In this thoughtprovoking video, theologian and scholar Francesca Stavrakopoulou challenges conventional views on the authorship of the Bible, exploring the idea that many of its texts were written by men grappling with complex relationships with authority figures—particularly father figures. Drawing on her deep knowledge of ancient history and religious studies, Stavrakopoulou delves into how these "daddy issues" may have shaped the narratives and theological themes within the Bible. Her insights offer a fresh and provocative perspective on the human motivations behind some of the world's most influential religious texts.
