Bedtime Bible Boys Matthew Chapter 6 The Importance of Context - a podcast by TJH

In this episode we take a pause in going forward with the Sermon on the Mount in order to review the history of the Jewish people and gain an appreciation for who Jesus would have been teaching and how they would have heard what Jesus was saying. So often we get conceited enough to think that everything Jesus said was directed to us, when, although I am confident the Spirit can work through scripture to reveal things to us in our present lives, He was actually speaking to other people. Context is important, and even during the last few episodes we have lost the sense of context in an effort to apply what Jesus said to our exact scenario here and now. Let's discuss what He meant there and then.
