Angels, aliens and genies with Dr. Tine Rassalle

Today when we hear the word angel we might picture fluffy kids with wings. But is this really how angels are portrayed in the bible? Would what we think an angel is be wrong and what’s really described in the bible is extraterrestrial beings?

Our host Fredrik continues the mission to discover what is genuine, fake, and somewhere in between on the TV-show Ancient Aliens. In this episode we’re going to sort out what an angel is and if the bible really is the best evidence for extraterrestrial visitation. To help us out with this we are Dr. Tine Rassalle. Dr Rassalle is an expert in religious material culture with a focus toward early christianity and judaism.
