For being described as a "good guy" and a "good teacher", some of Jesus's words can appear pretty mean. In this episode, Trevor and Ryan tackle a large section of Matthew 15 which contains a tense interaction that Jesus had with an outsider begging for his healing. Digging into the historical background, original word usage, and similar interactions in Matthew's gospel account, they discuss the cultural background we miss in this tricky story as well as a three-day healing spree and the second account of Jesus feeding a massive crowd. Join the conversation by commenting what we missed or what you found interesting!
