In this episode, John discusses the concept of Bêt Ab (בית אב), the foundational structure of ancient Israeli society. Translated as "House of the Father," the Bêt Ab is a part of the patrilineal and patrilocal society in ancient Israel. John talks about how this is an important concept when talking about redemption, because many cultures around the world (including ancient Israel/Palestine) think more in a communal way than an individualistic way.
