Episode notes
Jesus Fulfills Three Offices
- Jesus uniquely fulfills the roles of prophet, priest, and king simultaneously.
- This sets him apart from all Old Testament figures who only held one or two of these offices.
Kingdom Is Future and Physical
- Jesus' kingdom is distinct from earthly kingdoms and is not present now.

- Instead, it distinguished His kingdom from Roman earthly rule with a future physical reign.
