Episode Description: In today's episode, we're diving into the Gospel of Matthew and getting some insight on Jesus as the Jewish Messiah. We’ll cover who the book of Matthew is written to, why it’s important to know the Jewishness of Jesus, and cover the importance of cultural context! The Gospel of Matthew has the MOST Old Testament references and also talks about several topics uniquely from the other Gospels. Along with some recommended valuable resources for enriching perspectives, this episode will inspire and empower you to look at Matthew to understand Jesus in His Jewishness, how He connected with people across the board, bridged the gap between the Old and New Testaments, and how He fulfilled the Law and Prophets without abolishing them. Join me next week for more insights as we continue our journey Through the Bible.
