Day 9, Luke 3
By way of recap, with added detail, Luke 3 covers some of the same ground as Mark 1.
We see the fearless commitment to truth of John the Baptizer. We see the promise of his forerunner ministry. We see the godless political system run for the sake of the powerful at the expense of the ordinary people.
And we see again the clear demonstration that Jesus is the human form of the Triune God.
Finally, Luke gives us the genealogy of Jesus through Mary, all the way back to Adam (although he doesn’t list every step). This shows the historicity of Jesus and fits Luke’s purpose to record Jesus as the Son of Man.
Now your genealogy flows from this river of life: you too are a son or daughter of God.
Have a great day!
Mark.
