Jesus Christ as an Interpreter of the Scriptures

About this episode

This episode explores how Jesus Christ interpreted the Scriptures and the impact of his methodology on the Christian Church.

We have often read about Jesus in the Scriptures but how did he himself interpret them? Christ's own interpretations of Jewish Scriptures along with his methodology and attitude toward them laid the foundation of how the Christian Church would apply them.
