The Biblical Roots Podcast
This is a Bible-based, Christ-focused theology and apologetics podcast hosted by Professor R. L. Solberg. We talk theology and apologetics, test the claims of questionable teachers, and offer a range of Bible teachings, including verse-by-verse Bible studies.
The Biblical Roots Ministries is all about helping believers stay grounded in the truth of Scripture. Founded by Professor R. L. Solberg, our Christ-centered ministry is dedicated to creating faithful, Bible-based content that deepens your understanding of God’s Word and equips you to discern false teachings. We do this in two ways:
1. Dismantling false teachings – We take a systematic approach to breaking down ideas that challenge the sufficiency of Christ (2 Cor. 10:5), clearing away myths and misconceptions so believers can stand firm in the truth.
2. Building biblical literacy – Through Bible studies and teachings on biblical theology, interpretation (hermeneutics), and Bible history, we help believers dive deeper into Scripture and better understand it in its proper context.

Clean & Unclean (Part 2 of 2) - Testing Monte Judah
This is part 2 of the most comprehensive Biblical examination we’ve ever done on this channel on why followers of Jesus are not required to eat biblically clean or kosher. We're going to dive deep into the Torah and the Gospels and more, tracing the thread of God’s commands about food. And we’re going to use a video by a Hebrew Roots teacher named Monte Judah as the platform from which we’ll launch various excursions into the text of Scripture. Here in part two, we examine Acts 10, Galatians 2, and Acts 15. We also examine two common Hebrew Roots arguments and address five unbiblical burdens the Mr. Judah needlessly places on the shoulders of believers in Yeshua (Jesus).
