Episode 11 | Who is Jesus?

Yeshua was a Jewish man born in Bethlehem in the first century. From a young age, he amazed people with his wisdom and knowledge of the Torah. He grew into a man who healed miraculously, commanded nature’s elements, criticized Jewish religious leaders, and claimed to be God incarnate. Eventually, the Roman Empire crucified him at the demand of his own people. In this episode, we break down the personhood of Jesus and the roles he fulfills, answering the question, “Who is Jesus?”
