Читать книгу Childhood of Jesus (Stapled Booklet) - Jeffrey D. Johnson - Страница 5

The Scripture does not record for us exactly what Jesus did between the age of 12 and the beginning of his public ministry at the age of 30; however, John does tell us that “the world itself could not contain the books that would be written” about the Lord’s life (John 21:25). There are apocryphal writings, extra-biblical attempts to record so-called events in the life of Jesus. Stories include Jesus traveling to India to study yoga and Jesus, as a little boy in Egypt, making clay pigeons, touching them causing them to fly, as well as Jesus having an encounter with E. T.

The New Testament records for us that people knew Jesus, where he lived as well as who his parents were (Mat. 13:55; Mk. 6:3). Jesus grew up in a typical Jewish home, the son of a carpenter.
