1 | Jesus departed into Galilee | 1 Corinthians | New Creature | 57818 | ||
I was reading in the gospel of John, and as I read the following verses, I felt the need to pause. Then a question about these verses entered my mind. Maybe someone in here can give me an answer. The verses are - John 4:1 When therefore the Lord knew how the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John, 2 (Though Jesus himself baptized not, but his disciples,) 3 He left Judaea, and departed again into Galilee. Question - Why was it that when the Lord, Jesus heard that, His name was being associated with water baptism, He left Judaea, and departed into Galilee? Any thoughts? |

It wasn't that Jesus departed because of water baptism, but He departed to avoid the pious Pharisees,into Galilee by way of Samaria because they needed to hear the Word. God Bless |

inmyheart Thank you for your answer. And a very good one by the way. But can we know for sure that Jesus "departed to avoid the pious Pharisees" or can we only assume that as one of many possibilities. Or do you have some specific scripture that I am not aware of that would bring us to that conclusion? Thanks again |

New Creature, No, we don't have to assume any other possibilities, John 7:1 reads, "After this, Jesus went around in Galilee, purposely staying away from Judea 'because of the Jews' there were waiting to take His life." (NIV) It was because of success, not failure, that led Jesus to depart from Judea (the Jews opposed Him) God Bless |
