1 | Truly this Man was the Son of God.Mk 15 | Luke 4:23 | Searcher56 | 8279 | ||
Ray ... in Luke 4:23 Jesus was talking. Go back to verse 14-15, where Jesus was praised for His teaching, until He came to His home town, Nazareth (vv. 16ff). They thought of Him as Joseph's son (vs. 22). They wanted a miracle of healing. In Luke 23:39, the theif on the cross next to Jesus wanted to be rescued off the cross. He may of thought Jesus was able to get Himself off, so he wanted Jesus not to forget Him. The people of Nazareth wanted to kil Him, but, He was able to overcome the power of the crowd. It was His time, nor was it the right method. While He could of saved Himself off the cross, it was His time and it was the right method. The voice of one man, and even the crowd could not stop Him. While this may not of been the comparison you were lookin for, it was one that came to me as I was typing this. Steve |

Steve, perhaps I'm misreading the second paragraph of your post, but aren't you getting your thieves on the cross crossed? The thief of Luke 23:39 is not the thief of Luke 23:42 who said, "Jesus, remember me when You come in Your kingdom." ..... You also say, in paragraph three, "The people of Nazareth wanted to kill him." The place of the crucifixion was "The Skull" (Calvary, Golgotha), which is in the environs of Jerusalem. How is it then that they were Nazarenes? --Hank | ||||||
3 | Truly this Man was the Son of God.Mk 15 | Luke 4:23 | Searcher56 | 8312 | ||
Hank, Thank you for the correction, about the thief. "The people of Nazareth wanted to kill him." is what I get from Luke 4:28-29. |
