By ⋅ May 4, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

…The setting is ripe for a fight. The Sadducees are trying to spark some theological controversy. Jesus has his mind on the cross. The other religious leaders have been barking at he and his disciples for years now. Satan continues to pursue and press upon him. This begs a frustrated response. Instead, Jesus calmly and [...]
