December 11, 2022: Matthew 11:2-11 Jesus and John the Baptist

This week we discuss the passage where Jesus responds to John’s question about his identity in terms of what he was teaching and doing as an indication that he was indeed the Messiah. We also talk about how John Calvin treats John the Baptist through his own interpretive lens. We conclude by talking about hermeneutical lenses and how we use them to understand Scripture.
