Jesus son of Joseph: Adoption in the Ancient World

This just happens to be one of my favorite subjects on earth – why? – Well, because I am an adoptive mama of two beautiful 16-year-old boys! So who better to teach this? Okay, so a lot of people, but I am what you are stuck with.

We have a FULL slate this week –  Romans 8:14-17, the naming of Yeshua/Jesus by Joseph as opposed to Mary, all the adoptions in Scripture, sonship vs slavery, Yeshua being a “prophet like Moses,” what baptism meant in terms of being “born again,” the curse of Jeconiah, early Christians adopting abandoned newborns – all in about 45 minutes. *Phew*
