Nicholas J. Moore, "The Open Sanctuary: Access to God and the Heavenly Temple in the New Testament" (Baker Academic, 2024)

Om avsnittet

How can impure, earthbound humans gain access to God, who is holy and in heaven? In ancient Israel and much of the ancient world, the answer was obvious: by means of a temple.

Tune in as we talk with Nicholas Moore about his recent book, The Open Sanctuary: Access to God and the Heavenly Temple in the New Testament (Baker Academic, 2024), which explores how the heavenly temple emerged as an important theological concept for early Christians.

Nicholas Moore is Lecturer in New Testament at Cranmer Hall, St John’s College.
