Behold The Man With Joe Mcclane

Today on “Behold the Man”, we look at Genesis 26, 27, and part of 28 in our study of “A Father Who keeps His promises” by Dr. Scott Hahn. Rebecca, knowing the Isaac was about to bestow the blessing of the first born to Easu, intercedes, and sends Jacob in to Jacob Easu and Isaac. The plan is hatched,,, carried out,,, and the blessing goes forth! The parallels to the passover, and Easter/Eucharist are amazing. Send me an email at CatholicHack@gmail.com.

Today on “Behold The Man”, we take up where we left off in chapter 6 of “A Father who keeps His promises” by Dr. Scott Hahn. Jacob, the younger will supplant Esau, the elder, which is contrary to the structure of ancient families, and yet, a major theme through out Salvation History.

Today, on “Today, on “Behold The Man” We dive into chapter 6 of Scott Hahn’s “A Father Who Keeps His Promises” which introduces us to Rebecka, the wife of Isaac. It seemed rather interesting to me that Scott move rather quickly through the narrative on how Isaac met Rebecka so I thought we would spend a show talking about it (Genesis 24). There are some very cool typological themes here that I want to bring out. Send me an email at CatholicHack@gmail.com. Please be sure to leave a review for us on iTunes.

Today, on “Today on “Behold the Man” , we interrupt our regularly scheduled program to look at the typology found in St. Luke’s annunciation narrative in chapter 1. Like the Tabernacle in the wilderness, and the Temple of Salomon, Mary too was overshadowed by the Spirit, and filled with God’s presence. But… there’s another prototype that most miss… Gen. 1:2 and the Spirit that hovered over the waters of creation. It’s the bonus round. Send me an email at CatholicHack@gmail.com.

Today, on “Behold The Man” we finish up chapter 5 of “A Father who keeps his promises” by Dr. Scott Hahn, by looking at Genesis 22 and Abraham’s ACT of faith. It’s a powerful peak into the future and how God will send HIS only son, Jesus, placing the wood on His back, making Him climb that mountain, and offering Him up there. Abraham trusted in God to redeem Issac, to resurrect him on the 3rd day… just as Jesus will do on that same spot! Send me an email at CatholicHack@gmail.com.

Today, on “Behold The Man” we look at the mysterious figure of Melchiz’edek whom Abraham gave a tithe and whom it is said, in Hebrews 7:17 “For it is witnessed of him, ‘Thou art a priest for ever, after the order of Melchiz’edek.’ “ Who is this man? Where does he come from? What does this mean that Christ is a Priest after HIM? Send me an email at CatholicHack@gmail.com. Please be sure to leave a review for us on iTunes.

Today, on “Behold The Man” we take a deep look at Acts 2 in and uncover many of its rich Old Testament parallels and prototypes. Just as “devout men” from “every nation under heaven” are praying for the return of the shekina glory cloud to return to and fill the temple… they hear a sound… and gather to see it has but, this time not on the rock the temple was built on rather, upon the NEW rock… St. Peter and the 11 Apostles.

Today, on Behold The Man, we look at the Gospel reading from the 3rd Sunday of Easter… St. John chapter 21. Here we see our Lord ask St. Peter 3 times if he loves then commanding him and to feed his sheep. This chapter is packed so full of symbolism, and fulfillment of other NT verses that I could not help myself but discuss it today. Between, the fishing expedition, the charcoal fire, the fishes and loaves, and the 3 fold “do you love me’s” it becomes clear what is going on… Christ the “Good Shepherd” is making St. Peter the pastoral shepherd over HIS flock in the Kingdom of God.

Today on Behold The Man, we dive a little deeper into St. Luke 15:11-32 and St. John 4 as we see how much Our Father has great love for his children. We also see how the “Prodigal Son” and the “Woman at the Well” were also direct encounters with God in bringing back together his family, the Jews and the Israelite’s, the chosen people of God.

Today, on “Behold the Man” I give an overview of a talk I will be giving on the subject of Shame from John Paul The Great’s book “Love and Responsibility”.

Today on "Behold The Man" I talk about a recent article I wrote about Praying Boldly and asking God for a sign to shore up my faith. God has given us his only Son, His Church, His Sacraments, His Mother, our brothers and sisters (the Saints), but, he wants to give us something more.... an experiences of Him as "My Father" not just "Our Father". Yes, it's better to not have seen and believe however, God is ready to give you what he gave St. Thomas... a little something extra! Send me an email at CatholicHack@gmail.com.
