Bible Question: what was the Capernaum residents knowledge of God, sin and deliverance |
Bible Answer: Capernaum saw the miracles and teaching Jesus had first hand. If you do a word search for Capernaum, you will see Capernaum is mentioned several times. Read Matthew 11:23,24 and you will see that Christ has done miracles there (heals man lowered through roof, heals Peter's mother-in-law, heals servant of Romman commander). Jesus made Capernaum His new home town (Matthew 4:13). I would say that the people of Capernaum had front row seats to one of the most exciting time periods in human history! |
