Editor's Notes
- I have 7 minutes to cover one verse, Matthew 5:41I’m going to start with some history, much of which will be familiar to people who read the New Testament. I’m then going to look in detail at our verse.Finally we will think about what that verse, and others like it means for us in twenty-first century Jersey.The biggest fact of life for first century Jews was the Roman Occupation of Palestine, just as the biggest historical event was the Roman-Jewish War of 66-73 AD, in which over 1 million people were killed, another 100,000 enslaved, and the Second Temple, along with the whole of Jerusalem was destroyed. Jesus’ ministry took place between the Roman invasion of 63 BC and the war of 66 AD, in the reigns of Augustus (King of kings, lord of lords, bringer of peace, son of God) and Tiberius.
