To some Jesus was not seen as the person he was, a rabbi. • The Pharisees and many people thought Jesus was the leader of a cult. Different from the Others
A change in Jesus • When Jesus had heard that Herod had killed his cousin, John the Baptist, he went into Galilee and started teaching about the Kingdom of Heaven. • Jesus started teaching in the synagogues and attracting the Pharisees
Different types of teachings • Jesus used parables and pronouncements to get his point across. • In the teachings of Jesus talks to the people with authority and does not baby the people. • Jesus speaks with urgency and uses parables and stories that the people can understand.
Opposition from the leaders • Like Moses Jesus faced great oppositions from the leaders of his people. • Jesus received opposition from the Pharisees, Scribes, and chief priests. • These people questioned Jesus on his teachings and his actions.
Jesus answers back to the leaders • Jesus would answer the Pharisees by exposing the leader’s traps. • He would sometimes respond to the leader’s questions by asking questions or make pronouncements. • Jesus would never use violence to answer the chief priests, Pharisees or Scribes.
