Michele Guinness helps us explore Jesus’ Jewish context and why we aren’t expected to now be Jews. We talk about Jewish festivals, first-century life and how this can help us read the Bible and understand it better. Brought up in a practising Jewish family, Michele Guinness worked for many years as a presenter, researcher and writer for national TV and radio, regularly contributing to Pause for Thought on BBC Radio 2. For two years she presented her own three-hour, daily lunchtime programme on BBC local radio in Coventry.
