The life of Jesus up to the age of 12

  • The purification of Mary

    The article discusses Mary's purification after Jesus' birth, a Jewish ritual observed by Joseph and Mary at the Temple of Jerusalem. This act of devotion and humility, recounted in Luke 2:22-24, demonstrates their faithfulness to the law of Moses despite their modest financial circumstances.

    Leviticus 12.1-8 (King James Version) :
    And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a woman have conceived seed, and born a man child: then she shall be unclean seven days; according to the days of the separation for her infirmity shall she be unclean.And in the eighth day the flesh of his foreskin shall be circumcised.And she shall then continue in the blood of her purifying three and thirty days; she shall touch no hallowed thing, nor come into the sanctuary, until the days of her purifying be fulfilled.But if she bear a maid child, then she shall be unclean two weeks, as in her separation: and she shall continue in the blood of her purifying threescore and six days.And when the days of her purifying are fulfilled, for a son, or for a daughter, she shall bring a lamb of the first year for a burnt offering, and a young pigeon, or a turtledove, for a sin offering, unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, unto the priest:Noteof the first…: Heb. a son of his yearNoteshe be…: Heb. her hand find not sufficiency ofWho shall offer it before the LORD, and make an atonement for her; and she shall be cleansed from the issue of her blood. This is the law for her that hath born a male or a female.And if she be not able to bring a lamb, then she shall bring two turtles, or two young pigeons; the one for the burnt offering, and the other for a sin offering: and the priest shall make an atonement for her, and she shall be clean.

Contradictions

  • The cleansing of the Temple?

    L'article explore la divergence apparente entre Matthieu et Marc sur la purification du temple par Jésus. Matthieu présente une action immédiate tandis que Marc distingue deux journées. L'analyse révèle que Matthieu utilise une approche thématique pour montrer l'autorité de Jésus, sans contredire Marc. Il n'y a donc pas de contradiction réelle entre les récits.

    Mark 11.11-17 (King James Version) :
    And Jesus entered into Jerusalem, and into the temple: and when he had looked round about upon all things, and now the eventide was come, he went out unto Bethany with the twelve.And on the morrow, when they were come from Bethany, he was hungry:And seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came, if haply he might find any thing thereon: and when he came to it, he found nothing but leaves; for the time of figs was not yet.And Jesus answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit of thee hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard it.And they come to Jerusalem: and Jesus went into the temple, and began to cast out them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves;And would not suffer that any man should carry any vessel through the temple.And he taught, saying unto them, Is it not written, My house shall be called of all nations the house of prayer? but ye have made it a den of thieves.
