E118 - Jesus and Parables: A Metaphorical Theologian
Bailey exposes the rich depths within Jesus’ parables positing Jesus as the metaphorical theologian whose parables must be considered within a Middle Eastern context. We examine the parable of the Good Samaritan and the parable of the Rich man and Lazarus for insights that would have stood out to Jesus’ Middle Eastern audience and apply them to our contemporary context.

E116 - Transcending Nationalism: The Inauguration of Jesus’ Ministry
Kenneth E. Bailey offers an in-depth exegetical, cultural, and social examination of Jesus’ inaugural sermon in Luke 4:16-31. In posing the question, “how would they have heard it?” Bailey illuminates how transcendent Jesus’ sermon was to the Jewish crowd laden with nationalistic ideas of salvation.
