Published: Oct. 20, 2022, 11:15 a.m.

In this weeks episode, part 2 of 2, I defend the thesis that Christians were people of the Bible in accordance with their historical and cultural context. While recognizing that Christians most likely didn\u2019t have access to their own physical copy of the complete Bible, Christians certainly had access to the contents of the scriptures and relied heavily upon them for faith, life, and practice while devoting themselves to the instructions of the book.\nIn part 2 we discuss:\xa0\nJewish Communities and the Book\nChristian Communities\nThe Distribution of Manuscripts\nEarly Christian Statements on Scripture\nConclusion\n\xa0\nEpisode landing page and related resources: https://christisthecure.org/2022/10/20/people-of-the-book-pt-2/\n\xa0\nChrist is the Cure is subscriber supported: Join the support team at patreon.com/christisthecure or go to https://christisthecure.org/support-citc/\n\xa0\nMusic details:\n\xa0\n\u201cTurn your Eyes,\u201d Original words (V1) and music by Helen H.
