Book 1: An Illumination of the Gospel of Matthew     
Part 1: The Dark Ground of Christ    
Chapter 1: The Biblical Dialectic of History     

This episode inaugurates the show, the series, and the first part.  I'm looking at Matthew 1:1-17, and exploring the question of history as it is framed by the Bible, reading Christ as the fulfillment of the classical Hebrew tradition.  I'm attempting to reveal my thinking process in Fall of 2020 as I sit with the Gospel of Matthew and, in the background, Schelling's Ages of the World.
