Bible Question: can someone explain this verse and 27 to me please |
Bible Answer: Hi Pastor, Welcome to the Forum. What devoted love, for Jesus to honor His mother with such an act of devotion, in spite of His present disadvantage! Christ was selflessly providing for his mother even through His own mortal agony. Sometimes, when God takes one comfort away from us, He brings another to take it's place. Christ's example here is teaching all men to honor their parents in any and every circumstance, and to provide for their comforts and desires by every available means. Now the brothers of Jesus were not in His presence at this point, since they were (at least until now) in doubt concerning His divinity. John is the sole apostle with enough fortitude to stand through to the end at the Cross, thus making him the suitable candidate. May the Lord Bless You as You Serve Him. Tim |
