Studying the Old Testamanent
On October 16, 2021, I was blessed by having an incredible privilege of a Zoom conference with Dr. Edwin Hernandez and Dr. Zdravko Stefanovic. The purpose was to more deeply comprehend the Old Testament. As I have studied this priceless document, I have learned that reading the Bible and understanding the Bible are two different things. As a result, I frequently have more questions than answers. The purpose of this session was to begin finding answers. The credentials of these two learned scholars are below.
