On Caesar’s Turf
from The Bible as Literature · host The Ephesus School
When Jesus crosses the Roman sea in Matthew, he brings the good news of the Matthean genology—of the liberation of God’s people from captivity—to the gentiles living under the control of Caesar. The Gadarene exorcism consolidates a pattern in Matthew: those whom we assume to be wrong are the very ones who obey the command of the Master. Richard and Fr. Marc discuss Matthew 8:28-34.
