YouTube Description
as posted by the channelWhat did Jesus really mean in the Olivet Discourse? How should we read the Old Testament in light of the New? And what can Herod’s strange reaction to Jesus teach us about resurrection and eschatology?
Today on Ask NT Wright Anything, Tom Wright and Michael Bird unpack the theological depth of Jesus’ teachings on the end times, the ongoing tension between inaugurated and future eschatology, and the complex relationship between the Old and New Testaments. They challenge overly simplistic readings of prophecy, explore the implications of resurrection hope, and reflect on how Herod’s confusion reveals deeper truths about fear, guilt, and misunderstanding in the ancient world... and today.
