Without an audio recorder, how did the disciples remember what Jesus actually said or did? In this episode, Josh talks with Dr. Craig S. Keener of Asbury Theological Seminary about how memorization and discipleship actually worked in the Jewish and Greco-Roman world. You’ll hear why education was built on memorization and how the disciples would have preserved their teacher’s message and words collectively, not individually.
