Luke 4:20 “Then He closed the book, and gave it back to the attendant and sat down. And the eyes of all who were in the synagogue were fixed on Him.”
They were doubtless familiar with the passage and knew where He had stopped. They had surely heard of His teaching in other places and were waiting to hear what He had to say.
Sitting down did not prevent Him from teaching. Nowadays the speaker always stands while others sit. But then the teacher often sat while others might stand.
Heavenly Father, we give You praise today and every day. Your faithfulness is always fresh and active. You don’t sour on us and turn against us even when we have doubts and fears. Give us opportunities to serve Your great Name. In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray and praise You, Amen.
