Bible Question: Why did Matthew focus on Jesus's Jewish background. |
Bible Answer: As I passed by and beheld your discussions, it hurt to hear our Lord Jesus Christ referred to as JC. Men and brethren, let me freely speak unto you of the patriarchs, that they are all dead and buried. Some of them were prophets, and knew that God had sworn with an oath to them, that of the fruit of their loins, according to the flesh, he would raise up Christ to sit on his throne. In the Spirit, they saw him not as their progenitor but as their God. David, for example, called him Lord, saying, “The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool?” I do not know whether or not Matthew was focused on the Lord’s Jewish background. The main purpose of this post is to give expression to a cringe at the name JC. |
