Description
Episode 8 – Handing on the Passover
In this episode, Mike Aquilina and Kris McGregor discuss St. Joseph and the role he had in Jesus’ religious formation. Also, Mike offers a deeper insight on the scene popularly known as “the finding in the Temple.”
An excerpt from St. Joseph and His World:
A father has no idea what his son will make of the lessons of boyhood—the small and large skills passed from one generation to the next. It was Joseph who taught Jesus how to conduct the Passover seder. It was Joseph who showed him how to bless the bread and break it—how to bless the cup and share it. It was Joseph who taught him to make thanksgiving by means of the Haggadah, the ancient story of salvation. It was Joseph who read the poem that predicted the night of the messiah.
It was Joseph who gave Jesus the fundamental form that would later come to be filled by the Eucharist.
