In this episode, Tim and Jon discuss the scrolls of Jeremiah and Ezekiel and their focus on the dragon-like behavior of these three nations––as well as God’s promise to bring about justice for each and every dragon in the end.View more resources on our website →Timestamps Part one (00:00-12:26)Part two (12:26-26:07)Part three (26:07-38:12)Part four (38:12-47:19)Referenced ResourcesThe Dragon, the Mountain, and the Nations: An Old Testament Myth, Its Origins, and Its Afterlives, Robert D.
