Understanding Easter - Part Four: The Great Reversal
from Strange New World Hosted by Elizabeth Myer
The Easter story is full of big, bold reversals - but there's one in particular that's hidden under the skin of the story, and it just might be the most subversive of them all. Exploring it takes us to Japan, seventeenth-century England, 1980's New York City, and Nazi Germany - all to understand how the cross both epitomizes and proclaims The Great Reversal. And along the way, we'll visit one of the most famous - and misunderstood - verses in the New Testament (John 3:16), and one of the strangest stories in the Bible's library (Numbers 21).
