• Shepherd’s the “Lowliest of the Low” - After this episode was recorded; we’ve had some internal dialogue as to whether shepherds were the “lowliest of the low”. Tom’s final thoughts were “Luke Timothy Johnson's commentary on Luke  he says that we should not assume a criminal element in the job of shepherd, that comes from much later Jewish rabbinic source, however we should assume a lower economic level (as with Joseph and mary).”
