We live in a very political age. Yet, 1st century Israel was even MORE political than this! Chuck provides some interesting background for the world that Jesus was born into - and then reviews how Jesus lived into it. There are practical applications for us, whether we are "Democrat" or "Republican." Jesus always had an eye on the Big "K" Kingdom and not the little "k" kingdom of this earth. That perspective should mold and shape us as we strive to be hands and feet of Jesus today.
