In this episode, we discuss Ellie Wiener's journey in memorizing the entire book of Job in Hebrew. She is a PhD Candidate in the Faculty of Divinity at the University of Cambridge, completing her dissertation on the Old Testament book of Job. Passionate about exploring how the Old Testament provides the critical context for the gospel of Jesus Christ to be breathtakingly beautiful and compelling for lived faith, she loves to teach the Bible at home and abroad. When not delighting in some feature of Hebrew grammar, she might be found sharing a meal with friends or going for a walk in the woods.
