Does Jesus Really Want Us to Hate Our Family? The Hebrew Background of Luke 14:26

Does Jesus want us to hate the members of our own family? In Luke 14:26, he says that if anyone comes to him and does not "hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, yes, even his own life, he cannot be my disciple." In this video, we look at these words (and the surrounding context) through Hebrew eyes and hear it with Hebrew ears. The Torah helps us to understand these difficult words of Jesus in a new light.
