About this episode
The episode discusses the debate over Jesus' identity as a Jew and explores the concept of secret codes in the Bible, including the development of the Hebrew language.
In this episode, we spend the first part discussing the issue of whether it is correct to say Jesus was a Jew (apparently, that's a topic up for debate nowadays). Then we spend the rest of the episode discussing whether the Bible has secret codes built into it. This discussion includes a fascinating discussion of the development of the Hebrew language.
