About the Event

It’s sometimes easy to read the gospels—the stories about Jesus—without

really thinking about what’s going on in the background. We read about Jesus

and the disciples eating together, but what did Jewish people in the first

century eat? We read about Jesus traveling from Galilee to Jerusalem—but

how far was that and how did they travel? And where was Jericho? We read

about the Pharisees, and the Sadducees, and the Zealots; who were they,

and what made them one and not the other? These are just a few of the

cultural background issues we’ll be talking about in Jesus (and the Gospels) in

3D. When we know something about the cultural context of Jesus’ life and

ministry all of a sudden our reading of the gospels sort of snaps into 3D. We

begin to see—and understand—the gospel stories differently. The stories

make sense in new ways. And that’s what Jesus (and the Gospels) in 3D is

about!
