Crossroads CEO Dr. John Hull talks to Joe Amaral about how Jesus did some unusual things but if you understand the culture it makes sense and has deep meaning.
This is one of those older shows but not that old actually. And the topic is deeply interesting. And he explains how people see scripture and a verse for example without putting it into the context of the time. It was a different time and the audience was mainly Jewish but there were some other people that came from other nations from time to time. When Jesus gave the sermon on the mount I'm sure they weren't all Jewish. Remember who ran those provinces at that time. You see the Jewish Sanhedrin would have stoned the prostitute. But Christ said the first one without sin throws the first stone. He also explains that people think of Christ as a Christian but he went to a synagogue and lived as a Jewish rabbi just as if many times I said if you want to see what he was like go to a synagogue and ask to see a Jewish Rabbi. And he explains the method of teaching of Christ as a Jewish rabbis use this method.
