Send us a text (www.buzzsprout...)
In today's episode we look at the meaning of marriage from a first century Jesus perspective.
There are many references that Paul, Jesus and Peter make, pertaining to marriage, that we as gentile peoples don't understand so we need to ask ourselves:
• What did Jesus mean when he was speaking about marriage? (Mark 10:7)
• What does Paul mean when he says he has betrothed the community of believers to Christ? (2 Corinthians 11:2)
• What does Peter mean when He says that we were not redeemed with perishable things such as gold or silver? (1 Peter 1:18-19)
• What is the meaning of Jesus sharing the cup with his disciples before his crucifixion? (Luke 22:20)
• What does it mean that Jesus goes to prepare a place for his bride? (John 14:3)
These references and more have unique meaning when we look at marriage from a Jewish perspective.
