W.W.J.R? The Bible of the First Century and Sola Scriptura
In this episode, Doctors Jenkins and Moritz are joined by Dr. William Tighe as they dive into the question of the state of “the Bible” in the time of our Lord, the menagerie that was ancient Judaism, and why we cannot speak about “by scripture alone” without any reference to the place of the Church. This is the first of a series on this topic.

Where did they begin, what do they mean, and how do we approach them are some of the topics addressed. This time, they finish the show notes.
