Episode notes
Different Gospel Perspectives Align
- Matthew focuses on the twelve apostles while Luke zooms out to the wider group, so differing numbers (12 vs 72) can both be true.
- The authors had different aims, not a contradiction.
Proclaim The Kingdom Nearness
- Tell towns that the kingdom of God has come near when sharing the message of Jesus.
- Act as ambassadors bringing the kingdom's benefits and truth to those far from it.
Jesus Speaks Outside Time
- Jesus says he saw Satan fall like lightning, a statement interpretable by looking at Isaiah, Ezekiel, or Revelation.
- As God outside time, Jesus can speak of future events in past tense.
