About this episode

The episode explores how Jesus and the apostles interpreted the Scriptures and the necessity of biblical interpretation.

The roots of Orthodox biblical interpretation are found in Christ himself, followed by the apostles. How did Jesus interpret the Scriptures? How did other rabbis interpret them? Why does the Bible even require interpretation if we are all using the same New Testament?
