However could not the fact that he was allowed to preach in the temple indicate that the Jews at that time regarded him as an adult and therefore no longer subject to his parents?Nicolas Bellordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08063019108964247676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4508374680487030801.post-66898941001088451592016-01-01T10:53:39.635+00:002016-01-01T10:53:39.635+00:00I think that we make a mistake when we try to make...I think that we make a mistake when we try to make a tempro- spatial analysis of events that happened in Our Lord's early life: events then, were economically and culturally specific to the time in which they occurred and therefore totally different to our way of thinking.<br /><br />One example of this is the Money Lenders being driven from the temple with a knotted cord. To understand what happened needs translating into our own economic terms. Think of Christ as the Labour PM who on seeing Quantitative Easing is not working, has a quick Whip round for the Bankers.<br /><br />Hope this helps.

At twelve however, He as a human being was still subject to His parents. As with Pilate, He submitted to their authority over Him having first asserted His divinity.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04003778163620215152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4508374680487030801.post-34575243595964177222016-01-01T07:11:23.268+00:002016-01-01T07:11:23.268+00:00God probably needs forgiving for healing Jarius...God probably needs forgiving for healing Jarius' daughter because she might have been an organ donor. Since Jesus healed her, her organs were then no longer available to be sold to the local doctors for the highest bid thereby denying the "good that her organs would do for others". Jarius' daughter, being healed - that is alive again - selfishly kept her organs.
