I am unashamed. What about you?

0:06.2

Welcome back to Unashamed. We, Maddie, our wonderful producer, had a big idea.

0:13.5

So since we just got here so fast, we just had a whole side.

0:18.5

We did a podcast that seemed like five minutes.

0:21.8

To us. But you listen, it was really an hour. So just so you know. But we decided to hold you guys

0:28.3

over for a little bit of this next podcast because we felt like we got up to the pivotal moment

0:33.7

that we've been talking about. And that's the death of Jesus. So thank you all for coming back for a few more minutes. Because, you know, on our podcast, we just kind of, one discussion picks up from the next one. It's like, Phil, you know, you and I may not talk for weeks, you know, but then when we talk, it's like we picked up the last conversation. Absolutely. Because you have a relationship and friendship.

0:57.7

And so in this, we're talking about Jesus predicting his death.

1:02.3

And I had loosely mentioned it because I want to get into the name, meaning of names,

1:07.7

that this really is a huge moment because when these Greeks, and these are, by the way,

1:10.2

probably proselytized Greeks.

1:28.4

In other words, they... Well, explain that. Well, so they became... They were Gentiles, but they became Jews through a purification process. The only reason I think that is because they were there to celebrate Jewish holidays. But they were... Where is Zach, by the way? I called you Zad. Zach is on vacation this week. He's on the beach somewhere.

1:31.7

So he'd be proud that you use the word proselytize.

1:35.1

It's a hard word to say and spell, by the way.

1:40.5

So they became Jews, but they weren't born.

1:40.8

Right.

1:46.3

A good example of a proselytized Jew is Rahab from Joshua 3.

1:50.6

Remember, she was in Jericho, but she saved her whole family because she believed.

1:56.4

Well, later she became part of the Jewish heritage because she was in the lineage of Jesus, you know, in the physical part.

1:58.8

So there's a lot of examples of that.

2:00.3

So that's who these guys probably were. So just like, Al, we're all, the Gentiles are all grafted in like wild olives anyway. Exactly, which is Romans 9, 10, 11. So this is a big moment because the Bible doesn't, John just mentions it in like two little verses in 20 through 22. So there were some Greeks among those who went up to worship at the

2:18.4

feast. This is John 1220. They came to Philip, and we talked about the lover of horses, who was
