- In Part 2 of Grafted’s Bible Roundtable at ChosenCon, Sam and Dr. Tom get some great insight from Dr. Doug Huffman, Father David Guffey, and Rabbi Jason Sobel. The consultants discuss how The Chosen deliberately portrays Jesus as a Jewish man. By restoring His Jewish identity, the panel argues Jesus’s incarnation is even more radical than we can comprehend.
Thank you for a great discussion:

I appreciate that The Chosen has focused on Jewish traditions and Hebrew Scriptures, as well as New Testament accounts and stories. When I taught religious education, I always asked my students whether Jesus was a Jew. They almost always responded that he was a Christian. Then I could explain the Jewishness of Jesus to their amazement. Thanks, Chosen.
The humanity of Yeshua is not talked about nearly enough. The brutal truth is that He was fully God and fully man... as much God as a human can contain BUT He was human. He felt what we felt. He lived a life full of sorrow and sometimes joy. He endured a torture that we cannot even imagine... and I am not talking about crucifixion or the scourging or even the humiliation... I am talking about having to bear all of the sins of the world and doing so while the eyes of the Father were turned from Him! He was utterly dependent on the Father and He was abandoned to bear that ALONE. This is why He was distraught and asked for this "cup" be taken from Him. He didn't fear the pain of the body... it was the anguish of His very soul. And unless He was really human all of that would mean NOTHING. He taught us how to live. Not as a God posing as a man... but as an actual man that felt everything we feel and overcame it.
There are some that are offended by the depiction of Yeshua in the Chosen. There are some who think it is offensive. And many hold the production crew to an unreasonable standard. They are just sinful humans trying to do their best to make a production that tells the story of Yeshua the best that we can. Of course there are extra Biblical conversations. It isn't a documentary. It is intended to show Yeshua in a light that MIGHT just get people to think about Him and read the story for themselves in the Bible. Bludgeoning people with accusations of how awful they are and how God will send them to hell is not working. People tune out. Showing them a Yeshua that is human and still is amazing in His compassion and bold in His defense of truth and righteousness is a good way to get through to some people. The truth is that Yeshua is the Superhero of Superheroes! All of us should have Him as our Idol... our hero... most of all our ultimate role model. There is no one else worth to fill those shoes. If the Chosen can get some people to soften some hearts then why on earth would anyone object to it?
I love Jesus because He tells the truth, and IS the truth. I can believe and rely on Him. ❤
Agree!! He is impeccable with His word, and He is the Word!
Praise Jesus. Jesus I come to you today because you are all I have. As a single mother and I’m in need of your guidance and support both of my sons. Both of my sons are special needs and require so much from me. I also ask for your help in providing for my children so that they may have all they need. Lord as I struggle each month to pay rent and as I struggle to buy groceries I pray that you will give me the strength to be the best mother I can be.
Lord, lead this woman to your church, your family.
May you know the love of Yeshua and find the love and support of the Body of Messiah!
It's important to note that salvation came through the lineage of Abraham and David but that salvation is for everyone, for all nations, kindreds, and tongues. Most Christians understand this point and are thankful for his lineage and heritage, however, very few, and many Jews included understand that this very lineage and heritage was essential and necessary, fulfilling prophecies and covenants, making all of His followers His children, His covenant people, His own.
You guys are the best. Thank you for your commentaries.
I absolutely love that the three consultants have equal voices in the show. I also love that the fans have access to those consultants!
'We cant be holy without Him' as Mary Magdelene said in Season 2
Loved the insights these men gave 🙏✝️
Aloha from Hawaii 🤗 🕊 ♥️ 🇮🇱🇺🇸 so I'm looking forward to seeing this interview😊
Luv them real apples 🍎 😊
That was the most informative and interesting interview. The rabbi, minister, and priest have always been especially entertaining in their The Chosen roundtable discussion. However, this was more, so much more. Thank you foe for posting this 🙏 ❤
I’m so glad you posted this. I missed this at Chosen Con. I was in a different session
These chats between these three have been so interesting and enlightening ❤ And you two guys are the best!
Wow, you guys! This video changed my whole perspective of Jesus in such a positive way! Now, what Jesus said and did makes so much more sense. "To sin is anti-human"--wow. Yes! In Christ, we are no longer slaves to sin like we once were. God gives us the power to strive towards perfection/righteousness--for example, wearing the Armor of God, holding thoughts captive, a way out if tempted, etc. So, like Tom said, that knowing this, with Christ, we CAN be righteous. And like Sam said, we were created for relationship, not sin and temptation. Wow, wow, wow. Thank you guys so much for this video that brings so much clarity and for all the work you do.
Yes! He gives us everything we need to live a righteous life!
Love the Apple comparison!
One of the things that I like about The Chosen is the focus on Jewish culture and traditions. I thought that I knew a little something about Judaism, but now I realize that I really don’t. I especially appreciate the celebration of Shabbat; it seems like a very nice tradition and way to end the work week 😀And I had never heard anyone say, “Shalom, Shalom” before, either 😎 Hopefully, this kind of information will familiarize people with Jesus’s background and will also serve to stem the nauseating rising tide of anti-Semitism that is taking place at Ivy League colleges right now 😖
Shalom! I would love to see Grafted react to scenes of the Passion of the Christ movie. Love your videos by the way! God bless!
U guys are great! I love to listen and then understand and then try to apply.
Blessings from NC
The apple of my eye!
Shalom from Arizona
That was very inspiring. So good!
Wow. Amen! 🥰🥹
This is so true.
Hello from East Central Georgia!
You guys should review Cabrini.
Yes, He was human, and Jewish♥️, but He raised from the dead, and He is divine.♥️
Yes!
Jesus is the real Apple 🍎
I love Jews ❣️
❤
I enjoyed this. Have you 2 seen episodes 7 & 8 yet? I’m looking forward to your thoughts on those.
🙋🏻♀️testify !
I’d be curious to know your opinion over Jim Staleys teaching “identity crisis “
Over the 10 lost tribes of Israel .
👍
So this Rabbi must be a Messianic Jew then huh? Just needed to clear that up. :) Thanks guys!
Yes, Rabbi Sobel is a Messianic Jewish Rabbi.
Yep! l would agree with that Rabbi this time. ....l dont always ....but this vid l agree! Jesus felt grief and pain way more than us dull cement heads. xD
Okay, if Jesus chose to identify himself forever with being Jewish, does that mean all other racial and national identities of mankind will retain their identities as well? How can Jesus remain Jew for eternity if all other nations melted into a generic pool? Or they won't?
Yes, we believe that everyone maintains their distinctions within the Body of Messiah. Galatians 3:28 shows us that we all have equal status in Messiah but our genders, ethnicities, etc remain.
@@Grafted wow! Thanks for your reply! :) I suppose that makes sense... I guess I mixed things up too much based on Jesus' answer to the "trick question" that the woman with 7 husbands will have none of them as husbands in the Kingdom. Still a mystery to me, 😁 but I don't expect to fully understand every Kingdom reality except that which is relevant for me here and now. Thanks again! 😊
Jesus isn't American.
Correct.
Jesus was not named Jesus either 😎😉
Who said that He was?
My problem is Jesus in this series seems ALL human and no divinity. I love the show but it is beginning to feel lopsided. Is the transfiguration in S 4? If not will it be in the show? If not why not? Jesus is God and human equally that the show shy away from His Divinity is startling to bother me.
“No divinity”? “Shying away from His divinity”? Exactly what series have you been watching? Jesus casting out demons, healing the blind, paralyzed, the leper, raising the dead, turning water to wine, multiplying loaves and fish, calming a storm with a word, declaring Himself the Son of Man, the I Am who I Am, the Son of God. What in the world do you think this shows if not His divinity?
@@annme7638 l mean no disrespect by my comment, either to the show or its fans. I used to be one of those fans, I still am but if the show has to downplay Jesus' divinity in order to appeal and appease modern audience who do not want to see Jesus as God then that tells me something and it taints my view and enjoyment of the show. Just a personal opinion.
@@maireflannigan5087 I have to disagree. They have not downplayed Jesus’ divinity, of which I’ve given multiple examples, in order to appeal and appease modern audiences who do not want to see Jesus as God. What they are doing is showing Jesus for who He was, fully God and fully man. They are clearly showing Jesus’ divinity with His actions and words, which is the same way scripture points to His divinity.
I will agree to disagree@@annme7638
7:11 “He (Jesus) is helping us be more righteous. I will say it differently, He is helping us be more Human”
Did you see what he did there? Scripture says that only God is Righteous and the only way we can be counted as righteous is to seek Him and become more like Him…and yet these men are teaching the exact opposite - that to be righteous is to be human and to be more righteous is to be more human.
🤢🤮
Scripture: God made man in His image
Man: Look! Jesus is made in my image!
Scripture: Sin is anti-God because it represents man turning from God to seek himself.
Man: Sin is anti-human cuz well consequences.
not wha they said. It was imporant to see the human and the God side of him.
Watch it again couple times. And read the scripture over. You'll get it at some point. Praise the Lord
Yeshua was black the original Jews were black
Your point?
PLEASE DO NOT TALK OVER EVERYONE
