The beginning of the ministry in Galilee

  • The fulfillment of Isaiah's prophecy

    Matthew 4:13–16 reports Jesus’ return to Capernaum in Galilee and interprets it as the fulfilment of Isaiah’s prophecy about light shining in the territories of Zebulun and Naphtali. Matthew, the only evangelist to make this connection, demonstrates that Jesus is indeed the foretold Messiah. John will return to the theme of light in his prologue. This episode is dated to February–March 31.

    Joshua 19.27 (King James Version) :
    And turneth toward the sunrising to Beth-dagon, and reacheth to Zebulun, and to the valley of Jiphthah-el toward the north side of Beth-emek, and Neiel, and goeth out to Cabul on the left hand,

From the second to the third Passover festival

  • The parable of the lamp under a bushel

    The parable of the lamp under a basket teaches Jesus' disciples to let their spiritual light shine by living exemplary lives. This means living in a way that strengthens the divine light and encourages others to do likewise, drawing inspiration from the Gospels.

    Mark 4.21-23 (King James Version) :
    And he said unto them, Is a candle brought to be put under a bushel, or under a bed? and not to be set on a candlestick?For there is nothing hid, which shall not be manifested; neither was any thing kept secret, but that it should come abroad.If any man have ears to hear, let him hear.

  • The parable of the lamp under a bushel

    This article analyzes the parable of the lamp under a basket, explored in the Gospels. It emphasizes the importance of divine light for the disciple, showing how the Messiah Jesus uses this metaphor to illuminate divine truth and urge the disciples to be visible witnesses to their faith, while themselves remaining illuminated by the light of Christ.

    Luke 8.16-18 (King James Version) :
    No man, when he hath lighted a candle, covereth it with a vessel, or putteth it under a bed; but setteth it on a candlestick, that they which enter in may see the light.For nothing is secret, that shall not be made manifest; neither any thing hid, that shall not be known and come abroad.Take heed therefore how ye hear: for whosoever hath, to him shall be given; and whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he seemeth to have.

From the 3rd Passover to the start of the final week

  • Jesus the Messiah challenged after a miracle

    In Jerusalem, after healing a mute demoniac, Jesus the Messiah is challenged by opponents who attribute his power to Beelzebul and demand another sign. He answers with logical and spiritual arguments, cites the sign of Jonah, redirects a word of praise toward obedience to the Word, and concludes with a metaphor about the inner light. This discourse, reported only by Luke (11.14-36), illustrates two opposite attitudes toward the Messiah: authentic faith and unbelieving rejection.

    Luke 11.27 (King James Version) :
    And it came to pass, as he spake these things, a certain woman of the company lifted up her voice, and said unto him, Blessed is the womb that bare thee, and the paps which thou hast sucked.

Miracles

  • Healing of the man born blind

    Jean 9.1-12 relate la guérison par Jésus d'un homme aveugle de naissance, démontrant les œuvres divines. Jésus utilise de la boue pour guérir, rappelant la création dans Genèse. L'obéissance et la foi de l'homme sont essentielles à sa guérison. La surprise communautaire aux miracles souligne l'impact et la mission de Jésus apportant la lumière spirituelle au monde.

    John 9.1-12 (King James Version) :
    And as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind from his birth.And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.When he had thus spoken, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and he anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay,And said unto him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam, (which is by interpretation, Sent.) He went his way therefore, and washed, and came seeing.The neighbours therefore, and they which before had seen him that he was blind, said, Is not this he that sat and begged?Some said, This is he: others said, He is like him: but he said, I am he.Therefore said they unto him, How were thine eyes opened?He answered and said, A man that is called Jesus made clay, and anointed mine eyes, and said unto me, Go to the pool of Siloam, and wash: and I went and washed, and I received sight.Then said they unto him, Where is he? He said, I know not.
