In our program today we’re going to look at a verse in the Gospel of Matthew that at first seems out of place and second, seems a little bit superstitious.

We’ve learned about rabbis and their students or disciples in the past couple of programs and today we’ll finish up learning how disciples would watch, follow and emulate their rabbis so closely that the process was described as walking in his dust.
