In this episode Kerry and Lamar are joined by Andrea Woodmansee, who has been studying Jewish wedding traditions from the time of the Savior and how it helps us understand biblical texts. They begin by exploring imagery in John 10, and then follow that line of reasoning to understand the betrothal process and other elements of Jewish weddings that make the Christmas story come to life. You will understand and appreciate Mary and Joseph like never before. They also focus on the gift of Christ. We are grateful for our generous sponsors. We are also grateful for Launchpad Consulting Studios for producing the podcast, and to Rich Nicholls, who composed and plays the music for the podcast.
