What if we could step back into the first-century world of Jesus and walk on a dusty road with him as one of his first Jewish disciples? Here we examine Jesus’ lifestyle as a Jewish rabbi and consider how his words would have been understood within the larger framework of Judaism. His words grow in clarity and depth when seen in the light of their original setting.
