Jesus as a Carpenter and His Enjoyment of It

Jesus is traditionally conceived as a carpenter, known as a tectone, which covers a range of building skills. It is likely that Jesus would have enjoyed his work as a carpenter, relishing the joy of creativity. However, it is doubtful that Jesus would have used miracles to cut short his work, as part of God's creation is allowing things to develop naturally. Jesus values the organic process of creating things that align with the goodness of the world God created.
