Episode on Matthew 8–11 with Dr. Jeannine Brown is Live

Join us as Dr. Jeannine Brown (Bethel Seminary) talks to us about Matthew 8–11. We discuss a number of things including: narrative and thematic threads throughout these chapters; how Jesus fulfills Isaiah's Servant Songs; the relationship between healing and exorcism in Matthew; Jesus sending out the twelve; the meaning of the coming of "the Son of Man"; John the Baptist's curious response of ignorance towards Jesus; how divine revelation is contingent on one's response to Jesus and how judgment fits this motif; Jesus as wisdom.
