Unraveling the mystery of Incarnation and Jesus’ humanity. Brandon D. Smith and Madison N. Pierce Image: Canva
Earlier this month, Christianity Today published an article from A. J. Swoboda and Nijay Gupta entitled, “Jesus Was the God-Man, Not the God-Superman.” The article was widely debated and received significant pushback. As I read the twitter responses, some measured and some not, I thought it would be helpful to invite a charitable response that looked at the scriptural texts involved. So, I’ve invited Brandon Smith from Cedarville and Madison Pierce from TEDS to respond to that article.
The paradox of the Incarnation is not the stuff of legend, but it is the stuff of many theological debates. The mystery of the Incarnation always has been a source of wrestling. We ask, “Jesus by all accounts is divine, and yet he takes on human frailty. How can that be, and what does it mean?”

Larry Walker, the last living translator of the original team of scholars who produced the New International Version of the Bible, died on March 8 at age 88.
Walker was a Hebrew scholar and a Semitic languages specialist who used his skills in the extinct Amorite language of Ugaritic to shed light on the Old Testament, illuminating the details of everything from the “trading ships” of Isaiah 2:16 to the “darkest valley” of Psalm 23:4. He cared deeply about accuracy and specifics and believed a commitment to the doctrine of inerrancy could serve as the basis for the highest quality of scholarship.
