TanakhCast

Each fortnight, we look at a portion of the Tanakh from Genesis to 2 Chronicles.   It might take a while.   Please be patient.

[tanakhcast]

Moving on.

TanakhCast will continue to drop in your favourite podcatcher every two weeks.

  However, the Next Jew will cease to be updated as of RIGHT NOW.

  Thank you for visiting here, but for reals, this website was only a storage locker for TanakhCast – and anchor.fm does a much better job of it.

  So keep on listening to TanakhCast wherever you catch podcasts … and if you’re feeling large, why not hit me up at Patreon?
