Judas Iscariot is the disciple who betrayed Jesus. He was a son to Simon Iscariot of Kerioth town. He was fond of stealing coins that had been collected from the community. The fact that Judas was one of the disciples proves that Jesus loves and treasures everybody. Jesus can allow people from all walks of life to become his disciples. Despite being a thief, Jesus allowed Judas to be the treasurer of the disciples. Jesus knew that Judas had an evil personality. Money had a great toll on Judas,…

The book of Zechariah has many places where Jesus can be seen in multiple ways. A few of the ways he can be seen in through the Old Testament is typology, symbolism, Old Testament offices, or prophecy. Jesus is found in Zechariah through typology mainly, as Zechariah talks of his many visions. Not only is Jesus seen in the book of Zechariah, but he is fulfilled in the New Testament in multiple books of the Bible. The Old Testament is a crucial part of the Bible to see the full picture.…

Introduction The Gospel according to Matthew is the first of the four gospels in the New Testament. Written around second century A.D., it presents the story of Jesus, the breaking-in of the new and final age through his ministries, his death and resurrection, and the demands of Christian discipleship (The New American Bible). In Chapter 6, Jesus is teaching in Galilee to his disciples and to the people of Galilee. The principle of this section (3:1-7:29) is the Proclamation of the Kingdom (The…

Jairus’ house. After the woman is healed, the story of Jairus’ daughter is continued and concluded. Since all three synoptic gospels keep the placement of the hemorrhaging woman in the middle of the story about Jairus’ daughter, it can be assumed that Matthew and Luke kept Mark’s original intercalation in order to preserve a theme of one or both of the stories. On the surface, the recipients of the miracles in either story hold nothing in common. Jairus is identified as a leader of the Galilee…

Teacher, holy man, social radical, Messiah or deluded lunatic - regardless of how Jesus of Nazareth was and is perceived by individuals past and present, his three-year ministry was indisputably a pivotal turning point for society. Jesus was born to the Virgin Mary , in c. 5 CE, he did not, however, commence his ministry until age 30 . Jesus Christ marked the beginning of life-changing his ministry by being baptised by John in the Jordan River, an action that puzzles Christians and biblical…

The Gospel of Matthew tells of the story of Jesus's role in the fulfillment of the old prophecy / testament from Isaiah. The author of The Gospel of Matthew begins my informing the readers how Jesus is descended from the line of King David and Abraham. This shows that Jesus is not only a king but the Messiah they’ve all been waiting for. In the book it proceeds to tell of Jesus’s teachings providing even more evidence that he’s as great of a teacher than that of Moses. In the book it talks about…

Even though the children had severe medical issues they were still joyful just because they are living life. The third experience also shows some instances of joy. When the group of four featuring the two brothers, Michael Campo, and Matthew Sanchez, traveled to Ghana, Africa to visit a leper colony. They meet victims of leprosy and their families, the victims still show joy because they are living life still, they think of life as a gift. Although joy is shown in the Gospel of Mark,…

leaders, kings, and saviors, although, after reading all four, He is one with all, He is Christ. Three of the four Gospels are considered to be the synoptic gospels, because in the end they paint Jesus very similarly. To start with the beginning, Matthew is an interesting gospel in my point of view. It is towa220rds and audience for the Jewish community, as all the others are not. Mark, the first gospel written, second in order, was written towards Romans. He focuses on Jesus living as a…

oldest layer of literature that can be used to interpret the historical Jesus. One of these sources is the Quelle Gospel. Quelle is the german word for source, and is often abbreviated as the Q Gospel. This gospel is imbedded in both Matthew and Luke. Whenever Matthew and Luke both agree on something, but it is not mentioned in Mark, that means it is from another source, the Q gospel. This gospel doesn't really exist, or is not known to humans today though. It is hypothetical and intangible.…
