Summary
🍔 EVERYONE EATS with Josh LiemMatthew 9:9-26People loved eating with Jesus. He was criticized and, some would argue,[1] even killed because of who he ate with. The Apostle Paul quotes ancient wisdom literature by saying “bad company corrupts moral character (1 Cor. 15:33),” but the opposite seems to be happening here in Matthew’s Gospel: Jesus’ company motivates mercy. We wrestle through first century dining norms contrasted with Jesus’ radical hospitality, and the implications for our lives. [1] H. Anderson and E.

Episode Description
🍔 EVERYONE EATS with Josh Liem
Matthew 9:9-26
People loved eating with Jesus. He was criticized and, some would argue,[1]
even killed because of who he ate with. The Apostle Paul quotes ancient
wisdom literature by saying “bad company corrupts moral character (1
Cor. 15:33),” but the opposite seems to be happening here in Matthew’s
Gospel: Jesus’ company motivates mercy. We wrestle through first century
dining norms contrasted with Jesus’ radical hospitality, and the
implications for our lives. [1] H. Anderson and E. Foley, Mighty
