Bible Question (short): "What things?" |
Question (full): In this verse Christ is responding to a question with a question. The disciples asked Him "Are you a stranger who does not know these things?" Although He does not yet reveal Himself, so he supports their assumption that He is a stranger who hasn't heard the latest news. We know that God cannot lie... clearly this cannot be construed as a falsehood. Nevertheless, it does sound misleading. What do you think about this? |
