In Scripture, function supersedes both individuals and personalities. The purpose of the biblical story is to teach, and it does that by introducing us to characters not as individuals, but rather according to the function of their roles. Sometimes different characters with the same name can function in similar ways. A striking example of this is how the Church, when teaching about Jesus’ mother, directs our attention to a different person with the same name. it’s as if we are expected to understand Jesus’ mother through the narrative of Mary, the sister of Martha. Join me in a discussion of Luke 10:38-42.
Intro and outro music - “Rumeta” performed by 3rd Eye Girl.
