Episode 32: Unburied treasure
When we read Paul, we can often hear echoes of the teaching of Jesus. Jesus spoke of the secrets of the kingdom, and in parables, likened the kingdom to a great treasure. As we’ve seen, Paul uses similar language to speak of the “mystery” that’s been uncovered or revealed to God’s people (Col 1:26). He then uses the language of hidden treasure (Col 2:3) to help the Colossians appreciate the value of what they already have in the gospel they’ve been taught.
