Episode 10:  Anarchism Is...Jesus of Nazareth Part 2: Jesus of Nazareth
Christ and the Woman Taken in Adultery, Breugel the Elder

Our guide to this Jesus is Walter Rauschenbusch, whose bold claim for Jesus as a socialist in the early 20th century reverberated around the world. This Jesus actually thought the last could be first. And he didn't have much time for lawyers, philosophers, priests, judges, emperors, and anyone else who held power.
