#666: Jesus the Passover Lamb – April 3, 2026
Narrative Lectionary Podcast • Post date: March 12, 2026
What does it mean that Jesus died at the exact hour the Passover lambs were being slaughtered? And why did John include such specific, seemingly minor details — unbroken bones, blood and water, a burial garden — in his account of the crucifixion? In this Good Friday episode, hosts Rolf Jacobson and Kathryn Schifferdecker are joined by Johannine scholar Karoline Lewis to unpack the rich theological layers woven into John 19.
