Welcome to Tough Texts, where difficult sections of Scripture are broken down each and every week. Join the executive director of 1517, Scott Keith and Daniel Emery Price, as they read and examine Scriptural texts that are classically difficult to discern.

    God help LazarUS? (Luke 16:19-31)

    God help LazarUS? (Luke 16:19-31)

    In this episode of Tough Text, Scott Keith and Daniel Emery Price discuss the parable of the rich man and Lazarus from Luke 16, emphasizing the importance of understanding it as a parable rather than a literal account. They highlight that the rich man's identity is tied to his wealth, while Lazarus, whose name means "God is my help," represents those who rely on God. The conversation shows how the parable challenges the cultural assumptions of the time, suggesting that wealth is not necessarily a sign of divine favor, nor is poverty a sign of divine disfavor. What does this text teach us about hearing God's word vs. witnessing miracles? How does this text connect to the death and ressurection of Christ? Join us in this week's discussion of Tough Texts.

    No Justification Without Representation? (Romans 5)

    No Justification Without Representation? (Romans 5)

    This week on Tough Texts, Scott and Dan explore Romans 5, a chapter that addresses the concept of original sin and its implications for humanity. They discuss how Paul's writings can make readers uncomfortable by pushing them beyond their natural understanding of justice and righteousness. The conversation delves into the roles of Adam and Christ, contrasting the spread of sin through one man's trespass with the abounding grace offered through Christ's righteousness. How can one man's trespass lead to condemnation for all, and how does this relate to the grace offered through Christ? What does it mean for grace to "abound all the more" in the face of sin? Tune in as Scott and Dan unpack these tough questions, contrast the roles of Adam and Christ, and reveal how, through faith, the overwhelming grace of God triumphs over sin.

    Christianity and Slavery? (Book of Philemon)

    Christianity and Slavery? (Book of Philemon)

    In this episode of Tough Texts, Scott Keith and Daniel Emery Price look at the book of Philemon, focusing on the issue of slavery in the context of Christianity. Paul emphasizes his authority in Christ but chooses to appeal to Philemon out of love for Onesimus, a runaway slave who became a Christian under Paul's influence. Paul suggests that Philemon should receive Onesimus back not as a slave but as a beloved brother in Christ. The podcast examines the cultural context of slavery in the Roman world, distinguishing it from the more familiar race-based chattel slavery in American history. Paul offers to pay any debts or damages caused by Onesimus, demonstrating a willingness to take personal responsibility and urging Philemon to act out of Christian love and forgiveness. How can we reconcile Paul's acceptance of slavery in this context with modern Christian beliefs about equality and human rights? What role does forgiveness play in Paul's message to Philemon regarding Onesimus? How might the cultural understanding of slavery in Roman times influence our interpretation of Paul's words in the letter to Philemon today? Join us as we explore these questions and more.

    In today's episode of Tough Texts, Scott Keith and Daniel Emery Price discuss Abraham's willingness to sacrifice his son Isaac in Genesis 22:1-14. In what ways does Isaac prefigure Jesus as the sacrificial lamb? What does Abraham show us about faith? And how does this story deepen our understanding of God's redemptive plan through Jesus Christ? Join us as we explore these questions and more.

    Baptized For What? (Matthew 3:1-17)

    In today's episode of Tough Texts, Scott Keith and Daniel Emery Price discuss the ministry of John the Baptist in Matthew 3:1-17. John prepares the way for the coming of Jesus Christ with the message of repentance and baptism. This chapter also highlights the baptism of Jesus, affirming His identity as the Son of God and marking the beginning of His public ministry. What significance does Jesus' baptism hold for us? Why did Jesus get baptized? And how does His baptism differ from ours? Join us as we explore these questions and more.

    No More Marriage? (Matthew 22:23-33)

    No More Marriage? (Matthew 22:23-33)

    In today's episode of Tough Texts, Scott Keith and Daniel Emery Price cover Matthew 22:23-33. In this text, Jesus confronts the Sadducees, who deny the resurrection, by pointing them to the Scriptures and God's power. He explains that in the resurrection, believers will be like angels, no longer marrying or being given in marriage, but living in the fullness of life with God. This passage challenges us to consider the reality of the resurrection and the power of God over death. What comfort can we find in the promise of resurrection, especially in times of grief and loss? And how does the resurrection shape our perspective on life and eternity?
