Bible Question: Pretty incredible picture here. It appears as though Jesus did not intend to be seen. Why? Any insights about the word "intended"? |
Bible Answer: Hi load, I was rereading the walking on the water episode in Matthew and compared it with here in Mark. I would have to ammend my thoughts to you in that not all of the hearts were hardened so that Jesus was not recognized. Peter walked on the water to Him, and later, Mt.14:33 "And those who were in the boat worshiped Him, saying, "You are certainly God's Son!"" So, this was a time of learning who He was and there were evidently various degrees of worship and indentification. Later, Ray |
