Guess who’s coming to dinner? In Session 19 of The Story of Jesus, Jesus is invited to dinner by a Pharisee. When the meal is over the Pharisee probably wonders what just happened. After being scrutinized for not ceremonially washing his hands, Jesus unloads on both the Pharisees and Scribes. Using the prophetic “Woe!” formula he confronts six issues where the religious leaders have gotten it all wrong. We have hit a place in The Story of Jesus where the immense popularity of Jesus with the crowds begins to shift to serious conflict with the religious leaders. It will eventually lead to Jesus heading to Jerusalem and the Passion. Session 19 is now available at the link below.:
