2.39 Conflict and Transfiguration




History in the Bible show

Summary: Jesus' mission to Galilee does not go well. The Pharisees attack him for working wonders on the sabbath. Jesus spars with the Jewish factions. Jesus attacks the Pharisees for their petty legalism. Modern interpretations of these accounts hold them to reflect the situation when the gospels were written, projected back into the time of Jesus. Jesus' Galilean ministry concludes with his Transfiguration, where he stands between Moses and Elijah, and the voice of God again declares that Jesus is his son.
