Bible Question:
Who were Jesus' main opponents during His public ministry time? Why did they oppose Him, and how? |
Bible Answer: Read the Book of Matthew. The leadership of the Hebrew nation opposed Him totally. They challenged and criticized Him publicly. They called for his arrest, and eventually his execution. Their denial that He was the promised Messiah resulted in the postponement of the Messianic Kingdom, and the message then going to the Gentiles. See Acts, Chapter 9. |
