  • Summary

  • Of all Jesus' parables concerning wealth and poverty, perhaps none has a more scathing denunciation of the excesses of the wealthy than the Parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus, found in Luke 16:19-31. In this episode, we find that the parable provides a sharp critique of the wealth inequality of Jesus' time and of our own.
