Episode notes
Jesus as Rabbi
- Jesus was a rabbi, a teacher who traveled and taught.
- Following Jesus means apprenticing under him, like students did with rabbis in the first century.
Levels of Discipleship
- First-century discipleship had three levels: basic education, advanced learning, and apprenticeship with a rabbi.
- Apprenticeship was reserved for the elite few who demonstrated potential.
Goals of an Apprentice
- Apprentices had three goals: be with the rabbi, become like the rabbi, and do what the rabbi did.
- This involved constant companionship, imitating the rabbi's ways, and eventually carrying on their work.
