Summary
At the Messianic Jewish Alliance of America (MJAA) Messiah Conference 2023, Jonathan gave a presentation addressing the standard interpretation of Mark 7.15–19. He presents three reasons why it is implausible that Jesus abrogated Israel's dietary laws and then offers a reading of the text that makes better sense of Jesus's argument in its Jewish context.

Dr. Williams won the 2022 Paul J. Achtemeier Award for New Testament scholarship for this paper and it will be published as an article in the peer-reviewed journal, New Testament Studies.___________________________ You can also listen on our podcast: https://anchor.fm/two-messianic-jews Follow us on Social Media: Facebook Instagram ___________________________ Works cited:Daniel Boyarin, “Mark 7:1-23 – Finally,” in Taylor G.
