Truth Unites | Did Ancient Israel Believe in the Afterlife? @TruthUnites | Uploaded 2 months ago | Updated 15 hours ago
Some biblical scholarship maintains that the Israelites didn't believe in the afterlife until after the Babylonian exile. Here Gavin Ortlund responds by pointing to various indications that the progression of Israelite beliefs about the afterlife was coherent.
