In John 8, Jesus says that Abraham rejoiced to see his day--how did this "seeing" happen? What does Christ mean by, "Before Abraham was, I am"? How does this connect with Yahweh saying in Exodus 3, "I am who I am"? Why did the opponents of Jesus call him a Samaritan and one with a demon? What does it mean to "keep" Jesus' words and not see death? These and other questions, Chad Bird addresses in this week's video on Reading the Gospels through Hebrew Eyes.
