Luke 4:31-44

Luke 6:1-26

This episode continues the discussion with the Pharisees as Jesus goes through two scenarios of healing on the Sabbath. After this, he then appoints the twelve apostles and names them. Once this occurs, Jesus conducts a sermon on a plain, and he discusses "The Beatitudes" and discusses "The Woes."

Luke 5:17-39

In this episode, we see Jesus healing a paralytic while the Pharisees question his authority. Jesus clearly shows his authority for all to see. In the middle of this episode, we see Jesus meeting Levi and asking him to be his disciple. We see how Levi follows, and he invites them over for dinner alongside other tax collectors and Pharisees. They then question Jesus about fasting, so Jesus tells them why fasting is not needed for his disciples. He then finishes this chapter by discussing how old traditions do not apply to new traditions. This is a representation about how the Old Covenant and Old Laws cannot be mixed with the New Covenant and New Laws.

Luke 5:1-16

In this episode, we see that Jesus goes to the Lake of Gennesaret as he recruits the first disciples. He does this after performing a miracle and telling Simon Peter that he will be a fisher of men. After the initial disciples start following him, we then see that Jesus goes to heal a leper. We see how the crowd reacts and his fame builds during this process.

Luke 4:31-44

In this episode, Jesus performs many miracles. We see how he will heal a man from an unclean demon, and we see a brief introduction to Simon and his mother, which will be expanded on in later chapters. Additionally, we see how Jesus heals many while still taking the time to be intentional. He makes it clear that his purpose is to be with all people, not just a specific group of people in a specific town.

Luke 4:1-30

Luke 4 begins with Jesus fasting in the wilderness while being tempted by the devil for 40 days. He shows his authority and knowledge as he prepares for his ministry. Once the period ends, he returns to Galilee with the power of the Spirit as he intends on teaching in synagogues. The first instance that we see of this in the Bible, Jesus recites Scripture and states that he has fulfilled Scripture in this moment. The crowd is not pleased with this information, and they intend on killing him, but he escapes through the divine intervention of the Spirit.
