Bible Note: Yes, I read Exodus, but you had changed the topic, and I was turning it back. You had asked if God would entrust His work to a man who would tire, hunger, etc. I again state emphatically that Jesus is fully God and fully man; and during all His years on earth, He felt all those things we feel (fatigue, hunger, thirst, so on) and dealt with them the exact same way (sleep, food, drink, and so on). If Jesus had not done so, there is no way it could be said that He became as we are in all things (Heb 2:17). Steve |
