I always appreciate learning about people and places that I've read in the Bible and skimmed over due to my own ignorance. Knowledge of time and place makes the authority and reality of scripture come to life. You are a very fine teacher. Scholarly yet sounding like a guy I would enjoy having coffee with given he opportunity. Thank you for your work. Let's go be a blessing.
Thank you so much for filling in so many things I have missed and not put together! Your videos are such a blessing. To God be the glory. I am homebound ,but last year I joined an on-line Bible study. Out of that study I now have 6 beautiful sisters that I connect, pray, laugh and cry with. It is such a blessing! All praise to God!!
Again, I am grateful to have discovered this excellent channel. I always regret that so much was not mentioned in the Bible. You Brandon bring to light names I missed despite a whole lot of Biblical reading.
This was a great summary to show the interrelations of these important disciples and the roles they played. Along with The Chosen's depiction, it made it real about what they were going thru in the years after Yeshua's death & resurrection. Now as I read Acts & the Epistles these names won't be something I just sort of brush off as just some names on a page. Understanding the landscape, geography, history, and politics of the era paints a more complete picture and understanding. In a way, it brings shalom 😊.
I always learn so much from you Brandon. Love how The Chosen finds instrumental early church figures and makes us want to learn more about them. Thanks for your research.
WOW! What great insight into the New Testament! I love how first century Christians were such a model of serving and living together. Great challenge. Thank you for your diligence to research and share your knowledge.
Thank you Brandon for another excellent lesson and application to today. Formerly I believed the greatest danger to American christians was the influences of materialism and hypersexualization. Now I fear the poisonous political partisanship encourages us and justifies us hating and creating divisions - even with other believers. Proverbs 6 Nothing against my brethren who have strong beliefs and participate in politics. It’s just our label should start with “Christian” then political affiliation. Not the other way around. Our citizenship is first with God. Our path and actions should mirror love, mercy and forgiveness lived by our Savior and freely given to us.
Thank you, Brandon, for your knowledge and scholarship. I get wonderful insights from your sharing. I am a Catholic and I find your teaching very uplifting. Thank you again for relating your ideas to our own lives.
What you said about letters and share what things were said or left out and how someone else filled in a detail that was left out, is kind of like how the synoptic gospells fit together....filling in and adding details one might have left out.
Brandon, thank you so much for expanding our understanding of the scriptures by placing them in a historical and cultural context. It really enriches my study time! Like Mike Nixon says below, you are a fine teacher, sir and I am deeply grateful for these videos.
I wondered how the disciples could remember everything that was said and that happened in detail and I guess some of you already know this verse that helped me out a lot. But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you. John 14:26 NIV
I love studying and understanding the Bible It was always read to me as a child but so much as I have gotten older was left out. Maybe because our parents thought we were too young to understand and knew through our life we would gain knowledge!! I like your understanding of God's word. Blessings to you and your family,!?
Brandon, God bless you and what you are doing 🙏🏼. You explain so very well the Scriptures !!! I love the gospels and you take them to new heights ! Always truthful and correct for everyone to understand. Keep up the excellent work 🙏🏼
Was Tychicus the one who fell sleep from the second floor and they said that he was dead but Paul or Peter raise him and told that he was alive. Thank you Jesus Christ for your Salvation and for your miracles. Amen
The story of onesimus should be preached in all our black white, red. Yellow and mixed churches TODAY, to show that Christians should not be slave owners even back then.
You made some really powerful points in this video. You are a faithful worker for the gospel. Thank you. And, might I ask if you are dwelling on future topics of interest, and since you fill in rarely thought about details, please consider doing a topic study on how the gospel was financed? Since you brought up the truth that many of these early gospel workers knew each other and traveled with each other, such things cost money. We know that Paul probably had to work as a tent maker to finance himself occasionally. We also know that money was transferred from one region to another to support churches who needed it. The concept of tithing may have been introduced from Jewish believers. So I wonder how it all really worked. I don't believe it worked then like it does now, and I have been really curious about this. Just consider the idea please...
Thank you for revealing to us these possibilties of these important men being actually connected with one another in their time. This realization is overwhelming I had goosebumps. And it simply tells me that I still have to go through a deep path when it comes to understanding the Bible and its people. You are always amazing, sir. Praises be to God for showering you such wisdom to study the scriptures and my sincere appreciation to you for sharing your wisdom to us, your viewers. May God bless you forever and always.
@BrandonRobbins. It's Saturday afternoon, and I'm just now watching this. I needed a nap on Wednesday, and slept right thru the Bible Study! Interesting fellow Tychicus. Thank you Brother Brandon. Something new to learn. J.
Hi thank you for your teachings. They are very insightful. I was wondering in the chosen why do they kiss their hand and touch the door when they leave home?
thank you for your effort and beautiful message, brother Brandon.. must admit that I am shocked: Tiberius suggested having Jesus included as a deity in the pantheon? Now i am very confused and have to think about it.
I have been looking for a confirmation of this but cannot find it anywhere. There is no mention of this from secular historians like Suetonius and early Christian writers make no mention of this. What is the source of this information? Plus, Tiberius was the reigning emperor when Jesus was crucified. Why would he deify someone executed by the Romans in Judea?
An excellent appeal to believers to do the Lord's will and to avoid partisan divides of any sort other than dividing the way of Jesus from the way of the world. Praise Jesus and do not criticize sinners as you were once the sinner! Jesus has shown His mercy, kindness and forgiveness to you. Show the same to those around you. Outside of the mercies of Christ we are all without hope. Be fruitful and multiply the kingdom of God! Be salty, it makes people thirsty! Let them drink from the fountain of life giving waters which should be flowing from your belly. It that water is not flowing from your belly please reconcile yourself to Christ anew, rededicate yourself and repent from your failures because Jesus wants to save as many as possible and you are who He can use to accomplish His goals. You are the salt of the earth! You are the chosen ones! Realize you are in an epic war against unseen forces and pray without ceasing. Put on the armor of God and do battle against the evil of this world. Oh Lord God in Jesus' name strengthen us to do your will!
I would love to see St John Mark portrayed in the show. According to tradition Mark was a rich pre teen boy when Jesus started his ministry. Probably the young boy who fled naked leaving his rich linen cloth(1st century rich Jewish boys pajamas) behind. Son of Mary and Aristopulous and with double cultural background. I really would love to see the writer of the first gospel ever written.
Can you talk about the live chat? I’d like to spread your name to the podcast of Phil Robertson it’s four times a week with a lot of Chosen viewers including the podcasters! I’d also like to participate, THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS!
Hi. I'm not exactly sure what you mean about the live chat. Was there something specific I said during the premiere? I'm familiar with their podcast. Someone showed me that they mentioned my Matthew video once. Feel free to share my name with them. :-)
I have a question that is not related to Tychicus. You explained what parts of the Jewish Holy Books that Jesus took the Our Father from. What about the extra lines "For Thine is the Kingdom, the power and the glory forever. Amen"? Where do these words come from? Thank you for your answers.
It was conflict between Jewish believers and Jewish non believers. Later the Jewish sect became known as 'The Way' were mockingly known as 'Little Christs'. Interesting how China already had a simple form of printing but no one had cottoned on to this method in the west.
I just was wondering if you are a linguist or in ministry, or an historian or biblical scholar? I love how you pull from so many different sources to create a clear & very accurate image of the world of the Bible.
Please provide a source for your information that Tiberius sought to deify Jesus. I cannot find it in either secular or early Christian writings. It is confusing because Tiberius was emperor when Jesus was crucified. It seems odd that the fellow in charge would want to deify someone who was put to death as a criminal in his domain.
He is wearing a hoodie which was not a fashion until the low Middle Ages , a lot of out of era fashions , attitude and concepts in the show. The Fish symbol was not used until 120 AD, 10 years after John died. There were no secret passwords for Christians in 48AD. There were some code words like Babylon for ROME and Angel for leader of the church or bishop. The great persecution of Christians by Rome didn't start until after the Coliseum was finished in 80AD. John was still alive.
True - and if you look at the whole series, you see a lot of anachronisms like this. Tells me this is not a documentary, but a TV show. I enjoy the message, without all such details. The invitation given to Peter in Samaria is one of my favourite, though, as it is totally correct - well except being part if the show's script, not any gospel text I know of. Happy 2022!
@@pierrealberson4657 Well yes, it's a show. But a show that depicts our LORD, His Blessed Mother and His apostles. Many people on the spiritual fence are watching this show. People with weak spiritual foundation in the true gospel can be deceived to believe biblical, doctrinal and historical falsehoods. Not the ones who have firm foundation on Christ but millions with weak foundation might be deceived into a New Age Hippie Jesus and a avant guarde St Peter or a mundane Blessed Mother with ear piercings and mundane thoughts.. Great show nevertheless, well done, great performances. Just, maybe not well documented or advised.
@@texaslocoman1 A fair point! I cannot speak for the Chosen's crew, but I will certainly remember to take even more care to get even details correct in my own teaching.
Love and gratitude. I do love how all these characters in The Chosen come together.

Tychicus was a Roman citizen from what is now Turkey. Tradition has him becoming bishop in that region. We celebrate him on 29 April.

I love listening to you. Sometimes I don’t understand----3 yrs baptised, the Bible is difficult to understand
I should have known that Dallas and co. didn't make up this person but I'm still awed by the message within the message.
So excited for this 😍❤ God bless ➕🙏🏻

Would love to find a virtual group as I am home bound.
I am as well. If you hear of one let me know. Thanks
What a terrific lesson!!
I love studying and understanding the Bible
It was always read to me as a child but so much as I have gotten older was left out.
Maybe because our parents thought we were too young to understand and knew through our life we would gain knowledge!!
I like your understanding of God's word.
Blessings to you and your family,!?
I love your teachings sir! please do a series on early church fathers.
I would appreciate if you do.Shalom.

Just going to church doesn't make you a Born-Again Christian any more than going to a doctor's office makes you a doctor, or going to a garage makes you a mechanic.
Half obedience is still disobedience! You must be Born-Again to enter the Kingdom of Heaven.
Blessings and peace to all! 🙏📖😇
Brandon, God bless you and what you are doing 🙏🏼. You explain so very well the Scriptures !!! I love the gospels and you take them to new heights ! Always truthful and correct for everyone to understand. Keep up the excellent work 🙏🏼
Was Tychicus the one who fell sleep from the second floor and they said that he was dead but Paul or Peter raise him and told that he was alive. Thank you Jesus Christ for your Salvation and for your miracles. Amen
Peeling away layers to true description of people involved with Christ and spreading HIS teaching.! Thank you for your efforts! Blessings! Prayers!
The story of onesimus should be preached in all our black white, red. Yellow and mixed churches TODAY, to show that Christians should not be slave owners even back then.
I never knew what a Tychicus was before. Thanks for the explanation. Berachot,

No problem. Glad you were able to watch later. I need a nap myself sometimes.
Thanks for the great lesson.
Well now I can hear you Brandon 🤷🏼 I don't know what the trouble was.
Glad the sound came back! Thank you for joining the premiere today!
Amen!
I had never heard of him. I wondered who he was and if he was real.
Me neither.
I love this
Thanks

Did I miss an episode of the Chosen??? Or going ahead of it?
He was in the Christmas episode this year. It's called "The Messengers." I believe it's on the Chosen app and website.
Just as the underground churches of today. Each page that gets passed around between groups.
I would love to see St John Mark portrayed in the show. According to tradition Mark was a rich pre teen boy when Jesus started his ministry. Probably the young boy who fled naked leaving his rich linen cloth(1st century rich Jewish boys pajamas) behind. Son of Mary and Aristopulous and with double cultural background.

Read the Bible thru 3 times. But did not remember his name...guess I was scanning thru Paul's letters.
I can't hear anything.
May I ask a question about your background, Brandon...?
I just was wondering if you are a linguist or in ministry, or an historian or biblical scholar? I love how you pull from so many different sources to create a clear & very accurate image of the world of the Bible.

Check the last verse. The very last verse in the whole bible.
My name is spell different and say a different way
You pronunce Tychicus differently than others.
