3.61 Roman Culture Instituted in Egypt

After over a year, this is the last of the deep dives into ancient Egyptian history. In this episode, I cover how Rome instituted their culture in Egypt including their military, path to citizenship, tax and economic policies, and the caste system. I also walk through how these impacted the exiled Joseph, Mary, and Jesus. Finally, I cover the transition from Herod the Great to his son and successor Herod Archelaus, and how this allows us to timestamp when the young Jesus’ family returned from Egypt. After listening, let me know what you think.
