In this episode, Dr. Kevin Grasso takes us through four key texts surrounding Jesus' death and resurrection. We examine how the messianic prophesy of Isaiah 53:7 should be properly translated (hint: every English translation is missing something). We look at the significance of Jesus' response before the high priestly court in Matthew 26:63-65: "You have said so." We dig into the complicated question of what language Jesus was speaking when he cried out "My God, My God, why have you forsaken me" in Matthew 27:46 and Mark 15:34. We unpack the way Psalm 22 serves as a motif in the passion narrative. And we detail the meaningful textual nuances of the restoration of Peter in John 21:15-19.
Kevin Grasso has an M.A. in Linguistics with a concentration in Bible Translation from Dallas International University, an MA in Comparative Religion from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, and a PhD in Hebrew Language from Hebrew University. He is the founder and main content creator of Biblingo.
