Mike Heiser has an M.A. and Ph.D. in Hebrew Bible and Semitic Languages from the University of Wisconsin. He has done a lot of work trying to understand the ancient texts.

I read his book "Facade"...it was OK but not great. He is probably much better at scholarly writing than fiction.

Yeah, I’ve read some of his material, but not the his book, Facade. If I remember right, he talks about the “council of gods” quite a bit. And initially it raised concerns in my mind about it. I asked him about his faithfulness to the Word of God, in its doctrine and teachings and he claims to be solidly conservative, Biblical, Evangelical and adhering to all the essential and basic doctrines of Christianity.

But, the “council of gods” thing was somewhat a departure from other scholarship, though...

As far as the DVDs, I found out that they are $29.50 for a set of two...
