Levine's entire body of work is about making the Jewish world of early Christianity legible to Christian readers. Having her lead the Catholic Biblical Association isn't just symbolic — it's the logical endpoint of decades of that scholarship.

Ben Shapiro probably does not know enough history to even know this, but the way he is talking about Muslims as a nation within the nation who can never be integrated is almost verbatim what European nationalists said about Jews in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

Tweet from Ben Shapiro: "It turns out that importing massive numbers of Muslims from third world countries is a bad idea. Not just because people get beaten in Dearborn for protesting or nearly stabbed in Ceuta for covering the news. But because radical Muslims create voting enclaves in Western countries, then build coalitions with radical Leftists who hate our civilization. Which is what’s about to happen in the Michigan Senate primary tonight. https://open.spotify.com/episode/38vGLFQdRN2C5rP1ZjtCRF"
