Community in Christmas
December 22, 2021 - 17:20 | Ep. 52
Dr. Paul Wright is a friend and mentor who joins me again to discuss the significance of reading the Bible in its physical context. Last week we set the stage for the Luke version of the nativity scene, which we continue to talk about this week. If we picture Mary and Joseph isolated outside of the Bethlehem community, then we are telling the wrong story. How does the geography and culture impact our understanding of the night Jesus was born?
Episode Notes
Dr. Paul Wright is the recently retired president of Jerusalem University College. He is a published author, but for those who are interested in geography, his recent book Holman Illustrated Guide to Biblical Geography is a MUST read.
