AMPLIFIED 2015 | Acts 1:3 To these [men] He also showed Himself alive after His suffering [in Gethsemane and on the cross], by [a series of] many infallible proofs and unquestionable demonstrations, appearing to them over a period of forty days and talking to them about the things concerning the kingdom of God. |
Bible Question: Two questions. (1) What are the things Jesus talked to disciples concerning the kingdom of God? (2) Jesus talked about them for forty days (a long period of time). But why doesn't the New Testament have the details? Thank you in advance. God bless! |
Bible Answer: Hello 00123, In answer to both your questions, we do not know from the text as it doesn't say. To say anything else would be speculation! All we're told is He (Jesus)was , "...speaking of the things concerning the kingdom of God" (NASB) We're not given any details beyond that. Paul warns us in 1 Cor 4:6 that we, "...may learn not to exceed what is written" The late Dr. Arthur S. Peake noted, "Speculative theology is an exacting master, and if we decide to go with him one mile he will make us go twenty." Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
