Heiser is a PhD in Hebrew language. He's a textualist by training, a Christian by choice, and a contextualist by providence; he combs through scholarly data on lower criticism, and presents it to the public, with as little eliding and elaborating, as possible, for non-scholarly consumption. His public work ends up being a reasonable look into ancient near-east theology, which theology is what the new testament writer's were steeped in.
