jesus actually did when asked about marriage and divorce, and why Tim says the Bible isn't a rule book but an epic narrative pointing to a person.
