Two Messianic Jewish graduate students think deeply about Messianic Jewish history and theology. We also engage with questions asked by other Jews, Hebrew Roots/One Law groups, and Christians. These questions include: Can you be Jewish and believe in Jesus? Are Gentiles obligated to keep kosher, Shabbat, and the feasts? Didn't Christianity replace Judaism? And many more! We hope to be thoughtful conversation partners with you as we explore these issues. Subscribe if you would like to join us!

ABOUT ME and THIS PODCAST: I am Avinoam ("Avi") ben Mordechai Marcus. I am an old veteran of the radio broadcast industry. For me, radio programming was very different when I started in the early 1970s as a California "rock jock" radio personality and later in the 1980s as a Colorado radio programmer and secular and religious content talk show host. I selectively do live on-air radio programming where I find opportunities but ultimately, whatever I pursue with my years of radio broadcast tra ...

The Shema is central to the New Testament. Jesus says the Shema is the most important commandment and uses the Shema to make claims about his identity. He also wears ritual objects associated with the Shema, like tzitzit. The Shema is also central to Paul's theology about the community of Messiah and it was used in early liturgy of the Jesus-follow…

1 Esdras is an interesting compilation of accounts of Solomon's Temple and its inauguration and the Second Temple. It entirely skips over the Babylonian exile in order to show the similarities between the two and it exalts Zerubabel as an even greater leader than the Scriptures.

If 1 Maccabees is the historical account of the Hasmonean Dynasty and the most important even "between the Testaments", 2 Maccabees is an even more epic retelling of the same story! However, at the center of 2 Maccabees is a much more apocalyptic (and angelic) emphasis, the hope for the resurrection of the dead based on the restoration of the Templ…

Without even a doubt, 1 Maccabees is the most important apocryphon and possibly even the most important Second-Temple text! It tells the story of the Maccabean Revolt and how the Hasmonean Dynasty frist began. Most importantly, Judah Maccabee was the mold for what Jews in the times of Jesus expected the Messiah to be like. All my notes on the Apocr…

The Letter/Epistle of Jeremiah (sometimes chapter 6 of 1 Baruch) is an exilic apocryphon (that's actually a pseudepigraphon). It's a polemic against idolatry and the need for Jews in the diaspora to not turn to the idols of the other nations despite temptation. In this episode, we overview the Epistle of Jeremiah and its connections to the canonica…

The Book of Baruch is a brief but extremely important apocryphon (that's actually a pseudepigraphon). It's all about the importance of exile and the only way out of it. If Israel is still in exile, how can they be freed? What good can they do while in exile? How is God good in exile? In this episode, we explore all that and more! All my notes on th…

The Wisdom of Solomon (also known as Wisdom) is often times associated with the apocrypha, but really it is a pseudepigraphon: a writing that imagines that it is an earlier character from the biblical canon. In this case, it is Solomon! The Wisdom of Solomon not only has a profound outlook on the relationship between God and Wisdom but also the wic…

The Wisdom of Jesus Son of Sirah (also known as Sirach) is an apocryphon especially popular with the rabbis and the early church (which gave it another name common today: Ecclesiasticus). Sirah speaks to the wisdom that comes from meditating on the Torah and Prophets - He saw the wisdom from those scriptures just as applicable to him and his people…

The apocryphon called Judith is an allegory telling the story of a seducing Israel that represents the Messianic-figure Judas Maccabee.

All my notes on the Apocrypha -…

Ever wondered about those extra books found in Catholic Bibles that Protestants and Jews don't have? What do they have to do with the rest of the Bible? Are they good? Bad?

Have you ever heard the claim that Saul's name was changed to Paul on the road to Damascus? Do Christians tell you that this name changed symbolized not only a dramatic personal transformation but also Paul's turn away from Judaism in favor of Christianity? I read through Acts 9 and Acts 13 to show that Paul's name was never changed from Saul and g…
