Life of Christ LESSON 11

Jesus Questioned Over the Resurrection (Mark 12: 18 -27; Matt. 22: 23 -33; Luke 20: 27 -40) What had just happened? (Mark 12: 13 -17) Now the Sadducees take their turn at a trick question regarding the resurrection What is unique about the Sadducees asking this question? Though it doesn’t say, they were testing him. The tone of the question indicates they are. So the seven had her and left no offspring. Last of all the woman died also. (v. 22) Therefore, in the resurrection, when they rise, whose wife will she be?

Jesus Questioned Over the Resurrection (Mark 12: 18 -27; Matt. 22: 23 -33; Luke 20: 27 -40) Jesus answered and said to them, "Are you not therefore mistaken, because you do not know the Scriptures nor the power of God? (v. 24) The sons of this age marry and are given in marriage. But those who are counted worthy to attain that age, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry nor are given in marriage; nor can they die anymore, for they are equal to the angels and are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection.

Jesus Questioned Over the Resurrection (Mark 12: 18 -27; Matt. 22: 23 -33; Luke 20: 27 -40) Jesus answered and said to them, "Are you not therefore mistaken, because you do not know the Scriptures nor the power of God? (v. 24) But even Moses showed in the burning bush passage that the dead are raised, when he called the Lord 'the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. (Luke) “I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob” (Mark) He is not the God of the dead, but the God of the living. You are therefore greatly mistaken.

Jesus Questioned Over the Resurrection (Mark 12: 18 -27; Matt. 22: 23 -33; Luke 20: 27 -40) Reactions And when the multitudes heard this, they were astonished at His teaching (Matthew) Then some of the scribes answered and said, "Teacher, You have spoken well. “ (Luke) But after that they dared not question Him anymore. (Luke)

What is the greatest commandment? (Mark 12: 28 -34; Matt. 22: 34 -40) But when the Pharisees heard that He had silenced the Sadducees, they gathered together. Then one of the scribes (lawyer/teacher) came, and having heard them reasoning together, perceiving that He had answered them well, testing him asked Him, "Teacher, which is the first commandment of all? " Is Jesus answered him, "The first of all the commandments is: 'Hear, O testing/tempting Israel, the LORD our God, the LORD is one. with the same And you shall love the LORD your God with all your with all evilheart, motives your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength. ' here? And the second is like it: 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself. ‘ On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets

What is the greatest commandment? (Mark 12: 28 -34; Matt. 22: 34 -40) So the scribe said to Him, "Well said, Teacher. You have spoken the truth, for there is one God, and there is no other but He. And to love Him with all the heart, with all. This theis why understanding, with all the I apply a meaning to and to love one's soul, and with alldifferent the strength, “testing/tempting” neighbor as oneself, isthis more with Scribe. than all the whole burnt offerings and sacrifices. Now when Jesus saw that he answered wisely, He said to him, "You are not far from the kingdom of God. " But after that no one dared question Him.

Jesus Poses a Question (Mark 12: 35 -37; Matt. 22: 41 -46; Luke 20: 41 -44) Jesus asked the Pharisees who were gathered together (Temple) What do you think about the Christ? Whose Son is He? How is it that the scribes say that the Christ is the Son of David? (Matt) Pharisees, "The Son of David. " Jesus: For David himself said by the Holy Spirit: in the Book of Psalms 'The LORD said to my Lord, "Sit at My right hand, Till I make Your enemies Your footstool. “ Divine Human Therefore David himself calls Him 'Lord'; how is He then his Son? " And the common people heard Him gladly. And no one was able to answer Him a word, nor from that day on did anyone dare question Him anymore.

Woe to the Scribes and Pharisees (Mark 12: 38 -40; Matt. 23: 1 -39; Luke 20: 45 -47) Who is the audience? What is meant by “they sit in Moses' seat”? Jesus’ demeanor and approach changes What does he accuse them of in Matt: 23: 3 -4? Why would he say, “whatever they tell you to observe, that observe and do”? For they bind heavy burdens, hard to bear … will not move them with one of their fingers. But all their works they do to be seen by men.

Woe to the Scribes and Pharisees (Mark 12: 38 -40; Matt. 23: 1 -39; Luke 20: 45 -47) They make their phylacteries broad and enlarge the borders of their garments. Can you feel the tension rising? Numbers 15: 38, Deut. 6: 8; Ex. 13: 9, 16; Deut. 11: 18 They love the best places at feasts, the best seats in the synagogues, greetings in the marketplaces, and to be called by men, 'Rabbi, Rabbi. ‘ But you, do not be called 'Rabbi'; for One is your Teacher, the Christ, and you are all brethren. Do not call anyone on earth your father; And do not be called teachers [master, leader, director, guide]; for One is your Teacher, the Christ What about other earthly titles created today?

Woe to the Scribes and Pharisees (Mark 12: 38 -40; Matt. 23: 1 -39; Luke 20: 45 -47) But he who is greatest among you shall be your servant. And whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted. But woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you shut up the kingdom of heaven against men; for you neither go in yourselves, nor do you allow those who are entering to go in. For you devour widows' houses, and for a pretense make long prayers. Therefore you will receive greater condemnation. For you travel land sea to win one proselyte, and when he is won, you make him twice as much a son of hell as yourselves.

Woe to the Scribes and Pharisees (Mark 12: 38 -40; Matt. 23: 1 -39; Luke 20: 45 -47) But woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! Whoever swears by the temple, it is nothing; but whoever swears by the gold of the temple, he is obliged to perform it Whoever swears by the altar, it is nothing; but whoever swears by the gift that is on it, he is obliged to perform it. Fools and blind! For which is greater, the gold or the temple that sanctifies the gold? For which is greater, the gift or the altar that sanctifies the gift?

Woe to the Scribes and Pharisees (Mark 12: 38 -40; Matt. 23: 1 -39; Luke 20: 45 -47) But woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have neglected the weightier matters of the law: justice and mercy and faith. These you ought to have done, without leaving the others undone. For you cleanse the outside of the cup and dish, but inside they are full of extortion and self-indulgence. For you are like whitewashed tombs which indeed appear beautiful outwardly, but inside are full of dead men's bones and all uncleanness. Blind guides, who strain out a gnat and swallow a camel! Even so you also outwardly appear righteous to men, but inside you are full of hypocrisy and lawlessness. First cleanse the inside of the cup and dish, that the outside of them may be clean also.

Woe to the Scribes and Pharisees (Mark 12: 38 -40; Matt. 23: 1 -39; Luke 20: 45 -47) But woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! Because you build the tombs of the prophets and adorn the monuments of the righteous, If we had lived in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets. Serpents, brood of vipers! How can you escape the condemnation of hell? Therefore, indeed, I send you prophets, wise men, and scribes: some of them you will kill and crucify, some of them you will scourge in your synagogues and persecute from city to city

O Jerusalem, Jerusalem (Matt. 23: 37 -39 ) O Jerusalem, the one who kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to her! How often I wanted to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were not willing!"See! Your house is left to you desolate; for I say to you, you shall see Me no more till you say, 'Blessed is He who comes in the name of the LORD!'"

The Widow’s Mite (Mark 12: 41 -44; Luke 21: 1 -4) Now Jesus sat opposite the treasury and saw how the people put money into the treasury. And many who were rich put in much. and He saw also a certain poor widow putting in two mites. Truly I say to you that this poor widow has put in more than all but she out of her poverty put in all the livelihood that she had.
