This episode felt a bit “transitional” to set up the last two episodes of the season, although we had some drama in the Temple! We have a lot to talk about, including Hanukkah (where’s that in the bible? And my theory on why they spent so much time telling the story) and Jesus’ radical claims.

What did you think of the way the Temple scene played out? Did you like how closely they are following John’s Gospel? We’ll talk about it all!
