Today’s Reading -

10/7/2019       Day 280 Luke 19:1 – 47

10/8/2019       Day 281 Luke 20:1 – 21:37

Reflection |

Today -

Chapter 19 - Zacchaeus encounters Jesus and his total life is
changed; the story of accounting of what we have done - are you
fruitful; entry into Jerusalem on a donkey; Jesus weeps over Jerusalem;
He went to the Temple and cleared the money changers - House of Prayer.

Chapter 20 - Authority to teach? What about John the Baptist?  We
don’t know - then why should I tell you? Parable of the bad tenants and
the vineyard. Sadducees - what about the resurrection? Yes it will
happen. Will the messiah be a ruler like King David - no. Jesus gives
Warnings about religious leaders.

Chapter 21 - Widow’s offering giving all that she has; prediction of
the destruction of the Temple; foretelling of persecutions and desolation of Jerusalem; Signs of the Second Coming; Jesus was
always teaching in the Temple that week.

More Luke by Mark Powell

Scholars think that Luke was written the end of the 1st century;
Luke probably had a copy of Gospel of Mark and a lost book
called the Sayings of Jesus (Q is what scholars call it).

Outline:

Chapters

1.1 - 4 Prologue - Luke hired to write this account of Jesus
1.5 - 2.52 Infancy narratives of both John the Baptist and Jesus
3.1 - 4.13 Jesus encounters John and the devil
4.14 - 9.50 Galilean ministry - Jesus calls and trains disciples,
works miracles, and gets into trouble with religious leaders.
9.51 - 19.27 Jesus and followers head to Jerusalem and learn along
the way.
19.28 - 21.38 Jesus teaches in the Temple
22.1 - 23.56 Jesus’ last supper, arrest, crucifixion, death, buried
24.1 - 53 Empty tomb - Jesus is Rizen; teaches disciples and
ascends into heaven.
