The work and ministry of Jesus were not done in a vacuum, free from all outside impact or influence. Rather, we can best understand Jesus’s work when we understand the culture in which he lived. This series will look at some of the underlying challenges Jesus faced within his culture. Along the way, we will see the importance of what he accomplished at the cross and how it still applies to us today.
Jesus came to fulfill the law, not do away with it. But fulfilling it, however, Jesus’s way (not Moses’s) becomes the focus. We cannot forget that Jesus’s message of good news is rooted in him as the bearer of a new covenant with new expectations. Jesus’s actions were intended to bring about the realization of a hope that only he could provide.
