Summary
In this episode, we spend the first part discussing the issue of whether it is correct to say Jesus was a Jew (apparently, that's a topic up for debate nowadays). Then we spend the rest of the episode discussing whether the Bible has secret codes built into it. This discussion includes a fascinating discussion of the development of the Hebrew language.
