Great video! Thanks for the background of the development of the three-year lectionary, which I find very helpful and useful. This little passage is a favorite, though, since it illustrates so neatly how Y'shua (Jesus) was aware of so much more than just what he saw and heard, as He interacted with those around Him, including knowing exactly what to say to cause faith to spring up dramatically in a listener. May God bless you and everything dear to you.
I love me a good Tridentine Mass... not the Novus Ordo. Whenever we went to Church with my grandfather, that's what we got to hear.
My 1928 Anglican Book of Common Prayer follows the one year lectionary. I also see that the LCMS hymnal has allowances for the 1 year lectionary.
It makes sense to have a lectionary that covers more of the Bible, but does doing this water-down the church seasons? Why not choose the most potent/memorable/pertinent scripture for the day?
absolute awesomeness!!!!!! Yeah, 'twould be nice to have the Wedding at Cana to link Epiphany the Day with Epiphany the season of manifestation; but your explanation of the text that we have exemplifies Epiphanyness! Thanks!
Maybe check out Zech 3:10 or Micah 4:4 to help your understanding of "fig tree." Basically, in prophetic literature, it's a metaphor for studying the Torah and waiting for the Messiah. This is what Nathaniel was doing, and he sees the fulfillment of this prophecy when Jesus tells him that he has been under a fig tree.
@jwoelmer2 : Thanks! THat was helpful and kind of makes this passage parallel to the expectant Simeon in the Temple court recognizing the Messiah in the infant Jesus --- only there, there was no fig tree but it was spelled out that he was awaiting the consolation of Israel; here, it's being "under a fig tree." Thanks!
"We believe because we hear, not because we see." (my summary, not Fisk's) Nice. This has some pretty massive implications for the Word/Faith heretics or faith healers.
