Summary of Ann Spangler's Sitting at the Feet of Rabbi Jesus

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The smell of Martha’s stew beckons you to keep climbing, but your aching feet ignore the smell and continue to walk towards the house. You finally get to ask Jesus some questions, but your thoughts are interrupted by the cackles of chickens and Martha's joyous laughter. #2 The Jesus we meet in the Gospels is not always easy to understand. His words at the distance of many centuries from a different culture and language can be difficult to comprehend. #3 The words of Jesus that electrified crowds, incensed his enemies, and changed so many lives would have a much greater impact on us if we could hear them from his Jewish culture. We invite you to tune in and learn more about Jesus’ Jewish culture. #4 The more Lois studied the New Testament, the more she realized how much richer Bible study can be when you understand Jesus’ first-century context. She began to realize that the Christian faith was being reinforced by recent discoveries.
