Episode 77 - Jubilee Jesus 

May 25, 2023 - Host: Dr. Gregory Hall

One may be familiar with the term jubilee. It's a descriptor that is sometimes used in our modern culture in a variety of ways. In this episode we look into the biblical context for the idea of the jubilee. We will define it, look at the Old Testament context, and examine how Jesus interacted with the idea. And... spoiler alert... the whole concept points to Jesus' ministry. That's why I often refer to him as the Jubilee Jesus!
