Subject: John:30-33 Manna |
Bible Note: Thank you Ray, I agree with your interpretation of John 30. It is indeed Jesus revealing his diety. I figured you did not mean the statemnet you made thus wanted to bring it to your attention. I agree that the peole 'knew' manna came frm heaven. But I believe their carnal thinking was suerior or predominant over their theological knowledge. Israel (as all of us tend to do) had a history of looking to men. For instance 1 Samual 8:4-7 Then all the elders of Israel gathered together and came to Samuel at Ramah. And said to him,"You are old and your sons do not follow your ways; apoint for us then a king to govern us. Vs 7 And the Lord said to Samuel, "Listen to the voice of the people in all that they say to you; for they have not rejected you, but they have rejected me from being king over them.Just as they have done to me, from the day I brought them up out of Egypt to this day, forsaking me and serving other gods, so also they are doing to you." Jesus revealed the desire of their hearts, food, and then is informing them that he has something much more important to offer, himself. The teaching of Jesus as God come down from heaven as manna to feed them eternal life is the essence. I just like to look not only at the teaching but at who Jesus is teaching. God bless. |
