Text: Luke 4: 20-22

READING OF THE SCRIPTURES

1. This was a common practice in synagogues.

2. There was great significance in the public reading of the Scriptures.

Three things may be noted:

a. Focus

It gave focus for the worship at the synagogue.

b. Faith

The faith of the worshippers could be further encouraged and strengthened.

c. Fellowship

A sense of spiritual fellowship can take place as the Scriptures are read.

IN ADDITION

1. Fixing their eyes on the Lord Jesus

a. He must have read the Scriptures very well.

b. All eyes were fixed on the Lord Jesus.

c. They expected Him to make some good comments on the text read.

2. Fulfilment

a. The Lord Jesus made a comment that would not be easily forgotten.

“Today this Scripture is fulfilled in your hearing.” Luke 4:21

b. This was an astonishing statement.

i. The Lord Jesus was saying that the Spirit was upon Him.

ii. He would be seeking to fulfil all the words of the Scripture.

3. Feelings were mixed

a. All bore witness.

b. They marvelled at what the Lord Jesus had just said.

c. But there were some who were sceptical.

“Is this not Joseph’s son?” Luke 4:22

d. These saw the Lord Jesus as:

i. The son of Joseph.

ii. He was the son of a carpenter.

iii. They could not accept how the Scriptures could be applied to Him!
