We've learned about rabbis and their students or disciples in the past couple of programs and today we'll finish up learning how disciples would watch, follow and emulate their rabbis so closely that the process was described as walking in his dust. In other words, staying so close to learn all they could, that the very dust from the rabbi's sandals would cover them.

The rabbis of the ancient world ?' and today ?' hand selected their students, their disciples, whom they would teach about God's Law and how they were to live. The disciples or students role was to learn everything they could from him so that their lives mirrored that of the rabbi. We're continuing on Foundations to learn how students or disciples related to their rabbis.

The Bible describes Jesus in a number of ways, He's a Shepherd, He's a carpenter, He's the Son of God, He's a teacher…and He's also called a Rabbi. What is a rabbi and what did a rabbi do? Not only that, who wanted or even needed a rabbi? That's the focus of our program today on Foundations.

The Bible talks quite a lot about living water, usually water that has a constant and renewable source to keep it fresh, as opposed to stale stagnant water that can make you sick if you drink it. In the program today we'll look at a particular water source that was protected by King Hezekiah of Judah.
