Samaritans, Jesus, and the Question of Leprosy in the Bible
What we today call leprosy (Hansen’s Disease) is almost certainly not the disease translated as “leprosy” in almost all English translations. Why? Also, if the Samaritans studied the Torah, expected the Messiah, and once had a temple to Yahweh, how far separated were they from the Jews in the 1st century? What archaeological discovery from the Jerusalem temple provides a connection with what Jesus calls the Samaritan in Luke 17? In this week’s Reading the Gospels through Hebrew Eyes, Chad Bird tackles these questions and more.
