What is meant by "Jesus made all foods clean"?

The following is a discussion that came up obliquely in both my New Testament Environment class and Galatians.  What follows is a fairly detailed discussion of Mark, Chapter 7.

Welcome MSI 2015 Students!

The whole purpose of this Blog is to give you folks access to ideas, resources and whatnot that is interesting and/or useful, but doesn't quite fit into a class, because of either time or scope.

This is where "bunny trails" that we don't pursue in class will often end up.

This is also a "live fire exercise" in MSI making the transition into a greater online presence, so participate, comment, question, vent.  Just be polite and considerate of others, OK?

Postings will be tagged with one of (at this point) 5 tags, for your convienience:

1. ANNOUNCE (Announcements like this one)
2. NT_ENV (Posts / links specific to the NT Environment Class)
3. ROMANS (Posts / links specific to the Romans class)
4. GALATIANS (Posts / links specific to the Galatians Class)
5. Musings (Posts / links of general interest, or that are of interest to multiple classes)

That's it for the moment.  If I update a post (including this one) I'll put up a new post with a link to the update.
