Mark & Luke
Is it not written: "My house will be called a house of prayer for
all nations."
"O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those
sent to you, how long have I longed to gather your children together as
a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were not willing. Look,
your house is left to you desolate."
But from now on, the Son of Man will be seated on the right hand of the
mighty G-D. |

John
You shall see heaven open, and the angels of G-D ascending and descending
on the Son of Man. Trust in G-D, trust also in me. In my Fathers house
are many rooms. I am going there to prepare a place for you.
The majority of Jesus' teachings are to do with refuting the levites authority
and introducing conceptual sketches to give the nature of what is required
of the entrant to the "Kingdom of G-D." His role as the Christ
of his time, was to keep the sacredness of G-dliness alive in the personal
spirit.
In effect, Jesus was preparing a way for a people without a spiritual centre,
(no physical temple) until the Kingdom of G-D would come of age. He was
a spiritual soreg breaker, not accepting the Herodian Temple as a legitimate
earthly model of heaven. The effectiveness of his mission testifies to his
spiritual authority and vision, meaningless unless seen within "merkavah"
precepts. |
