The Dragon Slayer in the Psalms – Chaos ...

BibleProject Podcast
About this episode

The chaos dragon isn’t God’s enemy—it’s an enemy of creation. The Psalms depict the entire process of creation as a cosmic battle in which Yahweh defends creation from chaos and disorder, represented by the dragon. In this episode, Tim and Jon discuss two psalms that look back to the cosmic battle at the beginning of creation and also look ahead to a day when Yahweh will give his own dragon-slaying power to a human image of God.
