I love history. It's one of the reasons I love the Mishnah - it's packed with historical snapshots from the world of Yeshua and his disciples! Here's an example, along with a couple bonus rants on how you can prove that the Jews really are Jews and how James called the meeting places of the early Christians "synagogues".
This is a takeaway from my newest Mishnah Snapshots study. We also talked about these questions:
~If synagogues aren't commanded in Torah, where did they come from?
~How can you prove that the Jews are really Jews?
~How old are Jewish liturgical rites like Mussaf and Neilah?
~What do the events of 4.17 and 5.9 tell you about the Hebrew calendar?
~Why remember "family over beauty" when watching dancing girls?

I agree, anyone who loves Yeshua would be interested in learning about the time and culture of His day. Of course He transcends time and culture, but it's important for us to understand the context of His words and deeds.
