Hebrew Word Study: Does Exodus 4:10 Confirm Moses was disabled?
In this stop on my Bible Tools Tour, I take you through the Hebrew of Exodus 4:10 and then through scholarly articles to show that Moses' claim to be "heavy of mouth and heavy of tongue" is about having a speech impairment. You don't need to know Hebrew to learn from the Hebrew of a Bible passage!
The powerful leader Moses has a disability — what does this mean for our theology around disabled persons in our own time, in our own faith communities?
The work I do in this video is simplified to make it accessible to non-scholars. For more detailed exegesis, read my paper (please don't steal or cite it without my permission).
