He was Teaching

As he was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath,

Luke 10:13

We often forget that although Jesus did indeed teach the Jews the true meaning of the Sabbath, Jesus did not break with all of the Jewish practices. He didn’t throw the baby out with the bathwater. He taught, in the synagogue, on the Sabbath. He didn’t have a problem with cooperating with the general practices of the Jewish people. Where he drew the line was with their misinterpretation, and misunderstanding, of the Scriptures. He resisted the man-made traditions that contradicted the literal interpretation of God’s Word.

Heavenly Father, thank You for this day. Help us always to be true to Your Word, it is wonderful! Thank You for Your Word, and its impact upon our lives. Thank You for the fact that we may know Christ, and by Him, eternal life. Thank You for Your holiness, Your love, and Your faithfulness to us. In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray and praise You, Amen.
