What Did Paul Say About Jesus? Responding to Rabbi Michael Skobac

Rabbi Michael Skobac claims Paul did not mention "literally anything whatsoever" about the life and teachings of Jesus. If true, this casts doubt on whether Paul knew anything about Jesus's life and teachings.  For some (not Rabbi Skobac), they make this claim to support an argument that Jesus did not exist! We explore Paul's letters to show that Paul does mention Jesus's life and frequently echoes, alludes to, and even quotes Jesus's teachings.  To support our work in responding to counter-missionaries,you can visit https://www.twomessianicjews.com/donate00:00 - Introduction00:59 - Rabbi Skobac's Objection5:00 - Where Rabbi Skobac was right5:36 - Why doesn't Paul tell us more about Jesus?7:36 - What does Paul tell us about Jesus's life?12:54 - Why doesn't Paul quote Jesus more?17:02 - Does Paul mention the Sermon on the Mount?19:25 - Does Paul mention Jesus's parables?21:44 - Does Paul ever quote Jesus?   You can also listen on our YouTube channelFollow us on Social Media:   FacebookInstagramSome other echoes and allusions to Jesus's teachings in Paul:  1 Corinthians 7:10-11 cf.
