To understand Jesus, we first have to understand the world He stepped into. Matthew and Ritah explore divine agency, the way ancient Israel understood God's presence on earth. We look at the mysterious Angel of the Lord, figures like Wisdom and the Son of Man, and how the New Testament writers drew on this framework to present Jesus.
