Good Evening! Luke 2 is probably the most "famous" passage in Luke; growing up we had a tradition of reciting the first 20 verses before we opened gifts. We still do this when we celebrate Christmas with my parents & siblings. So, what do we learn about Jesus in this chapter?
Jesus is...
- From the lineage of David (vs.4-5)
- Jesus is the firstborn (vs. 7)
- Savior (vs. 11)
- Christ the Lord (vs. 11)
- The Lord's Christ (God's anointed one) (vs. 26)
- The answer to the promise of God to Simeon (vs. 26)
- Jesus is our Salvation (vs. 30)
- Light for revelation to the Gentiles (vs. 32)
- Glory to Israel (vs. 32)
- Filled with wisdom (vs. 40)
- Favor of God was on Him (vs. 40)
- Submissive to his parents (vs. 51)
Jesus grew in wisdom (mentally), stature (physically), in favor with God (spiritually), and man (socially) (vs. 52)
