this video is the second of two the Heavenly Man. The topic is mystical and difficult to grasp the first time around. This is a review of our previous vid. but will add a few minor details.

In 1 Corinthians 15:49, Paul refers to Jesus as the "heavenly man" in a comparison with the "first Adam." The idea of the "heavenly man" was not new to the Jews of the first century. Join us in this video as we explore the background to the concept and how it shows up today within the area of Jewish Mysticism.
