While teaching at the temple, the Jews were astonished at Jesus’ command of the Torah and his ability to convey it. Noticing the Jew’s amazement, he reminds them … my teaching is not my own but his who sent me. Jesus reminds the Jews and Gentiles that he comes bearing the Word of God as the Incarnate Word. He proclaims that we are called to proclaim the glory of God and not our own; he reminds his Jewish audience that Moses gave them the law and asks, why have you not kept it?
