Professor Emeritus of Early Judaism and Christian Origins Evangel University

Jewish backgrounds, Bible, Hebrew language and the land of Israel are areas of expertise for Dr. Wave Nunnally. He has studied, taught and written in these areas for over 40 years.

Living in Israel was a stop on Dr. Nunnally’s educational journey as he completed an MA in Hebrew Language at Jerusalem University College on Mt. Zion. Additional degrees include an MA in Old Testament from Reformed Theological Seminary and an MPhil and PhD in Hebraic Cognate Studies (Jewish backgrounds of the Bible) from Hebrew Union College.

Dr. Nunnally is the author of numerous articles with a focus on the Jewish backgrounds of the New Testament, especially the Gospels and Acts. His Acts Commentary will be released in 2026. In addition to the land and language of the Bible, he has focused his studies on original sources such as the Dead Sea Scrolls, rabbinic literature and Josephus.

University teaching and taking trips to the land of Israel have been the top priorities of Dr. Nunnally. Currently, he is Emeritus Professor of Early Judaism and Christian Origins at Evangel University. He is also an adjunct professor at AGTS and Jerusalem University College.

Israel study trips are now offered by Dr. Nunnally & Lacey through Bible Unplugged and include various private, church and pastoral groups and range from 10-15 days. When in Israel, travelers are surrounded by the remnants of the Biblical world, while connecting with authentic Israeli culture.

Dr. Nunnally regularly preaches, teaches and conducts Jewish background seminars in local churches. If interested, please reach out at info@bibleunplugged.com
