Join host John Williamson in part two of an enlightening discussion with Tucker S. Furda about his new book, "Jesus and His Promised Second Coming, Jewish Eschatology and Christian Origins." Furda, an associate professor of New Testament at Pittsburgh Theological Seminary, delves into the intricate topics of the Gospels, Eschatology, and early Christian beliefs.

Explore how historical figures like Paul navigated internal disagreements within the Jesus movement, and the widespread belief in Jesus's return. Furda addresses fascinating questions around the resurrection and shares insights from the Gospel narratives, particularly focusing on Mark, Matthew, Luke, and John.

Discover Furda’s perspective on the ongoing scholarly debate about New Testament sources and his argument that evidence of Jesus's second coming traces back to Jesus himself. This episode also highlights the impact of Christian anti-Judaism on historical research, inviting listeners to rethink traditional interpretations.

Engage with thoughtful insights into early Christianity, informed by Jesus's teachings and prophetic traditions. This conversation is perfect for anyone interested in history, theology, and the modern implications of ancient texts.
